A report from the American Institute for the Study of War reported that the Ukrainian Armed Forces recently repelled positions in the north of the Kharkiv region amid fighting.

The commander of the Ukrainian drone battalion operating in the Kharkiv direction reported on June 28 that the situation in the northern Kharkiv region had stabilized and that Russian forces had not made significant progress since around June 12.

He also stated that Russian forces are using both Storm assault units, staffed by poorly trained personnel, and regular Russian units in the Kharkiv direction.

According to him, Russian forces are quickly replenishing their strength in the area, despite significant losses. Fighting in and around Vovchansk continued on June 28. It is reported that units of the Russian engineering battalion "Phoenix" are trying to remotely replace areas in the north of the Kharkiv region.

On June 11, ISW noticed a message that units of the Russian 83rd Airborne Brigade were operating near Chasiv Yar.
