Occupation of the village of Mali Shcherbaky in the Orikhiv direction: denied by the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The AFU officially denies the loss of Mali Shcherbaky, as previously claimed by Russia.

Vladyslav Voloshyn, spokesperson for the Southern Defence Forces, asserts that the AFU has not lost "a single position" in the Orikhiv direction.

"This is a tense area. The enemy is trying to break through in the direction of Stepove and Lobkove. Mali Shcherbaky is under the control of the Ukrainian Defence Forces. Perhaps the enemy wants to achieve some success, so they claim in their media that they have taken control of Mali Shcherbaky, but this is not true. They have no victories at all in this area," emphasized Voloshyn.
