As the war enters its 910th day, these are the main developments.
Here is the situation on Friday, August 23, 2024.
Ukraine said one man was killed and eight people, including a 15-year-old boy, were injured after Russia struck residential buildings in the village of Bohodukhiv in the northeastern Kharkiv region.
Two people were killed and one injured in a Russian-guided bomb attack on Ukraine’s northeastern Sumy region, according to regional prosecutors.
Ukraine’s military said Russian forces mounted 53 attacks on enemy positions on the Pokrovsk front in eastern Ukraine as they intensified efforts to seize the strategic town. Pokrovsk residents were ordered to evacuate with Russian soldiers just 10km (6 miles) from the city. Ukrainian officials said this week that about 50,000 people were still living in Pokrovsk.
Russia said its forces had taken control of the village of Mezhove, located between Pokrovsk and Avdiivka, which was captured in February.
