According to information from the front, Russian troops have reached a new line in the Kurakhovo-Selidovsky direction and entered the city of Gornyak. According to preliminary data, units of the Russian Armed Forces have consolidated their positions on the northeastern outskirts of this settlement, which was previously under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Gornyak is a small town with a population of over 11 people, located on the territory of the DPR. It has an important strategic significance, as it is located on one of the key defense lines of the Ukrainian forces. The advance of Russian troops into this town could have a serious impact on the further course of military operations on this section of the front.
