russian invaders are increasing the number of torture chambers within the temporarily occupied and seized areas of Ukraine.

The relevant statement was made by the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook.

"The newly-established torture chamber has been spotted in the southeastern part of the Zaporizhzhia region's Enerhodar. Individuals with pro-Ukrainian views are brutally tortured there, as well as those who refuse to meet the requirements of local occupation authorities," the report states.

In the past 24 hours, Ukraine's Air Force has launched six strikes on russian personnel and military equipment clusters.

Meanwhile, russian troops launched 19 air strikes and opened fire with multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) 26 times.

The threat of russian missile strikes is persisting all over Ukraine.

Over the past day, russian invaders have opened fire on the eastern Sumy region's Starykove, Volfyne, and Solianyky; and the Kharkiv region's Strilecha, Hlyboka, Starytsia, Vovchansk, Kolodiazne, Dvorichna, Ternova, etc.

In the Kupiansk and Lyman directions, russian troops made unsuccessful attempts to break through the defense of Ukrainian forces. The enemy launched artillery strikes on the Kharkiv region's Vesele, Hrianykivka, Vilshana, Krokhmalne, Berestove, Dibrova, and Andriivka; and the Luhansk region's Novoiehorivka, Nevske and Bilohorivka.

In the Bakhmut direction, russian occupiers continue attempts to seize the town of Bakhmut. Ukrainian defenders repelled enemy attacks near Klishchiivka and Ivanivske.

In the Avdiivka, Marinka, and Shakhtarsk directions, russian troops conducted unsuccessful offensive actions towards the Donetsk region's Kamianka, Nevelske, Avdiivka, and Marinka.

According to the available data, russian invaders set up a new military hospital in one of the buildings in the eastern part of the Luhansk region's Svatove. About 30 seriously wounded russian soldiers have been received there in recent days.

The General Staff also noted the increased number of those who received serious injuries in the russian military. The number of evacuation trips to russia rose from two to three per week. Local residents, having at least some medical knowledge, are involved in taking care of the wounded.
