On June 28, 197 combat engagements occurred, with Russian forces focusing offensive efforts in the Sloviansk, Pokrovsk, and Huliaipole directions. Separately, Russian strikes on Ukrainian territory resulted in civilian casualties. One person died and seven, including two children, were injured in Kharkiv region's Zmiivska community.
