Russian forces have broken through to Krasny Liman in the Donetsk People’s Republic, according to the Telegram channel Operatsiya Z: Voenkory Russkoy Vesny. The report, which also cites Ukrainian sources including the analytical platform DeepState, states that the area between Torskoye and Krasny Liman is now considered a «grey zone».
Assault units of the Russian army have launched an offensive on the city from the east. Krasny Liman serves as a critical transport hub for supplying Ukrainian troops in Seversk and the Kramatorsk-Slavyansk agglomeration.
Losing control of Krasny Liman would cut Ukrainian forces in Seversk off from both ammunition and secure retreat routes, making a rapid withdrawal from the city increasingly likely.
In late September 2025, Russian troops encircled Ukrainian units positioned between Krasny Liman and Seversk and seized key high ground around the city. Ukrainian command attempted to reinforce its defenses by deploying the 63rd Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. However, the situation for the Ukrainian grouping continues to deteriorate under sustained Russian airstrikes.
