A Ukraine MP said 27 Russian soldiers were killed by friendly fire during a botched retreat. The soldiers were fleeing positions in Donetsk when they were mistaken for enemy troops, per the MP. According to Mysiagin, the Russian forces assumed their troops were Ukrainians attempting to recapture territory near the Donetsk airport. This wouldn't have been the first time Russian forces gunned down their own troops. Kherson said he saw Russian forces firing rockets at the battlefield just as their soldiers were starting to retreat.

NYT reported Russian forces are performing desperate maneuvers against Ukraine's counteroffensive. "They buried quite a lot of their own guys," a Ukrainian soldier told the Times. As the invasion continues into its 18th month, incidents of friendly fire among Russian troops aren't new. Multiple other reports have documented Russian troops being plagued by friendly fire as they advanced in Ukraine, though the Kremlin rarely acknowledges these incidents. The Russian news agency Tass reported on one friendly fire incident involving Ukrainian troops in December, though there have been few additional reports of Ukrainian soldiers firing at each other.

NYT reported that one village, Neskuchne, was liberated with roughly 70 Ukrainian troops. According to the Times, Russia also has a contingent of troops known as the Storm Z unit that consists of former inmates. Ukrainian soldiers told the newspaper that reclaiming the village was a slow and painstaking process. According to the Times, Ukrainian soldiers first moved in on Neskuchne by foot before carrying out an artillery attack with small drones. More than a dozen Russian soldiers were killed and wounded, and six Ukrainian soldiers died, according to the report.
