In April, defense forces expelled the invaders from the northern regions of Ukraine, and in the fall they deoccupied parts of the Kherson, Nikolaev and Kharkov regions.
On June 5, 2023, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense announced that in some areas the defense forces had switched to offensive actions. Later there were reports of the de-occupation of settlements in the east and south.
In October, the occupiers launched an offensive near Avdiivka, trying to surround the city. The most intense fighting is now taking place there and in the Liman-Kupyansk direction.
