Ukrainian forces recorded 206 combat clashes with Russian troops on Nov. 2, according to a morning report from the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The data, released at 08:00 on Nov. 3, breaks down the engagements across ten distinct fronts, identifying where Russian forces launched ground assaults and airstrikes.

The heaviest fighting occurred on the Kostiantynivka front, where Russian forces executed 21 attacks. These engagements took place near Kostiantynivka and extended toward Druzhkivka, Novoselivka, Raiske, Sofiivka, Kucheriv Yar, and Vilne. On the adjacent Pokrovsk front, Russian units conducted 13 attacks, attempting to advance toward Molodetske, Novopavlivka, Chernihivka, Svitle, Dobropillia, Myrne, and Serhiivka.

Activity was also sustained in the northern and eastern sectors. On the North Slobozhanshchyna front and in the operational zone within Russia's Kursk Oblast, Russian forces carried out eight assaults. They supplemented these ground attacks with two airstrikes that used five guided aerial bombs. Additionally, they launched 58 strikes on Ukrainian positions and settlements, with four of those strikes originating from multiple-launch rocket systems. On the South Slobozhanshchyna front, Ukrainian troops repelled 10 Russian attacks in the areas of Izbytske, Hrafske, Vovchanski Khutory, Okhrimivka, Shabelne, Chuhunivka, and Ambarne.

The Lyman front saw nine Russian attacks directed toward Nove, Kolodiazi, Lyman, Zarichne, and Dibrova. Ukrainian forces stated they repelled attempts to break through their defenses in these sectors. On the Huliaipole front, Russian forces conducted seven attacks, attempting to move toward Uspishne, Ternuvate, Hirke, and Charivne. The Kupiansk front recorded three Russian attacks aimed at Radkivka, while the Orikhiv front saw a single attack toward Chervona Krynytsia.

Russian forces attempted to advance in the area of Yampil on the Sloviansk front, which Ukrainian forces repelled. No offensive actions were reported on the Kramatorsk, Oleksandrivka, or Prydniprovske fronts. The General Staff noted that there was no evidence of offensive Russian groups forming on the Volyn and Polissia fronts.

The report provides a snapshot of the battlefield situation as of the morning of Nov. 3. It details specific village names and attack counts to map the pressure points along the line of contact.
