Possible boiler north of Popasna
"Units of the "O" group, together with the forces of the LPR, cleared Toshkivka and are moving towards Myrna Dolyna, demilitarizing enemy positions with artillery."
"War correspondent Alexander Kots posted a video of the fighting on the outskirts of Lisichansk. The video allows you to clarify the "fog of war" in this sector of the front.
After the completion of the cleansing of Toshkivka, the allied forces develop an offensive against Lysychansk from the south.

"Soldiers of the "Ghost" battalion cut the road connecting Gorskoye and Lisichansk. Trophies were captured during the battle, including shots for a Bulgarian-made automatic grenade launcher, a thermal imager and an RGW RPG supplied from NATO countries."
"The LPR army officially confirms the complete encirclement of the Armed Forces of Ukraine grouping in Gorskoye and Zolotoye. Thus, June 22 will be officially considered the day of the formation of the Gorskoye-Zolotoye Cauldron. The operational encirclement took place a few days earlier."

"In the Donbass, the allied forces completed the encirclement of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Gorskoye-Zolotoye and reached the southern outskirts of Lisichansk.
Units of the RF Armed Forces liberated Pidlisne and Loskutivka, closing the ring around the APU grouping in Zolote and Hirske from the east. From the west, the 6 Cossack regiment of the LPR, advancing from the direction of Vrubivka, joined them, which knocked out Ukrainian units from the dominant heights in Rai-Oleksandrivka. Using the disorderly retreat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from Rai-Oleksandrivka, units of the RF Armed Forces reached the outskirts of Vovchoyarivka. Its capture will make it possible to establish fire control over the Seversk-Lisichansk highway from the south and actually encircle the AFU grouping in the Lisichansk-Severodonetsk agglomeration. Allied forces completed the cleansing of Ustinovka and reached the outskirts of Bila Hora. On the southern outskirts of Zolote, the suburban village of Katerynivka was taken."

Lugansk front update
No photo confirmation at this point, but if Russian/LPR troops took Volcheyarovka/Vovchoyarivka that means Lisichansk is in "operational environment" - every inch of the city is in range of artillery, and all roads, even country roads are under full artillery fire control.
Around 15 kilometers left to close the Lisichansk-Severodonetsk cauldron.

"Enemy units encircled in Gorskoye and Zolote according to the RF Ministry of Defense:
3rd Battalion - 24th Mechanized Brigade,
15th Battalion - 128th Mountain Assault Brigade
42nd Battalion - 57th Motorized Infantry Brigade
70th Battalion - 101st Territorial Defense Brigade
Brigade artillery group of the 57th motorized infantry brigade
Formation of the Nazis of the "Right Sector"
Detachment of foreign mercenaries."
"TASS reports that more than 800 enemy soldiers and officers have surrendered over the past 2 days in the Lisichansk region. Thus, in terms of the number of prisoners, the defeat of the Armed Forces of Ukraine near Lisichansk has already surpassed the loss of prisoners near Ilovaisk and Debaltseve, and apparently the figure will grow to Mariupol proportions." - waiting for photo confirmation on that.
Ukrainians of course announced successful retreat, mission accomplished, no man left behind - just like in Mariupol
"Ukrainian forces in Severodonetsk have been ordered to withdraw, according to the top regional official."
Severodonetsk: Ukrainian forces told to retreat from key eastern city
Severodonetsk is the current focus of Russia's invasion as Moscow tries to take control of the east.

Good luck with that - they will have to swim across the river, or go under heavy Russian fire to the Leninskyi bridge in the suburbs, and that bridge is in critical condition and under Russian artillery fire control
According to ukrainians, Russian army aviation is destroying roads and bridges west of Lisichansk to prevent withdrawal of heavy equipment:
"The Russians helicopters destroy the roads and bridges leading to Lysychansk
"The orcs struck air strikes at the entrance to Lysychansk. The bridge was damaged, only cars will be able to pass through it now, the truck will not pass to the city," the head of the Luhansk regional military administration Serhiy Haidai"
