A militant was shot by representatives of illegal armed formations while trying to surrender to the Ukrainian military in the Mariupol direction. This is reported by the press center of the JFO. On July 17, the militant from the 9th separate assault regiment attempted to cross the line of demarcation and move to the territory controlled by Ukraine.

Failures in the work of the Internet were observed in the occupied part of the Donetsk oblast. This was reported by the press service of the fake "Ministry of Communications", acting on the territory controlled by the militants. It was noted that the reason was the damage to the cable of the main telecommunications operator on the territory of the Russian Federation (in the Voronezh region).
Militants of the "LNR" have been torturing a man detained in the occupied Luhansk for two months. This was reported by the SBU press center. The militants forced him to confess to alleged links with Ukrainian law enforcement agencies by using psychological and physical pressure. Not having received the necessary "confessions", the militants took the hostage to the line of demarcation and, threatening with life imprisonment, "prohibited" him the entry into the CDDLO and Russia until 2023.
The "LNR" militants warned the population of the occupied Luhansk oblast that the curfew remains unchanged from 11pm to 4am. At the same time, they denied "the information that appeared in social networks about changing the curfew", calling it a fake one.
