Units of the 4th Guards Mechanized Corps push forward after breaking enemy lines near Kalinovka village, aiming for Kamyshevakha and Artemovka. German troops defend key positions in Kalinovka and around farmstead Alekseevskiy, while flanking forces from the 31st and 3rd Guards Rifle Corps, backed by tank brigades, maneuver on the right. The 140th Tank Brigade gathers in Elizavetinskiy to swing around Alekseevskiy and hit the western edge of farmstead Semenovskiy.
