Following from Roscosmos via Facebook- automatic translation so not
perfect English but I haven't bothered to convert it fully because the
meaning is clear enough:

"On 24 August, conducted routine correction orbit of the international
space station. Estimated Service Ballistiko-Nav Centre to ensure the
mission control center engines transport cargo spacecraft progress
MS-02 " were included in the 10:30 MSK. The time of the work of the
engines was 728,6 sec. As a result of the iss got speed 1,3 m / sec.
After the implementation of the maneuver, the average height of flight
station has increased by 2,3 km and 404 km.
The purpose of correction has been the formation of ballistic
conditions for the descent from orbit manned vehicle the soyuz TMA-20
m ", SCHEDULED FOR 7 September 2016, and the subsequent launch of a
space ship " Soyuz Ms-02 ", Scheduled for 23 September 2016."
