Another explosion in Poltava.

Reportedly it was warehouses being targeted. Likely military equipment was stored there.

Update from the Kanal district of Chasiv Yar (Part 1):

Based on the geolocated footage available, the situation remains relatively stable for Ukrainian forces, despite Russian forces consolidating control over parts of the micro-district.

However Russian sources report a different situation:
The yellow line shows what Russian sources claim the frontline is. Let's break it down:

Firstly, there was a salient created as a result of Russian forces creating two flanks inside the micro-district. On the southern flank, Russian forces seized control over three high-rise buildings, a series of garages, a few houses and the local kindergarten (No. 33).

On the northern flank, Russian forces made more significant advances, capturing the main Ukrainian stronghold in the local college (No.77), seizing 6 more high-rise buildings, the local post office, and some houses. They were also able to gain a foothold in the former Chasiv Yar Repair Plant.

(Part 2) However, this salient is now reportedly under Russian control, with battles reportedly ongoing for the St Boris and St Gleb Churches. We did see footage from around a week ago showing a Ukrainian MRAP being bombed by a drone-drop from the Russian 58th Special Purpose battalion, indicating Ukrainian control there, but it could be old footage.

If this is true, it would also mean that battles are ongoing for Oleha Koshovoho street. The goal of the Russians will likely be to advance in the buildings on that street in order to drive a wedge through Ukrainian positions in the industrial area and the remaining high-rise buildings.

Moving further north, Russian sources also claimed that they now control most of the industrial zone and captured all of the dachas. They also claimed that the two wide windbreaks on either side of the Bakhmut-Kramatorsk railway line. If true, this would help the Russians significantly in concealing their troops from drones and artillery, allowing them to carry out further assaults on the forests east of the Siversky-Donets canal.

Overall, the fog of war makes it difficult to determine who controls what in this case, but I am trying my best to show an accurate representation of the situation here in what is likely the most important battle of the war so far.

Loud explosions and violent clashes were reported southwest of Gaza city, while ambushes were reported in Al-Zaytoun.

Missile in the direction of Myrhorod, Poltava Oblast.

Explosions in Poltava Oblast

Another ballistic in the direction of Myrhorod.

Three Tu-95’s have been redeployed to Olenya airfield and are currently equipped with cruise missiles and are ready for use.

Two more Tu-95’s are heading to Engels airfield in Saratov Oblast, likely for equipment of cruise missiles.

It’s possible that we will see another large-scale missile strike tomorrow.

There likely will not be any large-scale missile strikes today.

Bruh the second I say that I get this notification:

“The activity of several Tu-95s in the western region of the Russian Federation in radio silence mode was recorded.

Information about potential threats will be provided if aircraft boards enter the launch zones.

No threats as of now.”

More Tu-95’s are now airborne

Ukrainian monitor channels estimate that there is a 40% chance of a large-scale missile strike today.

❗️Rockets are coming out of Gaza now❗️

The Tu-95’s were just conducting training.

Oh look another nafo fella claiming I’m pro Russian. What a surprise. The rest of the pro Ukrainian community is beginning to hate me more and more simply for being realistic.

I think I’ve been mass blocked by around half of nafo overnight.

Either way, more maps will come out today.

Geolocated footage indicates that Ukrainian forces continued to advance in the Lyptsi sector, gained a foothold in the village of Hlyboke and pushed the Russians back over the tributary of the Kharkiv River.

A Ukrainian BTR-4e supported the assault but was destroyed near a bridge. There isn't much information on this assault, or when it took place, but it does indicate that Ukrainian forces at least marginally advanced.

However, the fact that this is in the low-lying ground means that it isn't too significant as Russian forces control the tactical heights to the east and north and have fire control over the whole village.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces continue to slowly advance in the Kupyansk direction, this time northwest of Berestove.

Here it was likely Russian infantry which seized positions in the low-lying ground in the forest belts, while a Russian BMP-2 attempted to advance further west in the direction of Pishchane but was destroyed by the Ukrainian 77th Airmobile brigade.

Ukrainian forces still maintain control over the tactical heights to the southwest, so they will be able to sustain fire control over these positions, however Russian forces control the larger, but further away heights to the east.

The maximum advance of Russian forces was ~720m.

Recently released footage indicates that Ukrainian infantry counterattacked in the serebryanske forest, recapturing a series of trench fortifications and pushing Russian forces into the next section of the forest.

The footage is likely from the far corner of this advance, indicating that Ukrainian forces also attacked on the flanks as holding positions without doing so would be untenable.

This advance is significant as it seriously undermines Russian efforts to encircle the Ukrainian groupings to the southeast against the Siversky Donets river. It also pushes Russia further away from achieving their goal of capturing all of Luhansk Oblast.

The maximum advance of Ukrainian forces was ~2.32km.
