The IDF released footage showing two of the Israeli airstrikes on a hill in the Ali Al-Taher area of southern Lebanon yesterday. They stated that they were targeting Hezbollah military infrastructure, including underground infrastructure.

Ukrainian forces have recaptured the village of Varachyne, Yunakivka direction, Sumy Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~62.
Total land area: ~0.30km².

(Note: This advance likely happened weeks ago, but was only just recently confirmed).

Russian forces have captured the village of Serebryanka, northeastern flank of Siversk, Donetsk Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~1,110.
Total land area: ~3.33km².

While this does complicate the situation for Ukraine in Siversk significantly, the tactical heights to the south of Serebryanka are more crucial.

2 strikes on a UAV control relay: 52.10944, 33.21277.

As a result of new Russian advances in the Siversk, Lyman, Dobropillya, and Bilozerske directions, the Donetsk OVA has announced mandatory evacuation orders for families with children in 38 different settlements in Donetsk Oblast since August 8.

Among these settlements are the cities of Druzhkivka and Bilozerske. Additionally, 3 villages not in their announced list are being evacuated, and the city of Lyman is now under an evacuation order for all civilians.

The purple line on the map represents the current evacuation zones, and the yellow markers represent the settlements added to the evacuation zone since August 8.

In the Dobropillya-Bilozerske direction, both Russian and Ukrainian forces have been advancing, with Ukrainian forces making significant progress towards eliminating the Russian wedge to Zolotyi Kolodyaz.

Ukrainian forces re-established control over the village of Hruzke and the gulley running southwards, before pushing into Vesele from multiple directions, where they recaptured it and the surrounding areas.

To the west, after a failed attempt at entering it, the Ukrainians attacked Zolotyi Kolodyaz from the forests to the west again and broke through to the centre of the village. Fierce fighting ensued for around 24 hours, with the Russians being forced to retreat south due to the loss of Vesele and Hruzke, as well as because of Ukraine's numerical superiority here. Those same forces then pushed south and have reached the northern outskirts of Kucheriv Yar.

Additionally, after days of positional battles, Ukrainian forces pushed east from their positions in Rubizhne, and recaptured the rest of the village, which Russia had to withdraw from due to the loss of Zolotyi Kolodyaz. From there, Ukrainian forces pushed further and captured treeline positions on the nearby tactical heights, and in the gulley leading south from Zolotyi Kolodyaz.

To the south, the Ukrainians pushed outwards from Stepy, establishing a buffer zone in the treelines on the tactical heights there, while other forces moved along the heights to Vilne, which also came under their control.

Furthermore, Ukrainian forces advanced east from Novyi Donbas, and entered the village of Nove Shakhove, capturing the western houses. They were also able to recapture the village of Ivanivka, as well as Dorozhnje, which allowed for them to re-enter Nykanorivka which is now partially in the grey zone.

Russian forces on the other hand, were able to improve their positions west of Shakhove around a week ago, advancing downhill through two parallel gulleys, capturing positions in the forest plantations there.

+ ~60.60km² in favour of Ukraine.
+ ~6.78km² in favour of Russia.
