I'm going to finish my coverage now as i have real life things to do lol. I will be back with map updates in few hours.

Unless something major happens obviously

There’s still a few Shaheds over Ukraine. One just flew from Belarus into the Chernobyl exclusion zone, there are a couple in Khmelnytskyi Oblast, while others are circling in Chernihiv and Poltava oblasts.

No map because I’m reporting from my phone.

So far during this Shahed/Geran attack, 3 drones have flown into Belarusian airspace and 1 has flown into Moldovan airspace.

Geolocated footage shows that Ukrainian forces conducted at least a partial withdrawal from the Krasnohorivka-Nevelske salient.

The positions which Ukraine withdrew to are on higher ground, but still risk being encircled when Russia cuts the road leading near Zhelanne Druhe to the northwest of this advance.

Russian forces quickly moved in after the Ukrainians, capturing the last section of the pre-war defensive line and occupying positions along the southern bank of a tributary of the Lozova river, raising their flag in one of the treelines.

They also managed to capture most of northern Krasnohorivka, pushing Ukraine to the agricultural buildings on the outskirts. There are reports that Ukraine has fully withdrawn from their remaining positions in Krasnohorivka and that the Russians hold positions in all parts of the city, except for in the westernmost part where no side is present, although this remains unconfirmed as of the time of writing.

Overall, this is likely the next step that Ukraine has taken in slowly withdrawing from the Krasnohorivka-Nevelske salient due to the risk of being cut off from supplies.

Reliable reports suggest that Russian forces have likely broken through Ukrainian defences southeast of Ukrainsk and have managed to bypass the town, reaching the next town of Hirnyk.

Following reports of intense clashes on the northern approaches to Ukrainsk, with machine gun fire and tanks being heard by civilians, reports emerged showing Ukrainian forces in full control of the town after the battles. It appeared that the initial Russian storming attempt had failed, despite reports by Russian sources that they had taken up positions in the first two low-rise residential streets.

Russia would periodically attack the northern part of the town but eventually decided on consolidating control over their positions in the treelines to the north, and focusing on clearing the Ukrainian positions in Dolynivka and Halytsynivka.

Following the fall of these two towns, Reliable reports suggested that Russian forces launched a surprise assault on Ukrainian positions in the forested areas southwest of Ukrainsk, and quickly seized control over these positions. The way that these forests are laid out allows the Russians to approach the southern outskirts of Ukrainsk without leaving the cover of the trees. This will significantly simplify assault operations on southern Ukrainsk for the Russians, as the trees provide cover from Ukrainian artillery and FPV drones allowing Russian infantry to approach the southern part of the town largely undetected.

Additionally, along the way, Russian forces managed to occupy two Ukrainian trench fortifications. These might be used as staging grounds and troop concentration points for future attacks on Hirnyk and Ukrainsk.

There are also reports that forward Russian units have entered southern Ukrainsk, captured 3 high-rise buildings and are now assaulting School no. 13 with clashes being reported in the surrounding area.

An explosion was reported in the suburbs of Dnipro. Probably a Geran attack.

Geolocated footage indicates that over the past week, Ukrainian forces have made substantial progress in Kursk Oblast, occupying more villages.

Ukraine has been trying to eliminate the salient between the tactical heights to the west from the original spearhead, and the Ukrainian positions in and around the village of Russkoe Porechnoe.

However, a Russian Garrison was still defending northern Malaya Locknya against constant Ukrainian storming attempts, leading to what was likely the bloodiest battle of the entire Kursk operation so far. Eventually, after nearly being encircled on at least two occasians, Russian forces withdrew from the village, resulting in a series of Ukrainian attacks from the flanks, resulting in the capture of not only Malaya Locknya, but also the villages of Naydenov, Novaya Sorchina, Orlovka, Mar'evka and Pogrebki.

Ukrainian forces then entered Khitrovka, establishing positions in the southern outskirts. Russian forces responded by shelling these new Ukrainian positions.

I'm planning to upload a YouTube video tomorrow covering the events that have occurred over the past week in Ukraine. I will also report on Gaza, Sudan, Myanmar, Syria, Sahel, Red Sea, Yemen, Somalia and more.

I thought it would be interesting to start making videos again. These will probably be posted weekly to my YouTube channel, so subscribe to it so you don't miss out!
