Update from Sudan - Sennar Salient:
The RSF fired 5 artillery shells at the city of Sennar in the Sennar state of Sudan. According to local sources, they fell in Sennar's "big market" and the employees' neighborhood. Preliminary reports suggest that as many as 40 people were killed along with 100 others being injured.
The Sennar Youth Gathering said in a statement that "there is a severe shortage of medicines and medical supplies, in addition to a shortage in the "blood bank", medical staff, and emergency equipment at Sennar Hospital."
Sennar is currently surrounded on three sides by the RSF rebels following a major offensive in June-July that created a massive salient. The RSF previously attempted to get behind Sennar by crossing the Blue Nile river and reaching the town of Dinder. This worked initially, but the SAF managed to stabilize the situation by sending in reinforcements to conduct counterattacks, and propping up their defences in the area. The rainy season in the Sahel has also played a part in significantly slowing the advance of the RSF. Floods have killed hundreds of civilians over the past few weeks and significantly hampered any military operations in the country, buying the SAF time to dig in.
Following the failed attempt to encircle Sennar, the RSF resumed direct assault operations on the city, attacking the key village of Majurno and seizing trench fortifications along the canal and near the pumping station, but from what I've seen, this offensive quickly ran out of steam, and the RSF reverted to their original tactics of attacking to the rear.
They are also likely trying to sew discontent among the civilians who still remain in Sennar, and lower morale of the SAF by conducting these strikes. It is likely that in the coming weeks/months, these strikes will increase as the RSF continues to pound the SAF into submission. The SAF will probably continue to respond by conducting airstrikes on RSF positions and staging points for offensive operations, and conduct limited counterattacks on the flanks.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces have captured the main part of Krasnohorivka following a Ukrainian withdrawal.
Russian progress in western Krasnohorivka was very slow for a period of time, but following the risk of the AFU being cut off in the Nevelske-Krasnohorivka salient, Ukraine began a fighting withdrawal. The Russians appear to have exploited this and pushed the Ukrainians back significantly in Krasnhorivka, before Ukraine began putting up a bit of resistance in two westernmost streets of the city.
However, today, footage has surfaced showing Russian infantry raising their flag over the westernmost house, indicating full control over the residential area. There are still some agricultural buildings in the north that haven't been captured yet, but they will probably fall soon as Ukraine continues to withdraw from the salient.

Klishchiivka direction:
There are reports that Ukrainian forces have withdrawn from the forests southwest of Ivanivske to positions on the western bank of the Siversky Donets canal.
It is also reported that the position known as "axe" was captured by the Russians.
The fog of war is making it difficult to determine the exact situation on the ground here, but hopefully more reliable reports will come out soon to clarify it.

The IDF is once again storming the city of Nablus in the West Bank. An Israeli bulldozer was reportedly blown up by an IED just minutes ago. Violent clashes are ongoing in the old part of the city.
This comes as the IDF withdrew from the city just days ago, promising that "operation summer camps" is not over. It is possible that this is the beginning of the next stage of the operation.

Update: A "huge explosion" was reported in the old part of Nablus.
At the same time, reports are coming in that the IDF has besieged Tubas, and has announced a curfew.
I have a feeling that this is what the IDF spokesperson meant by "Operation summer camps is not over". It is possible that we will see an assault on the northern city of Jenin in the coming hours.
Hopefully more reliable information will come out soon.

So Kamala Harris genuinely thinks Poland is next...
That's if Russia can even reach the Polish border. Russia wants Ukraine and they won't go further than that. There is absolutely zero evidence that Russia will invade NATO.

Kamala Harris: "Because of our support, because of our air defence, Ukraine is an independent and free country"
1. Don't kid yourself, the US is using Ukraine. They want to keep Russia occupied to buy time for NATO to prop up their own defence industry which has been failing since the cold war. It just makes me feel even more bad for the Ukrainian people to see them have to deal with stuff like this.
2. A free Ukraine where people are being beaten up, thrown into trucks and sent to the frontline? This is why I think Ukraine needs a government change if they want a chance at holding their territory.

Ukrainian prime minister Denys Shmyhal stated at a briefing that "The Russians have practically destroyed all of our thermal power plants that were around Kharkiv, that supported Kharkiv. We are bringing in mobile boiler houses there, small, one-megawatt ones,"

Reports from Local Ukrainian sources suggest that Russian forces have advanced into northern Hirnyk.
This comes as Russian forces made a sudden localised breakthrough to the south of Ukrainsk, and are now assaulting both Ukrainsk and Hirnyk simultaneously. Hirnyk lies on the tactical heights and is strategically important as it will allow for the Russians to use it as a staging ground to get behind the Ukrainian salient southwest of Krasnohorivka.
It will also give the Russians fire control over the surrounding areas and increased surveillance over Ukrainian formations.
As for the advance itself, Russian infantry likely advanced from positions in the forests to the north and approached the northern outskirts of the town through the open fields. It is reported that the original attacks failed, but it appears that following a regrouping and a short operational pause, the Russians went on the offensive again and captured positions in the northern houses.
This was reportedly done with small groups of infantry which were scattered among the houses. This tactic works well for the Russians as it forces the AFU to use up limited artillery on small targets in multiple different places at once, unless of course they choose to use FPV drones.
More reliable reports on this advance should be released in the coming hours, so I will update you if/when that happens.

Russian forces have likely advanced into eastern Ukrainsk and taken up positions in the centre of the town.
Reports from multiple reliable indicate that this advance took place from the village of Lisivka. Following a Ukrainian withdrawal from the village, over the open fields and into the eastern buildings of Ukrainsk, the Russians followed the AFU and managed to break through their positions.
In addition to this, Russian forces have reportedly captured the local school in the south of the town and advanced to the high-rise buildings to the north.
This puts any Ukrainian formations still in the defensive fortification in the blue at a significant risk of encirclement as different Russian assault groups plan to meat up to the northwest.

Geolocated footage confirms what was already likely:
Russian forces have captured the village of Vodyane in the Vuhledar direction.
For more details on the assault and how it may have played out, check out the post I replied to.
Russian forces also captured the Pivdennodonbaska 1 coal mine and have reportedly taken the adjacent terykon (industrial waste heap).

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces advanced in the Selydove direction and captured the village of Marynivka.
This advance may have taken place around around a week and a half ago as that is when the first reports of Marynivka's capture surfaced.
Now that this village has fallen, it will simplify any future Russian offensive operations in and around Selydove, as this salient acted as a blocker to future progress to the north of the city. We might see advanced along the E50 highway in the near future once Russia consolidates control over their positions in and around Marynivka.

Geolocated footage and reliable reports indicate that Russian forces have launched a counteroffensive in Kursk Oblast and are beginning to retake their lost territory.
Starting off with confirmed Russian advances (yellow), a column of 8 Russian armored vehicles including at least 5 tanks advanced from the town of Korenevo and down the road heading south to the international border with Ukraine. They laid suppresive fire on Ukrainian treeline positions north of Snagost, before entering the village itself and firing on the houses.
Shortly after, reliable sources confirmed that the village, along with the ones to the west were recaptured by Russia.
As for likely advances, reliable sources reported that Russian forces advanced and captured the villages of Gordeevka, Vnezapnoe, Byakhovo, Viktorovka, and Apanasovka. This might have been the same mechanised assault, or it could have been a separate one from Novoivanovka and/or Kulbaki.
