Ukraine's Ukrenergo has announced additional rolling hourly power outages for household consumers. They will take place for 18 hours every day between 7am and 11pm, and are being put in place due to today's Russian missile strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure, as well as earlier attacks.

Industrial consumers will be prioritised, with power limitation schedules being put in place for them rather than outright outages.

The 2 Tu-22m3 and 1 Tu-95MS strategic bomber flights which I reported on earlier were taking part in the ongoing Russian nuclear exercises.

This video shows the two Tu-22m3s carrying out training, alongside escort crews of Su-34S and Su-27 aircraft. One of the Tu-22m3s can be seen equipped with a Kh-22 cruise missile. These training flights lasted for more than 5 hours.

Russian mapper Radov corroborates my reports on the complicated situation east of Kostyantynivka.

KAB launches to Kherson City

Correction: flying to the Komyshany area, west of Kherson.

Explosions in Kherson.

4 KABs were used on the western suburbs of Kherson. The Su-34s are returning to Crimea, where a Su-35 (currently circling near Krasnoperekopsk, northern Crimea) will escort them back to their airbase.

We will probably see a video of the strikes filmed from a Russian recon drone in the coming hours.

The Wall Street Journal, citing U.S. officials, reports that the Trump administration has lifted restrictions preventing Ukraine from using western long-range weapons to strike targets inside internationally recognised parts of Russia.

Yesterday, the Ukrainian general staff reported that Ukrainian Storm Shadow cruise missiles impacted the Bryansk Chemical Plant. While there is no visual confirmation of this yet, some Russian channels have corroborated these claims.

U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent has announced that the U.S. will implement additional sanctions against Russia. The details of this sanctions package are expected to be announced as early as this evening. Meanwhile, the EU has agreed to implement their 19th package of sanctions against Russia.

This comes as Trump and Putin's scheduled meeting in the Hungarian capital of Budapest was cancelled yesterday, with Trump saying that he was avoiding a "wasted meeting", after reports that Putin refused to freeze the frontline along its current line of contact in a phone call with Trump.

There's an increased threat of Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile launches from OTRK installations in Bryansk and Voronezh Oblasts for the next 24 hours, following new deliveries of missiles over the past few days.

Launches from these regions primarily target Kyiv Oblast, Chernihiv Oblast, Poltava Oblast, Donetsk Oblast, Kharkiv Oblast, and Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Kyiv is under attack from Russian Geran-2 drones. The target is the CHP-6 power plant.

Explosions in Kyiv. They are striking the Kyiv Hydroelectric Power Plant.

Either Ukraine or Trump is lying. We will find out in the coming days.
