The IDF military operation, dubbed "Operation Five Stones" continues in the northern West Bank.

In the town of Qabatiya, a Palestinian fighter affiliated with Hamas threw an IED at Israeli infantry. Israeli soldiers responded with fire, killing the militant and seized a number of other explosive devices in his car.

In the city of Tubas, the local armed group "Tubas Battalion" claimed that it detonated multiple IEDs against IDF military vehicles and fired on Israeli soldiers with small arms.

In the towns of Tamun and Aqaba, a large-scale arrest campaign has been carried out. The mayor of Tamun is among those arrested.

In addition, the IDF carried out raids on the towns of Al-Yamoun and Jaba

Earlier today, 2 Russian IL-76MD cargo planes landed at Rostov Airbase. The cargo consists of Iskander-M ballistic missiles, which will be delivered by road to OTRK installations near the city of Taganrog, Rostov Oblast.

There is an increased threat of Iskander launches from here over the next 36 hours.

In Lyman forest the situation finally got a bit easier. Either the Russians understood that it will be very hard to move further from their current positions, or they started saving up resources for a bigger attack.
In general, for both sides it’s very hard to move without being spotted, even in the forest, because of the total prevalence of drones on both sides. In particular, Ukrainian drones are the ones mostly preventing Russian successes.
It looks like the Ukrainian command understands that fighting in the forest is much more convenient than fighting for Lyman city, which confirms my suspicions of the fact that urban warfare is not convenient anymore against infiltration tactics.

Also important to keep in mind is that currently, supply for Ukrainian forces trying to cross the Siverskyi Donets River into Lyman is hell.

Despite that, significant Ukrainian reinforcements appear to have deployed there.

Israel's new military operation in the northern West Bank continues into its second day.

The IDF continues carrying out raids in settlements they deployed to earlier, and have also begun raiding the city of Qalqiya, Nablus, the eastern suburbs of Tulkarm, and the village of Kafr Thulth.

Additional widespread arrests have been made in various different settlements, and road closures remain in place, limiting Palestinian movement. IDF military bulldozers also demolished additional streets in the town of Tamun.

The centre of these operations remain in the city of Tubas, where hundreds of IDF soldiers have been deployed.

The professional think tank with so-called experts working for it has resorted to the linear warfare argument.

They are openly lying about how attritional wars are fought, but people will just eat it up.
