Russian forces now control approximately 83% of Hulyaipole.

In the Novopavlivka direction, Russian forces continued their assault operations and have advanced in three different areas.

In the west, Russian forces advanced in the northwestern part of Ivanivka and have begun attempts at consolidating in part of Ukraine's main defensive line to the north. They also improved their positions in the southern streets, reaching the village centre. Currently, the rest of Ivanivka is in the grey-zone, with both Russian and Ukrainian forces holding overlapping temporary positions throughout it in a very fluid and dynamic situation.

In the east, Russian forces continued to slowly advance southwest of Novopavlivka. They improved their positions north of the fortified forest and captured new positions in the forested areas there.

+ ~1.99 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Dobropillya direction, both Russian and Ukrainian forces have advanced over the last 10 days, with Ukrainian forces making significant progress in a series of coordinated counterattacks.

North of Pokrovsk, Ukrainian forces launched a mechanised assault towards the northwestern outskirts of Pokrovsk. They managed to recapture the two pig farm complexes and a series of treeline positions, however the attack on the outskirts of the city, which involved Abrams tanks from the 425th Separate Assault Regiment "Skala", was ultimately repelled.

In Rodynske, Ukrainian forces have resumed their assault operations in the city. They advanced east from their strongpoints and entered the southeastern streets, outflanking Russian positions in the city centre. They cleared part of the low-rise residential area there and entrenched in the western part of the southeastern high-rise micro-district, which the Russians are now bombing with FAB glide-bombs. They also entrenched in a number of 3-story-buildings in western Rodynske.

Northeast of Rodynske, Ukrainian forces have made significant progress over the last 10 days. They recaptured the southern part of Suhketske and broke through to the Krasnolymanskaya Mine, establishing full control over this crucial stronghold. Building on their momentum, they advanced further east to one of the ventilation shafts for the mine, capturing it and the surrounding areas. Russian forces subsequently carried out a massive, mechanised assault consisting of around 40 heavy and light vehicles of various types on the ventilation shaft, which was repelled with heavy losses.

In Myrnohrad, Russian forces continued finalising their clearing operations in the central and northern parts of the city. They managed to complete the capture of the city centre and secured the rest of the residential areas to the west. They also continued clearing the northern streets, consolidating in the low-rise residential streets south and southeast of the cemetery.

+ ~10.84 km² in favour of Ukraine.
+ ~0.79 km² in favour of Russia.

David is so annoyed at me for reporting about the reality in Ukraine that he is now openly lying about me, beyond just speculative opinions. The only time I ever spoke to him through a call was in a public space prior to him blocking and condemning me. I have never had a private call with him, and the fact that he is lying to himself and others shows how desperate he is.

It seems like every couple of weeks he has another little meltdown, calling me Pro-Russian and the closest friend of @.squatsons. But what's funny is that he can't even get his info about me correct.

David is an American boomer, indoctrinated since birth, who is now spouting his nonsense online to an ever-shrinking audience of comfort-media-consumers. He's someone that you should never take seriously, unless you like being lied to.

But don't worry, his grift will be over soon. Any form of reputation he still has will be lost once this war is over, as people realise that he has lied about everything. I have a whole catalogue of stupid things he's posted that have aged terribly and contradicted earlier statements he's made. Perhaps I should post them at some point?

Using an old photo from when I was 15 to try and discredit my work isn't a good look, Deepstate!

Although I'm sure the SBU would be very proud of your keyboard warrior activity.

I'm aware of the missile attack. I was busy earlier, but I'm working on a map now. There may be more missiles later on.

3 Tu-95MS carried out launch maneuvers around 10 minutes ago, likely from southern Nizhny Novgorod Oblast.

If the launches were real and not simulated, missiles should enter Ukrainian airspace in the next 2 hours.

Kyiv was under attack from missiles earlier, meaning any Kh-101s will likely fly to attack the city too.

Currently airborne:

2 Tu-160s from Ukrainka Airbase, Amur Oblast.
4 Tu-95MS from Belaya Airbase, Irkutsk Oblast.
3 Tu-95MS from Olenya Airbase, Murmansk Oblast.

Update:

5 Tu-95MS are confirmed airborne from Belaya Airbase.

This means that there are 10 strategic bombers in total in the air.

However, the initial launch maneuvers carried out by 3 Tu-95MS were probably simulated with electronic warfare.

Launch maneuvers were carried out by 2 Tu-160s and 5 Tu-95MS from Kalachyovksy District, Volgograd Oblast, around 10 minutes ago.

These launches were likely real, meaning that Kh-101 cruise missiles are expected to enter Ukrainian airspace in the next 80 minutes.

Here's the current missile map. Sorry for the wait, I took a while confirming some of the info.

So far, the CHP-4, CHP-5, and CHP-6 power plants in Kyiv, along with Ozerne Airbase in Zhytomyr Oblast have been struck by Kinzhal, Iskander-K and Iskander-M missiles.

Before all the hype gets out of hand, the rest of this missile attack will be nothing special.

Likely around 20-30 Kh-101 cruise missiles will target Ukraine, mainly flying to energy infrastructure in Kyiv (e.g. Trypillya, CHP-4, CHP-5, CHP-6, 750 kV, Bila Tserkva CHP, etc). Other targets may be hit in other regions.

Just because there are 10 strategic bombers airborne, it doesn't mean there will be 100 missiles or whatever.

If the launches took place when I think they did, we should see missiles enter Ukrainian airspace via Sumy Oblast in the next 20-25 minutes.

They will probably fly in groups of 3-4 missiles, with each 1-2 groups flying one after another.

Oh damn, I just realised I passed Scott in subscribers.

I'll never forget how he first promoted my channel and helped get me my first 100 subs in mid-2024. His help has done so much for me and my channel.

No missiles are detected yet. They should arrive in the next 10 minutes.

Large amounts of Geran-2 drones are flying to Kyiv from multiple different directions.

This is the second wave of drone attacks on the city.
