Explosion in Voznesensk

Iskander on Zaporizhzhia

Approaching the city

This is a Tornado-S rocket.

It coincided with another Iskander launch from Crimea.

The Iskander-M ballistic missile which struck Voznesensk, Mykolaiv Oblast, was launched from near the village of Mazanka, northeast of Simferopol, Crimea.

The second "Iskander launch" was mixed up with Russian S-300/400 air defence activity against Ukrainian UAVs near Crimea.

Israeli media reports that shelters and protection rooms are being opened and prepared, and that several hospitals are converting underground parking lots into emergency treatment areas, in preparation for war.

I'm gonna get a bit of sleep, and will be back later to cover further developments in the Middle East and any possible Russian combined missile attack.

Good morning.

There are no major developments in the Middle East. The U.S. continues to bring aerial refuelers across the Atlantic in preparation for an attack on Iran.

There are very few Russian Geran-2/Gerbera drones detected in Ukrainian Airspace. It seems my initial prediction was right, and that the combined attack will take place tomorrow night.

Overnight, Russia once again attacked eastern Dnipropetrovsk Oblast with Geran-2 drones.

At least 7 strikes were carried out on the towns of Dmytrivka, Vasylkivka, and Mykolaivka, while another ~2 drones struck targets in the town of Chaplyne and the village of Olefirivka.

The video shows one of the strikes on Vasylkivka.

Explosions in Kharkiv City. Tornado-S strikes.

A second Tornado-S rocket impacted somewhere near the city of Balakliya.

So, what happened to all the people trying to convince everyone that that Russia is about to run out of fuel and collapse because of Ukrainian drone strikes?

Are we once again gonna forget about all the blatant lies, and just move onto the next cope?

In the Hlukhiv direction, Russian forces continued their assault operations and have made additional significant progress across the international border with Sumy Oblast.

In the east, after capturing the village of Bila Bereza, Russian forces continued advancing east through the Mykhal Forest. They established full control over the rest of the forest and began advancing further east, where they were able to capture the abandoned village of Sydorivka and the adjacent forested areas.

In the west, the Russians crossed the Kleven River (which runs along the international border) at two new points. The first was at the village of Kharkivka, where they were able to capture the settlement and take up positions in the neighbouring Stari Yary Forest. The second was at the Drohobych Forest, which they subsequently captured, linking up the two bridgeheads over the international border. From there, Russian forces advanced further north and entered the neighbouring Beskino Forest and are now attempting to reach the Dolgoe Forest.

+ ~12.30 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Khotin direction, Russian forces continued to advance and have made new progress in two different areas.

In the northwest, after an operational pause to consolidate in the gulleys of the Zolotarevsky Nature Reserve, Russian forces began storming Kindratrivka from multiple directions in an attempt to bring it back under their control

They entered the village from the northeast and east, allowing for them to quickly clear the northeastern streets and begin fighting for the central part. They also entered the southeastern streets of the village and are advancing further west from there too.

To the southeast, the Russians continued incrementally advancing from the former livestock complex and have captured additional treelines along the C-191504 Road, reaching the outskirts of Mala Korchakivka.

+ ~4.53 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Krasnopillya direction, Russian forces continued their assault operations across the international border with Sumy Oblast and have made significant progress across two different areas.

In the north, after capturing the village of Pokrovka, Russian forces began advancing south on a wide front, entering the Garkavsky Forest and the Pasieka Forest, allowing them to squeeze the Ukrainians out of the Svynoe Forest. Fighting is now ongoing for the approaches the larger Velykyi Forest.

In the south, Russian forces continued slowly expanding their zone of across around Hrabovske and have gained a foothold in the Ploskiy Forest, reaching the outskirts of the village of Ryasne.

+ ~8.34 km² in favour of Russia.

Yesterday evening, at least 2 Russian Geran-2 drones and possibly one Molniya-1 FPV drone struck the "Snihurivka" 154 kV electrical substation in Mykolaiv Oblast.

As a result, 55 settlements were left without power. Repair work is underway, and most consumers have had their power restored.
