Russian forces have captured the village of Pryvillya, Rai-Oleksandrivka direction, Donetsk Oblast (Bakhmut District).

Pre-war population: ~136.
Total land area: ~0.85 km².

The fighting for Pryvillya lasted approximately 2 months.

Russian forces have captured the village of Holubivka, Rai-Oleksandrivka direction, Donetsk Oblast (Bakhmut District).

Pre-war population: ~40.
Total land area: ~0.43 km².

The fighting for Holubivka lasted approximately 10 days.

Russian forces are coming very close to establishing full control over the Bakhmut District of Donetsk Oblast, with only around 74 km² to capture.

Russia may carry out a large-scale, combined missile and drone attack on Ukrainian energy infrastructure with Iskander-M ballistic missiles and Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles tonight, from around 12am onwards (Kyiv Time).

This is unconfirmed, however a stockpile of Iskander-Ms still exists despite their heavy usage in their last attack.

If the attack does take place, the highest threat will be to Kyiv, Kharkiv, Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhzia Oblasts.

Tu-95MS strategic bombers are also on the move from the far east to Engels-2/Olenya Airbase, where they will be equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles.

If an attack doesn't take place tonight, the next attack will involve strategic aviation.

Russian Tu-22m3 strategic bombers are currently carrying out a training mission in the area of the Baltic Sea, likely after taking off from Shaykovka Airbase, Kaluga Oblast.

Hopefully the Russian MOD will release a video of it tomorrow, so we can see if they are equipped with Kh-22/32 cruise missiles.

⚡🇺🇸🇬🇧 An additional 6 F-22 departed yesterday night from Langley AFB and deployed to Mildenhall. 6 more are expected today.

This will bring the number of Raptors in the UK to 13.

⚡🇺🇸🇬🇷🇮🇱 The four Special Operation Forces CV-22B tiltrotor aircrafts recently reported in Crete have entered the Middle-East tonight.

They likely joined the Ovda airbase in southern Israel where the 11 F-22 are already deployed.

Footage showing the moment of Ukraine's Flamingo cruise missile strike on the Votkinsk machine and ballistic missile Plant in the city of Votkinsk, Republic of Udmurtia, on February 20, 2026.

The missile targeted production workshop No. 19.

Ukraine’s SBU has detained the commander of the Air Force logistics and the head of its Zhytomyr regional office, Volodymyr Kompanychenko.

According to lawmakers, they are suspected of receiving a $320,000 bribe. Investigators believe the officials may have been involved in the embezzlement of funds allocated for building protective structures at military airfields.

Ukraine's Special Operations Forces published a new video showing recent drone strikes on valuable Russian targets in Crimea.

The following was hit:

- An S-400 surface-to-air missile launcher
- A 92N6E radar station of an S-400 system
- Auxiliary elements of an S-400 system
- A Pantsir-S1 short-range air defence system

A recent post by the Ukrainian Airborne Assault Forces confirms what I have been saying for weeks about this localised Ukrainian counteroffensive:

The goal is to delay Russian plans for their upcoming encircling maneuver against Orikhiv, which by extension protects Zaporizhzhia City for longer. The goal is not an operational breakthrough into the deep rear like I keep seeing many propaganda accounts like David D claim. This is a stabilising measure against a section of the frontline which saw rapid Russian progress, which aims to alleviate the pressure on the key tactical heights which protect Ukraine's left flank to Orikhiv.

Keep in mind, most of the accounts hyping up this counteroffensive and drawing big arrow predictions are the same people who claimed this was a fabricated counteroffensive aimed at quietly covering up supposedly "fake" Russian advances.
