Extremely violent battles continue in Western Aleppo province of Syria.
The news coming out of the area is very foggy, with polarised claims on who controls what. Liveuamap (1st and 2nd images), citing rebel sources reported that HTS is now advancing in a pincer southwest of Aleppo, as well as seizing the town of Mansoura, directly west of Aleppo. If true, this would put them at the gates to the city.
Meanwhile, Pro-Assad sources (3rd image) reported that the SAA has begun a counteroffensive against the advancing HTS forces. They claimed that the SAA seized the towns of Bashatin and Al-Barqoum, as well as Az-Zarbah, Kafr Battikh, Dadikh and Jubas.
Meanwhile, Joint Russian-Syrian Air, artillery and rocket strikes are ongoing on HTS positions and logistics routes, likely resulting in significant casualties.

Syrian and Russian warplanes are currently flying over the HTS controlled city of Idlib.

Military equipment and fighters from the Syrian National Army (SNA) are amassing north of Tal rifaat in Northern Syria. It appears that they are preparing for an offensive against the US Backed SDF pocket positioned between Sal Rifaat and Aleppo, and the SAA in Aleppo, in coordination with the HTS offensive on Aleppo from the west.
The question is: will this potential offensive see results quick enough so as to reach Aleppo at the same time as the HTS. Obviously, that's if this offensive even works in the first place, which there is a strong chance that it doesn't.
Let's wait and see.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces have advanced in the Pokrovsk direction, capturing 3 more villages, and entering a 4th.
Most of this advance is old, as the first reports of advances in the yellow polygon were from around 3 weeks ago. However, this new footage confirms that the Russians were able to capture Yurivka, Pustynka and Petrivka.
Russian forces were also able to advance to Zhovte, entering the southern houses of the village. A Ukrainian tank went to meet the advancing Russian infantry, but was struck by a Russian RPG, damaging it.
+ ~20.5km² in favour of Russia

HTS rockets were launched at Aleppo a few minutes ago. They were reportedly targeting university housing.

A Ukrainian source reported that the situation in the Velyka Novosilka direction has stablised a little, ever since Ukrainian reinforcements were sent to the area.
Nevertheless, Russian forces are reportedly "slicing through Ukrainian defences" between Novodarivka and Rivnopil, and are slowly moving towards Rozlyv.

Hardly anyone is talking about Terny, but some of the fiercest battles are occurring in the northern part of the village. After some small Ukrainian counterattacks, the Russians are back on the offensive and are assaulting Ukrainian positions in the basements of the remains of houses. There are heavy losses on both sides.

Syria and Russia have renewed their airstrikes east of Idlib a few minutes ago, with airstrikes being carried out on reported HTS positions and movements in the vicinity of the towns of Al-Nayrab and Sarmin.

Probably targeting something in the open, like an air defence installation or military convoy. We'll probably get footage of it in the next 24 hours.
