Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces have advanced in the Pokrovsk direction and entered the village of Dachenske.

After establishing control over the fields and treelines to the southeast of Dachenske, Russian forces began storming the livestock farms in the south of the village. After 1-2 attempts, they were able to establish control over the complex, therefore giving them a foothold in the southern part of Dachenske.

The Russians took some time to consolidate their positions before advancing into the main, residential part of the settlement, and begun pushing the Ukrainians back to the highway. Ukraine put up a decent amount of resistance here, holding onto most of the houses, but was forced to slowly roll back to the highway, before being pushed into the fields to the west of the village.

It's possible that Ukraine still maintains a presence in the eastern houses, however. But due to the presence of the Solonyi river, if they are still there, they likely won't be for long.

+ ~8.05km² in favour of Russia.

A recent report by the Ukrainian source "Deepstate" suggests that Russian forces have likely advanced in the Velyka Novosilka direction and encircled Ukrainian troops in Makarivka.

Russian forces have likely advanced from positions in the treelines west of Storozheve, and linked up with the small Russian foothold on the western bank of the Mokri Yaly River, encircling Makarivka and the nearby fields and forests.

The nearby village of Storozheve is also at risk of being encircled.

Recent reports from multiple reliable sources suggest that Russian forces likely advanced in Dvorichna and reached the town centre.

After establishing control over the southern part of the town and partially securing their western flank, Russian forces began pushing north towards the 3-story buildings. They were likely able to entirely push the AFU from one of the streets here, forcing Ukraine to organise a defence in the town centre.

Russian forces have reportedly advanced in the Velyka Novosilka direction, taking up new treeline positions and are now within 300 metres of the last road that resupplies Velyka Novosilka.

If true, Velyka Novosilka is now officially in an operational encirclement as this last road can no longer be used.

An explosion was reported inside a South Korean military base in the southern South Korean city of Gimhae. There are reports of 3 injuries. The cause is not yet known.

Officials are now saying it was most likely machinery malfunctioning. Nothing related to North Korea or any potential sabotage it seems.

Russian air defence is active over Donetsk City. Ukraine is attacking the city with HIMARS MLRS again.

This is a big attack. Lot's of air defence activity, and lot's of rockets.

Air defence is also active over the neighbouring city of Makiivka.

9 HIMARS were launched. There are still 3 more that can be launched.

Locals reported explosions.

The missile danger is over

There are reports of HIMARS impacts in the Kalininskyi district of Donetsk City.

It was an oddly quiet night in Russia. Only one Ukrainian UAV was recorded in Russian airspace, and it was most likely destroyed.

Clarification of the situation in Dachenske.

Ukrainian forces maintain control over the intersection with the E50 highway to Pokrovsk.

They also control the houses north of the street that runs through the village, but have their backs against the Solonyi River.

According to a new map by @Suriyak_Maps, the rebel RSF forces have launched a decent-sized offensive in the Al-Jazirah state of Sudan. The attack took place from Dalmahidi and Al Sharif Yaequb. They were reportedly able to recapture Wad Al-Abyad, Mahila, Karjaba, Umm Al-Qura, Babanusa & the villages 33, 34 & 36 thus reversing the recent SAF advances on this front.

The SAF was previously advancing towards the key city and logistical hub of Wad Mani. The RSF obviously realises the strategic importance of Wad Mani, and are throwing whatever they can at maintaining a buffer-zone around the city.

The recapture of Wad Mani would risk encircling RSF troops who are attacking towards the city of Sennar to try to reconnect with the cut off RSF troops in the Sennar, White Nile and Blue Nile states, and could also help roll back the frontline north along the Blue nile river towards the capital Khartoum.

Possible scenarios:

Update from Chasiv Yar.

Both sides are reportedly making progress in the city. Ukraine was apparently able to complete the capture of the main building in the refractory plant, pushing the Russians to the smaller, less defended buildings.

Meanwhile, Russian forces have reportedly bypassed the plant, capturing more residential streets in the northern part of the city.

Extremely heavy fighting continues between RSF and SAF soldiers in the Sudanese city of Omdurman (opposite the capital Khartoum).

The SAF has been on the offensive here for months and is slowly retaking the city, block by block.
