Recent reports from reliable sources indicate that Russian forces made another advance in Ivanivka.
After crossing the Zherebets river and infiltrating the northern part of Ivanivka, Russian forces were able to advance south, capturing the central part of the settlement. Ukraine was forced to retreat to the southern houses, where fighting is probably ongoing.
+ ~0.50km² in favour of Russia.

Recent reports from reliable sources indicate that Ukrainian forces advanced in the direction of Klishchiivka, reaching the Siversky Donets-Donbas canal.
After back and forth fighting in the forests north of the chalk quarry on the western bank of the Siversky Donets canal, Ukrainian forces once again took the initiative and pushed the Russians back across the canal. They were able to recapture the trench fortifications in these forests, as well as in the forest plantations northwest of the chalk quarry.
This advance was likely helped by the fact that Ukraine holds the tactical heights to the west, meaning that the advance was downhill, and Ukraine maintained fire control and surveillance over the area, making it difficult for the Russians to consolidate their positions. However, as the forests are heavily damaged, the cover that was previously offered has been heavily degraded. This will make it difficult for the AFU to consolidate here, meaning that we will likely see more back and forth fighting until one side pushes beyond the forests.
+ ~3.75km² in favour of Ukraine.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces marginally advanced in northwestern Toretsk.
After spearheading a new assault, bypassing the terykon, Russian forces went on to secure their southwestern flank. They were able to capture around 5 blocks of residential houses, pushing the Ukrainians to the forests near Toretsk's outskirts.
+ ~0.08km² in favour of Russia.

Recent reports from reliable sources indicate that Russian forces are continuing their advance on the eastern flank of Pokrovsk and have made further progress in two primary directions.
In the east, Russian forces were able to advance towards the settlement of Baranivka along the eastern bank of the Bychok river, approaching the village from the south. They also advanced along one main treeline, then down a perpendicular one, approaching Baranivka from the east as well. This puts any remaining Ukrainian formations in the newly formed salient at a risk of encirclement.
Meanwhile, further west, the main thrust was made. After collapsing the salient formed by the capture of Vozdvydzhenka, Russia was able to push outwards, reaching the outskirts of Yelyzavetivka, capturing multiple more treelines. They attempted an attack on Yelyzavetivka, but failed to take any positions, being repelled by Ukrainian forces defending the village. However, once Yelyzavetivka falls, Russia will be just 2.8km from the Pokrovsk-Kostyantynivka highway.

Recent reports from reliable sources indicate that Russian forces made two advances in the Pokrovsk direction.
In the east, Russia was able to advance deeper into the village of Zelene, reaching the centre of the settlement. They were also able to capture one of the two remaining treelines south of it. The other treeline is in the grey zone. As Russian forces are also pressing from the west, its likely that Ukraine will be forced to withdraw from Zelene, north to Novoukrainka to avoid being encircled.
Meanwhile, further west, Russian forces were able to advance northwest of Pishchane again, taking up new positions in the treelines and forest plantations. They are now just 900 metres from the Mezhova - Pokrovsk highway.
+ ~2.98km² in favour of Russia.

Geolocated footage and reports from reliable sources indicate that Russian forces continue to advance on a wide front west of Kurakhove.
Starting off with the northernmost advance, and moving south, Russian forces entered the village of Petropavlivka and captured the village without much resistance, raising their flag over one of the largely intact houses.
Further south, Russian forces also advanced in Shevchenko, completing the capture of the village, reaching its western outskirts. Ukraine put up a decent amount of resistance here, with most of the battles taking place for the central houses.
Closer to Kurakhove, visual confirmation surfaced showing Russian forces in control of the mechanical plant on the western outskirts of Kurakhove, officially confirming the fall of the city. Russian forces also flattened out the frontline south of the mechanical plant.
And finally, southwest of Kurakhove, Russian forces flattened out the frontline, capturing 3 more treelines, taking up positions there.
+ ~13.08km² in favour of Russia.

My thoughts on the Lex Fridman interview as a Pro-Ukrainian Zelensky critic.
Here I will cover the main points of the 3-hour long interview (which I watched in its entirety) and will provide my opinions on it. This will probably be quite long, so I understand…

Results of yesterday's Iskander-M ballistic missile strike near Pavlohrad, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The target was a Ukrainian S-300PS air defence system.
It appears that the 5N63S command post with the 30N6 illumination and guidance radar was destroyed, while the support vehicles parked next to it were hit.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is the first Russian FAB-3000 glide bomb strike on Sudzha.

I’ve just been told by a reliable inside source that pro Ukrainian accounts are once again trying to dox me. Apparently there are “a lot of people looking into me”. I thought I’d let you all know. If anyone has any information about anyone doing this, please DM me.
