You know you're doing good when NAFOs accuse you of being too Pro Russian and people like this accuse you of being too Pro-Ukrainian.

Last night, a Russian Geran-2 drone struck a reported technical floor in a high-rise building in Kharkiv City.

Today, Russian Geran drones have struck targets in Dobropillya (Donetsk Oblast), Yuzhne (Odesa Oblast), Odesa, Sumy and Kharkiv.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio characterised the war in Ukraine as a "proxy war" between two nuclear powers: The U.S. and Russia.

The IDF continues to set fire to Palestinian homes in the West Bank cities of Jenin and Tulkarm amid intensified clearing operations.

Ukrainian nationalist Sternenko:

“The logistics situation in Kurshchyna [Kursk] is rapidly deteriorating and is already critical.

I communicate with many units that work in the direction.
The logistical routes to Suja [Sudzha] are under complete enemy fire control.

The distance from the main road to Russian positions is 5-7 km, which allows the enemy to continuously operate drones along it.
The situation is worsened by the poor condition of the roads, on which it is physically impossible to drive faster than 20 km/h.
Now it will be warmer, and there will be more swamps.

All these circumstances are very favorable to the Russians. Already on the route there are dozens of destroyed equipment and vehicles. In most cases this is the work of FPV on fiber optics.

This situation significantly complicates the evacuation of the wounded, who cannot be picked up for several days, the transport of BCs, rotations, etc. This reduces the combat capability of our forces in the Kursk region.

I don't know what the higher command should do in such a situation. But if left as it is, the situation will very soon turn from critical to catastrophic.“

🇷🇺🇸🇾 - Russia plans to sign multibillion dollar contracts with Syria to maintain its bases in the country. Investments include the construction of a new port in Tartus, gas offshore concessions, phosphates mines and hydrocarbon fields in Palmyra and the construction of a fertilizer plant in Homs.

Defense Secretary of the Philippines, Gilberto Teodoro stated that “China’s increasing aggression” in the disputed waters of the South China Sea is now considered as “the greatest threat to the national security of the Philippines.”

He also said that one of the greatest external threats is “Chinese expansionism” and added that the Philippines will take measures to “counter any attempt by China to impose an air defense zone or restrict freedom of flights over the South China Sea.”

Ukraine has almost entirely pushed Russian forces out of the important village of Udachne.

Udachne was the key for Russia to enter Dnipropetrovsk Oblast from the east - a key which they have now lost.

Russian forces have established a third bridgehead on the western bank of the Oskil River.

In the southeastern part of the Kursk salient, Russian forces resumed assault operations, and have significantly expanded their bridgehead on the western bank of the Psel River.

They advanced north from their positions in the forested areas, re-entering the village of Kurilovka which was previously lost due to Ukrainian counterattacks. They captured the southern half of it, taking up positions in the houses there, before attacking west, uphill, into the forested areas.

Russian forces managed to capture positions on the edge of the tactical heights, which - if successfully resupplied - will likely allow them to expand their zone of control further west towards the smaller of the two remaining roads leading into the Ukrainian-controlled part of Kursk.

+ ~2.96km² in favour of Russia.

In Vovchansk, Ukrainian forces conducted a few counterattacks, recapturing positions in two main areas.

In the east, Ukrainian forces advanced down Khilborobva and Gorkogo streets, before branching off onto Kotsiubynskoho and Stepova streets, recapturing them.

Further west, they attacked north through the city park, seizing the ruins of a high-rise building, as well as a few nearby houses.

+ ~0.40km² in favour of Ukraine
