🇵🇸❌🇮🇱 - Al-Qassam Brigades and the PIJ officially announce their responsibility of Yesterdays suicide bombing operation in Tel Aviv, Meaning the return of suicide bombing policy which stopped after 2007, This is major.

The Al-Qassam Brigades, in conjunction with the Al-Quds Brigades, announce the implementation of the martyrdom operation that took place yesterday evening, Sunday, in the city of “Tel Aviv.” The Brigades confirm that martyrdom operations inside the occupied territories will return to the forefront as long as the occupation’s massacres, the displacement of civilians, and the continuation of the policy of assassinations continue.

🇵🇸 - Though yesterdays operation failed according to Israeli media, This was still a partial success for the AlQassam Brigades, as they have found a way to breakthrough to Tel Aviv. Even though they do have previous experience in such operations, the challenge of security has changed by then as its been a long time.

This could also indicate that there are many sleeping cells in Israeli territories among 48-palestinians ("Israeli arabs"), who are around 23% of the total population in Israel.

🇮🇱❌🇮🇱 - There are field reports that the IDF has (accidentally?) air-striked a building which IDF personnel were inside in Khan Yunis.

Though, throughout this war this was fairly common, especially during its peak when 3 fronts were active (Center, North and South), just not talked about officially for obvious reasons (Censorship).
There has been countless AlQassam field reports which announced the IDF air-striking their armored vehicles in an act of the Hannibal doctrine, to avoid the capture of crew or other reasons.
There has also been IDF reservist's confessions from the times they witnessed it happen in Gaza.

In a certain scenario, AlQassam once ambushed a Merkava tank and destroyed it then waited for Reinforcements, when reinforcements arrived (2 other Merkava tanks), they destroyed one more, and Demobilized the other, in which then the IDF airforce flattened the place to get rid of AlQassams overwhelming force, and obviously destroying the tanks and any ranks of IDF around, though AlQassam was able to report this signifying that the squad has survived and returned to their bases.

🇨🇳🇵🇭⚡- A Chinese and Philippine vessel collided with each other at the Sabina Shoal.

Both sides are blaming each other for the collision which has left the Philippine vessel significantly damaged.

🇮🇱💥⁉️ - Hebrew sources:
Early reports of an explosion in Tel Aviv, in the center of the city..

Regarding the situation in Niu-York:

Over the past 24-48 hours, Russian forces have likely made significant progress inside Niu-York, capturing most if not all of the town

Reliable reports indicate that Russian forces advanced from their western bridgehead on the northern bank of a tributary of the Kryvyi Torets river, breaking through Ukrainian positions and reaching the main part of the Kryvyi Torets river from the west. They then likely crossed the river and entered the first houses of the village of Nelipivka.

They also likely simultaneously advanced from their positions in the centre of the town, up the railway line to the northernmost residential area. This essentially puts two groupings of Ukrainian forces in an operational encirclement.

The largest of these groupings is stationed in the large industrial area, which has been subjected to bombardments from FAB glide bombs. There may also be a smaller Ukrainian grouping in the remaining residential street near the industrial zone, although some reports are already suggesting that this pocket was cleared.

There are some reports that Russian forces have completely captured Niu-York, although from what I've seen, combing operations are still ongoing.

Overall, it appears that one of Ukraine's most fortified strongholds in the entire country is about to or already has fallen to the Russian army. This will pave the way for future assaults on Nelipivka and eventually Toretsk itself.

Colours for the map:
Red = Confirmed Russian control
Purple = Likely Russian control
