CENTCOM released footage of their 12th consecutive night of airstrikes against Iran, which they claim targeted Iranian maritime capabilities, missile and drone storage facilities, coastal surveillance sites, and air defence assets.

Day 15 of Russia's new strike campaign on port infrastructure of Odesa and Mykolaiv Oblasts:

Today, Russia launched at least 5 Kh-59/69 cruise missiles, 2 Oniks supersonic cruise missiles, 3 Banderol jet-drones, 13 Geran-3/4 jet-drones, and 34 Geran-2/Gerbera drones.

Ukrainian air defence was able to shoot down 2-3 of the Kh-59/69 cruise missiles, which were targeting the Odesa Port. Additionally, both of the Oniks cruise missiles missed their targets at the Odesa Port due to their low accuracy, with one impacting in an open area and another falling in a river (as seen in the attached video). Furthermore, 1 out of the 3 Banderol jet-drones was shot down (which also targeted Odesa Port).

The primary targets were the Odesa and Chornomorsk Ports. Today and yesterday, Russia has significantly increased the number of Geran-2 drones used, while today they slightly decreased the number of Geran-3/4 jet-drones.

Russia launched at least 34 Geran-2/Gerbera drones and 13 Geran-3/4 jet-drones at Odesa Oblast during the night.

Recently, a large number of accounts have been claiming that Ukraine successfully encircled a large number of Russian troops north of Lyman, as a part of their ongoing counterattacks that began in mid-April.

This is not true, and originated from a single small Ukrainian Telegram channel that, somehow, managed to mix up Ukrainian artillery and MLRS shelling with Russian KAB glide-bomb strikes on Sentinel-2 satellite imagery, resulting in him drawing incredibly inaccurate and ludicrous maps from this assumption that Russia was striking Ukrainian positions in this area.

In reality, there is no encirclement. In the area where he claimed the encirclement occurred, there is still another 11 km (including grey-zones) between Ukraine's northern and southern flank. While Ukraine's counterattacks allowed them to retake important areas here, they have significantly slowed down in recent weeks, with Russia even being able to retake some previously lost positions near Zelena Dolnya. Furthermore, Russia has resumed assault operations in the Stavky and Drobysheve areas, which has resulted in a difficult situation for Ukrainian forces holding the southern flank.

As usual, the same accounts that copy/paste and blindly trust the best-looking maps for Ukraine from Telegram are spreading misinformation, while gaining thousands of likes and hundreds of thousands of views per post, and receiving exactly zero backlash from the so-called "disinformation fighters" in the Pro-Ukrainian community.

High Iskander-M/Oniks threat from Crimea for Odesa

Possible launch.

Edit: no missiles were detected

Gonna take some time off this evening to avoid burnout. Working almost all day 7 days a week can be exhausting 😅

Nice. This guarantees something big will happen. 🍿

New high resolution satellite imagery reveals that four housing units for U.S. soldiers were destroyed and two others damaged in an Iranian ballistic missile strike on Ali Al Salem Airbase in Kuwait.

If American soldiers were inside the units at the time, then there were definitely casualties

+ air defense activity was noted in and around Tehran

ℹ️ Explosion counts might not be fully accurate, but an approximate made from public reports, strikes in rural areas might not be known for now.

The first Russian DRGs were recorded in the eastern part of Mykolaivka, at the high-rise buildings of Microdistrict No. 2. Ukrainian sources claim that four Russian soldiers were taken as POWs.

I have drawn up the most plausible infiltration route these DRGs took, moving from the tactical heights in the forest north of Rai-Oleksandrivka, west through the treelines, and then the "Rassvet" Dachas.

CENTCOM released footage showing tonight's airstrikes against Iran, which they claim targeted Iranian military command and control centres, drone storage sites, communication networks, coastal surveillance sites, and maritime capabilities.

Note: the footage they posted doesn't appear to show any of these claimed targets, except for "maritime capabilities". This discrepancy has become a trend for CENTCOM in recent days.
