Ukrainian sources, including the Kharkiv Oblast councillor Oleksandr Skoryk, report that every single petrol station along the Kharkiv-Poltava Highway and Dnipro-Zaporizhzhia Highway have been destroyed by Russian drone strikes.

Russia has equipped an unprecedented 6 of it's modernised Tu-160M strategic bombers with dozens of Kh-101 cruise missiles at Ukrainka Airbase in the Far East, in preparation for its next large-scale, combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine.

An additional 2 Tu-95MS strategic bombers are equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles at Olenya Airbase, Murmansk Oblast.

Additionally, Russia likely intends to launch Iskander-M ballistic missiles and Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles, as well as possibly Kalibr cruise missiles.

The attack will likely take place sometime in the next few days, as preparations are almost complete.

Russia is sending in tactical giants to capture settlements now.

Iskander-M on Fastiv, Kyiv Oblast

Disappeared near Makariv, Kyiv Oblast.

Bilyi Kolodyaz still under full Ukrainian Army control. Russian troops are now operating at the northern & western outskirts of the locality but haven't entered yet. 🇺🇦🇷🇺

Russia attempted to attack Kyiv with four Geran-4/5 jet-drones launched from Donetsk International Airport tonight.

All four drones were able to fly across all of eastern and central Ukraine, but were intercepted by surface-to-air missiles of an unknown type (not Patriots) south of Kyiv and over the southern suburbs of the city.

A Russian Geran-4 jet-drone struck a Ukrainian locomotive in the town of Verkhivtseve, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Overnight, Russia carried out a large-scale attack on Kharkiv Oblast using Geran-2 drones and Geran-4 jet-drones.

In the city of Bohodukhiv, at least 16 Geran-2 drones attacked targets, resulting in power outages.

In the town of Andriivka, energy infrastructure came under attack by at least four Geran-3/4 jet-drones, resulting in power outages near the cities of Balakliya and Izyum.

At least 2 Geran-3/4 jet-drones attacked the city of Korotych, just west of Kharkiv City, resulting in a large fire breaking out (as seen in the attached image).

Geran-2 drone(s) also attacked the town of Krasnokutsk.

The Ukrainian command continues to send out isolated units to take photos in parts of the city and keep the media battle for the city going. This is also so that pro-Ukrainian fanatics can keep regurgitating propaganda, such as those who talk about ‘ninja troops’ and attack AMK because the reality, however, is quite different of what their minds tell them.

I have different criteria to Suriyak for marking areas as Russian controlled.

Militarily speaking, has Kostyantynivka fallen? Effectively.

Are battles still technically ongoing? Yes.

The Ukrainian presence in the outer suburbs is still too strong for me to change it from grey to red, but this may change soon.

The Russian presence is overwhelming compared to Ukraine's presence, and continues to trend in this direction. The Ukrainian command sending in small groups of soldiers in 2s and 3s to extend the length of the battle in the information space won't change much from a tactical perspective.

Also, Ukraine has almost completed its withdrawal from the Chasiv Yar salient north of Kostyantynivka, as once Russia achieves full consolidation in Kostyantynivka it will become impossible to hold and extremely prone to encirclement. At the moment, no more than a few dozen Ukrainian soldiers are present in the Chasiv Yar-Mykolaivka-Chervone area.

West of Kostyantynivka, Russia is also developing an offensive towards Mykolaipillya, incrementally clearing key Ukrainian strongpoints and bypassing advanced Ukrainian positions at Stepanivka and Dovha Balka.
