Anyway, I've been up for over 26 hours, so I need to get some rest badly. Tomorrow I will post the consequences of tonight's attack on Kyiv.

โก๏ธ๐พ๐ช ๐พ๐ช๐ธ๐ฆ The Houthis released a statement claiming that eight Saudi oil tankers had altered their routes and were sailing via the Cape of Good Hope instead of their original course as a result of their blockade on the gulf kingdom.
They further said their forces would continue enforcing a siege against Saudi Arabia and would target any Saudi-linked vessels they were able to intercept.
The group also praised large public gatherings across Yemen despite heavy rainfall, thanking supporters for their participation. It pledged to continue efforts to end what it described as the siege imposed on Yemen and to restore the country's rights.

I've read and written the phrase "Strait of Hormuz" so much over the last 6 months that my brain has started automatically typing words like "straightforward" as "Straitforward". I'm not even joking.

Around 2 hours ago, a Russian Su-57 fighter jet carried out a very rare patrol over Donetsk Oblast.
Due to Russian advances over the last two years, the Su-57 was able to fly all the way up to the southeastern outskirts of Donetsk city, coming within 78 km of today's frontline.
The aircraft then did 6 loops near the international border, before flying east through Rostov Oblast.
The attached map shows the approximate flight route of the Su-57 as it was detected by Ukrainian radars.

Very high Russian Su-34 and Su-35 activity over Donetsk and Luhansk Oblasts right now.
They are carrying out a large scale bombing campaign on the Dobropillya, Druzhkivka, and Slovyansk directions. A reconnaissance drone is adjusting the strikes near Druzhkivka.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that a large fire broke out at the "Asphalt concrete plant" in Kyiv following several Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile and Zircon hypersonic cruise missile strikes.
This confirms my earlier information that the power surges and water outages in Kyiv were due to strikes on something adjacent to the CHP-5 Power Plant.

Greystate continues to deny that Russia Russian controls any part of Kostyantynivka. They also deny that Chasiv Yar has fallen, despite their OWN GENERAL STAFF saying so earlier this week.

Iran attacked your bases in Jordan and you didn't respond.
You are almost out of interceptor missiles, and Iran can hit basically anything they want now.
Iranian deterrence has been achieved.

Footage showing a combined Russian missile and drone attack on the Zatoka Bridge in Odesa Oblast.
Strikes were carried out using Iskander-M ballistic missiles, Kh-59/69 cruise missiles, Banderol jet-drones, and Geran-2 drones.
This is the only route entirely in Ukraine that connects southern Odesa Oblast with the rest of the country. It has suffered heavy bombardments numerous times throughout this war, but was never destroyed. Today is another one of those cases, with the bridge still remaining standing.

Following the dismissal replacement of Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi and Chief of the General Staff Andrii Hnatov, some new changes have been observed in the official map of the Ukrainian General Staff.
For a while now, the mapping project Deepstate could be considered the "official Ukrainian map" due to their close ties with, and heavy influence and suppression by Ukrainian authorities (sometimes even resulting in their members being mobilised for showing certain Russian advances).
However, the lesser-known official map of the Ukrainian General Staff has seen some recent major updates in areas where they previously refused to show Russian advances.
Near Kostyantynivka, they marked the entire city of Chasiv Yar and part of neighbouring Mykolaivka as under Russian control - an area that Deepstate continues to claim is in a zone of Russian "infiltration", or even under solid Ukrainian control. Near Hulyaipole, they showed a large area of Russian control west of the Haichur River. Near Dobropillya, they admitted to the fall of Rodynske and the capture of a number of important positions near Vilne and Hryshyne by Russian forces.
While the Ukrainian General Staff map is still very behind, for informational purposes obviously, it has revealed areas where Deepstate has been purposefully withholding the true situation, in line with the earlier orders of Syrskyi.
I've highlighted some of the more prominent examples of this, with the red overlay line representing the frontline shown by the Ukrainian General Staff.

A prominent Ukrainian military channel has reported that the assault forces of the former so-called "Syrskyi's Army" will likely be transferred to the command of the Ukrainian Air Assault Forces.
He also stated that the fate of the 151st, 153rd, 154th, 155th, 156th, 157th, 159th, and 160th mechanised is unknown, but that their effectiveness is "highly debatable".

Forward Russian assault groups are now just 4.7 km from the eastern outskirts of both Slovyansk and Kramatorsk.
In fact, Russian forces are now closer to both these cities than even Druzhkivka, where forward assault groups are approximately 5.1 km away.
However, its important to note that this is only for the eastern outskirts. The distance from the frontline to the centre of Kramatorsk is approximately 8.7 km, while the distance to Slovyansk city centre is about 13.4 km.
This time last year, Russian forces were around 17 km from the eastern outskirts of Kramatorsk and 20.6 km from Slovyansk. These final Donbas cities are slowly transforming into dead cities, becoming more and more unliveable for the civilian population. Soon they will fully complete the transformation from Zaporizhzhia-type civilian cities to Druzhkivka or Dobropillya-like military hubs.
Every day, they are increasingly being struck by KAB glide-bombs, artillery, MLRS, and drones of various types (including FPVs), resulting in large amounts of destruction to their infrastructure.

The Russian Ministry of Defence claims that over the last day, they struck a number of new targets in Odesa Oblast, Mykolaiv Oblast, and the western Black Sea.
These include fuel tanks at Odesa Port reportedly intended to supply the Ukrainian military, a naval tugboat at Mykolaiv Port reportedly converted to operate drone-boats, and a cargo vessel 8 km east of Zatoka (Odesa Oblast).
Today was the 22nd day of Russia's new massive strike campaign on Ukrainian port infrastructure.
