Explosions have been periodically heard from the Strait of Hormuz for the last couple of hours, likely due to ongoing Iranian attacks against violating vessels.

The Russian 144th Motor Rifle Division, responsible for this sector of the Ukrainian counteroffensive, has also, for the first time, acknowledged the ongoing Ukrainian operation.

While they deny Ukraine has made any advances, in this video they posted they happen to show strikes on Ukrainian forces in the village of Kolodyazi - over 13 km behind their claimed frontline, and 26 km west of Svyatohirsk, which Putin claims is under Russian control.

Genuinely, how did the Russian 144th Motor Rifle Division manage to fuck up so hard in Lyman...

Around 420 km² of advances and grey-zones made since early-2025 have been cleared by Ukrainian forces, most of which was done in the last 4 months (some smaller clearing operations were ongoing before May).

And the Ukrainian advance continued eastward to the Zherebets River, which they have already reached at multiple points.

Hey @.WarMonitor3 can we get an update on this post please?

Perhaps you give us an update on the collapse of Iran from the centre of liberated Mariupol.

Lyman is the new Bilohorivka.

Ukrainian forces have recaptured the village of Myrne, Lyman direction, Donetsk Oblast (Kramatorsk District).

Pre-war population: ~18.
Total land area: ~0.12 km²

The second battle for Myrne lasted less than one week.

The U.S. has issued a travel advisory for Saudi Arabia due to a risk of Iranian missile and drone attacks, as well as "armed conflict, terrorism, exit bans, and local laws regarding social media activity".

They have also issued a "Do not travel" order for the border areas with Yemen.

According to initial and unconfirmed reports, Ansarallah air defences shot down a Saudi F-15 fighter jet over the Yemeni city of Marib.

There are conflicting reports on whether the alleged Saudi pilot is in Houthi custody or still being searched for.

According to figures published by @CIT_shellings, citing Russian and Ukrainian regional official reports, at least 9 civilians were killed and 62 others injured as a result of Russian and Ukrainian attacks in the last 24 hours.

Russian strikes killed 7 civilians and injured 51 others.

Ukrainian strikes killed 2 civilians and injured 11 others.
