A Russian Geran-4 jet-drone struck the city of Pavlohrad, eastern Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, this morning.

Smoke was seen rising following the impact.

Zaporizhzhia City is under attack from Russian KAB glide-bombs.

At least four impacts to the southern suburbs so far.

The city of Konotop, Sumy Oblast, has now been entirely without power for over 5 days due to repeated Russian attacks on energy infrastructure in the region.

Residents are being forced to travel to neighbouring cities to charge their devices and power banks. In Konotop, everything has to run off generators, however the fuel for them is becoming scarce.

Emergency work is underway to restore electricity, and the Ukrainian government is expected to provide the city with diesel fuel for generators today.

Oleshky Ceasefire.

It's now been over 48 hours since the implementation of the ceasefire across Kherson Oblast, and no major violations have been recorded.

It has become apparent that one of the terms of the ceasefire is that Ukrainian and Russian drones are not allowed to cross the Dnieper River to the opposite banks, meaning that any reconnaissance of logistics from either side must be conducted from a significant distance.

Russia and Ukraine are both taking advantage of this to reinforce their positions in the region. Russian forces are bringing forward new reinforcements in trucks, and increasing their presence along the eastern bank of the Dnieper River. According to unconfirmed reports, Russian forces are also constructing anti-drone netting over the industrial zone of Nova Kakhovka. Ukrainian forces are conducting rotations throughout the western bank of the river, evacuating the remaining injured and killed personnel, and bringing forward new supplies to frontline positions. Heavy demining operations continue on both banks of the river. One Ukrainian marine has already been killed by the detonation of unexploded ordinance.

On the islands in the river, there is practically no movements of Russian and Ukrainian soldiers, as it's less clear where the ceasefire line is there. Ukrainian and Russian forces both continue to hold positions on the islands, including sometimes fairly close to one another. It's likely that neither side wants to be detected there so as not to give each other a reason to break the truce.

Russian channels claim that at least two Ukrainian FPV drones were shot down over the R-57 Highway southwest of Oleshky. It's unclear if these alleged drones were for reconnaissance or strike purposes. It's also claimed that several Ukrainian FPV drones attempted to approach the Tendrovska Spit, but were shot down. Ukrainian artillery shelling reportedly targeted Russian positions on the Kinburn Spit, however, because this is technically part of Mykolaiv Oblast, it's likely that the ceasefire does not extend to there.

Throughout the last day, Ukrainian channels sporadically reported drone detections over the suburbs of Kherson closest to the river, as well as over the river itself, opposite the port. It's unknown if these were Ukrainian drones or Russian drones. Likely a mix a both.

There is a general consensus in the information space that, because both sides are taking advantage of this ceasefire to bring forward heavy reinforcements and increase their presence on both sides of the river, the intensity of fighting will significantly increase after the end of the truce, as both sides will have a much higher strike capacity for some time.

I’m out walking and there’s a car with a number plate “SBU”.

They’re watching me 😁

This is the kind of thing I should post before taking a break from reporting and going completely silent for a week with no explanation

The Russian Ministry of Defence claims to have struck a barge in the western Black Sea, which was allegedly transporting military cargo and dual-use goods to Odesa Port.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that a large fire is burning at Marinovka Airbase in Volgograd Oblast following overnight Ukrainian mid-range drone strikes.

The Russian Ministry of Defence claims that 1,214 Ukrainian drones were shot down in a single night.
