Asked if Zelensky is winning, Trump says: ‘I think he’s doing pretty well. You gotta say he’s courageous, he’s got great equipment.’

KAB glide-bomb to Zaporizhzhia City. Flying over the southern suburbs.

During the night, there is an increased threat of Russian MiG-31K fighter jets stationed at Savasleika Airbase, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, launching Kinzhal hypersonic aeroballistic missiles at Ukraine.

One month later Vostok Orient Express has derailed again in Huliaipole direction. Will the tracks be repaired soon?

Can confirm this too. The offensive to Orikhiv from the east may be postponed/suspended.

Situational update on the Kostyantynivka direction:

Over the last week, the situation has continued to deteriorate for Ukrainian forces in Kostyantynivka as Russian forces continue to clear the remaining parts of the city still under Ukrainian control. Additionally, Russian forces have intensified assault operations on the flanks of the city in preparation to advance towards Druzhkivka once Kostyantynivka is captured.

West of Kostyantynivka, Russian forces captured a series of treeline positions southwest of Illinivka, from which they are infiltrating the eastern part of Dovha Balka. Other assault groups are infiltrating Dovha Balka from the south, and are attempting to outflank it from the east by advancing further north towards the chain of reservoirs. Additionally, the Russians resumed assault operations west of Stepanivka, advancing towards the Ukrainian treeline strongpoints southwest of Dovha Balka.

In the northwestern part of Kostyantynivka, Russian forces completed the capture of the remaining residential area south of the tributary of the Kryvyi Torets River after Ukrainian special forces withdrew. From there, they crossed the tributary and gained a foothold in the first blocks of the Novoselivka District and are now attacking Ukrainian positions on the northwestern outskirts of Kostyantynivka, which are coming under extremely heavy shelling. Some forward assault groups and DRGs reached the northwestern exist to Kostyantynivka and are attempting to enter the nearby village of Osykove. Other assault groups cleared the western bank of the reservoirs and linked up with other forces in the Novoselivka District.

In the central part of Kostyantynivka, Russian forces continued fighting for the Zinkovy District, where they are attempting to clear out the last remaining Ukrainian soldiers west of the Kryvyi Torets River. Battles continue for the neighbouring central industrial zones, where Russia is slowly completing their clearing operations.

In the eastern part of Kostyantynivka, the Russians captured the railway station and nearby private sector after Ukrainian forces withdrew to the stadium. Covering forces are currently holding the area of the stadium under Russian operational encirclement to allow for the main Ukrainian force to withdraw northwest past the historical centre to the northern suburbs. Additionally, Russian forces advanced west of the tram depot, capturing several low-rise residential blocks southwest of the large forest.

In the northern part of Kostyantynivka, Russian forces significantly expanded their zone of control, capturing numerous low-rise residential blocks and breaking through to the 3-story buildings north of the stadium. Here, they are heavily shelling the remaining Ukrainian forces who are holding out and trying to withdraw to the northern suburbs. Other assault groups continue to assault the Ukrainian strongholds at the northern entrance to the city near the Novodmytrivka-Kostyantynivka Road from the east and west, while simultaneously attacking south towards the 3-story buildings in order to physically cut them off.

Additionally, heavy fighting continues for the historical centre, however, due to the continued presence of numerous Ukrainian positions overlapped with Russian positions, Russian forces are yet to establish stable control over any of these areas. Nevertheless, infiltration attempts continue to the highway in order to physically cut off the Ukrainian formations to the east, as well as west across the tributary of the Kryvyi Torets River into the northernmost part of Kostyantynivka.

East of Kostyantynivka, the Russians began advancing east of Novodmytrivka, capturing several treeline positions north of the large forest. Infiltration attempts are now underway towards the eastern edge of the reservoir north of Novodmytrivka.

In the Chasiv Yar area, Russian forces continued their attacks in the Shevchenko District of the city, as well as on Ukrainian positions along the railway line to the west, so far without any confirmed successes.

As recently seen in Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad, some of the areas of Kostyantynivka shown in red contain small, isolated groups of Ukrainian soldiers trapped in individual positions behind the lines. These positions do not pose any significant threat to Russia, and do not affect their offensive, hence why they are not represented by any grey-zone on the map.

A cargo ship has been struck by an unknown projectile in the Strait of Hormuz, 7.5 nautical miles southeast of Dahit, Oman, resulting in damage to the vessel's bridge.

No casualties are reported.

Every now and then, I stumble across some large US-based engagement farming Twitter account with millions of followers, check the comments, and remember that a large chunk of Americans still support Trump, even after they lost the war with Iran.

Completely unreal.

The next combined Russian missile and drone attack involving strategic aviation has been delayed due to large-scale training missions taking place from Ukrainka Airbase in the Far East.

Tu-95MS and Tu-160M strategic bombers are taking part, along with IL-78M aerial refuellers. They are expected to continue tonight.

This does not rule out the possibility of a large-scale attack taking place without strategic aviation, utilising large amounts of Kalibr cruise missiles, Iskander-M ballistic missiles, and other weapons. Russia has accumulated several hundred Geran-2/Gerbera drones at their launch sites over the last week and a half.

Deepstate has denied claims of a Russian retreat from the Kinburn Spit in Mykolaiv Oblast, stating that Russian forces continue to launch Molniya FPV drones towards Kherson and Mykolaiv Oblasts from here, and continues to maintain electronic warfare systems.

They also stated that the recent video showing a Ukrainian flag on the Kinburn Spit was dropped by a drone, and that there is no Ukrainian operation to retake it.

Ukrainian Navy Spokesperson has also refuted claims of a Russian retreat.
