At least 3 Russian Tu-22m3 strategic bombers are airborne from Olenya Airbase.

Unclear if this is a training mission or a combat sortie.

The Tu-22m3 strategic bombers are flying south towards their launch lines in Bryansk Oblast.

There is a threat to Kyiv Oblast and Kyiv City for 30-90 minutes from now

Russia has now struck 3 out of the 9 bridges in Slovyansk since August 3, including two bridges which were destroyed and one which was heavily damaged.

These 9 bridges include pedestrian and road ones, and do not include railway bridges.

Overnight, Ukrainian drones attacked Savasleika Airbase, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. Savasleika Airbase is home to Russian MiG-31K fighter jets, which can launch Kinzhal hypersonic aeroballistic missiles.

Following the strikes, a fire broke out. The Ukrainian General Staff confirmed attacks took place on the Airbase, but did not specify the exact targets.

A Ukrainian military-linked channel denies claims by various sources about Ukraine fully recapturing Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, stating that fighting is still ongoing.

I too can confirm this, with Russian forces still being present near Novopidnoronie, Novoserhiivka, Filiya, Dachne, Horikhove, Novoheorhiivka, Zaporizke, Maliivka, Berezove, Novomykolaivka, and Kalynivske.

The Tu-22m3 bombers are carrying out a training mission over Vologda Oblast.

Great writeup by @Thorkill65 on the propaganda flag planting operations currently being carried out by the Ukrainian and Russian commands.

Keep in mind, the numbers of missiles launched may be slightly higher than what I've listed, as the number of missiles detected is sometimes lower than actual launches. These numbers may be adjusted in the coming hours as more information comes available.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that at least two large fires broke out at the Kremenchuk Oil Refinery in Poltava Oblast following Russian Iskander-M and Kn-23 ballistic missile strikes.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that a large fire broke out at an industrial zone in northern Kyiv following 2 Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strikes.

This area has repeatedly been targeted by missiles in the past.

NASA FIRMS data indicates that a large fire broke out at an industrial zone in western Kryvyi Rih, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, following 2 Russian Kn-23 ballistic missile strikes.
