Russian mapper Radov confirmed my earlier information that Russian forces withdrew from northeastern Dobropillya and Hannivka, stating "Unfortunately, our troops have temporarily withdrawn from Annovka, but attacks on the village are ongoing. The enemy is using drones to counter our advances."

It's also reported that the Ukrainian 1st Heavy Mechanised Brigade has been redeployed from Sumy Oblast to hold the area south of Dobropillya. Prior to this, Ukraine redeployed the reformed remnants of the 425th Assault Regiment "Skala" and 225th Assault Regiment, with the 225th also responsible for holding the area south of Dobropillya.

The 425th is probably operating north and northeast of Dobropillya, alongside the 12th Azov Brigade, 25th Assault Brigade, elements of the 1st Assault Regiment "Da Vinci", 4th Rubizh Brigade, 20th Lyubart Brigade, 14th Chervona Kalyna Brigade, 15th Kara-Dag Brigade, and 38th Marine Brigade, among several other units, which are all concentrated to hold the areas east, southeast, and northeast of the city.

Ukraine has concentrated a large number of units, including elite ones, to hold Dobropillya as long as possible, and prevent another August 2025-style breakthrough.

As you guys could probably have guessed, Twitter didn't particularly like these earlier posts (mainly non-Ukrainian westerners, ironically). But at least my block/mute list was expanded by a few hundred :)

There is an increased ballistic missile threat to Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast tonight from 11:30pm onwards (20 mins from now).

Russia could launch up to 28 Iskander-M/S-400 ballistic missiles, as well as up to 8 Zircon/Oniks-M cruise missiles and possibly several Kn-23 ballistic missiles. There could also be additional Kalibr launches from the Caspian/Black Sea.

There is no guarantee that an attack will indeed take place tonight, but information about it exists.

Zelensky has now also confirmed that Russia intends to carry out a new massive missile attack on Ukraine soon.

Iranian Air Force fighter jets are airborne over Tehran.

1-2 Iranian anti-ship cruise missiles launched from southern Iran targeted a vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.

A third Iranian anti-ship cruise missile attack has now taken place.

A Russian Geran-5 jet-drone did a lot of maneuvering over Kyiv tonight, spending around an hour making large loops in and around the city, before being shot down northeast of Ukrainka, Kyiv Oblast.

Ansarullah claimed that their air defences shot down a Saudi “Wing Loong 2” drone over Al-Mukha, Taizz Governorate.

One week from now, on September 30, the remaining U.S. forces are expected to withdraw from their last bases in Erbil, Iraqi Kurdistan, which would end their 23-year military presence in Iraq.
