Here's a map overlaying the Russian state media RIA Novosti claimed frontline (red) with my map (purple).

The discrepancy between their frontline and my frontline continues to grow every day, as the Russian Ministry of Defence fabricates Russian advances to create the illusion of greater Russian frontline successes.

The most striking differences are in the Lyman, Pokrovs'ke, and Vovchansk areas. In the Lyman direction, RIA's frontline is around 26 km of my frontline at the closest point.

The target of the Russian Geran-4 jet-drone strike on Kyiv was likely a building owned by the "Telepark" telecommunications services provider.

Flight routes of the two Russian jet-powered glide-bombs and the Su-34 which launched them.

They impacted the town of Novooleksandrivka, just south of Dnipro.

Russian forces are currently suffering a localised collapse in the Lyman and Slovyansk directions.

Some major Ukrainian advances have been made in the last week.

Ukrainian forces have officially re-established control over the city of Lyman, Lyman direction, Donetsk Oblast (Kramatorsk District).

Pre-war population: ~20,066.
Total land area: ~22.9 km².

The third battle for Lyman lasted approximately 10 months.

The city was more than 50% contested at one point, which is why I have made this post about it.

Ukrainian forces have re-established control over the village of Pyskunivka, Slovyansk direction, Donetsk Oblast (Kramatorsk District).

Pre-war population: ~174.
Total land area: ~1.10 km².

The fighting for Pyskunivka lasted approximately 2 months, 25 days.

Ukrainian forces have re-established control over the village of Dibrova, Lyman direction, Donetsk Oblast (Kramatorsk District).

Pre-war population: ~329.
Total land area: ~2.95 km².

The fighting for Dibrova lasted approximately 10 months.

Situation on the Lyman & Slovyansk directions, Donetsk Oblast:

Over the last 10 days, Ukrainian forces continued their counteroffensive operations in the Lyman direction, which has facilitated the launching of additional counterattacks east of Mykolaivka in the direction of Siversk.

In the north, Ukrainian forces continued advancing eastwards down the Pynkov Gulley towards Zarichne, entering the western part of the village, and captured some new positions on the northwestern outskirts of the settlement. Other forces continued fighting for the northern streets of the village.

To the southwest, after clearing northern Lyman from earlier Russian infiltrations, Ukrainian forces were able to establish control over the fields east of the city, while simultaneously breaking through east along the road to Zarichne, entering the southwestern part of the village where they are now engaged in heavy fighting with Russian forces. Since then, they were able to fully clear the fields between Lyman and Zarichne, pushing the Russians nearly 9 km away from the eastern outskirts of Lyman.

To the south, the Ukrainians completed their clearing operations in the southeastern suburbs of Lyman, thereby officially re-establishing full control over Lyman city. From there, they began advancing east through the forests towards Torske, pushing the Russians around 8 km away from the eastern outskirts of Lyman and establishing control over nearly the entire stretch of forest between Lyman and Torske.

To support these counterattacks east of Lyman, Ukrainian forces, with their newly improved logistical lines established in the recaptured areas north and northwest of Lyman, began funnelling in reinforcements for new operations southeast of Lyman, where they were able to clear the forests west of Dibrova before eventually re-establishing full control over the village itself. From here, they initiated new counterattacks east from Lyman, pushing down the railway line and recapturing a number of strongpoints along the way, while other assault groups secured the strongpoints at the lakes northeast of Dibrova.

To the southeast, the Ukrainians resumed infiltration operations into Yampil and recaptured the southern half of the village. From there, they began a two-pronged attack in the direction of Torske from the southwest, supporting the ongoing offensive from the west, where they are now actively infiltrating towards the railway overpass, the ostrich farm, and the western edge of the Serebryansky Forest in Luhansk Oblast. Due to these advances, Russian forces mostly withdrew from their large salient southeast of Lyman and are attempting to defend a small bridgehead west of the Zherebets River northeast of Yampil.

Following these advances north of the Siverskyi Donets River, the Ukrainian command deployed significant reinforcements along their former salient north of the river, deploying drone operators close to the frontline and concentrating assault groups in the forests. These assault groups then launched cross-river operations south into the villages of Kryva Luka and Psykunivka, completely recapturing the latter and establishing a foothold in the former. From there they began pushing southwest from Kryva Luka into the surrounding forests, south from Pyskunivka into the surrounding forests, and then southwest from Pyskunivka & Starodubivka towards Mykolaivka, linking up with forces entrenched in the area of the Slovyansk Thermal Power Plant.

With the southern bank of the Siverskyi Donets River now secured, Ukrainian forces initiated sector-wide counterattacks from the Mykolaivka area, clearing the outskirts of the city and forests surrounding Orikhuvatka from earlier Russian infiltrations, before subsequently recapturing a large area east of the city, including the forested areas and trench fortifications which were poorly consolidated by Russian forces.

Since then, Ukrainian forces managed re-enter Rai-Oleksandrivka and recaptured the majority of the town, entrenching in the treelines to the southeast as well, and began pushing east through the forest north of the town towards Kalenyky. This counteroffensive is being supported by a large number of FPV drone strikes on Russian logistics the Siversk area, especially on logistics flowing west of the city. Even more intense strikes on Russian logistics are occuring in the Lyman direction, targeting supply vehicles up to 150 km behind the frontline.

+ ~190.80 km² in favour of Ukraine.
