The current condition of the main highway bridge in the centre of Kramatorsk, which has been repeatedly hit by Russian KAB glide-bombs.

Russia continued their large-scale attacks on Ukraine using Geran-2 drones, Geran-4/5 jet-drones, and S8000 Banderol cruise missiles over the last 24 hours, striking targets across the country.

At least 350 drones were used in total. Compared to the previous 24 hours, the strikes were more spread out. There was a continued focus on attacking the Dnipropetrovsk-Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Vinnytsia Oblast, Odesa Oblast, and Kyiv Oblast areas. Attacks on Kharkiv Oblast decreased, while Sumy and Chernihiv Oblast saw an increase. There were also some individual strikes on targets in Khmelnytskyi, Zhytomyr, and Rivne Oblasts.

The primary targets were again energy and railway infrastructure, with electrical substations and thermal power plants across Ukraine being hit even more than in yesterday's attacks.

The Russian Tu-95MS strategic bombers that took part in the large-scale, combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine a few days ago are now being redeployed back to Ukrainka Airbase in the Far East, where they will undergo re-equipment of Kh-101 cruise missiles.

Borova 👀

While for now Ukraine might be doing alright on the frontlines, in Kyiv its another story.

Ukrainian forces have recaptured the village of Zelenyi Hai, Borova direction, Kharkiv Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~130.
Total land area: ~0.69 km².

The second battle for Zelenyi Hai lasted at least one week.

❗️Over the last few weeks, Ukrainian forces have expanded their Lyman counteroffensive to the neighbouring Borova direction, where they have been conducting a new series of coordinated counterattacks, resulting in significant advances being made:

According to my information, Ukrainian forces have been making progress in two different areas here, slowly pushing the Russians back away from the Oskil River and alleviating pressure on the town of Borova from the north. This could also open up opportunities to unblock the northern Oskil bridgehead from the south in the future, where-in they could potentially Kupyansk-Vuzlovyi from the south.

In the west, Ukrainian forces were able to clear out the approaches to Bohuslavka and Novoplatonivka from earlier Russian infiltrations, and initiated counterattacks eastwards towards the village of Borivska Andriivka. They also advanced south from the Nova Kruhlyakivka area towards Borivska Andriivka, recapturing a series of trench fortifications, and officially eliminating the Russian salient between the Lozova and Oskil Rivers.

In the east, Ukrainian assault groups recaptured the village of Zelenyi Hai after a little over a week of fighting, and began pushing further north. They also secured the forested gullies east of the settlement and began infiltrating Vyshneve, which, according to Russian channel Rybar, is currently in the grey-zone, along with the fields north of the village.

Important disclaimer: this is only the information I have been explicitly told by my sources that I am allowed to make public. There have been a number of additional advances made in this sector that I have to wait before publishing in order to comply with Ukraine's OPSEC measures, or until open source information about them surfaces. The frontline shown on this map is very approximate and delayed, in order to prevent giving away targeting data about Ukrainian positions to the Russians.

Contrary to the main Lyman counteroffensive, there is almost no open source information to map these counterattacks with, which means I have to comply with Ukraine's OSPEC and informational campaigns as I am using exclusive information from sources on the ground to map this. The only open source information I used for this update was the recent geolocations showing Ukrainian soldiers being hit east of Zelenyi Hai, and Rybar's recent map update portraying Vyshneve as in the grey-zone.

+ ~39.19 km² in favour of Ukraine.

Seems like claims by both sides about Komyshuvakha were true to some extent.

A Ukrainian commander, who was seen on the bodycam footage from the school before the second strike, was killed, indicating some sort of Ukrainian command centre was likely either there or next-door.

A humanitarian aid point was definitely at the school too, where over 70 civilians were killed in the strikes.

Major Vitaliy Vasyliovych Bevza may have been a commander of either the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd battalions of the 153rd Mechanizsd Brigade, which is currently engaged in fighting for the Novoandriivka area near Orikhiv.

Ukrainian forces have re-established control over the village of Bachivsk, Hlukhiv direction, Sumy Oblast (Shostka District).

Pre-war population: ~390.
Total land area: ~1.98 km².

The fighting for Bachivsk lasted approximately 5 months.

Note: Bachivsk was never under full Russian control, but it reached the criteria of being at least 50% contested for a post to be made about it.

And these are much-needed and limited Ukrainian clearing groups that could be used for defending the actual frontline.

One of the goals of these persistent deep Russian infiltrations is to keep Ukrainian forces engaged and tied up in what should be their relatively safe tactical rear.

Two Russian Tu-22m3 strategic bombers are redeploying from Belaya Airbase, Irkutsk Oblast, to Olenya Airbase, Murmansk Oblast.

If they subsequently fly to Dyagilevo Airbase in Ryazan Oblast to be equipped with Kh-22/32 supersonic cruise missile, then Russia will have potentially 4 Tu-22m3 ready for a combat mission.

This threat is relevant for tonight as well.

It’s difficult to say when this attack will happen, as Russia may be waiting for some repairs to be done on the power plants in Kyiv before hitting them again.

The Israeli Army Radio reports that the Israeli central command has ordered Israeli forces to stop informing Palestinian Authority security forces in the West Bank in advance about IDF raids into West Bank towns and cities.

The IRGC claims that their air defences shot down another U.S. MQ-1C drone over Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz.

They allege this is the 16th drone of this type to be intercepted since the beginning of the war.
