Flying to Halytsynove, just south of Mykolaiv City. This area was hit by an Iskander-M yesterday.

Explosion in Mykolaiv City

The Kh-22 impacted Halytsynove, Mykolaiv Oblast, hitting the same target which the Iskander-M struck yesterday.

Nevermind, apparently the missile which hit yesterday was also a Kh-22, according to recent debris analysis.

Yesterday, at 4:23pm, a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strike was carried out on a Ukrainian pre-flight preparation and launch site for long-range UAVs near the village of Bratske, Sumy Oblast.

🇷🇺 The Russian military is supposedly going to begin cracking down on radio freebanders who jam their communication lines, anonymous report

There will be no Oreshnik launches this week.

The channel which initially posted the information on this was doing a test for people who copy/paste their reports.

This channel has ties with Ukrainian intelligence, which is why I said “Ukrainian intelligence seems to believe…” rather than “an Oreshnik launch will probably happen”, and mentioned that it was “very unconfirmed”.

Posting this for transparency.

I'm sorry, but I think that someone who shows Kupiansk under complete Ukrainian control is not in a position to criticize other mappers. Perhaps the farce is of your own making by using only Ukrainian reports. Suriyakmaps shows Kupiansk as a disputed area, based on the use of both Ukrainian and Russian sources.
The desperation of the Ukrainian mappers to attack is admirable.

Kupyansk has been a really good unmasking event for many Pro-Ukraine and Pro-Russian mappers, exposing those who seek to falsely portray the situation as more positive for their own side.

There is a tool called https://ukraineviews.org/ which allows everybody to compare interactive maps. Very useful to contrast the information & get better figure of what happen at the frontline. I recommed everyone to use it, as the "truth" is between all of these maps. Better that desesperate attacks of other's work.

In the Komyshuvakha direction, both Russian and Ukrainian forces have advanced, with Russian forces attempting to further collapse Ukrainian lines in the direction of Yurkivka.

In the northwest, following earlier Russian infiltrations, Ukrainian forces eliminated the Russian presence on the southern approaches to Mahdalynivka and recaptured a number of treeline positions northwest of Lukyanivske. From there, they infiltrated the village of Lukyanivske using small, mobile vehicles, where fighting is now ongoing.

To the east, following a week of fighting, Russian forces managed to consolidate in the western houses of Novoboikivske, and are fighting for the rest of the village. They also consolidated in the first street of Novoyakovlivka, and are fighting for the central part of this village. Fighting also continues for central and western Pavlivka.

In the southeast, Russian forces restarted assault operations on the Mali Shcherbaky - Shcherbaky line in coordination with attacks towards the rear of the villages, and managed to recapture the central part of Mali Shcherbaky. Other assault groups re-entered the southern street of Shcherbaky, which was already in the grey-zone, and established control over it.

+ ~5.05 km² in favour of Ukraine.
+ ~2.70 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Omelnyk direction, Russian forces continued to advance amid intensified Ukrainian resistance west of Hulyaipole.

In the south, Russian forces intensified their assault operations following earlier failed attempts at breaking through Ukrainian fortifications. They advanced from the forest northwest of Dorozhnyanka and captured the railway windbreaks to the west and the neighbouring warehouse complex.

This maneuver, along with intensified strikes on Ukrainian logistical routes, forced Ukraine to resort largely to drone-dropping supplies to formations defending the 2022-era fortifications west of Dorozhnyanka. However, due to a lack of drones delivering supplies, Ukrainian soldiers were unable to hold the Russians back, allowing for them to break through and capture the rest of the railway windbreaks, along with additional treeline positions on the tactical heights.

Meanwhile, the front has largely stabilised west of Hulyaipole, with Russian forces carrying out unsuccessful attacks on strongpoints along the ridgeline there, and on the eastern outskirts of Zaliznyanske. However, these developments in the south could result in a flanking maneuver against the strong Ukrainian positions there.

Additionally, in the north, Russian forces marginally advanced in the treelines northeast of Zaliznyanske, while DRG infiltrations to the eastern outskirts of Staroukrainka continued.

+ ~7.87 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Prosyana direction, both Russian and Ukrainian forces are attacking, with Russian forces making additional progress.

After re-establishing themselves in the easternmost part of Ivanivka, Russian forces managed to consolidate in additional positions further west. This expansion allowed for them to intensify their infiltrations further north and northeast, where fighting is ongoing for the strongpoints along the ridgeline and for the rest of the eastern part of Ivanivka.

Meanwhile, small groups of Russian soldiers continued to slip through to the northern edge of Ivanivka, where they are engaged in fighting for the southern end of the gulley. Ukrainian forces are also infiltrating the grey-zone in the central part of Ivanivka, where both sides are attempting to establish a stable zone of control.

+ ~1.13 km² in favour of Russia.
