Geolocations from recent footage of Russian infantry in the north and northwest parts of Toretsk. They are often cleared by Ukrainian forces, but Russian infantry continues to try to advance in small groups by gaining a foothold in basements. @Deepstate_UA says that the weather is also making it more difficult to defend because it hinders the use of UAVs.

Looks like the Sting UAV for intercepting Shaheds dropped from an FPV. https://twitter.com/wilendhornets/status/1876342769805123759#m

Video of an FPV / kamikaze UAV strike on a Russian Pantsir-S1 air defense system in Kherson Oblast. The Ukrainian Navy says they damaged or destroyed two Pantsir-S1 and an Osa air defense system over the past day.

Wheeled armored vehicles are playing an important role in this war, but these videos give you an indication of why tracked armored vehicles are still critical in modern armies. https://twitter.com/GirkinGirkin/status/1876261052272566597#m

@sentdefender: Everyone has a hypersonic missile now according to themselves. In reality, they are not hypersonic missiles.

@LCplLarry: Yes, and I've heard other units talk about wheeled vehicles being able to return despite losing multiple tires, but we have also talked to units who want tracked IFVs instead of their wheeled vehicles.

RT @wartranslated: An extremely curious incident occurred with the commander of the Akhmat special forces unit, Apti Alaudinov. He was spotted alongside none other than Alexey Milchakov from the Rusich unit, known for his far-right views and war crimes. The crux of the matter is that for the traditional far-right circles in Russia—particularly those as radical as this one, where attitudes toward Chechens and other minority groups have historically been extremely negative—such a meeting with a Chechen, especially at this level, is inherently unwelcome. In this case, both figures are well-matched, so Apti’s motives might stem from a genuine necessity for assistance, for example in the Kursk special operations zone.
Milchakov decided to defend his position to the bitter end, even publishing a justification in Telegram consisting of ten points. He primarily explained contact as a need for "additional opportunities to develop the unit."

Updated map showing Russian advances on the Kupiansk, Lyman and Kurakhove fronts. @Deepstate_UA also expanded the gray zone in Toretsk and in Berdyn, Kursk oblast due to Russian and Ukrainian assaults, respectively.

@ArmouredPhalanx: True, but wheeled vehicles often lose tires due to running over detritus/frag on the ground that doesn't affect tracks.
