Germany has lifted all restrictions on the types of weapons that Germany and its allies can supply to Ukraine. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz also stated that there are no limits set by the British, French or the US either. This opens the way to the supply…
I'm wondering if the Taurus missiles are already in Ukraine, and the process to equip them with the Su-24M has already or has nearly been completed.

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said a month and a half ago that Germany is willing to send Taurus missiles to Ukraine as long as it is jointly agreed with Germany's European Partners. Who's to say that they didn't agree 4+ months before that? Of course, the elections in Germany ended only 3 months ago, but it's still possible Scholz made the decision earlier after the Bundestag was dissolved in December 2024.

Furthermore, on May 23, 2 Russian Iskander-M ballistic missiles hit the Odesa Port, with the Russian MOD claiming it targeted a container ship transporting military equipment to Ukraine.

Additionally, U.S. Boeing P-8A Poseidon Maritime Reconnaissance Aircraft have begun making flights around the eastern black sea, close to the Kerch Bridge, possibly scouting it out for the Ukrainian command.

One IL-76MD military transport aircraft landed at Engels-2 Airbase in Saratov Oblast yesterday at 8:15pm, with the cargo likely consisting of Kh-101 cruise missiles.

Additionally, a Tu-160 carried out training from Engels-2 Airbase for 8 hours straight, which is far longer than before.

New satellite imagery of Engels-2 Airbase in Saratov Oblast from May 26.

The following were at the airbase:
2 Tu-95MS strategic bombers.
3 Tu-160 strategic bombers.
2 Su-34 tactical bombers.

One of the two Tu-95s is left over from the last missile attack and is likely being or has already been equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles. The other Tu-95 conducts regular training missions from the airbase with usual training flight patterns - no changes were observed with that.

One of the Tu-160s is from Belaya Airbase in Irkutsk Oblast and redeployed sometime in between the two back-to-back missile strikes. Another of the Tu-160s is left over from the second missile strike and is likely being or has already been equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles. The other Tu-160 regularly conducts training missions from the airbase, with the recent one interestingly lasting exactly 8 hours, which is much longer than usual.

The 2 Su-34s conduct regular bombing runs with KAB/FAB glide-bombs on Sumy Oblast (Richky, Bilopillya, Vorozhba, Yunakivka, Myropillya & Krasnopillya directions), Kharkiv Oblast (Udy, Kozacha Lopan, Slatyne, Vovchansk, Kupyansk, Borova & Izyum directions) and northern Donetsk Oblast (Lyman direction). As of the time this image was taken, at least two of the Su-34s were airborne, likely conducting bombing runs. They also sometimes conduct joint training with the Tu-160 or the Tu-95MS.

Last night, a Russian KAB glide-bomb impacted Sumy City for the first time this year. The last time they targeted the city directly with a glide-bomb was on December 26, 2024.

A large fire broke out at the impact site and locals reported some power outages.

Last night's Geran-2 drone attack was oddly small for this month. Drones were launched from Millerovo Airbase in Rostov Oblast, Cape Chauda in Crimea, and Khalino Airbase in Kursk Oblast.

~25 drones were launched, and targeted Sumy City, Mykolaiv Oblast, Kramatorsk (Donetsk Oblast)

At least 3 impacts were recorded in Sumy, 1 on the outskirts of Mykolaiv and one in Mykolaiv city itself. Electronic warfare in Kramatorsk managed to down all three Gerans which flew into the city around 800-1000 metres short of their target.

Videos are all from Sumy.

Consequences of Russian Geran-2 drone strikes on a truck repair workshop in Sumy City. A fire broke out at the impact site; however, the camera angle doesn't give us a good idea of the damage caused.

Gerans also impacted just 630m away in the same industrial zone 6 days ago, targeting smaller workshop-like areas.

Yesterday for the first time ever, a Russian FPV drone reached the city limits of Kramatorsk, Donetsk Oblast. It was shot down over the city park 22km from the frontline, making it at least a 27km-long flight. Interestingly, it wasn't fiber-optic, but instead an ordinary, but larger-than-normal drone.

One of the targets of yesterday's Kh-101 cruise missile attack on Starokostyantyniv, Khmelnytskyi Oblast was an industrial complex situated right next to the Starokostyantyniv Airbase.

The large fire seen in the video has been geolocated to 49.738653, 27.252867.

A MiG-31K departed from Savasleyka Airbase in Nizhny Novgorod Oblast. It can carry a Kinzhal Hypersonic Ballistic missile. An air raid alert has been declared for all regions of Ukraine.
There is no confirmation of a MiG-31K departure. The air raid alerts for the whole country seems to have been triggered accidentally, resulting in Ukrainian channels believing a MiG had taken off.

Confirmed. No MiG-31K is airborne. Someone is getting fired.
