The Russian offensive on the south Donetsk front has now been completed, with Russian soldiers entering Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. There is still the western part of Donetsk Oblast which is yet to be cleared.

Russian forces have captured the village of Novoukrainka, Novopavlivka direction, Donetsk Oblast.

I am aware of Pro-Ukrainians in the channel chat mass reporting users who disagree with them to Telegram in order to get them restricted. It seems there are only a few of them, and they have come over from twitter. I can't un-restrict you if this has happened to you as it is on the application's level, not the channel's. It seems to be a temporary restriction, and not permanent though.

I am working on finding the remaining people doing this, but bear with me for now.

Of course Ukraine timed these propagandised numbers to reach 1,000,000 on Russia Day lmao.

Update: All the wounded soldiers have suddenly died of an unknown cause, and now the 1,000,000 figure represents "eliminated" soldiers.

Russian forces have captured the village of Hryhorivka, Siversk direction, Donetsk Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~90
Total land area: ~0.94km²

Correction: Ukrainian forces still maintain positions in Zelenyi Kut and Novoukrainka. The villages have NOT been captured.

The Russian flag raise in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast was from forces crossing the Vovcha River and taking up positions behind Novoukrainka. The map will be corrected accordingly.
