The radio activity at Engels-2 Airbase has stopped. The Tu-160 that is airborne may be training/redeploying.

All flights in and out of Ramon Airport have been suspended as the drone continues to approach from the south.

The drone was shot down by the helicopter.

Russian forces have recaptured the village of Tykhe, Velykyi Burluk direction, Kharkiv Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~164.
Total land area: ~0.80 km²

It's unclear exactly when this happened.

In the Pokrovske direction, Russian forces continue to advance west through Zaporizhzhia Oblast and have reached the village of Novoivanivka.

Russian forces continued attacking along the tactical heights, and over the past few days, have advanced for over 5 km along the road to Novoivanivka. Here, they established control over the treelines perpendicular to the road, while other forces crossed a tributary of the Yanchur River, and captured the village of Obratne as well as the treelines west of it.

Further south Russian forces advanced to the gulley east of Novoivanivka, and established control over the rest of the heights up to the reservoirs to the southeast.

+ ~20.90 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Pokrovske direction, Russian forces continued to quickly advance in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast and have captured the village of Ternove.

After breaking through to and capturing Novomykolaivka, Russian forces began advancing towards Berezove from the south and captured the treelines on approach to the village. They also captured the treelines on the heights north of Zaporizke and began bypassing Ternove from the west. Once other forces captured the treelines near the gulley north of Ternove and began pushing southwest towards the treelines north of Berezove, Ukraine was forced to abandon the village.

+ ~17.40 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Prosyana direction, Russian forces continue to advance and have recaptured most of their previously lost positions.

Russian forces pushed further west from the Tolstoi area and captured the rest of the orchards after Ukrainian forces withdrew to Andriivka Klevstove.

Further north, after Ukrainian forces failed to retake the southern part of Zelenyi hai, Russian forces pushed north again and recaptured the rest of the residential part of the village. Ukraine still holds the agricultural complex west of the settlement. The Russians then went on to advance southwest through the treelines to northern Andriivka-Klevstove and entered the village from there, as well as from the east. As a result, most of the village is either under Russian control or in the grey zone, while the highway running into was captured.

+16.20 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Kostyantynivka direction, Russian forces continued to advance and have broken through to the edge of Kostyantynivka.

Russian forces established control over further treeline positions on the tactical heights southeast of Predtechyne, before advancing west down the treeline to the Yahidka Dachas. Ukrainian forces withdrew with little resistance to the Santurynivka District of Kostyantynivka, allowing for the Russians to establish control over these dachas. Consolidation efforts are ongoing.

+ ~5.96 km² in favour of Russia.

Edit: Oh wow, I just saw the map thumbnail with the old frontlines...

The IDF is continuing its systematic efforts to destroy the remaining tower blocks in Gaza City. This video shows an airstrike on a residential building in the Al-Rimal neighborhood.

Another small Geran-2 drone attack on Ukraine tonight. Less than 40 drones, many of which were Gerberas, attacked targets in western Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Donetsk Oblast, southern Kharkiv Oblast, northern Chernihiv Oblast, and possibly Poltava Oblast.

Zaporizhzhia City is under heavy MLRS shelling. At least 15 explosions have been heard.

The Ukrainian GUR published footage showing an FPV drone from their UAV unit striking a Russian Buk-M3 medium-range air defence system near the village of Oleksandrivka, Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

Around 98% of Ukrainian long-range UAVs get shot down by Russian air defence / EW. Ukraine often launches hundreds at a time just for a couple to get through.

The drones that do get through (usually only 1 or 2 each day), and that hit refineries do minor damage as evidenced by footage and satellite imagery, due to how refineries are built, and the drones' small warheads.

The damage done is then repaired within months due to how robust refineries are. This leads to only a temporary loss.

Meanwhile, the figures on Russian refining capabilities always get skewed to show total amount per refinery (per year), and not what is actually lost... which is only part of the refining capabilities for part of a year.

At the same time, everyone seems to be ignoring the hundreds of Russian Geran-2 drone STRIKES (not launches, strikes) per week that are hitting targets of military significance and contributing massively to the overall war of attrition.

But don't worry... just 50 more days and Russia will collapse.

On the northern flank of Siversk, Russian forces continued to advance in the area of the Serebryanskyi Forest, developing their offensive towards Yampil.

Russian forces advanced in three areas. In the east, they continued to push along the northern bank of the Siverskyi Donets River, and advanced for around 900 metres towards the Donetsk-Luhansk regional border.

Further west, the Russians continued to attack towards the Ostrich farm on the northern outskirts of Yampil. The farm is now in the grey zone, as they begin bypassing it towards the railway station and railway bridge.

To the northwest, Russian forces physically cut the Yampil - Zarichne Road, establishing control over new positions in the forests there.

+ ~2.83 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Lyman direction, Russian forces continued to advance in and around Zarichne, and have made additional progress towards connecting their bridgehead to the main Lyman front.

In the north, Russian forces improved their positions south of Kolodyazi, capturing new positions along two parallel treelines. They also captured additional positions in the forest west of Myrne, forcing the Ukrainians to withdraw back into the village.

In the south, Russian forces cleared the rest of central Zarichne, and connected with their bridgehead in the north of the village via Poshtova and Mayakovskoho Streets. Ukrainian forces are attempting to counterattack from the agricultural buildings on the western outskirts of the village, through the grey zone towards the centre.

In the southern part of Zarichne, after reaching the western outskirts, the Russians began pushing south down five residential streets towards the industrial zone in an attempt to squeeze Ukrainian forces out of the southern part of the settlement.

+ ~2.52 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Lyman direction, Russian forces continued their general push south towards Lyman, and have made significant progress over the past five days.

Russian forces advanced on a wide front from Kolodyazi to Derylove. They pushed south down the gulley towards Stavky, capturing new positions in the forested areas, and expanding their zone of control further west. In the direction of Derylove, Russian forces captured new treeline positions on the tactical heights, while other forces entered the Derylove gulley, establishing control over its eastern forests, beginning the efforts to dislodge the remaining Ukrainian soldiers from the gulley.

To the west, Russian forces captured the rest of the southern part of Shandryholove and crossed a tributary of the Nitrius River at one of the dams, establishing a foothold in the northern part of the treeline directly west of Derylove.

To the north, after consolidating along the Drobysheve - Shandryholove Road, the Russians began attacking north up Hutchenka Street, and west from the forest plantations, capturing the southern part of Shandryholove and pushing the Ukrainians to the centre of the village.

+ ~15.01 km² in favour of Russia.
