Clearer footage of the Oreshnik strike. Reportedly, this was not the Stryi underground gas facility. I'm working to confirm this now.
Based on a geolocation of the POV of footage showing the Oreshnik IRBM strike on Lviv, we can determine that the target was the Lviv State Aviation Repair Plant.
The plant, which repairs MiG-29 fighter jets, appears to have still be in operation prior to the strike. It was hit by 36 MIRVs from the Oreshnik missile.

Under heavy artillery cover, STG government forces have launched their full-scale ground offensive against the SDF-held Kurdish-majority Al-Ashrafiya and Shekh Masoud Neighbourhoods in northern Aleppo. The two main epicentres of fighting right now are inβ¦
Approximate situation in northern Aleppo:
After around 36 hours of intense fighting, STG government forces have managed to clear around 75% of SDF-held territory in the Kurdish-majority neighbourhoods, and is beginning its final assault on the central Sheikh Maqsoud District.
So far during the offensive, they were able to capture the industrial district (very quickly) and the youth housing district in the north, reaching the northern edge of Sheikh Maqsoud.
In the east, the STG secured the rest of the Ayn at-Tal Industrial Zone, the Hulluk District, and the Bustan al-Pasha District, which lie east of the river and previously acted as a buffer for Sheikh Maqsoud. From there, they crossed the river and entered the Farouj Ammar Neighbourhood in the southeastern part of Sheikh Maqsoud, which contains one of the highest elevation points in the area. Due to heavy shelling, the SDF largely withdrew from the exposed areas towards the centre of Sheikh Maqsoud, while STG soldiers are attempting to accumulate in the large grey-zone.
In the south, following earlier setbacks, STG forces captured the entirety of the Ashrafiyeh and Assyrian Quarter Districts, reaching Sheikh Maqsoud from the south.
In the west, the STG captured the entirety of the Bani Zaid District, and began attacking STG defences in western Sheikh Maqsoud.

I'm seeing a lot of people claim that this is the wrong location, so I've lined up the two houses to show that they are exactly the same.

Russia has used a Geran-5 jet-drone in combat for the first time.
The Geran-5 has a maximum flight speed of 400-600 km/h, a range of around 1,000 km, a maximum altitude of around 2,000 metres, and a warhead size of 90 kg (same as Geran-2).
According to the Ukrainian Main Intelligence Directorate, Geran-5 drones will likely be launched from Su-25 aircraft in the future, and it may be equipped with R-73 air-to-air missiles as a counter-meausure at some point too.
It was used to strike a target in the vicinity of Kryvyi Rih, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, yesterday afternoon.

Russia is reportedly planning to carry out tests with new missiles launched from strategic bombers in the near future.
These include:
Kh-BD-K cruise missile, which are carried by Tu-95MS bombers. They are similar to Kh-101s, but have an improved guidance system and can fly at higher altitudes of 30-70 metres.
Kh-99 hypersonic cruise missiles, which are carried by Tu-160M bombers. They can fly at speeds of up to 6,600 km/h and have a range of up to 5,500 km.
Kh-MC supersonic anti-ship missiles, which are carried by all strategic bombers. They can fly at speeds of up to 4,200 km/h and have a range of 900 km. These are very similar to Kh-22 missiles.
