There's been a Ukr missile strike at Novaya Kakhovka in #Kherson region where a Saltpeter (Potassium Nitrate) warehouse was hit. Adjacent residential buildings were also affected. Reportedly a Himars was used.
Local authorities report dead & wounded. No numbers given yet

Just a reminder, Potassium Nitrate is what exploded in Beirut a couple of years ago

No major movements on the active frontlines.
There is a lot of artillery/missile strikes on Ukr units on the frontline and in their rear.
The latest to be hit is the 58th Motorised Bgd at Ivano-Darievka & it's base in Bakhmut

Major units that have been hit in past 2-3 days (mentioned in reports) incl, 72 Mech Bgd, 26 Artillery Bgd, 25 Airborne & 58th Moto Bgd.

Morning explosions in the area to the east of #Nikolaev.

Judging by the characteristic appearance of the smoke plume and the absence of any industrial facilities in the area, an ammunition depot was the target with a high degree of probability.

There are rumours that a Himars launcher with rockets has been acquired by the Russians.
The price mentioned is:
$880 000 for the vehicle
$300 000 for the rockets
The arrangement reportedly was for the Ukr to "abandon" it in the gray zone & a Rus patrol would find it

Rybar has posted about this and they don't usually post stuff without substance. They're also believed to have connections with Russian Intel.
Acc to them, they expect it to be confirmed one way or the other within 2 weeks

Hv fighting along the frontline but no major movements. The Rus are continuing to degrade the Ukr units with the 13th Mech Bgd being the latest focus of attention. Most units are estimated to have suffered losses from 30 up to 80% in some cases (79 bgd)

Only the 111th, 112th & 4th Tank Bgd (blue circles) are not mentioned in reports which should mean they're in good shape

Video from the overnight attack

Acc to sources from the LPR forces, they believe a longer range Himars rocket was used ...with 150km range
Tochka-U missiles were also fired

MLRS, whether Uragan, Smerch or HIMARS, are a simple target for a layered air def system, and they are shot down in large numbers.

Ukr uses the tactic of massive combined shelling of objects that are poorly covered by air def.

There's a suggestion (link below) the Tochka-U vehicles recently shown in videos might be Credo-1C (1L268) radar reconnaissance system for ground targets.

Although IMO there's too many of them for all to be radar vehicles
