Russia continues the offensive against Ukraine with the support of aircraft and the use of high-precision weapons.

The enemy's main efforts are for the capture of Kyiv, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Mariupol, Mykolayiv and to reach to boundaries of Luhansk and Donetsk regions. 1/7

Russia's puppet state Belarus may still plan to include its army in the invasion force. Six Lukashenka regime battle groups are noted as mobilizing to join the offensive. But the morale of Belarusian soldiers is extremely low. They don't want to fight alongside Russians. 2/7

The Russians have substantial forces tied up protecting extended and vulnerable supply lines. Their combat units at the front are insufficient to lay siege to Kyiv. Attempting to storm the city from several directions, the enemy suffers heavy losses from Ukrainian defenders. 3/7

The main forces of the 74th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade, Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, continue to rebuild a pontoon crossing and will soon try to cross the Desna River in the northeast of Ukraine. 4/7

In the Hlukhiv area in Sumy region, only 12km from the UA-RU frontier, five Russian battle groups from the 90th Infantry Division and four battle groups from the 2nd Army of the Central Military District tried to organize an offensive. Ukrainian defenders stopped them. 5/7

The Russians have not given up on the idea of breaking out and making a dash for Zaporizhia and Dnipro. Ukrainian defenders thwarted an enemy offensive at Troitske and stopped an attempt to take Ternivka – forcing the Russians to return to original areas of concentration. 6/7

Over the past 24 hourse the enemy did not take active action in the waters of the Black Sea and Sea of Azov. Missile strikes on government and military targets from Black Sea Fleet and Caspian Flotilla ships are possible. 7/7
