#Severodonetsk - In a surprise move, #Ukraine has reinforced the city with heavily armed troops and the #UAF foreign legion & counterattacked #Russian Forces. #UAF has reportedly recaptured 20% of the city & Metolkine to the E. This was first reported by pro-#RuAF sources.
This counterattack is evidenced by #NASA FIRMS 1 day data which shows fires in Metolkine & to the NE of previous frontlines in the city. The map below indicates that fighting has dislodged #Russian forces from their previous gains & that #Ukraine has recaptured ground.
#Severodonetsk is a must capture city for #Russia, no matter the cost. Therefore, it is highly likely that #Russia will dump any remaining combat power into the city ASAP to complete the capture. #Ukraine likely realizes this and is merely trying to inflict max casualties.

#Lyman Axis - #Russian troops continue to consolidate on the NE side of the Donets River and captured Yarova today. The small city lies around 7mi/11km NW of Lyman. #Ukrainian troops are retreating from Yarova, and likely Sosnove as well, towards Sviatohirsk.
Heavy fighting was reported in Sosnove, Studenok and Shchurove, but #Ukrainian troops will have to give ground soon to avoid being trapped on the NE of the Donets. #UAF is consolidating in Sviatohirsk, where they will likely make a last stand before retrograding over the river.
#NASA FIRMS Data 2 day pull supports the heavy fighting alleged by both #Ukrainian and #Russian sources. #Russia is trying to consolidate all territory to the NE of the Donets River ASAP to begin an offensive towards #Slovyansk and to isolate remaining #UAF to the E.

#Kherson Axis - The first videos are coming out from the #Ukrainian counteroffensive in Davydiv Brid. The extent of newly captured terrain is unclear but #UAF is moving heavy equipment & troops across the Inhulets River to attack #Russian forces in the area. Videos in next tweet.
This video shows #Ukrainian troops moving into an already liberated settlement of Davydiv Brid. The lack of fighting or tactical posture means the frontlines are likely far away from this position.

#Severodonetsk - #Russian troops have made significant advances in the city today. #RUAF has advanced beyond the city concert hall & have captured government buildings in the city center. Geolocated videos show #RUAF in control of at least 50% of the city. Videos in next tweet.
Videos of #Chechen fighters from today show a tour of the city center. The blue and white roofed building has been geolocated to: 48.94644, 38.49439. The lack of fighting or tactical posture by #Chechen's indicates that the frontlines are far away from this location.
There are rumors that #Ukrainian forces have begun a general withdrawal from the NE side of the Donets River. This is likely to happen soon if it has not happened already, given that #Russian forces are now in a position to trap #UAF into pockets with no escape route to the SW.

#Kherson Axis - #Ukrainian troops have launched a counterattack 40 mi/65km NE of #Kherson City with the stated goal of destroying #Russian supply lines to the N. #Ukraine has captured Davydiv Brid & has gained ground and possibly total control in Lozove, Bilohirka & Andriivka.
This counterattack had to cross the Inhulets River, which had been serving as a defensive boundary and line of contact for #Russia & #Ukraine up to this point. #Ukraine has stated that the #UAF did not cross the river at Davydiv Brid, & instead used a crossing bridge "downriver".
This means that the crossing likely happened somewhere between Bilohirka and Lozove. There are footbridges in that direction, but #Ukraine has moved armor across the river, indicating the use of a pontoon bridge. #Ukraine claims its troops have attacked as far as Kostromka 9km S.

#Mariupol - #Russia has managed to re-open the port in Mariupol with the first ships docking there this week. Their first order of business has been to load up the remaining rolled steel that was produced at #Azovstal by #Ukraine & ship it to Rostov-on-Don, #Russia for offload.
#Russia struggled to initially re-open the port due to anti-ship mines placed by #Ukrainian forces to defend against an amphibious assault. The rolled steel shown below and taken by Russia may be the last ever produced at #Azovstal as its production capability has been destroyed.
Another view of the ships loading the rolled steel at the #Mariupol port that shows more of the port infrastructure. Much of this infrastructure is likely damaged but enough has been repaired to dock and load/unload ships.
