Kharkiv area. RU forces made their daily attack on Pytomnyk, without success. I had Dementiivka as RU controlled for a while, I saw an attack on RU troops in the town. Some one smarter than me pointed out it might not be RU controlled just because of that. I was wrong. Image
Russian forces are still banging their heads in the Bohorodychne direction. I don't think anyone has control over the town at this point, I believe UA are holding the high ground just south of the town and RU forces are north of town. Image
The RU tactical group under 5th CAAs command are still trying to take the last part of Luhansk oblast, without success. I believe Bilohorivka and Verkhn'okam'yanka are still not under RU control, SH mentioned two villages holding on today. t.me/serhiy_hayday Image
Same old stuff. Gopniks with sneakers, wooden teeth and sibling parents are still trying to take Vuhlehirsʹka TPP. Fighting is ongoing. (Yes that is the RU army) Image
UA forces repulsed RU attacks in the area of Novoselivka Druha, Novomykhailivka and Mykil's'ke.
Mykil's'ke have been in RU control, but I have a feeling the rapists are getting pushed out. Image
Nothing to say about this, except there are a lot of fires. Image
No specific movement in the Kherson area, A lot of fires in the middle part and Oleksandrivka. Image
We have seen several attacks on the Antonovskiy Bridge from the AFU the last two days. I don't believe the intention is to destroy it, I think they are sending a message to the monkeys occupying the area. The message would be: "It's time for you to fuck off" Image
Almost all bridges over the Inhulets river are within artillery range. The blue area is 25km from the front line. Before anyone blows a gasket, this is an indicator, I'm NOT suggesting UA should park M777 at the front line. Image
A small push to the east and Ukrainian forces are very close to the railroad and highway supporting the Snihurivka area. There are ofc the access over the Nova Kakhovka dam, but that road is not as good as the one from Kherson->Snihurivka
This have been circulating on telegram. Asuming this is real, its hilarious they are actually documenting them creating fake evidence of destroying HIMARS. Image
I'm not sure how it is useful to stand the chest of your combat partner and fire PKM in to the air, but it looks fun. Photo is old. Image
Ok, didn't think I had to explain this, but I translated the HIMARS letter with Yandex image translation. Here is the original. Image
Credit @Kartinamaslom5 for the drawing.
I have been told Antonovskiy Bridge was hit by Excalibur, not GMLRS. The Excalibur have a range of at least 40km, up to 60km (70 in testing), the blue circle indicates 40km. ImageImage
Thick black smoke from the forest area west of Izium this morning. ImageImage

The Russians have captured Urozhaine. They have wasted huge resources in doing so.

🧵The situation in Vovchansk is interesting. The map shows geolocated positions the last 8 days h/t @UAControlMap. When the first rumors about an encirclement at the aggregate plant, I thought it was BS. But it appears there is some truth to it, supposedly 83rd VDV. Image
The extent of isolation and the amount of people is unclear. Once interesting thing is the Russians committed one of their best units, 2nd Special Purpose Brigade to fight in the town. We have mostly seen poorly trained and equipped units without mechanized support in this fight

According to RU channels UA withdrew from the Filtration Plant in the east and Zenith in the south. This is good news, since avoiding an encirclement should be a priority at this point. It seems the coke plant and Kvartal high-rises are the current UA strongholds. Image
RU forces continue to try to fully encircle Avdiivka pushing mainly from 3 directions.
It remains to be seen if Ukraine are planning to withdraw from the east side of the city, but I think it's a pretty good idea to do so. Image
UA might chose to fight for the coke plant and Kvartal for a bit, but the gap for the gloc is only 3km and consists of 2 windbreaks. Image

I frequently get questions like:
"Are you ok?"
"What happened?"
"Why did you stop posting?"

So here we go⬇️
Yes I'm ok.

Time.
I have less time to follow Ukraine. I usually spent about 3-4 hours a day to just make my daily threads and going through all the information channels. To be able to keep the information reliable, I have to put in 6-10h per day. I dont have that kind of time anymore.
I lost my best friend in March, so I had go get a new one. He is getting a lot of my attention now. Image
