Appears that Ukrainian forces are back in control of Sviatohirsk. Images shared online show the Ukrainian flag at the city council building and soldiers in the city across the river from the Sviatohirsk Lavra. ImageImageImageImage
There are also photos/videos from Bohorodychne nearby. This video shows what's left of the city's monastery buildings, one of which was destroyed on May 17 by an apparent Russian cruise missile strike.
The Bohorodychne video in last tweet was shared by the Donetsk regional admininstration on social media in the past hour. YouTube link here:

There's another video from a war correspondent, Oleg Dudka, here:
Some more photos from #Bohorodychne after Russian forces were driven out, from local @KarachunMedia outlet.

Seeing folks point out people on the roof shortly before the drone strike at the Kremlin proves something fishy was happening (false flag, etc).

But, as RFE/RL's @kromark noted—this appears to be video of the *second* drone and the people were checking out damage from the first.
Evidence for this comes from two videos from a Moscow broadcaster showing the strikes.

In the first, the Spasskaya Tower clock shows the time at ~2:27am and shows the drone splash fire on the domed Kremlin building.

In the second video, the time on the Spasskaya Tower clock sits at around 2:43am. You can also see the drone impact more closely resembles the impact in the video with the people present (closer to flagpole, no splash of fire on the roof).

The attachments to the government's Motion in Support of Pretrial Detention for Jack Teixeira that just dropped has some interesting bits in it.

Here's an interaction on Discord where Teixeira seems confident the leaks can't be traced back to him (oops).

Also includes some conversations Jack had with other users once his images started making the rounds outside the servers he was active in.

And there's the farewell message he wrote in March that @AricToler already dug up. ImageImageImage
Part of the government's argument that Teixeira is a flight risk is that they found a destroyed Xbox, tablet and laptop in a dumpster at his home and say that it shows that he was destroying evidence. ImageImageImageImage

Latest @Newsy + @bellingcat investigation is on Ukraine’s cultural heritage, which has become another front in Russia’s war in Ukraine. @MaximEdwards and I looked at multiple sites that’ve been damaged since the invasion began. Video by @vandiche here:
One particular area that’s been hit hard is the famous Sviatohirsk Lavra near the border of the Donetsk/Kharkiv Oblasts.

The Lavra itself has been shelled at least 3 times since early March and 5 other church buildings associated with the Lavra have been damaged or destroyed. Image
The first incident was March 12 when a large explosion caused widespread damage at the Lavra.
The Lavra square, near a bridge that spans the Donets River, was the most heavily-affected area and buildings as far away as 250m from that site were damaged. Image

Quick thread with some previous Tochka uses in Ukraine so far. On February 24 there was evidence of a strike near a hospital in Vuhledar in the Donetsk oblast:
On March 1 there was the strike in Mariupol that Eliot quote tweeted above. There were photos of both the Tochka tail section and submunitions nearby: ImageImageImageImage
On March 12 Ukraine's National Police shared images of a Tochka tail section saying it was used near Avdiivka just north of Donetsk: facebook.com/UA.National.Po… ImageImageImage
