75 shelling locations were reported by GSUA today. Image
FIRMS Data: 2022-09-25_18:20
Added 31 locations to kml
Filtered 30 locations by proximity to other fires
Removed 57 false positives Image
Kup'yans'k
Based on shelling locations, I believe the AFU has established 2 bridgeheads in the Kup'yans'k area. Image
Lyman.
I belive the AFU has established atleast 5 crossings over the Oskil and SD river. The reason the russians are prepared to defend Lyman until the last man, is it's a key blocking positions for the axis of advance east of the Zherebets river. Image
Once Lyman falls, the axis west of Zherebets will have their flank protected by the eastern axis and they can start advancing towards Svatove.
RuAF have moved some reinforcements to the Siversk-Soledar area, but i do not think they will pose a threat to the AFU offensive.
Bakhmut
The AFU repulsed RuAF attacks in the area of Vymika, Soledar, Zaitseve and Kurdyumivka. It seems like RuAF have spread their forces more evenly along the line rather than focusing on the south side of Bakhmut. Image
I do not see any risk of Bakhmut being captured by RuAF in the foreseeable future.
Donetsk
RuAF tried to advance in the area of Pervomais'ke, Novomykhailivka and Pavlivka. They were plagued by smoking accidents and had to turn around. Image
Kherson
Not a lot of news is coming out of here. Kherson police reported the Russians are shelling the town Arkhanhel's'ke (not close to/in the area of). I think this indicates the AFU are in the town, but RuAF might also be in the other part of the town. Image
Russian hero. I'm sorry I forgot where I found it, so I can not give credit.
I was asked to draw why Lyman is important to the Russians. I hope this explains it.
With Ru in Lyman, the southern axis of advance towards Svatove will vulnerable. ImageImage

Ukrainian Drone hit the Deng Xiaoping Logistics Complex which is part of the Alabuga Special Economical Zone. The Alabuga SEZ is where they produce the Shahed drone.
The DXLC is a railway logistics center being built in partnership with China to support the fast growing Alabuga SEZ. Image
At the actual SEZ they are expanding at a rapid pace, they are building on site housing and/or office space for tens of thousands of employees. Their goal is likely to significantly scale up the production of drones. Image

This is an interesting case. The local municipality decided to investigate their legal options to force the church to move.
Nothing says church like high metal fences, guard dogs and military age males in hoodies. Image

The reason the confidence is low, is a lack of data. They simply dont have enough information to know yet. Desplite that, the US President proclaims complete destruction, an assesment likely based more on his whishes than any intelligence.
Image
Furthermore, they are trying to supress any discussion about this and might actually prevent the DIA to do their job properly, they know a negative report will not be precieved well by the White House. Image
Hegseth also tells a story which does not align with reality. We have all seen the pictures. There isnt a mountain of rubble. Hegseth says he have seen it all, and i wonder if it was during his time as prison guard or if it was during his time as a instructor? Image

I have seen speculations about some of the HEU and centrifuges being moved to the new underground facilities (UGF) south west of Natanz main compound. I do not belive this is the case, I think the tunnel complex to the SW of the main facility is unfinished. Here is why Image
The main compound is secured by at least five layers of fencing and walls, with three checkpoints required to enter the facility. Image
Compare this to the new UGF complex to the SW.
Only two tunnels have extra fencing, the wall and fencing around it is incomplete. There are clear sings of construction work going in near the tunnel entrances. Image

A lot of people are asking what we see in this image.
The two orange circles show where the impacts were, 3 holes at each circle making it 6 in total. There is no other visible damage.
