GSUA reported 62 shelling locations today.
Kharkiv-Kup'yans'k
The AFU repulsed an attack in the area of Kozacha Lopan'.
Rumors say the AFU are advancing east in the area of Kup'yans'k, I have not seen any evidence of it so far, so no change.
Kreminna
I consider Zarichne, Tors'ke and Yampil liberated. According to Russian channels (most of them) the AFU attacks in the Kreminna direction from W and NW. There is no evidence of them being in or very close to the town.
Furthermore the RU channels report AFU SOF operating along the P-66 around Chervonopopivka and Pishchane and that area is supposed to be uncontrolled. This means the link between Kreminna and Svatove is cut off. This is all unconfirmed.
There are also rumors about AFU advances to the east of Bilohorivka (south of the SD river), if these are true, the situation might become very interesting this next week.
In the area of Bakhmut-Donetsk, or the meat grinder as I like to call it, the RU forces attacked mostly around Bakhmut. This incredible effort resulted in nothing, except for increased production of Ladas.
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Kozacha Lopan, Odradivka, Spirne, Vyimka, Bakhmutske, Bakhmut, Vesela Dolyna and Pervomaiske
In the northern part of Watermelon county, the AFU are making progress attacking from the north around Zolota Balka. Most of this progress is still unconfirmed, but reports are coming from both sides. According to Russian channels, RuAF retreated to Dudchany.
@serhey_hayday
is reporting the liberation of Luhansk region will begin soon. And about Buryats preforming some kind of circus act 🕊️.
One more thing regarding Kherson. According to these rumors, RuAF retreated 25km. Usually when something sounds too good to be true, it's because it's too good to be true. I'm not saying this is the case, but keep it in mind.
The Kherson region is possibly the most fortified section of the front line that is not the old 2015 front. The Russians have a lot of backup lines with trenches and good cover above their vehicles.
Update
Zelensky him has inherited the air plane of the Ghost of Kyiv and is leading air strikes in the Davydiv Brid region. NATO paratroopers have been deployed behind enemy lines. The ninety meow tank brigade attacks from the north. Enemy panic.
h/t @IntelWalrus
Arkhanhel's'ke and Myroliubivka liberated according to Zelensky. No video evidence, but ill take his word for it.
I already had Myroliubivka as liberated.

Btw, it's not 25km the from the closest previous position. It's 15km for Ukraines advance in about two days. Picture two is FIRMS from yesterday.

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

The AFU are slowly establishing positions on the opposite side of the "river" in Kam'yans'ke, Zaporizhzhia. It's worth mentioning the "river" is probably pretty dry at this point.

This is what it looked like on July 17th when they were first geolocated on that side of the "river". Image
