The Ukrainian general staff reported shellings all along the active frontline. There are also some shellings on the right Bank of the Dnipro in northern Kherson region.
Kupyansk-Svatove
There does not seem to be a lot of movement in this area at the moment.
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Masyutivka, Orlyans'ke, Novoselivs'ke, Miasozharivkaand and Makiivka.
Siversk
The AFU repulsed attacks around Bilohorivka and Verkhn'okam'yans'ke. This area does not move much either.
Bakhmut
Continued attacks on Bakhmut and Soledar. It will be interesting to see if the situation will change now that both sides free up assets in the Kherson region.
Both attacks were repulsed by the AFU.
Donetsk
According to RU telegram, they occupied Optyne. They provided video a video, I think it's likely the took it. According to the RU sources I've seen it is this one down by Donetsk, but here is one by Bakhmut too, so just be aware there could be some confusion.

The AFU repulsed attacks around
Krasnohorivka, Pervomaiske, Nevelsk, Maryinka and Pavlivka
Kherson
I have decided to consider the entire right bank of the Dnipro liberated. Any kind of pockets of resistance should be cut of from their supply lines, in that case this is just a matter of time.
Ukraine liberated 4967 km2 according to my map.
Thread from yesterday about the UA strategy in Kherson and what this win means.
Kinburn peninsula rumors.
I think the language in this video is extremely vague and avoiding. I don't think this is confirmations of ongoing operations on the peninsula.
"Time will tell" GeromanAT - 2022

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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
