Shelling locations reported by UA general staff today.
Overview images
Kupansk-Svatove
Positional battles ongoing in this area, no significant change. RU media claims they advance in to western Dvorichna but it's denied by a local channel t.me/ivan_dvorichna
Kreminna-Siversk
RuAF have made some progress in the direction of Yampolivka, these assaults are supposedly made by RU 76th GAAD and BARS-13.
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Kreminna, Shipylivka and Verkhn'okam'yans'ke.
RuAF claims to have taken Bilohorivka but this was refuted by Serhiy Hayday. GSUA reported a repulsed attack in the area of Shypylivka. Which could indicate a slight advance by the AFU. It could also be north of the river...
Bakhmut
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Blahodatne, Krasna Hora, Paraskoviivka and Bakhmut. According to UA defense analyst "CDS" The 241st Territorial Defense Brigade was moved to Blahodatne and counter attacked with success.
Units of 93rd Mechanized Brigade was moved to the area between Bakhmut and Siversk to stop the RU advance. Some positional battles have been going on around Mykolaivka. RuAF are trying to advance in the Vasyukivka and Rozdolivka direction without success.
CDS: "The withdrawal of the remnants of the 'Wagner' PMC detachments from under Bakhmut is underway."

CRybar states
"Bakhmut: Statements about a breakthrough in the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are not true - Ukrainian formations continue to resist."
RuAF are making some progress in the NE residential areas of Bakhmut. Red dots are geolocated RU positions. Fighting is intense.
Bakhmut S
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Ivanivske and Klishchiivka. Russian pizda continues to attack in the forest in the canal attempting to reach the T-0504 intersection to Chasiv Yar.
Since GSUA are still reporting attacks in the area of Klishchiivka I _assume_ AFU still controls the fortified heights north of the town. I have not seen any signs of progress by RuAF south of Bakhmut the last few days.
Vuhledar
No major change now for a week. One UA telegram claims there are favorable conditions for a UA counter attack in the direction of Novodonets'ke and Novomaiors'ke. I don't think that is true. I think it's Psyops.
The favorable conditions supposedly raised when some of the Naval infantry units withdrew due to heavy losses. We do need to keep in mind RuAF have accumulated up to 20000 troops in the area between Vuhledar and Mariupol.
Ru telegram channels are also talking about an AFU counter attack, they claim AFU have sent significant reinforcements to the area. This is however not strange considering the 20k Ru troops. I suspect the AFU potential reinforcements are intended for defense/relief.
I suspect all this talk about UA offensive is just a way for the Russians to explain losses without having done any progress. It's just how things work in Russia, you just lie to cover up other lies.
That is exactly how they will claim "victory" in Ukraine even if they are kicked back to 1991 borders.

"We prevented a NATO invasion on RU territory by stopping them already in Ukraine, once again our heroic army have stopped a Nazi opponent trying to destroy Russia."
Vuhledar update by @Tatarigami_UA this morning. The best way to stay informed regarding Vuhledar at this point is just to wait for his updates. 7
Luhansk Airport January
This is one of the targets which will become in range once Ukraine receive longer range fires like GLSDB. I counted almost 20 helicopters at this location alone.
More targets in RU occupied areas which will be in range with 150km weapons. I have a long list of these and I patiently wait for holes to appeaser in the roofs.
