Kupyansk-Svatove
The AFU replused an attack in the area of Novoselivs'ke.
RuAF possibly pushed AFU out of Syn'kivka, but I have no visual evidence.
RuAF are sending reinforcements from the 1st Guards Tank Army to the Kupyansk area.
Kreminna
The AFU repulsed an attack in the area of Chervonopopivka.
RuAF are increasing the intensity of attacks in the area and are making advances in the Ploshcanska and Dibrova area.
RU engineering units have been removing mines in the Kreminna area for a while, recently in the Yampolivka direction. The removal of mines is most likely preparation for an offensive.
Siversk
Ukrainian Bats, Camels and gene modified soldiers replused attacks in the area of Shypylivka, Bilohorivka, Verkhn'okam'yans'ke, Spirne and Berestove.
Bakhmut
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Fedorivka, Orikhovo-Vasylivka, Dubovo-Vasylivka, Krasna Hora, Paraskoviivka, Bakhmut, Ivanivske and Chasiv Yar.
Clear advanced by RuAF both north and south of Bakhmut, the envelopment is getting more and more narrow. At this rate I think it's a matter of days rather than weeks before the AFU gives the order to evacuate.
Donetsk
Kam'yanka, Avdiivka, Vodyane, Pervomais'ke, Krasnohorivka and Mar'inka. RuAF have still not captured Mar'inka despite claims late last year. They still attack just as much as before but the quality of the attacks have dropped.
Vuhledar
The AFU repulsed an attack in the direction of Bohoyavlenka. I use the word "direction" since the Russians are no where near Bohoyavlenka. They are busy getting blown up south of Vuhledar.

🧵The situation in Vovchansk is interesting. The map shows geolocated positions the last 8 days h/t @UAControlMap. When the first rumors about an encirclement at the aggregate plant, I thought it was BS. But it appears there is some truth to it, supposedly 83rd VDV.
The extent of isolation and the amount of people is unclear. Once interesting thing is the Russians committed one of their best units, 2nd Special Purpose Brigade to fight in the town. We have mostly seen poorly trained and equipped units without mechanized support in this fight
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.
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.
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.
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.
🧵During the last week, Ukrainian forces have advanced 32km2 in the Robotyne direction. They are expanding their penetration of the Surovikin and have reached the outskirts of Verbove and Verbove.
