Svatove
The AFU repulsed an attack in the Stel'makhivka area. It's pretty quiet from this area at the moment. Not a lot of news coming from this area at the moment.
Kreminna-Siversk
76th Guards Air Assault division and BARS are slowly advancing in the Kreminna area.
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Bilohorivka and Kreminna forest .
Bakhmut
The AFU have managed to hold back RuAF from Ivanivske and from crossing the T-0504 road. Attacks there seems to have slowed down slightly. It seems RuAF are focusing more in the area north of Bakhmut where they have had more success.
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Fedorivka, Orihovo-Vasylivka, Dubovo-Vasylivka, Berkhivka, Yagidne and Maloiliinivka (which I cant find).
Donetsk
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Novobakhmutivka, Avdiivka, Vodyane, Nevel's'ke, Mar'inka and Pobjeda. As usual not a lot of movement in this area.
Vuhledar
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Vuhledar and Prechystivka.

Give her a follow so you don't miss any her videos (or just give her a follow because she is a cool person who is doing A LOT to help Ukraine).
🧵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.
