I don't have much news for today, so this will be light.
There were a lot of shelling reports out of Sumy today. I do not believe any of these targets were shelled very heavily. Likely 2 or 3 shells in each location.
Russians continue their attacks around Kreminna without any success.
The greater Bakhmut area is without much change. Perhaps small advances toward Bohdanivka, a few hundred meters perhaps.
Russian control over the eastern side of the Bakhmutivka River is growing. One of my sources told me Russia controls the entire eastern side of the river, but I cannot confirm that.
In the Avdiivka area, Russia is attacking Novobakhmutivka, Krasnohorivka, Kamyanka, Sjeverne, and Pervomaiske. All with minimal, if any, changes.
The attack toward Pervomaiske from Vodyane (highlighted arrow) seems to be having the best results for Russia in this area. Russia is also attacking Nevelske, where they hope to eventually break through Ukrainian defenses. So far, failure.
In my opinion, Russia is trying to break through Nevelske so they can attack the city of Krasnohorivka from the north, and then continue pushing west toward Karlivka (or north to Pervomaiske if Ukraine still controls it )
In the Marinka area, Russia is continuing to attack Marinka itself without much progress. They are destroying buildings in the city one at a time (and there aren't many left) trying to break the Ukrainian defense.
They are also attacking south toward Pobjeda. There may be Russian progress here toward the town. They have reached the town with assault groups before, but were beaten back. The more recent attacks may have dug in to new positions, I am not sure.
Russia is attacking Pobjeda in an effort to bypass Marinka. I think they would likely attack south toward Kostyantynivka and north toward Heorhiivka and Kurakhove if they capture Pobjeda.
The string of settlements behind Novomykhailivka ( Kostyantynivka, Illinka, Uspenivka, Bohoyavlenka, and the other smaller settlements between them), in my opinion, are a serious impediment to Russia's advance in this area.
Ukraine struck Volnovakha multiple times today, perhaps with GMLRS.
Ukraine also heavily shelled Polohy.
Ukraine stated today that they destroyed several Russian assets on Kinburn Spit, but I believe this was confirmation of attacks from yesterday and not a new strike.

Here are changes to my map. It will be my update for today. #ukrdailyupdate

First, the Avdiivka area. I changed the area between Novoselivka Druha and Krasnohorivka to a gray area (A). I am not sure if Russia ever really controlled that area. Image
Russians claim they are attacking Avdiivka from the direction of Spartak. They may be attacking Zenit. I am not sure. I have the arrow pointing at Avdiivka, but they may mean Zenit. (B)

Here is an update for March 4th, 2023. #ukrdailyupdate (shhh)

If you would like to view the map: map.ukrdailyupdate.com
Russians are heavily shelling Kupyansk, Dvorichna, Petropavlivka, and the areas between them. They are looking for crossing points across the Oskil river north of Dvorichna, and we may see an attempt to cross the river in the future.
Russians have made several attempts to attack Novoselivske (1) and Stelmakhivka (2) without success.

Lately there have been rumors of Ukraine recapturing Hryanykivka. I asked for clarification of this position. First, the town is mostly a gray area. A no mans land. Russia never captured the town.
I've marked their area of control in the forests. Nobody is defending positions within the town, it is too dangerous.
In the Avdiivka area, Russia has progress near Sjeverne and Pervomaiske.

Russians cry of explosions in Donetsk, Makiivka, Khartsyzk, Debaltsevo, Ilovaisk, and Mariupol.
Donetsk and Makiivka are both basically in artillery range so not too interesting. Ilovaisk is a railway hub that Ukraine regularly shoots missiles into. Kartsyzk is town north of Ilovaisk. Debaltseve is like halfway between Horlivka and Alchevsk so easily HIMARS range.
Mariupol is the big questionmark here. Or exclamation point, depending how you look at it.

News for today #ukrdailyupdate

In the Kupyansk area there is ongoing fighting in the forests. Ukraine performed heavier than usual artillery strikes in this area. I don't know of any territorial changes.
The Kreminna and Siversk areas are more or less status quo. Fighting in the forests near Kreminna, fighting near Bilohorivka south of Kreminna, and minor fighting in all of the front line towns around Siversk. No changes.
