Kupyansk
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Masyutivka, Novoselivs'ke. Thigs seems fairly calm in this direction.
Siversk
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Bilohorivka and Verkhn'okam'yans'ke.
Bakhmut
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Orikhovo-Vasylivka, Hryhorivka, Bohdanivka, Ivanivske, Predtechyne and Severnye.
RuAFs main focus is sill the north side of Bakhmut. It also looks like RuAFs attempts to advance in a northern direction have decreased. A lot of fighting is going on in the north and south part of the city where the daily advance is measured in meters single/double digits)
This is a 1 week comparison of the RuAF line around Bakhmut where the orange line is from 2023-03-14.
Avdiivka
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Berdychi, Novobakhmutivka, Krasnohorivka, Avdiivka, Severne and Pervomaiske.
Based on RU and UA reports I believe RuAF have managed to advance up to the railway west of Krashnohorivka
I've made two corrections of the frontline in the Donetsk area. The eastern correction gives back control of a UA stronghold to the AFU, a bad geolocation put it in RU control. h/t @1LonelyPhoenix
The western correction was based on a new geolocation.
Donetsk
The AFU repulsed attacks in the area of Marinka, and Pobieda

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?
I have seen speculations about some of the HEU and centrifuges being moved to the new underground facilities (UGF) south west of Natanz main compound. I do not belive this is the case, I think the tunnel complex to the SW of the main facility is unfinished. Here is why
The main compound is secured by at least five layers of fencing and walls, with three checkpoints required to enter the facility.
Compare this to the new UGF complex to the SW.
Only two tunnels have extra fencing, the wall and fencing around it is incomplete. There are clear sings of construction work going in near the tunnel entrances.
A lot of people are asking what we see in this image.
The two orange circles show where the impacts were, 3 holes at each circle making it 6 in total. There is no other visible damage.
