Daily Ukraine map thread for 1st to 5th September 2025
Highlights: We've returned, and will focus on the changes that occurred on the front whilst away.
At the Kreminna / Lyman direction, fighting continues over Torske and Zarichne, whilst the northern flank continues to fail as Russian forces approach Drobysheve to cut the route - which is well and truly interdicted by drone at this point too. There is also heavy fighting near Serebryanka on the Siversk side of the river as Russian forces continuously attack there.
At Kupiansk, Russian infiltrators raised a flag in the centre of the town before being hit by a drone. We've warned numerous times that the Ukrainians saying the situation under control in this area are lying about the situation, but nothing seems to get done. Regardless, the north half of the town is a grey area and threatens the east bank substantially at this point due to lack of action.
In Western Donetsk and into Dnipropetrovsk oblasts, Russian forces continue to advance here, raising a flag in Novoselivka, whilst flag raising groups occur on both sides near Dachne and Filiya.
In Western Zaporizhia, a recent Russian mechanized assault almost reached Novodanylivka before being destroyed. Another attack occurred near Mala Tokmachka, but went about as well as the previous attacks with AFVs destroyed. Russia forces continue to attack on foot towards Stepnohirsk on the edge of the old reservoir.
At Pokrovsk, Ukrainian forces captured numerous Russian PoWs when they attacked into Boikivka, as well as retook Udachne. Russian forces attacked from Novoekonomischne into Myrnohrad but appear repelled. Note the Russian Naval Infantry force shift in this region.
At Kostyantynivka, Russian forces continue to advance with infiltration groups almost reaching the town.
In more optimistic news for Ukraine, the long range strike campaign has definitely improved. Last night Ryazan refinery was hit again, and fuel storage in Luhansk was also struck. Numerous radar sites and AD sites were struck during August as well.
