Daily Ukraine map thread for Wednesday 29th April 2026
Highlights: Today we zoom out, to look at a handful of the strikes done this month (April) alone. In one of the longest successful strikes thus far, Perm pumping station was hit by a strike causing two large storage tanks to burn heavily. A Lyuity type drone also reached Orsk refinery near the Kazakhstan border.
In a rare interesting midstrike, a forward operating base for Russian army aviation was struck, destroying an Mi-17 and Mi-28.
On the front, the flanks at Kostyantynivka are under severe pressure. The entire Kostyantynivka to west of Siversk area is under severe threat.
Elsewhere, we've pulled Russian presence back. The Dniper islands, which we hadn't touched for quite some time, as one example.

An early one today, showcasing just some of the mid and long range strikes of the past couple of days.
Other long range strikes not included include the Karakurt class Tucha hit in the Caspian sea, more strikes on warehouses and logistics, Rostov being and Yaroslavl refinery burning again. There are many other strikes, also included on the map which you can find via the link in our profile. Many thanks to the geolocators here.
Very little change on the front, still heavy infantry pressure on the front, but the distinct lack of vehicles means Russia can't really capitalise on any of it and they just end up out of position and eliminated. Those new plinths at the memorials aren't going to fill themselves.

Highlights: A focus of a months worth of publically published geolocations at one of the most hectic sites at the front, the town of Kostyantynivka. Russian infiltrators have taken heavily casualties but have been sighted numerous times infiltrating into the central part of town.
Elsewhere, a Ukrainian drone struck an apartment in Mosfilm Tower. No further significant damage was recorded at Primorsk on satellite imagery after the strikes there.

Ukraine deep strikes into the occupied territories continue to wreak havoc, with logistics points hit across the back line and no sign of it slowing down.
Prymary drones struck two landing ships in Sevastopol - notably NOT Fire Point drones.
Tuapse was struck further, causing massive smoke clouds across the area. It appears to be burning at multiple points, but as always, we'll wait for the full damage assessment - right now we estimate approximately 8 storage tanks have gone up, so there's plenty more to hit.
2/ Many storage tanks on fire following an extensive attack by Ukraine on the oil depot in Tuapse, Russia. POV

Daily Ukraine map thread for Thursday 26th March 2026
Leningrad Oblast and St Petersburg have had a bad week, with Ukrainian drone halting 40% of Russian Baltic oil exports with strikes at Primorsk (destroying at least 6 large storage tanks and hits on the oil terminal with tankers hit), Ust-Luga destroying numerous tanks and hitting the export facilities, and then a seemingly strange one of a strike in Vyborg which caused an icebreaker to collapse onto the ship next to it.
On the front, Russian forces still attempt to push forwards, but there's no significant changes to report as Ukraine are denying them constantly, and long range drone strikes continue to batter Russian logistics. Geolocations follow:
