RUSSIAN AIRSTRIKES ON UKRAINIAN TEMPORARY DEPLOYMENT POINT (HIGH PRIORITY, REPORTED, RUSSIAN SOURCE, VIDEO):
- Colonelcassad (23:12 UTC): Posts a video showing Russian airstrikes using FAB-500 bombs against a reported Ukrainian temporary deployment point in the Kherson direction, within the area of responsibility of the 18th Army.
- Assessment: This CLAIMS a SUCCESSFUL RUSSIAN AIRSTRIKE on UKRAINIAN FORCES. The USE OF FAB-500 BOMBS indicates SIGNIFICANT DESTRUCTIVE POWER. The LOCATION IN THE KHERSON DIRECTION suggests CONTINUED RUSSIAN PRESSURE in that AREA. The VIDEO FOOTAGE REQUIRES VERIFICATION to CONFIRM THE TARGET AND DAMAGE. If confirmed, this represents a UKRAINIAN LOSS and demonstrates RUSSIAN AIR POWER CAPABILITIES.
EXTENSIVE DRONE ACTIVITY UPDATE (EXTREME PRIORITY, REPORTED, UKRAINIAN & RUSSIAN SOURCES):
- Николаевский Ванёк (23:11 UTC): Provides a detailed list of drone locations:
- 1 in northern Vinnytsia Oblast (westbound).
- 1 between Bila Tserkva and Vasylkiv (westbound).
- 4 near Nizhyn (westbound).
- 7 in northern Poltava Oblast (westbound).
- 1 near Konotop.
- 1 in northern Chernihiv Oblast.
- 5 heading towards/through Kremenchuk.
- 4 near Balakliia.
- 3 near Zlatopil, Kharkiv Oblast.
- 1 southwest of Kharkiv (northwestbound).
- 4 near Pavlohrad (northbound).
- 4 heading towards/through Dnipro.
- 2 heading towards/through Zaporizhzhia.
- 3 west of Zaporizhzhia.
- 2 new drones crossing from Zaporizhzhia Oblast into Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
- Повітряні Сили ЗС України / Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (23:13 UTC): Updates drone movements:
- Drones in Kharkiv region, moving south/southwest/west/northwest.
* Drones in western Sumy region, southwestbound.
* Drones in north, west, and south of Poltava region, west/southwestbound.
* Drones in Chernihiv region, southwestbound.
* Drones in southern Kyiv region, westbound.
* Drones in northern Vinnytsia region, westbound.
* Drones on the border of Poltava and Dnipropetrovsk regions, westbound.
* Drones in south and east of Dnipropetrovsk region, northeast/northwestbound.
* Drones in Zaporizhzhia, northbound.
* Повітряні Сили ЗС України / Air Force of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (23:29 UTC): Warns of a threat of enemy strike UAVs in Zhytomyr Oblast.
- Assessment: This CONFIRMS EXTREMELY WIDESPREAD AND COMPLEX DRONE ACTIVITY across MULTIPLE REGIONS OF UKRAINE. HIGH CONCENTRATIONS are evident in POLTAVA, DNIPROPETROVSK, AND KHARKIV OBLASTS. The ADDITION OF ZHYTOMYR OBLAST to the THREAT LIST further EXPANDS THE AREA OF CONCERN. This SUGGESTS A LARGE-SCALE, COORDINATED RUSSIAN DRONE ATTACK, potentially OVERWHELMING UKRAINIAN AIR DEFENSES.
RUSSIAN FPV DRONE DESTROYS FINNISH ARMORED PERSONNEL CARRIER (APC) (MEDIUM PRIORITY, REPORTED, RUSSIAN SOURCE, VIDEO):
- Colonelcassad (23:21 UTC): Posts a video claiming an FPV drone ("VT-40" from the "Rubicon" center) destroyed a Finnish XA-180 APC belonging to Ukrainian forces during a border crossing on the Sudzha-Yunakivka road.
- Assessment: This CLAIMS A SUCCESSFUL RUSSIAN DRONE STRIKE against a SPECIFIC PIECE OF UKRAINIAN MILITARY EQUIPMENT. The DESTRUCTION OF A FINNISH APC, if CONFIRMED, represents a LOSS FOR UKRAINIAN FORCES and DEMONSTRATES THE EFFECTIVENESS OF RUSSIAN FPV DRONES. The LOCATION NEAR THE BORDER suggests POTENTIAL RUSSIAN ATTEMPTS to INTERDICT UKRAINIAN MOVEMENTS or SUPPLY LINES.
SYRIAN CONFLICT UPDATES (LOW PRIORITY, REPORTED, RUSSIAN SOURCES):
- Рыбарь (23:18 UTC): Will post the main news on Syria, in his second not-formal channel.
- Colonelcassad (23:14 UTC): Reports over 100 casualties on both sides in Latakia, with ongoing sporadic fighting and "fog of war." Claims that if Alawite uprisings are not supported in other provinces, they will struggle against superior HTS forces, potentially backed by Turkey.
- Assessment: NOT DIRECTLY RELEVANT to the WAR IN UKRAINE, but INDICATES CONTINUED INSTABILITY IN SYRIA. The POTENTIAL FOR TURKISH INVOLVEMENT is a NOTABLE FACTOR.
