Situation Update (UTC)

Key reported developments

  • Yaroslavl refinery fire — ASTRA OSINT geolocation identifies YANOS (ASTRA, 02:47:04–02:47:05 UTC; confidence HIGH for geolocation and existence of a large night fire at the identified facility; MEDIUM for "drone attack" attribution and specific unit burned): ASTRA's OSINT analysis geolocates the nighttime fire glow to the "Slavneft-YANOS" refinery (Moskovsky Prospekt 130, Yaroslavl), a top-5 Russian refinery (~15 Mt/yr, ~300 kb/d) producing jet fuel, diesel, and gasoline for Central/NW Russia, Moscow region, airports, and military-industrial sites. The photo is matched to a residential vantage at pr. Frunze 77A via 3D/satellite overlays. ASTRA notes prior strikes on the same plant: 28 August 2026 (AVT-4 primary distillation unit) and 17 September 2026 (AVT-3, ~40% of capacity; plant shut down). No official Rosneft/YANOS or MoD confirmation of the 3 November event is supplied. No post-event satellite damage imagery is included. (Event time: night of 2–3 November; source timestamp 02:47 UTC.)

  • Операция Z detailed strike narrative — claims specific weapon types and targets across six oblasts (Операция Z, 02:43:37 UTC; confidence LOW for factual content): A Russian military-blogger channel (citing "Voencor of Russkaya Vesna") claims: 5 "Tsirkon" hypersonic missiles on Ladyzhyn TES (Vinnytsia Oblast); 2 ballistic series on Dnipropetrovsk energy; Kh-101 cruise missiles from Tu-95MS; 6 "Iskander-M/KN-23" on Zelenodolsk (Dnipropetrovsk Oblast); 4 "Tsirkon" on Ladyzhyn; Kharkiv under ballistic and KAB attack; reactive "Geran" drones on energy; Zhytomyr "completely de-energized" with water loss after a reactive drone strike; Gerani hitting western distribution substations; up to 40 Iskander-M in reserve; ~20 cruise missiles from Tu-160 launched (ETA ~30 min). No Russian MoD statement, Ukrainian Air Force confirmation of specific weapon types, or independent damage verification is supplied for any item. This is a single-source narrative account. (Source timestamp 02:43:37 UTC.)

  • Kharkiv heating disruption and emergency electricity schedules confirmed (ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS, 02:33:02 UTC; confidence MEDIUM): A Ukrainian Telegram channel reports that after strikes on Kharkiv, the city is experiencing heating disruptions and has moved to emergency electricity-disconnection schedules. This is consistent with the prior-baseline ТАСС/UNIAN report of heating-service disruptions (02:16 UTC) and the Kharkiv OVA context. No municipal operator statement, schedule details, or restoration timeline is supplied. (Source timestamp 02:33:02 UTC.)

  • New UAV/jet-UAV and KAB alerts, 02:26–02:45 UTC (Повітряні Сили; confidence HIGH for issuance; LOW for materialisation): Air Force reports jet UAVs from the Black Sea toward Mykolaiv Oblast (02:26:24); a UAV toward Zolotonosha, Cherkasy Oblast (02:27:25); KABs on Zaporizhzhia Oblast (02:32:27); a jet UAV toward Synelnykove past Pavlohrad, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast (02:37:33); a jet UAV from Bryansk Oblast toward northern Chernihiv Oblast (02:38:49); a jet UAV past the Chernobyl NPP exclusion zone toward the west, Kyiv Oblast (02:40:03); a UAV toward Kharkiv from the north (02:45:10); and KABs on Donetsk Oblast (02:45:45). No impacts, interceptions, or debris confirmed. (Source timestamps 02:26:24–02:45:45 UTC.)

  • Moscow: Sobyanin claims 13 UAVs reflected (ТАСС, 02:39:32 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for statement issuance; LOW for count): Moscow Mayor Sobyanin states 13 drones were "reflected" toward Moscow. This adds a new figure to the prior-baseline 84-UAV claim (01:30 UTC). No independent tracking or debris evidence is supplied. (Source timestamp 02:39:32 UTC.)

  • Nikolaevsky Vanek: Tu-160 pre-launch maneuvers, missile wave forecast 05:20–06:00 UTC (Николаевский Ванёк, 02:34:24 UTC; confidence LOW): A single OSINT source claims pre-launch maneuvers by Tu-160M bombers "from some swamps" and forecasts a missile wave entering Ukrainian airspace at approximately 05:20–06:00 UTC. No Air Force, MoD, or independent tracking confirmation is supplied. This follows the prior-baseline Tu-95MS "roosters leaving" claim (02:13 UTC). (Source timestamp 02:34:24 UTC.)

  • Russian propaganda: "Liberated Dobropillya" claim in MoD/TASS award video (ТАСС, 02:40:01–02:40:02 UTC; confidence HIGH for video existence; LOW for territorial claim): ТАSS/MoD video shows a Guards Brigade of the "Center" group receiving the Order of Suvorov, with the caption claiming the unit "liberated Dobropillya." The analysis notes Dobropillya (Donetsk Oblast) remains under Ukrainian control per open-source geolocated evidence; the claim is assessed as territorial-preemption propaganda. (Source timestamp 02:40:01 UTC.)

  • Oleshky evacuation: document-restoration assistance reported (ТАСС, 02:46:17 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for statement issuance): Kherson Oblast ombudsman Georgiev tells ТАSS that each evacuee from Oleshky receives personal assistance restoring documents. This is a Russian-language official statement from the occupied-administration side. No independent verification of the assistance program's scope or effectiveness is supplied. (Source timestamp 02:46:17 UTC.)

Reported situation by area

Yaroslavl Oblast, Russia:

  • New (02:23–02:47 UTC): ASTRA publishes a detailed OSINT analysis identifying the burning facility as Slavneft-YANOS refinery, geolocating the observer to pr. Frunze 77A via 3D/satellite matching. ASTRA notes prior strikes on the same plant (28 Aug: AVT-4; 17 Sep: AVT-3, ~40% capacity, plant shut down). Exilenova+ reposts additional video (02:23) and a photo with "Ярославль😎" caption (02:26), framing the event as part of a "fifth consecutive night" of refinery strikes. No official Russian confirmation of a strike, cause, or damage extent is supplied. (Confidence HIGH for geolocation/fire existence per ASTRA methodology; MEDIUM for attribution to a drone strike; LOW for "fifth consecutive night" narrative and specific unit burned.)
  • Prior baseline carried forward: Governor Evraev traffic suspension and "repelling an attack" statement (01:30 UTC); first Exilenova+ fire video (01:37 UTC); "three focal points" claim (02:10 UTC, repost).

Kharkiv Oblast / Kharkiv city:

  • New (02:33–02:45 UTC): ЦАПЛІЄНКО reports heating disruptions and emergency electricity-disconnection schedules after strikes (02:33 UTC). Air Force reports a UAV toward Kharkiv from the north (02:45:10 UTC).
  • Prior baseline carried forward: Medical-facility strike, four injured, heavy damage (Terekhov, 02:05 UTC); fast target on Kharkiv (01:59 UTC); ТАСС/UNIAN heating-disruption report (02:16 UTC); combined ballistic+KAB strike 01:19–01:46 UTC.

Dnipropetrovsk Oblast:

  • New (02:37 UTC): Air Force reports a jet UAV toward Synelnykove past Pavlohrad (02:37:33 UTC). No impact confirmed.

  • Prior baseline carried forward: ТАСС/UNIAN voltage surges in Kyiv (02:16 UTC); ballistic on Kyiv (01:24 UTC); jet UAV from Chernihiv toward Kyiv Oblast (01:38 UTC).

Donetsk Oblast:

  • New (02:45 UTC): Air Force issues a KAB alert for Donetsk Oblast (02:45:45 UTC). No impact confirmed. ТАSS/MoD propagates a "liberated Dobropillya" claim in an award-ceremony video (02:40 UTC) — assessed as false per open-source evidence.
  • Prior baseline carried forward: KABs over Donetsk Oblast (01:42 UTC).

Vinnytsia Oblast:

  • New: No new Air Force alert in this batch beyond the prior-baseline tracks. Операция Z claims 5 "Tsirkon" on Ladyzhyn TES and 4 "Tsirkon" on Ladyzhyn (02:43 UTC) — single-source, unverified.
  • Prior baseline carried forward: UAV toward Hnivan/Sutysky (01:52 UTC); jet UAV from Kirovohrad toward Trostyanets/Ladyzhyn (02:08 UTC).

Zhytomyr Oblast:

  • New: Операция Z claims Zhytomyr is "completely de-energized" with water loss after a reactive drone strike (02:43 UTC). No Air Force alert for Zhytomyr in this batch. No official Ukrainian or operator confirmation. (Confidence LOW.)
  • Prior baseline carried forward: No prior Zhytomyr alerts in this reporting window.

Moscow, Russia:

  • New (02:39 UTC): Sobyanin claims 13 UAVs reflected toward Moscow (02:39:32 UTC).
  • Prior baseline carried forward: Sobyanin 84-UAV figure (01:30 UTC); prior downed-UAV counts (18, 10, 7, 16, 53, 15) remain unreconciled.

Kherson Oblast / Oleshky:

  • New (02:46 UTC): ТАSS quotes Kherson Oblast ombudsman Georgiev on document-restoration assistance for Oleshky evacuees (02:46:17 UTC).
  • Prior baseline carried forward: General Staff evacuation photos and 167-civilian count; Ombudsman Lubinets route disclosure; ceasefire-conduct disputes.

Other oblasts (Khmelnytskyi, Lviv, Sumy, Odesa, Poltava, Luhansk, Ternopil, Kirovohrad):

  • No new alerts or damage reports in this batch beyond the prior-baseline tracks. Absence of reports does not establish unchanged conditions.

Reported strikes and air-defense activity

  • Yaroslavl refinery fire — ASTRA geolocation and prior-strike context (ASTRA, 02:47:04–02:47:05 UTC; confidence HIGH for geolocation and fire existence; MEDIUM for strike attribution): ASTRA identifies the facility as Slavneft-YANOS, geolocates the photo to pr. Frunze 77A, and lists prior attacks on AVT-4 (28 Aug 2026) and AVT-3 (17 Sep 2026). No official Russian confirmation, post-event satellite damage imagery, or munition/debris evidence is supplied. The cause (drone strike vs. industrial accident) is asserted by the source but not independently demonstrated.

  • KAB alert on Zaporizhzhia Oblast (Повітряні Сили, 02:32:27 UTC; confidence HIGH for issuance; MEDIUM for strike occurrence; LOW for damage): Single new alert. Combined with four prior alerts (01:48–02:00 UTC) and three Nikolaevsky Vanek reports, this establishes sustained KAB employment. No impact or interception data.

  • KAB alert on Donetsk Oblast (Повітряні Сили, 02:45:45 UTC; confidence HIGH for issuance; LOW for materialisation): Single alert. No impact confirmed.

  • New UAV/jet-UAV track alerts, 02:26–02:45 UTC (Повітряні Сили; confidence HIGH for issuance; LOW for materialisation): Seven new tracks: jet UAVs from Black Sea toward Mykolaiv (02:26); UAV toward Zolotonosha, Cherkasy (02:27); jet UAV toward Synelnykove, Dnipropetrovsk (02:37); jet UAV from Bryansk toward northern Chernihiv (02:38); jet UAV past Chernobyl NPP zone toward west, Kyiv Oblast (02:40); UAV toward Kharkiv from north (02:45); plus the KAB alerts above. No impacts, interceptions, or debris confirmed.

  • Moscow air defense: 13 UAVs claimed reflected (ТАСС/Sobyanin, 02:39:32 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for statement; LOW for count): New figure added to the prior-baseline 84-UAV claim. No independent verification.

  • Операция Z weapon-type claims (02:43:37 UTC; confidence LOW): Claims 5+4 "Tsirkon" on Ladyzhyn, 6 "Iskander-M/KN-23" on Zelenodolsk, Kh-101 from Tu-95MS, ~20 cruise missiles from Tu-160 (ETA ~30 min), reactive "Geran" on energy, and "Iskander-M/KN-23" on Kharkiv. No Ukrainian Air Force confirmation of specific weapon types, no impact evidence, no official MoD corroboration. Single-source narrative.

  • Nikolaevsky Vanek Tu-160 pre-launch claim (02:34:24 UTC; confidence LOW): Claims pre-launch maneuvers by Tu-160M and forecasts a missile wave at 05:20–06:00 UTC. No independent tracking or official confirmation. Follows the prior "roosters leaving" claim (02:13 UTC) about Tu-95MS.

Reported Russian activity

  • Yaroslavl security response (prior-baseline, 01:30 UTC): Governor Evraev's traffic suspension and "repelling an attack" statement carried forward. No new Russian official statement on the Yaroslavl fire in this batch. ASTRA's reporting is from an independent Russian opposition outlet, not an official source.

  • Moscow UAV accounting (Sobyanin via ТАСС, 02:39:32 UTC): 13 UAVs claimed reflected. Adds to the prior 84-UAV figure. No MoD statement in this batch.

  • Операция Z / Russkaya Vesna military-blogger narrative (02:43:37 UTC): Detailed claims about specific weapon employment (Tsirkon, Iskander-M, Kh-101, Geran) against Ukrainian energy infrastructure across at least six oblasts, and about Tu-160 cruise-missile launches. This is a propaganda-adjacent narrative channel, not an official MoD release. No corroboration supplied.

  • Nikolaevsky Vanek Tu-160 assessment (02:34:24 UTC): Single-source OSINT claim of pre-launch maneuvers and a forecast missile wave. No official confirmation.

  • Russian propaganda — "Liberated Dobropillya" (ТАСС/MoD, 02:40:01 UTC): Award-ceremony video caption claims a Guards Brigade of "Center" "liberated" Dobropillya, Donetsk Oblast. Open-source evidence indicates the city remains under Ukrainian control. Assessed as territorial-preemption propaganda.

  • Oleshky evacuation administration (ТАСС/Georgiev, 02:46:17 UTC): Kherson Oblast ombudsman reports personal document-restoration assistance for evacuees. This is a Russian-occupied-administration statement. No independent verification.

Reported Ukrainian activity

  • Air Force (Повітряні Сили ЗС України, 02:26–02:45 UTC): Issued seven new UAV/jet-UAV track alerts (Mykolaiv, Cherkasy, Dnipropetrovsk, Chernihiv, Kyiv Oblast, Kharkiv) and two KAB alerts (Zaporizhzhia, Donetsk Oblast). (Confidence HIGH for issuance.)

  • ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS (02:33:02 UTC): Reports heating disruptions in Kharkiv and transition to emergency electricity-disconnection schedules following strikes. No official municipal or operator statement is included. (Confidence MEDIUM.)

  • No new Ukrainian ground-force, procurement, or damage-assessment reporting in this batch beyond the above.

Civilian and infrastructure impact

  • Kharkiv — heating and electricity disruption (ЦАПЛІЄНКО, 02:33:02 UTC; confidence MEDIUM): Reported heating disruptions and emergency electricity-disconnection schedules after strikes. Consistent with prior-baseline ТАСС/UNIAN heating report (02:16 UTC) and the medical-facility strike context (Terekhov, 02:05 UTC). No operator statement, outage scope, or restoration timeline supplied.

  • Kharkiv, Nemyshlianskyi district — medical facility (prior-baseline, 02:05 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for four-injured figure; LOW for damage extent): Terekhov reports four injured and heavy building damage. Attached photo shows a stairwell with shelter signage, not visible blast damage. Carried forward from prior batch; no new corroboration in this batch.

  • Dnipropetrovsk Oblast — critical infrastructure (prior-baseline, 02:09 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for strike occurrence; LOW for damage and casualties): Governor Ganja confirms strikes on critical-infrastructure objects in Dnipro and Kryvyi Rih district. New jet-UAV alert toward Synelnykove (02:37 UTC) adds to the area's threat picture but no impact is confirmed.

  • Zhytomyr — claimed complete de-energization and water loss (Операция Z, 02:43:37 UTC; confidence LOW): The Russian military-blogger channel claims Zhytomyr city and oblast are "completely de-energized" with no water after a reactive drone strike. No Air Force alert for Zhytomyr in this batch; no official Ukrainian or operator confirmation. Unverified.

  • Yaroslavl, Russia — refinery fire (ASTRA, 02:47:04 UTC; confidence HIGH for fire existence and geolocation; MEDIUM for cause): ASTRA geolocates a large nighttime fire at Slavneft-YANOS refinery. ASTRA notes the plant's role in supplying jet fuel and diesel to Moscow region, airports, and military-industrial sites. No civilian harm, evacuation, or infrastructure-damage assessment beyond the fire itself is supplied. No official Russian confirmation.

  • Oleshky, Kherson Oblast — evacuation administration (ТАСС/Georgiev, 02:46:17 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for statement): Document-restoration assistance reported for evacuees. No new casualty, displacement-count, or service-disruption data in this batch.

  • Kyiv — voltage surges (prior-baseline, 02:16 UTC; confidence LOW): ТАСС/UNIAN report carried forward. No new Kyiv-specific utility statement in this batch.

Information environment and disputed claims

  • Операция Z strike narrative (02:43:37 UTC): A detailed, multi-weapon-type account of Russian strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure across at least six oblasts, including specific missile counts and types (Tsirkon, Iskander-M, Kh-101, Geran). No Ukrainian Air Force confirmation of specific weapon types, no impact evidence, and no official MoD corroboration are supplied. The channel frames the strikes as a coordinated "second stage" after a UAV wave. This is a single-source Russian military-blogger narrative with propagandistic structure (listing reserve quantities, forecasting further strikes). (Confidence LOW for all specific claims.)

  • "Fifth consecutive night" framing (Exilenova+, 02:23:03 UTC; confidence LOW): Exilenova+ frames the Yaroslavl fire as part of a "fifth consecutive night" of strikes on Russian oil infrastructure, listing Novokuibyshevsk (30 Oct), Ufa (31 Oct), Kstovo (1 Nov), LVDS Samara (2 Nov). This is a cumulative narrative built from separate prior incidents; the "consecutive" framing is editorial, not independently verified as a coordinated campaign. ASTRA's separate reporting confirms the Yaroslavl event but does not adopt the "fifth consecutive night" framing. (Confidence LOW for the cumulative narrative; MEDIUM for individual prior events based on separate reporting.)

  • "Liberated Dobropillya" propaganda claim (ТАСС/MoD, 02:40:01 UTC; confidence LOW for territorial claim): The award-ceremony caption claims a Guards Brigade "liberated" Dobropillya. Open-source geolocated evidence indicates the city remains under Ukrainian control. The video itself is assessed as authentic (TASS watermark, MoD ceremony format), but the embedded territorial claim is false or anticipatory. (Confidence HIGH for video existence; LOW for the "liberated" claim.)

  • Moscow downed-UAV figures — now eight distinct counts (prior-baseline + 02:39 UTC): The new 13-UAV figure (Sobyanin, 02:39 UTC) adds to the prior 84, 18, 10, 7, 16, 53, and 15 counts. All remain unreconciled and independently unverified. (Confidence LOW for all figures.)

  • Kharkiv medical-facility strike — text vs. image gap (prior-baseline, 02:05 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for statement; LOW for visual corroboration): Terekhov's four-injured and "heavily damaged" claims remain the sole source. The attached photo shows a stairwell with shelter signage, not blast damage. No new corroboration in this batch.

  • Nikolaevsky Vanek forecasts (02:13 and 02:34 UTC; confidence LOW for both): The "roosters leaving" claim (Tu-95MS) and the Tu-160 pre-launch/missile-wave forecast (05:20–06:00 UTC) are single-source OSINT assessments with no independent tracking or official confirmation. They are temporally inconsistent (one says bombers departing, the other says new bombers launching).

  • ASTRA vs. Exilenova+ on Yaroslavl: ASTRA provides a geolocated, named-facility analysis (YANOS, pr. Frunze 77A vantage, prior-strike history). Exilenova+ provides the same visual event with a propagandistic caption ("Ярославль😎") and a cumulative "fifth consecutive night" narrative. ASTRA's methodology is more verifiable; Exilenova+'s framing adds editorial and narrative layers. Both draw on the same underlying user-submitted media.

Evidence limitations and unresolved questions

  • Yaroslavl refinery — cause and damage extent: ASTRA's geolocation confirms a large fire at YANOS but does not independently demonstrate the cause (drone strike vs. industrial accident). No post-event satellite thermal or structural-damage imagery is supplied. No official Rosneft, YANOS, MChS, or governor statement confirms a hostile strike. Which specific unit (AVT-1, AVT-2, AVT-3, AVT-4, or another) is burning on 3 November is not established. The "fifth consecutive night" framing is narrative, not verified as a coordinated campaign.

  • Операция Z weapon claims: Specific missile counts and types (5+4 Tsirkon, 6 Iskander-M/KN-23, Kh-101, ~20 Tu-160 cruise missiles) are unverified. No Ukrainian Air Force, MoD, or independent tracking confirms these weapon types or quantities. The Zhytomyr "complete de-energization" claim has no Air Force alert, operator statement, or damage imagery. The Ladyzhyn TES and Zelenodolsk TES claims remain uncorroborated by official statements.

  • Kharkiv heating and electricity: ЦАПЛІЄНКО's report is a Telegram-channel account without a named municipal operator, schedule, or restoration timeline. The relationship between the heating disruption and the prior medical-facility strike is plausible but unconfirmed.

  • Tu-160 / Tu-95MS status: Nikolaevsky Vanek's two claims (bombers departing at 02:13, new pre-launch maneuvers at 02:34) are temporally contradictory and both unverified. No independent tracking, Air Force, or MoD confirmation.

  • Moscow UAV counts: Eight distinct figures (84, 13, 18, 10, 7, 16, 53, 15) remain unreconciled. No debris, radar, or independent tracking data.

  • Dnipropetrovsk / Kryvyi Rih: Ganja's statement (prior-baseline) and the new Synelnykove jet-UAV alert (02:37 UTC) do not establish whether the Kryvyi Rih district strike is a new event or part of the earlier ballistic wave. No weapon type, impact count, or facility identification.

  • Zaporizhzhia KAB activity: Five Air Force alerts (01:48–02:32 UTC) and three Nikolaevsky Vanek reports establish sustained KAB employment, but no impact, damage, interception, or casualty data is supplied.

  • Zhytomyr de-energization: The Операция Z claim is the sole source. No Air Force alert, operator statement, or damage imagery. Whether any strike occurred on Zhytomyr energy infrastructure in this window is unestablished.

  • UAV/jet-UAV tracks (02:26–02:45 UTC): Seven new tracks across six oblasts. No impacts, interceptions, or debris confirmed for any.

  • Silence on other sectors: No new ground-level, strike, or utility evidence for Sumy, Odesa, Poltava, Luhansk, Khmelnytskyi, Lviv, Ternopil, or Kirovohrad in this batch. Absence of reports does not establish unchanged conditions.

  • Prior-baseline items carried forward without new corroboration: Initial ballistic wave 01:02–01:15 UTC; Moscow 84/15/53/16/7/10/18-downed figures; Rubizhne FAB claim; Kursk governor statement; Abu Dhabi talks; PURL funding gap; Kyiv electricity outage/generation-cessation accounts (TEC-5, TEC-6, Darnytsia TEC); Zaporizhzhia OVA damage; Khmelnytskyi Shepetivka damage; Khrypuny drone-strike claim; Zaporizhzhia UGV claim; Petropavlivska Borshchahivka incident timeline; LPDS Samara, Kstovo, Novokuibyshevsk, Ufa refinery incidents (referenced by Exilenova+ as prior events but not independently re-verified in this batch).

  • Dempster-Shafer beliefs: The supplied belief structure assigns 0.532 to Uncertainty, with the highest specific hypotheses at 0.067 (Kharkiv infrastructure damage) and 0.044 (Kherson humanitarian aid). The Yaroslavl drone-strike hypothesis carries 0.021. These are analytic support only and do not constitute independent corroboration of underlying claims.

  • Weather context (Open-Meteo, 02:45 UTC): Kharkiv/Vovchansk: 7.0 °C, fog, wind 0.7 m/s, cloud 85%. Luhansk/Svatove: 6.0 °C, fog, wind 1.2 m/s, cloud 96%. Donetsk/Pokrovsk: 7.5 °C, overcast, wind 2.5 m/s, cloud 81%. Zaporizhzhia/Orikhiv: 6.6 °C, overcast, wind 1.7 m/s, cloud 86%. Kherson: 7.6 °C, overcast, wind 2.5 m/s, cloud 97%. No precipitation at any reference point. Daily forecast for 3 November: fog at Kharkiv and Luhansk; overcast at Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia; light rain (0.6 mm, 5% probability) possible at Kherson.
