Situation Update (UTC)

Key reported developments

  • President Zelenskiy held a selector meeting on energy and strike-consequence recovery across multiple oblasts: He stated the worst situation is in Kyiv, with prolonged electricity and water outages for residents and businesses, attributing this to both failure of city-level winter-preparation decisions and "this Russian operation against Ukrainian energy." He reported agreements with Germany and Spain on generators, cables, and equipment; briefing from Dnipro, Kharkiv, Poltava, Cherkasy, Vinnytsia, Odesa, Zhytomyr, Sumy, and Kyiv Oblast; launch of monthly supplements for recovery workers; involvement of AFU capabilities in grid restoration; and a report from the Commander-in-Chief and Air Force on combat aircraft for Shahed interception, cover groups for energy/infrastructure objects, mobile fire groups, and preparation of additional F-16 ammunition supply. (event time: 6 November; source: Zelenskiy / Official 12:32:57; relayed by РБК-Україна 12:35:35, КМВА 12:37:04, Олександр Ганжа / Дніпропетровська ОДА 12:36:51; confidence HIGH for the meeting and stated priorities per presidential office release)

  • DSNS Donetsk reports a Russian FPV drone strike killed a woman in Kramatorsk and damaged an apartment building; a separate drone strike burned a farm building in Sloviansk: The Kramatorsk incident involved a passenger car damaged and a fire in a 3rd-floor apartment. The Sloviansk incident involved a хозяйственное строение (farm/outbuilding) on private property. Rescue workers localized both fires. Three photos (DSNS Donetsk watermark) show blast/fire damage to a multi-story residential building and nighttime firefighting operations. The FPV attribution for Kramatorsk is stated in text but not visually confirmed by drone wreckage in the supplied media. (event time: 6 November, exact hour not specified; source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the strike events and damage per official DSNS reporting with corroborating imagery; MEDIUM for the specific weapon type)

  • Ukraine's Air Force issued three new aerial-threat alerts (12:14–12:30 UTC): Jet UAV toward Dnipro (12:14:12); jet UAV toward Lubny, Poltava Oblast (12:27:39); a group of jet UAVs heading toward Olexandriia, Kirovohrad Oblast (12:29:57). No interceptions or impacts are established from alert issuance alone. (source: Повітряні Сили ЗС України; confidence HIGH for alert issuance)

  • Russian MoD releases drone footage of a FAB-class strike on an urban target, claimed as Ukrainian UAV control posts designated by Rubikon Centre: The video shows a large detonation over a multi-story residential/industrial area with OSD "UT40.CK" and the Rubikon Centre logo. The MoD caption states joint work between Rubikon drone teams and VKS crews. No geolocation, coordinates, or timestamp is visible. No communications equipment or command-post structures are identifiable in the frames. (event time: not specified; source: MoD Russia 12:26:01/02; confidence MEDIUM for the footage as genuine drone-strike material; LOW for target identification and location)

  • TASS releases first footage of the "Dan-T" loitering munition mounted on a Mi-28NM helicopter: The video shows the munition on a wing pylon and the helicopter taxiing and taking off. Despite the caption claiming a strike on Ukrainian drone-operator positions, no separation, flight, or impact of the munition is shown. The "first shown" framing is a standard MoD/TASS novelty device. (event time: not specified; source: ТАСС 12:29:01/02; confidence MEDIUM for the platform/munition integration as depicted; LOW for the claimed combat employment)

  • Russian-affiliated Дневник Десантника claims multiple advances on the Krasny Liman (Lyman) axis: The channel asserts expanded control from Zarechnoye toward Kolodezi and Novoye; restoration of previously lost positions at Maslyakovka; advance to Dibrova outskirts with control of strongpoints southeast of Krasny Liman cutting a logistics road toward Slavyansk; and stabilization at Yampol. An attached tactical map is internally consistent with the text but provides no geotagged coordinates. A separate "Operation Vienna" propaganda video accompanies the post. (event time: 6 November, exact time not specified; source: Дневник Десантника🇷🇺 12:36:01/02; confidence LOW for territorial claims per single-source Russian channel without independent geolocation or Ukrainian-side confirmation)

  • Investigative searches conducted at Kyivteploenergo municipal utility over winter energy-resilience projects: The Kyiv City Administration (KMDA) reported searches targeting offices and residential premises of employees, seizing project-cost documentation related to backup power supply and distributed cogeneration for Desnianskyi, Holosiivskyi, and other Kyiv districts. Kyivteploenergo management claims the projects were never paid for and completion acts were never signed. KMDA characterizes the searches as potential political pressure. The relay source (Операция Z, citing RVvoenkor) frames the event around "preparation of Kyiv for winter." (event time: 6 November; source: Операция Z 12:10:22/23, relaying KMDA Telegram post ID 22425; confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the searches occurring per official KMDA channel; LOW for the "political pressure" characterization as it is a contested interpretation)

  • Khartia Corps publishes "Operation Veles" PR material on underground UGV operations in a gas pipeline near Kupiansk: The video features the battalion commander of ground robotic platforms, regiment "Lava," callsign "Mathematician," describing adaptation of NRK (ground robotic complexes) to narrow-pipe conditions. POV footage shows soldiers crawling through sandbag-lined tunnels. The Khartia logo watermark and studio interview setting indicate institutional PR rather than raw field documentation. (event time: not specified; source: ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS 12:31:13/14; confidence MEDIUM for the existence of contested underground/pipeline activity near Kupiansk per broader reporting; LOW for specific UGV operational effectiveness and exact location)

Reported situation by area

Kramatorsk, Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine (new): DSNS Donetsk reports a Russian FPV drone strike killed a woman, damaged a passenger car, and ignited a fire in a 3rd-floor apartment of a multi-story residential building. Photo evidence shows severe blast/fire damage to the 3rd and 4th floors. (source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the strike and damage; MEDIUM for FPV-specific weapon attribution)

Sloviansk, Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine (new): DSNS Donetsk reports a Russian drone strike caused a fire in a farm/outbuilding on private property. Nighttime firefighting operations shown in photos and bodycam video. Rescue workers localized the fire. (source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the strike and fire per official DSNS reporting with imagery)

Lyman (Krasny Liman), Donetsk Oblast, Ukraine (new claims): Дневник Десантника (12:36:01/02) claims advances at Zarechnoye, Maslyakovka, Dibrova, and Yampol. The prior SITREP reported a 28-UGV assault claim via Russian channels (БУТУСОВ ПЛЮС, 12:01:01/02) and General Staff reporting of six attacks on the Lyman axis with no territorial-change evidence. The new advance claims are single-source, unverified, and not corroborated by Ukrainian-side reporting in this batch. (confidence LOW for territorial claims)

Komyshuvakha (Камышеваха), Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Ukraine (new detail on previously reported event): Fighterbomber (12:16:30/02) claims 54 killed in the FAB-3000M54 strike on an "underground bunker" called a "school," while acknowledging Ukrainian sources may have padded the number. The prior SITREP carried a 43-dead toll from the daily report and a Рыбарь claim of a VDV major killed. The 54 figure conflicts with the previously reported 43. Attached DSNS Zaporizhzhia footage shows rescue operations at a heavily damaged site. Военкор Котенок (12:37:32/33) sarcastically mocks "schoolchildren" casualties while attaching a UNIAN image of two deceased police officers — a caption-image mismatch. (confidence LOW for the 54 figure as it is self-admittedly inflated by the author; prior 43-dead toll from the daily report stands as previously reported; the new 54 claim is unverified and contradictory)

Dnipro, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Ukraine (new alert): Air Force alert at 12:14:12: jet UAV toward Dnipro. No confirmed impact. (confidence HIGH for alert issuance)

Lubny, Poltava Oblast, Ukraine (new alert): Air Force alert at 12:27:39: jet UAV toward Lubny. The prior SITREP reported a 12:06:50 alert for a group of jet UAVs traversing Kharkiv Oblast toward Poltava Oblast, and a 11:49:32 alert toward Kremenchuk. No confirmed impact. (confidence HIGH for alert issuance)

Olexandriia, Kirovohrad Oblast, Ukraine (new alert): Air Force alert at 12:29:57: a group of jet UAVs heading toward Olexandriia. This is a new oblast direction not present in the prior SITREP's alert set. No confirmed impact. (confidence HIGH for alert issuance)

Kupiansk direction, Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine (new): ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS (12:31:13/14) publishes Khartia Corps "Operation Veles" material on underground UGV operations in a gas pipeline. The prior SITREP reported the 6th Army FPV compilation for the Kupiansk–Chuhuiv axis. The Khartia material is institutional PR; no independent corroboration of the specific pipeline location or UGV performance is supplied. (confidence MEDIUM for contested underground activity in the area per broader reporting; LOW for specific operational details)

Kyiv, Ukraine (new governance event): Searches at Kyivteploenergo utility over backup-power and cogeneration projects. Zelenskiy's selector meeting identifies Kyiv as having the worst energy/water situation, attributing it to both Russian strikes and city-level winter-preparation failures. (source: Операция Z 12:10:22/23; Zelenskiy 12:32:57; confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the searches; HIGH for the presidential characterization of Kyiv's energy crisis)

Urozhaine, Donetsk Oblast (new administrative event): Ukraine's Coordination Staff held a video meeting with families of missing/POW defenders from the Urozhaine area, covering the February–August 2024 period. Topics included search operations, repatriation logistics, DNA testing, forensic timelines, and testimony from freed servicemen. (source: Координаційний штаб 12:22:31/32; confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the meeting per official channel; the attached image is a generic PR template with no evidentiary value)

Makeyevka, occupied Donetsk Oblast (routine crime): Mash на Донбассе reports a domestic stabbing killing. No military or geopolitical significance. (source: Mash на Донбассе 12:29:54/55; confidence MEDIUM for the event per law-enforcement badge imagery; routine criminal matter)

Reported strikes and air-defense activity

  • Air Force alerts, 12:14–12:30 UTC (three new): Jet UAV toward Dnipro (12:14:12); jet UAV toward Lubny, Poltava Oblast (12:27:39); group of jet UAVs toward Olexandriia, Kirovohrad Oblast (12:29:57). These supplement the six alerts reported in the prior SITREP (11:42–12:07 UTC). No confirmed interceptions or impacts established from alert issuance. (source: Повітряні Сили ЗС України; confidence HIGH for issuance)

  • Kramatorsk FPV drone strike (new): DSNS Donetsk reports a Russian FPV drone killed a woman, damaged a car, and set fire to a 3rd-floor apartment. Photo evidence shows blast damage to a multi-story building. (source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the strike and damage; MEDIUM for FPV-specific attribution)

  • Sloviansk drone strike (new): DSNS Donetsk reports a Russian drone set fire to a farm building on private property. Fire localized by rescue workers. (source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the strike and fire)

  • MoD Russia FAB strike on claimed UAV control posts (new): Drone footage shows a large explosion over a built-up area. OSD "UT40.CK", Rubikon Centre logo. No geolocation, no visible command-post equipment, no timestamp. (source: MoD Russia 12:26:01/02; confidence MEDIUM for footage authenticity; LOW for target identification)

  • Komyshuvakha FAB-3000 strike (new detail on previously reported event): Fighterbomber claims 54 killed, an underground bunker, and multiple command posts destroyed. The author self-admits the Ukrainian toll may be padded. Attached DSNS Zaporizhzhia footage shows SAR operations at a destroyed site. The 54 figure conflicts with the previously reported 43-dead toll. (source: Fighterbomber 12:16:30/02; confidence LOW for the 54 figure and "bunker" characterization; prior 43-dead toll stands as previously reported)

  • Mi-28NM / Dan-T loitering munition (reported, non-combat): TASS shows the munition on a helicopter pylon and the aircraft taxiing/taking off. No launch or impact is depicted despite the caption claiming a strike. (source: ТАСС 12:29:01/02; confidence MEDIUM for the integration as depicted; LOW for claimed combat use)

Reported Russian activity

  • Krasny Liman / Lyman sector advance claims (Дневник Десантника, 12:36:01/02): Four specific territorial claims: expansion from Zarechnoye toward Kolodezi/Novoye; restoration of positions at Maslyakovka; advance to Dibrova outskirts cutting a logistics road toward Slavyansk; stabilization at Yampol. An attached tactical map is internally consistent but uses broad arrows without precise coordinates. The channel notes rasputitsa and cold weather will slow operations. The "Operation Vienna" video is morale/propaganda content. No Ukrainian-side confirmation or independent geolocation is supplied. (confidence LOW for all territorial claims)

  • MoD Russia / Rubikon Centre FAB strike footage (12:26:01/02): Official release showing a drone-guided FAB strike on an urban target, claimed as Ukrainian UAV control posts. No geolocation or target verification from the imagery. (confidence MEDIUM for footage; LOW for target claim)

  • TASS / MoD Dan-T on Mi-28NM (12:29:01/02): First public footage of the "Dan-T" loitering munition physically mounted on an Mi-28NM attack helicopter. The video does not show a launch or strike. The caption's claim of employment against Ukrainian drone operators is unsupported by the visual content. (confidence MEDIUM for platform-munition integration; LOW for combat use claim)

  • Fighterbomber celebration of Komyshuvakha strike (12:16:30/02): Claims 54 killed, "several command posts, a headquarters, and a pile of police and VDS personnel" destroyed in an underground bunker. The author acknowledges the Ukrainian toll may include unrelated deaths. Uses derogatory language throughout. (confidence LOW for the operational narrative; this is propaganda commentary)

  • Военкор Котенок Komyshuvakha mockery (12:37:32/33): Sarcastic post about "schoolchildren" casualties, attaching a UNIAN image of two deceased police officers. The caption-image mismatch (schoolchildren vs. adult police) is noted by the relay analysis. (confidence LOW for the framing; the underlying UNIAN image of police deaths is plausibly authentic)

  • Военкор Котенок historical tank anecdote (12:26:01/02): Talking-head interview recounting a February 2022 DPR 100th Brigade tank engagement near Novoignatovka. No combat footage, maps, or archival material. Single-source, unverifiable. (confidence LOW; historical anecdote with no current operational significance)

  • Russian domestic governance – crypto surveillance (SOTA, 12:40:35): The Investigative Committee proposes including crypto assets in the anti-money-laundering system. Putin spoke at a Rosfinmonitoring 25th-anniversary event demanding tighter control over suspicious financial operations, citing use of crypto by criminal groups and foreign intelligence. Not a war event but a rear-area governance development. (confidence MEDIUM for the announcement per SOTA reporting)

Reported Ukrainian activity

  • Zelenskiy selector meeting on energy recovery and air defense (12:32:57): The President reported: combat aircraft being used for Shahed interception; cover groups deployed for energy and infrastructure objects; mobile fire groups in operation; additional F-16 ammunition supply being prepared with partner agreements; AFU capabilities involved in grid restoration; monthly supplements launched for recovery workers (energy, communal, rail, water-utility personnel); equipment agreements with Germany and Spain. (confidence HIGH for the stated priorities per presidential office release; the operational specifics of air-defense measures are reported but not independently verified)

  • Khartia Corps "Operation Veles" underground UGV material (ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS, 12:31:13/14): PR video showing adapted NRK in a gas-pipeline environment near Kupiansk. Commander "Mathematician" of the ground robotic platforms battalion, regiment "Lava." Tunnel footage shows soldiers in a sandbag-lined bore. (confidence MEDIUM for the existence of contested underground activity in the Kupiansk area; LOW for specific UGV operational claims as this is unit PR)

  • Coordination Staff meeting with families of missing/POW from Urozhaine (12:22:31/32): Multi-agency video meeting (Coordination Staff, NGU Main Directorate, ЦУ ЦВС General Staff, MIA Main Investigation Directorate) addressing families of defenders missing in the Urozhaine area during February–August 2024. Topics: search operations, alternative information sources, repatriation logistics, DNA testing, forensic timelines, testimony from freed servicemen. (confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the meeting per official channel; the attached image is a generic PR template)

  • Kyivteploenergo searches (relayed by Операция Z, 12:10:22/23, citing KMDA): Investigative searches at the municipal utility over backup-power and distributed-cogeneration project documentation. KMDA frames the event as potential political pressure. Kyivteploenergo claims unpaid projects and unsigned completion acts. (confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the searches per official KMDA channel; the "political pressure" characterization is contested)

Civilian and infrastructure impact

  • Kramatorsk, Donetsk Oblast: A Russian FPV drone strike killed a woman, damaged a passenger car, and caused a fire in a 3rd-floor apartment of a multi-story residential building. DSNS photo evidence shows blast damage to the 3rd and 4th floors. (source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the strike and damage; the casualty is an official DSNS claim without visual confirmation of the victim in the supplied media)

  • Sloviansk, Donetsk Oblast: A Russian drone strike caused a fire in a farm/outbuilding on private residential property. Fire localized by rescue workers. (source: ASTRA 12:28:26/27; confidence HIGH for the event per DSNS reporting and imagery)

  • Komyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia Oblast: The prior daily report's 43-dead toll and ongoing search operations stand as previously reported. Fighterbomber (12:16:30/02) introduces a 54-dead figure, which the author self-admits may be inflated. The prior SITREP's Рыбарь claim of a VDV major killed remains unverified. The attached DSNS Zaporizhzhia footage in the Fighterbomber post shows SAR operations at a heavily damaged site, corroborating extensive destruction but not the exact toll. (confidence LOW for the 54 figure; prior 43-dead toll stands)

  • Kyiv energy and water services: Zelenskiy's selector meeting (12:32:57) confirms prolonged electricity and water outages for residents and businesses in Kyiv, characterizing the situation as the worst among reported oblasts. The prior daily report's account of Kyivvodokanal facilities losing power during emergency shutdowns and water-service interruptions is consistent with this new presidential confirmation. No new physical damage event is described in this batch beyond the ongoing service disruption. (confidence HIGH for the service-disruption characterization per presidential office release)

  • Ukrainian energy restoration: Zelenskiy reported agreements with Germany and Spain on generators, cables, and equipment; a program of monthly supplements for recovery workers; involvement of AFU capabilities in grid restoration; and briefings covering Dnipro, Kharkiv, Poltava, Cherkasy, Vinnytsia, Odesa, Zhytomyr, Sumy, and Kyiv Oblast. (source: Zelenskiy 12:32:57; confidence HIGH for the stated priorities; the delivery and operational effect of the equipment agreements are not established in this batch)

  • Russian rear-area infrastructure: The prior SITREP's reporting of anti-drone turret procurement at Surgut Airport, Ust-Luga port, Kolymaenergo, and Angarsk Electrolysis Chemical Combine stands. No new strike or damage event is described in this batch.

Information environment and disputed claims

  • Komyshuvakha casualty count conflict: The prior daily report carried a 43-dead toll attributed to Zelensky. Fighterbomber (12:16:30/02) claims 54 killed, while the same author acknowledges Ukrainian sources may have "padded" the number with unrelated deaths. The prior SITREP's Рыбарь claim of a VDV major killed remains single-source and unverified. The 43 and 54 figures cannot be reconciled from the supplied evidence. (confidence LOW for the 54 figure; prior 43-dead toll stands as previously reported)

  • Komyshuvakha target characterization: Fighterbomber describes the target as an "underground bunker" housing command posts, a headquarters, police, and military personnel, "which the khokhls called a school." The attached DSNS footage shows surface-level structural collapse of a reinforced building, not clearly an underground facility. The prior SITREP's Рыбарь post claimed the gymnasium was repurposed as a UAV-operator command post and police precinct since January 2026. Neither characterization is independently verified. (confidence LOW for the "underground bunker" and "command post" claims)

  • Военкор Котенок caption-image mismatch (12:37:32/33): The post sarcastically references "schoolchildren" hit by a FAB-3000 while attaching a UNIAN image of two deceased adult police officers. The relay analysis flags this as a deliberate mismatch to create confusion or mockery. (confidence LOW for the narrative framing; the UNIAN image of police deaths is plausibly authentic)

  • Lyman advance claims (Дневник Десантника, 12:36:01/02): Four specific territorial assertions (Zarechnoye, Maslyakovka, Dibrova, Yampol) are presented with a tactical map but no geotagged coordinates, independent imagery, or Ukrainian-side confirmation. The prior SITREP's General Staff reporting noted six attacks on the Lyman axis with no territorial-change evidence. The "Operation Vienna" propaganda video adds no informational content. (confidence LOW for all territorial claims)

  • MoD Russia "UAV control posts" target claim (12:26:01/02): The urban terrain in the footage shows apartment blocks and low buildings; no antennas, masts, or communications equipment are visible. The target identification is asserted in the caption without visual support. (confidence LOW for the specific target type)

  • TASS Dan-T "first shown" framing (12:29:01/02): The "впервые показало" (showed for the first time) phrasing is a standard MoD/TASS novelty device. The video does not show a launch or strike despite the caption claiming employment. (confidence LOW for the combat-use claim; MEDIUM for the integration demonstration)

  • Kyivteploenergo searches – contested framing: KMDA characterizes the searches as "political pressure"; Kyivteploenergo claims the projects were never paid for (implying no financial crime); RVvoenkor frames the event around "winter preparation" failure. The investigating authority (NABU, SBU, or prosecutor's office) is not quoted. (confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the searches occurring; LOW for the motive characterization from either side)

  • Žižek column relay (РБК-Україна, 12:36:58/59): Commentary on US midterm elections and liberal-consensus decay. Not a war event. The relay analysis notes thematic overlap with narratives common in Russian-adjacent media ecosystems, though no direct state sponsorship is established. (confidence MEDIUM for the paraphrase; not directly relevant to the conflict)

Evidence limitations and unresolved questions

  • Komyshuvakha toll reconciliation: The 43-dead figure (prior daily report, attributed to Zelensky) and the 54-dead figure (Fighterbomber, self-admittedly possibly inflated) cannot be reconciled from the supplied evidence. The relationship between the prior 43 figure and the new 54 claim is not clarified. The identity of the alleged VDV major (Рыбарь, prior SITREP) remains unverified.

  • Kramatorsk FPV attribution: The DSNS text identifies the Kramatorsk attack as an "FPV drone," but no drone wreckage or launch evidence appears in the supplied media. The Sloviansk strike is attributed only to "a drone" without a specific type.

  • MoD Russia FAB strike location: The urban terrain in the 12:26:01 footage is not geolocated. The "UT40.CK" OSD designation and the "LAND NOW" text anomaly are unexplained. Whether the target was genuinely a UAV control post or a residential/industrial building cannot be determined from the supplied frames.

  • Dan-T combat employment: The TASS video shows the munition mounted and the helicopter taking off, but no launch, flight, or impact. Whether the Dan-T has been operationally employed from Mi-28NM helicopters remains unverified.

  • Lyman territorial claims: The four advance claims by Дневник Десантника lack geotagged coordinates, independent imagery, or Ukrainian-side confirmation. The tactical map uses broad arrows without precise positioning. The Dibrova logistics-road claim, if accurate, would be operationally significant but is unverified.

  • Operation Veles / Khartia UGVs: The PR video does not show UGVs functioning in the pipeline beyond a single crosshair frame. The exact pipeline location, the extent of underground operations, and whether the adapted NRK performed as claimed are not established.

  • Kyivteploenergo searches: The investigating authority is not named. The project status, funding records, and whether any employees were detained are not detailed. The KMDA's "political pressure" characterization is one-sided.

  • Coordination Staff Urozhaine meeting: The attached image is a generic PR template. No specific brigades, family names, or individual case resolutions are disclosed. The meeting's occurrence is consistent with known institutional practices but cannot be independently verified from this post alone.

  • Weather (supplied, 12:30 UTC 6 November): Kharkiv/Vovchansk 5.4 °C, partly cloudy, wind 3.5 m/s. Luhansk/Svatove 6.5 °C, overcast, wind 3.5 m/s. Donetsk/Pokrovsk 5.5 °C, light rain showers, wind 3.9 m/s. Zaporizhzhia/Orikhiv 7.2 °C, partly cloudy, wind 4.5 m/s. Kherson 8.3 °C, overcast, wind 3.3 m/s. Next-day forecasts: light rain showers, temperatures 1.2–8.4 °C, precip probability 38–93%, wind max 3.4–4.8 m/s. The Дневник Десантника post notes approaching rasputitsa will slow operations on the Lyman axis. No tactical implications drawn.
