Key reported developments

  • Dnipropetrovsk OVA Defense Council reports ~1,500 "points of invincibility," 3 large-scale blackouts already experienced, and pending evacuation of 183 residents from 3 Nikopol-direction settlements (11 Nov 2026, ~18:38 UTC): Head of Dnipropetrovsk OVA Oleksandr Hanja publishes text and nine photos of an in-person/remote Defense Council meeting with military, police, and district/community leaders. Reported figures: up to 30 people/day evacuating from dangerous areas; awaiting military decision on evacuating 183 people from 3 settlements in the Nikopol direction; ~1,500 "points of invincibility" operational; fortification works "on schedule"; oblast has already endured 3 large-scale blackouts from enemy strikes before winter. Photos show the DMVA watermark, a conference table with Ukrainian and regional flags, a videoconference grid, and an officer in MM-14 camouflage with "ЗБРОЙНІ СИЛИ УКРАЇНИ" chest tape. (source: Олександр Ганжа / Дніпропетровська ОДА, 18:38:42–18:38:43 UTC; confidence HIGH for the meeting and official statements; MEDIUM for quantitative claims, which are single-source administrative figures)

  • ASTRA/Radio Svoboda video confirms Chornomorsk market strike damage; death toll rises to four per authorities (11 Nov 2026, ~18:46 UTC): ASTRA publishes video attributed to Radio Svoboda showing a commercial market row with shattered glass, peeled metal cladding, a possible ordnance fragment (conical metal object with banded reinforcement rings), and a nearby residential building with blast holes and broken windows. Caption states the death count from the Russian strike on the central market has risen to four. The prior batch reported three killed. No geolocation metadata or DSNS report is supplied in the post. (source: ASTRA, 18:46:20–18:46:21 UTC; confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the damage footage as genuine post-strike imagery; MEDIUM for the updated death toll, attributed to "authorities" without named source)

  • Ukrainian Air Force issues five jet-UAV alerts in ~15 minutes: Dnipro, Zvyagel (Zhytomyr), southern Odesa (from Black Sea), Sarny (Rivne), Zhytomyr (18:39–18:53 UTC): Повітряні Сили ЗСУ publishes sequential warnings for reactive UAVs heading toward Dnipro (18:39:08), Zvyagel (18:46:09), southern Odesa Oblast from the Black Sea (18:47:12), Sarny (18:48:53), and Zhytomyr (18:53:11). No impacts or interceptions reported in this batch. (source: Повітряні Сили ЗСУ, 18:39:08–18:53:11 UTC; confidence HIGH for alert issuance; no effect data)

  • Omsk Oblast governor Khotsenko confirms drone alert and UAV shootdowns; "massive attack on refinery" framing unverified (11 Nov 2026, ~18:40 UTC): Два майора posts screenshots of three sequential official posts by Governor Vitaly Khotsenko on the state-backed MAX messenger confirming PVO air defense shooting down UAVs, emergency services on heightened readiness, wreckage sites being worked, and an all-clear. The channel's caption attributes a "massive attack" targeting the Omsk refinery to Ukrainian sources; a map graphic shows a 2,495 km geodesic line from a launch-area marker to Omsk. Khotsenko's posts never mention the refinery or a "massive" scale. No damage imagery is supplied. (source: Два майора, 18:40:05–18:40:06 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for the drone alert and shootdowns per governor's official posts; LOW for the refinery target and "massive" characterization)

  • MoD Russia "Top News" reiterates Shilovka (DPR) and Voskresenka (Zaporozhye) claims; adds T-80BVM and Kramatorsk drone-strike assertions (11 Nov 2026, ~19:04 UTC): MoD Russia publishes its daily "Top News" roundup claiming: Shilovka "liberated" in the DPR and Voskresenka in Zaporozhye region; UAV strikes on energy infrastructure and ships "used in the interests of the AFU"; drone teams destroyed an AFU shelter and UAV control posts in the Kramatorsk region; T-80BVM tank crews repelled an assault in Zaporozhye region. The accompanying image is a generic propaganda collage with no location-specific evidence. (source: MoD Russia, 19:04:43–19:04:44 UTC; confidence LOW for all territorial and strike claims; MEDIUM for the post as a genuine MoD product)

  • Vereshchuk (deputy head, Presidential Office) urges preparation for prolonged war and water stockpiling (11 Nov 2026, ~18:40 UTC): ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS relays a statement attributed to Deputy Head of the Presidential Office Iryna Vereshchuk: "Make water reserves and prepare for a long war, don't rely on statements about its quick end." She cited continued Russian buildup of military potential, increased missile and drone production, and the necessity of maintaining readiness. (source: ЦАПЛІЄНКО_UKRAINE FIGHTS, 18:40:12 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for the relay as a secondary channel; the underlying statement is attributed to a named senior official)

  • EU agreed to add 145 entities to Russia sanctions list, per Reuters (11 Nov 2026, ~18:52 UTC): Оперативний ЗСУ relays a Reuters-sourced report that EU representatives agreed to add 145 legal and physical persons to the sanctions list, including 50 Russian banks, shadow-fleet enablers, energy companies, and Russian business leaders. An additional 31 entries relate to disinformation and manipulative actions. EU foreign ministers are expected to approve the lists on Monday; they take effect upon publication in the Official Journal. (source: Оперативний ЗСУ, 18:52:26 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for the Reuters relay; the approval and publication remain forward-looking)

  • Cherkasy OVA reports strikes on energy objects in Uman and Zvenyhorod districts; partial outages (11 Nov 2026, ~19:06 UTC): Оперативний ЗСУ relays an OVA statement that Russian strikes hit several energy objects in the Uman and Zvenyhorod districts of Cherkasy Oblast, leaving part of subscribers without electricity. No facility names, weapon types, or damage extent are specified. (source: Оперативний ЗСУ, 19:06:23 UTC; confidence MEDIUM for the relay; LOW for specific damage details)

Reported situation by area

Dnipropetrovsk Oblast — new official winterization and evacuation data: Hanja's Defense Council (18:38:42) reports ~1,500 "points of invincibility," 3 prior large-scale blackouts, and a pending military decision on evacuating 183 people from 3 Nikopol-direction settlements. This supplements the prior batch's Zelensky selector reference to Dnipropetrovsk reconstruction reports (18:15:30). The Air Force's 18:39:08 jet-UAV alert for Dnipro adds an active-threat dimension. No Ukrainian General Staff or DeepState update in this batch addresses the @z_arhiv territorial claim from the prior batch. (confidence HIGH for the OVA meeting and figures; LOW for the prior territorial claim, unchanged)

Cherkasy Oblast — new strike and damage report: Оперативний ЗСУ (19:06:23) relays OVA confirmation of strikes on energy objects in Uman and Zvenyhorod districts, with partial outages. This follows the prior batch's Air Force alerts for Cherkasy toward Buki/Zhashkiv (18:10:17). The OVA report is the first in this batch to confirm actual impacts in Cherkasy, though facility identities and damage extent remain unspecified. (confidence MEDIUM for the OVA relay; LOW for damage specifics)

Zhytomyr Oblast — new Air Force alerts: Повітряні Сили ЗСУ (18:46:09, 18:53:11) issues jet-UAV warnings for Zvyagel and Zhytomyr. No impacts reported. The prior daily report noted overnight strikes on energy, transport, and fuel infrastructure with 4–5 injured per OVA/DSNS. No new damage data in this batch. (confidence HIGH for alert issuance)

Odesa Oblast / Chornomorsk — updated casualty count: ASTRA (18:46:20) reports the death toll from the central-market strike rising to four per authorities, up from three in the prior batch. Video from Radio Svoboda shows market and residential damage. The Air Force (18:47:12) separately warns of jet UAVs from the Black Sea toward southern Odesa. (confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the damage footage; MEDIUM for the updated death toll)

Omsk Oblast, Russia — drone alert confirmed, refinery target unverified: Governor Khotsenko's official posts (via Два майора, 18:40:06) confirm UAV shootdowns and an all-clear. The refinery-target claim and "massive attack" framing are attributed to Ukrainian sources by the channel but not confirmed by the governor. The prior batch's Exilenova+/STERNENKO/Оперативний ЗСУ claims of a continuing attack through 14:51 UTC are not addressed by the new governor posts. (confidence MEDIUM for the alert and shootdowns; LOW for refinery targeting and scale)

Kharkiv Oblast / Kupiansk sector — geographic contradiction persists: Басурин о главном (18:39:07) claims MoD announced Shilovka liberated by the "Center" group (a Kharkiv-sector designation). MoD Russia's 19:04:43 "Top News" and the prior 18:31:52 graphic place Shilovka in the "DNR" (Donetsk). Рыбарь (18:59:25) uses the spelling "Shuylivka" without oblast attribution. The three pro-Russian sources offer mutually inconsistent geographic framings. No Ukrainian-side confirmation or DeepState update addresses any variant. (confidence LOW for all territorial claims)

Zaporizhzhia Oblast — Voskresenka claim repeated; Kamyshuvakha strike mentioned: MoD Russia (19:04:43) repeats the Voskresenka "liberation" claim. Военкор Котенок (18:48:37) references a Russian strike on an "abandoned object" in Kamyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, with no evidence. The prior batch's @z_arhiv Dnipropetrovsk-sector map and the prior daily report's DeepState advance near Chervone/Chervona Krynytsa remain unaddressed. (confidence LOW for all claims)

Rivne Oblast — new Air Force alert: Повітряні Сили ЗСУ (18:48:53) warns of a jet UAV heading toward Sarny. No impacts reported. (confidence HIGH for alert issuance)

Kramatorsk region, Donetsk Oblast — MoD drone-strike claim: MoD Russia (19:04:43) claims drone teams destroyed an AFU shelter and UAV control posts in the Kramatorsk region. No evidence, geolocation, or Ukrainian-side confirmation. (confidence LOW)

Ust-Luga, Leningrad Oblast; Kherson ground sector; Sumy Oblast; Kryvyi Rih; Perekop/Crimea logistics: No new evidence in this batch. Prior-batch and prior-daily-report assessments stand unchanged. Silence does not establish resolution.

  • Prior-batch strike and air-defense events (MoD 1,085 UAV figure, SIGNUM compilation, 422 LUFTWAFFE Grad claim, Воин DV FPV compilation, six jet-UAV alerts 17:42–18:03, Lost Armour animated map, Proton-Electroteks satellite image, КіберБорошно Neptune claim, Дневник Десантника daily summary): No new evidence in this batch addresses or supersedes these. Prior assessments stand. (Previously reported.)

Reported Russian activity

Generic propaganda collage; no evidence. (confidence LOW for operational claims)

  • Басурин о главном (18:39:07): Pro-Russian channel claims Shilovka liberated by "Center" group, lists strikes on nine settlements, claims 700+ VСУ losses. Contradicts MoD's own DPR attribution for Shilovka. (confidence LOW)

  • Рыбарь daily digest (18:59:25): Claims Shuylivka "liberated," heavy fighting near Kostiantynivka and Dobropillia, FSB disrupted Polish intelligence network in Kaliningrad, Abu Dhabi prisoner exchange agreed, Europeans excluded. (confidence LOW for operational claims; MEDIUM for the Abu Dhabi and FSB institutional statements as narrative products)

  • Colonelcassad / Tula museum "Courier" UGV (18:40:21): Photos and video confirm a tracked ground UGV designated "НРПК «КУРЬЕР»" on display at the Tula State Museum of Weapons. Caption claims it passed trials on the Kursk direction within grouping "Sever," delivering supplies, evacuating wounded, and assaulting strongpoints. Combat claims are unverifiable from museum imagery. (confidence HIGH for the exhibit's existence; LOW for combat narrative)

  • Два майора / Khotsenko (18:40:05): Governor confirms Omsk drone alert, shootdowns, and all-clear. Channel frames a "massive attack on refinery" attributed to Ukrainian sources. (confidence MEDIUM for the governor's statements; LOW for refinery targeting)

  • ТАСС / Medvedev budget statement (18:46:40): Russian budget second reading scheduled for the following week; priorities include security, SVO support, and social obligations. Non-war governance content. (confidence MEDIUM for the official statement)

  • Дневник Десантника crowdfunding (19:00:57): Solicits donations for drone batteries/accumulators; 21,000 rubles collected, target 297,000 by Saturday. (confidence LOW for the operational significance; MEDIUM for the channel's existence as a fundraising entity)

  • Поддубный |Z|О|V| edition (19:02:37): Daily summary mentions Abu Dhabi security-architecture talks, first "Rusty Dagger" intercept, Poltava as next strike target, NATO strategy shift, CSTO outcomes. (confidence LOW for specific claims; the "first Rusty Dagger intercept" is unverified)

  • Kotsnews (19:02:09): Reports Armenia stripped of CSTO voting rights (Article 25, unpaid dues since 2024); Darchiev death; US House impeachment of Hegseth over Iran war failed 211–204; Latvia TikTok incident; Russian court sentences (Abyzov, Rosnano). (confidence MEDIUM for the CSTO and court items as reported events; LOW for the US impeachment vote specifics)

  • SOTA (19:04:01): Hungary: Aron Orbán (brother of Viktor) arrested for facilitating Vietnamese visa fraud via Hungary; Viktor calls it politically motivated. WSJ reports US administration lobbying Orbán for UN Secretary-General post. (confidence MEDIUM for the arrest per Telex; LOW for the WSJ UN SG lobbying claim)

  • Non-war Russian content: Darchiev death (also in prior batch via ТАСС/Военкор Котенок); CSTO meeting (MoD Russia, Kotsnews); budget reading (ТАСС). Contextual, not operational.

Reported Ukrainian activity

  • Dnipropetrovsk OVA Defense Council (18:38:42): Official meeting on evacuation, fortifications, and blackout preparedness. Quantitative claims: 30/day evacuations, 183 pending Nikopol evacuations, ~1,500 points of invincibility, 3 prior blackouts. (confidence HIGH for the event; MEDIUM for figures)

  • Zelenskiy / Official live media interaction (18:47:30): "Live. Media interaction together with Michal Martin." No content of the interaction is supplied. (confidence HIGH for the event's occurrence; no substance available)

  • Оперативний ЗСУ relay of Cherkasy OVA strikes (19:06:23): Confirms impacts on energy objects in Uman and Zvenyhorod districts. (confidence MEDIUM for the relay)

  • Exilenova+ / "Sunflower" drone footage (18:48:50): Video shows a strike on what appears to be Russian military equipment in a treeline, with a large explosion. Watermarked "СОНЯШНИК" (Sunflower). No geolocation, timestamp, or unit confirmation beyond the logo. Caption uses emotionally charged language. (confidence MEDIUM for the footage as a drone-strike video; LOW for target identity and location)

  • БУТУСОВ ПЛЮС / 155th Brigade interview (19:01:01): Clip from official ARMIYA channel featuring a female soldier of the 155th Separate Mechanized Brigade "Anna Kyivska" claiming she killed 8 Russian soldiers and became a company commander. Kill count is unverifiable; content is military PR. (confidence MEDIUM for the interview's existence as official military media; LOW for the combat claim)

  • STERNENKO post (19:01:10): Caption claims "General Duka personally killed Vladimir Putin. Twice" — physically impossible and clearly disinformation. Photo text quotes Duka's lawyer announcing upcoming results of a "large-scale operation," referencing the NABU/SAP "Carthage" case. (confidence LOW for all claims; the assassination claim is fabricated)

  • РБК-Україна evening summary (19:04:07): Reports Abu Dhabi two-day round concluded; US envoys heading to Moscow then Kyiv; prisoner exchange possible "within weeks"; Chornomorsk strike; Yermak travel restriction eased by VAKS; Ust-Luga fire plus claimed Ka-52 loss over St. Petersburg sourced to "Russian publics." (confidence MEDIUM-HIGH for the diplomatic and court items; LOW for the Ka-52 loss and exchange timing)

  • Prior-batch Ukrainian activity (Zelensky selector, Air Force Commander briefing, 422 LUFTWAFFE Grad claim, SIGNUM compilation, Abu Dhabi German-spokesperson relay, FREYJA announcement, РБК-Україна planned outages, Ust-Luga General Staff/SBU confirmations, Kryvyi Rih OVA damage, WarArchive Savelivka, GUR POW capture, 61st Brigade workshop, Vygyvsky interview): No new evidence in this batch supersedes these. Prior assessments stand. (Previously reported.)

Civilian and infrastructure impact

  • Chornomorsk, Odesa Oblast — death toll rises to four: ASTRA (18:46:20) reports the count from the central-market strike has risen to four per authorities, up from three in the prior batch. Video shows commercial and residential damage. No named authority or DSNS report is supplied in the post. (confidence MEDIUM for the updated figure; MEDIUM-HIGH for the damage footage)

  • Cherkasy Oblast — energy outages: Оперативний ЗСУ (19:06:23) relays OVA confirmation of strikes on energy objects in Uman and Zvenyhorod districts, leaving part of subscribers without electricity. No facility names or outage extent specified. (confidence MEDIUM for the OVA relay)

  • Dnipropetrovsk Oblast — winterization and blackout preparedness: Hanja (18:38:42) reports 3 prior large-scale blackouts, ~1,500 "points of invincibility" operational, and a pending evacuation decision for 183 residents in the Nikopol direction. The statement implies sustained threat to civilian energy supply into winter. (confidence HIGH for the official statement; MEDIUM for the blackout count)

  • Omsk Oblast, Russia — drone alert and wreckage: Governor Khotsenko confirms UAV shootdowns and wreckage-site work. No civilian casualty or infrastructure damage report is supplied. (confidence MEDIUM for the alert; no damage data)

  • Ukraine-wide — Vereshchuk's prolonged-war warning: The deputy head of the Presidential Office (18:40:12) urges civilians to stockpile water and prepare for continued conflict, citing Russian military buildup. This is an official preparedness communication. (confidence MEDIUM for the relay)

  • Prior-batch civilian impact (Enerhodar ZNPP employee deaths, Kharkiv Saltivskyi two killed, Dnipro three killed, Zhytomyr four-versus-five injured, Kryvyi Rih infrastructure damage, Ust-Luga three injured, Donetsk 120,000+ subscribers without power): No new evidence in this batch supersedes these. Prior assessments stand. (Previously reported.)

Information environment and disputed claims

  • Shilovka geographic contradiction — now three-way: The prior batch's Colonelcassad/DIVGEN maps (17:50:43) placed Shilovka in a Kupiansk-sector (Kharkiv) context attributed to "Center." MoD Russia's 18:31:52 graphic and 19:04:43 "Top News" place it in the "DNR" (Donetsk). Басурин о главном (18:39:07) attributes it to the "Center" group (Kharkiv sector). Рыбарь (18:59:25) uses the spelling "Shuylivka" without oblast attribution. The pro-Russian ecosystem is internally inconsistent on location and operational grouping. No Ukrainian-side confirmation, DeepState update, or geolocated imagery supports any variant. (confidence LOW for all territorial claims)

  • Voskresenka — repeated by MoD, no evidence: MoD Russia (19:04:43) repeats the "liberation" claim. The prior batch's Дневник Десантника (18:31:01) and the prior daily report's Voin DV claim are the only other sources. All are pro-Russian; none supplies geolocated imagery, unit confirmation, or Ukrainian-side acknowledgment. Repetition across affiliated channels is not independent corroboration. (confidence LOW)

  • Omsk "massive attack on refinery" — narrative vs. official source: The Два майора caption frames the incident as a "massive attack" targeting the refinery, attributed to Ukrainian sources. Governor Khotsenko's own posts confirm only UAV shootdowns and an all-clear, without mentioning the refinery or a "massive" scale. The 2,495 km map is a geodesic distance, not a verified flight track. (confidence LOW for the refinery-target framing; MEDIUM for the underlying drone alert)

  • STERNENKO "Duka killed Putin twice" — fabricated: The caption is physically impossible and constitutes deliberate disinformation. The photo text, while less extreme, still relies on anonymous sourcing and unverifiable quotes. (confidence LOW; the assassination claim is clearly false)

  • 155th Brigade "8 killed" claim — military PR: The ARMIYA-channel interview presents a structured hero narrative. The kill count is unverifiable; the video is produced military public-relations content. (confidence MEDIUM for the interview's existence; LOW for the combat claim)

  • "Sunflower" drone footage — unverified location: The Exilenova+ video shows a strike with an explosion but provides no geolocation, timestamp, or unit confirmation beyond the Sunflower watermark. The redistribution channel (SONTAH_HUB) adds editorial framing. (confidence MEDIUM for the footage as a drone-strike video; LOW for target and location)

  • Abu Dhabi outcomes — competing accounts: РБК-Україна (19:04:07) reports the two-day round concluded with a possible prisoner exchange "within weeks" and US envoys heading to Moscow. Рыбарь (18:59:25) claims the exchange was agreed and Europeans were excluded. Поддубный (19:02:37) says the security-architecture conversation "will continue." No text of any agreement is supplied. The prior batch's German-spokesperson relay and the MoD's non-aggression-pact proposal remain unaddressed. (confidence MEDIUM for the occurrence of talks; LOW for outcomes and implementation)

  • Tula "Courier" UGV — exhibit vs. combat claim: The museum display is visually confirmed. The combat narrative (Kursk front, "Sever" grouping, FPV/mine damage) relies solely on the caption. The "scars" on the armor could be mounting or vent holes. (confidence HIGH for the exhibit; LOW for combat claims)

  • EU sanctions expansion (Оперативний ЗСУ, 18:52:26): The Reuters-sourced report of 145 entities is a diplomatic/policy item. The approval by foreign ministers on Monday and publication in the Official Journal are forward-looking. (confidence MEDIUM for the Reuters relay; LOW for implementation timing)

  • Prior-batch disputed claims (MoD 1,085 vs. 85 UAV contradiction, FREYJA program, Lost Armour date-analysis error, SIGNUM/422 LUFTWAFFE compilations, Воин DV AI-targeting overlay, Naro-Fominsk misidentification, Ust-Luga geolocation gap, Belozerkovskaya timestamp anomaly, Proton-Electroteks date discrepancy, advance-rate infographic, non-aggression pacts proposal): No new evidence in this batch addresses these. All prior assessments stand.

Evidence limitations and unresolved questions

  • Shilovka / Voskresenka / Shuylivka: No geolocated imagery, video, Ukrainian-side confirmation, or DeepState update in this batch. The MoD "Top News" provides no evidence beyond a generic collage. The three-way geographic contradiction (Kharkiv/"Center" vs. DNR vs. unspecified) remains unresolved.

  • Chornomorsk death toll (four): The updated figure is attributed to "authorities" in the ASTRA caption without a named official, DSNS report, or OVA statement. The prior batch reported three. The increment is unverified.

  • Cherkasy energy-object strikes: The OVA relay specifies districts (Uman, Zvenyhorod) but not facility names, weapon types, or outage extent. No Ukrenergo or DSNS report is supplied.

  • Omsk refinery targeting: Khotsenko's posts confirm a drone alert and shootdowns but do not mention the refinery. No damage imagery, satellite data, or operator statement is available. The "24 October" prior attack reference is unverified.

  • Dnipropetrovsk OVA figures (30/day, 183/3 settlements, 1,500 points, 3 blackouts): Single-source administrative statements. No independent cross-check of the blackout incidents or evacuation numbers is supplied. The military decision on the 183-person evacuation has not been announced.

  • "Sunflower" drone footage: No geolocation, timestamp, or unit confirmation beyond the watermark. Target type is indistinct. The redistribution layer adds editorial framing.

  • 155th Brigade combat claim: Kill count is unverifiable. No body counts, timestamps, or location data. The content is military PR.

  • Tula "Courier" UGV: Combat claims (Kursk, "Sever," mission types) are caption-only. No battlefield footage or independent corroboration.

  • Abu Dhabi outcomes: No text of any prisoner-exchange agreement or security-architecture framework. The US envoys' Moscow/Kyiv itinerary is reported but not confirmed by state/foreign-ministry statements. The Wednesday press conference referenced in the prior batch has not occurred.

  • EU sanctions (145 entities): The Reuters relay describes an agreement among representatives, not a finalized decision. Ministerial approval and Official Journal publication are pending.

  • Vereshchuk statement: Relayed by a single Telegram channel. No primary Presidential Office transcript or video is supplied.

  • General: No Ukrainian General Staff daily operational report, SBU press conference, Ukrenergo damage statement, or DSNS report appears in this batch independently confirming any new claim. The Повітряні Сили alerts are authoritative for warning issuance but not for outcomes. The DSF belief masses remain uncalibrated analytic-support scores derived from the same source messages and do not constitute independent corroboration.

  • Weather context (supplied, 19:00 UTC): Frontline areas: Kharkiv/Vovchansk 5.0 °C light rain, wind 2.0 m/s, cloud 100%; Luhansk/Svatove 6.5 °C light rain, wind 4.6 m/s, cloud 100%; Donetsk/Pokrovsk 7.8 °C overcast, wind 4.0 m/s, cloud 100%; Zaporizhzhia/Orikhiv 8.0 °C overcast, wind 3.3 m/s, cloud 100%; Kherson 5.5 °C overcast, wind 0.9 m/s, cloud 100%. Daily forecast: 100% precipitation probability across all five reference points, 4.1–9.0 mm expected, wind maxima 4.0–6.5 m/s. These are numeric observations only; no tactical implications are drawn.
