#Toretsk. 30.07.2024

Libkos does on the ground reporting and photography in the Ukrainian city of Toretsk. Their brief descriptions are intense. Accompanied with their photos, it shows the state of the city and that conditions of the war there have outgrown the word hell.

I wish them and their colleagues safety.

Below you will find his tweet thread.

We are entering the city in two separate groups. I am with the military, and Vlada is with the legendary Ukrainian volunteer Denis Khrystov we have long wanted to meet, and his team.

The city greets us with smog, making it hard to breathe. Toretsk is burning, every part of it. The city is scorched in entire blocks, and entering and moving around is a gamble because the artillery doesn’t cease, and KABs (guided bombs) hit the city almost every hour.

As we enter Toretsk, I see smoke rising from two such bombs. At that time, I don’t yet know that they fell just 150 meters from Vlada and Denis, who are gathering people and animals for evacuation.

Many people want to leave, but there are also those who are afraid to go because they are disillusioned (the majority), as well as those who are obviously "waiting."

Both groups stay in the basements, as it is dangerous to come out, and besides, they have nowhere to go — their apartments and houses have long been destroyed by Russian artillery.

Now a bit about logistics and moving around the city. All the main streets of Toretsk are nearly 24/7 controlled by enemy FPV drones, creating so-called "roads of death,"

full of burned-out cars. Meanwhile, the parallel alleys and alternative routes through the yards are so destroyed by artillery that fallen trees and debris also almost make passage impossible.

So you either risk losing a wheel by hitting a nail or shrapnel, or you must travel on the main arteries and hope that the electronic warfare (EW) will work.

Denis’s EW worked. It saved the life of the driver waiting for Denis and Vlada in the white evacuation van, but it could have cost Vlada dearly, who was just a meter from the impact and miraculously managed to run into a concrete bunker during the deadly dive.

Toretsk has blackened and smells of death. Dead birds and animal remains are scattered along the deserted streets. According to Uncle Vitya, a local whom Denis’s group evacuated along with five parrots, two cats, and a shepherd dog named Bada

locals who die from the shelling are buried in their own yards, if they can be buried at all.

Our military holds the city, but it takes tremendous effort. In Ukraine, the word “hell” has long lost its sacred meaning: mythical hell is not frightening when you have seen the real one with your own eyes so many times.

PS: Vlada received a small contusion from the explosion and still felt bad all night.

Starfolk Nonhuman Tips

[Plain text: Starfolk Nonhuman Tips /End ID]

This is for any nonhuman/ alterhuman who's a starfolk in some capacity, whether otherkin, otherhearted, synpath, otherlink and such!

I'll be adding onto this whenever I get ideas for potential tips and such.

Listen to the Worldless OST! It helps me with feeling calm, and it just feels homely!

Even better, watch or play Worldless itself!

Get one of those "night sky projectors," especially if it has multiple colour settings and speakers. You can play both music AND vibe.

Make a mask! Okay this is a generic one but this is such a fun thing to make AND wear.

(Light polarity) Join fencing and/ or archery clubs! Might feel right. Alternatively, watch videos with swordfighting, archery and/ or any other combat, or you can get or even make some stuff based on your weapon.

(Dark polarity) Relax in water, especially in pools, river and beaches if that's accessible. If not those, a good long shower would do the trick!

(Dark polarity) Be in dimly lit places! Okay what I meant by this is turn off the lights in your room and probably use a lamp to make it nice and cosy.

(Light polarity) Take a walk in anywhere snowy! Or watch videos about hiking in snowy places.

(Light polarity) Or, you can watch thunderstorms, whether in real life or in videos!

(Dark polarity) Make fake claws! Even better, attach said claws to a pair of gloves.

Draw yourself! Or maybe write if you prefer that. It doesn't have to be good, just let yourself focus on your appearance and what you want to portray.

Get a bell! It sounds somewhat like sonar.

You could try to mimic the sound of sonar, but I'm not too sure how to.

Put fake stars in your room! Basically cut out a bunch of shapes in the desired polarity, punch some holes in it, string them and attach them to the ceiling!

Hiking would be great, if you're able to do it. Alternatively, watch hiking videos and maybe even FPV Drone footage if your 'type has wings.

If your type has wings, you could make a jacket with wings on them! Paint on the desired wing type with fabric paint.

Make a moodboard, or even a collage if you want.

Life goes on for the world, but for Ukrainians, it never will be the same

Volunteer Olha Danchenko and the commander of the 2nd Infantry Company "Steel Hundred" Serhiy Konoval, call sign "Nord", had just recently gotten married, but Serhiy was killed on April 6 near Chasovyi Yar in the Donetsk region.

To avenge the death of Serhiy and his comrades, Olha and her friends started manufacturing 100 FPV drones in Ternopil.

Olha's team consists of about seven people who make drones. They are currently searching for the necessary parts.

Don't be indifferent. Please hear our cry out to the world, keep spreading our voices, and donate to our army and combat medics (savelife.in.ua, prytulafoundation.org, Serhii Sternenko, hospitallers.life, ptahy.vidchui.org, and u24.gov.ua).

❗One more important fundraising (3,000 drones with thermal imagers: 1,000 PEGAS drones and another 2,000 SHURIKEN drones)

[mariacallous]

Ukraine: Enemy in the Woods is a surgically precise, raw and devastating documentary about a seven-week mission undertaken in November 2023 by the Ukrainian Berlingo Battalion. The stakes of the Berlingo’s mission are extremely high. The 99 soldiers must defend a section of a railway line that runs through the forest that lies north-west of Kupyansk. If the Russians were to take it, they would be able to resupply and potentially push on to Kharkiv, the second largest city in Ukraine.

This film does not so much explain the mission as show it in visceral detail. You will see death and dead bodies; these images are unlikely to leave your mind. I have never seen war portrayed in this way, so close up, grotesque and frantic.

While the soldiers discuss their experiences in interviews, we also see battles from two other positions. The first is through drone footage. Viktor and Denys are drone pilots who fly explosives, or what they call “gifts”, over the Russian troops and their “foxholes”. With FPV (first-person view) drones, the pilots wear goggles, giving them a direct view of the explosives reaching their targets. When they blow up, the screen cuts to fuzz.

In one attack, from the sky, we see a Russian soldier enter a house. The drone follows him in through the front door. A second drone captures the explosion that follows. The Ukrainian soldiers speak frankly of the thrill of it and how they feel about the men who die: “Why should we feel sorry for them?”

In their own foxholes, the Ukrainian soldiers eat, talk, joke and pray. They hold up rudimentary explosives, made from soap and petrol. They extract mice from their food supplies. They talk about the Russians and ask, again and again – sometimes asking captured Russian soldiers directly – why they have come to this country.

The Ukrainians know they are outnumbered. Maksym, who is 19, says more Russians come every day: “They just die, but they keep coming and coming and coming.” Watching a livestreamed battle on a laptop, Dmytro, a company commander, says: “We kill a thousand, they send another thousand.”

Bodycam footage brings horror from another side. We see decisions made on the fly, hectic and desperate. The Ukrainians shoot at Russian soldiers and the Russians fire back. Foxholes are destroyed by Russian drones. We watch the men discovering the bodies of their comrades, then carrying wounded comrades, groaning in agony, through the forest. In the snow and ice, there are so many bodies. To hear the rapid, panicked breathing of these men – to hear the adrenaline and the fear – is so utterly intimate, direct and powerful. It is deeply disturbing. And it should be.

Over the course of just one hour, we get to know these soldiers, who are deep into a rotation they should have left weeks ago, but there was no one to replace them. Natalia, a combat medic, is the only woman in the battalion. She has a veterinary degree, but now she treats people. She has become “emotionless to certain moments of life”, she says, unconvincingly. Vlad, a unit commander whose family fled Kherson during the Russian occupation, has been rapidly promoted through the ranks. He is “fully 19 years old”.

This film is full of haunting landscapes. In one moment, a soldier examines by torchlight a heap of bags piled on the floor. These are the possessions of the soldiers who have left the battalion. Many are injured; some are dead. A battle takes place at night, in the black of the forest. It is lit only by the flashes of gunfire and explosions. The sky turns red. It is a vision of hell.

But the soldiers of the Berlingo often talk about the after times: what they will do and what they dream of in a free Ukraine. Sometimes, these dreams are as simple as football and festivals, life as it was before. They would like houses, dogs, to spend time with children. In war, in all the loss of humanity, there is a sliver of hope.

Many of us find ourselves scrolling through social media feeds that casually drop in images and footage of conflict and war, among holiday snaps and selfies, flattening these nightmares into a swipeable passing moment. Documentaries such as this insist on the opposite. It is distressing in its frankness – of course it is. But it makes the conflict real and asks you to look, understand and remember what is happening, not so far away.

Ukraine: Enemy in the Woods aired on BBC Two and is available on BBC iPlayer

This black and white whale accompanying the mother and baby is an “escort”. Escorts have a funny role in Humpback society. They are not the fathers of the calves. Instead, they are (usually) other males who are hanging around for the chance to potentially mate with the female. The “good” escorts can play a protective role, keeping the calf and mum safe from predators like Orcas or False Killer Whales. The “bad” ones may actually harass the female and disrupt the calf’s nursing in their zeal to try to mate. As far as I can tell, our man here is being an upstanding gentleman. The thing I am most fascinated by though are the reports that there are occasional female escorts as well. I would love to find out more about how frequent this is and why it occurs. Why would other female Humpbacks do this? Please let me know if anyone has insights!

My cat, ‪his name is First (my First and Only). When I got him, he was only 1 month old, then he got really sick with FPV, thankfully he recovered from it 👌��

‪He is seriously a blessing in my life 🥹���. It has been two years since he came to me. No reason, I just want to show him off that is all lol

Here he was helping me build X Falcon lol

Here was when he was very sick, barely 3 months old, and then he had to catch ringworm and got his head bald too… now I still call him Baldie sometime hehe

[parallelmonarch]

This is my very first post on Tumblr. I wanted to start off my page by introducing you to my fur baby, who has since crossed the rainbow bridge. I wanted to spread awareness about the potential disease that took his life. Note that I am not a veterinarian and the diagnosis was never confirmed.

On September 2nd, 2024, I met Geralt at my uncle’s house while we were drafting for our fantasy football league. I have three cats, a dog, and a turtle. I wasn’t originally going to take this little guy home. However, you see the cute pic of him snuggled up? That’s him on my chest the day we met, he came to me on his own volition. He climbed onto my chest and fell right asleep, in that moment, I knew he was meant to be my baby.

I had Geralt for ten days.

On September 12th, it was a normal morning. He slept with me as usual, he screamed at me for not giving him attention. He was just fine, acting like a kitten. The only thing he had going on was diarrhea, which I treated him for worms, and I figured it might’ve been him adjusting to the new food as well. Other than that, he was a normal kitten. I got up to take a bath around 11 in the morning, and when I returned I couldn’t find him. I asked my partner where he was and he told me he got up and hid in a corner between the wall and my dresser. I found him, laying limp. It wasn’t unusual for him to hide in that corner, but he was face-down. I picked him up, thinking he was just sleeping. He meowed at me, and I gently set him down on the bed, but then I noticed something out of the ordinary. He was paralyzed in his rear legs. I thought maybe it was small, so I called the vet and the told me it wasn’t a life or death situation and they would get back to me to get him in later that day after their staff meeting. Quickly after, he became fully paralyzed, and I called my brother crying because I had no money to help him. So my brother came over and we rushed him to the shelter to see if he was stable enough to go to the hospital the next city over. They said he wouldn’t make the drive and they suggested we take him to the hospital down the road. So we rushed there, where the doctors were all on lunch. I begged them to give him oxygen because at the shelter, his paralysis improved, he was gaining motion again. At the shelter, they tested him for Feline Panleukopenia Virus (FPV), which to put it simply is “parvo” in cats. It affects the nervous system and gastrointestinal lining. He came back negative, but they told me that even if the results were negative there was still a possibility he had it. I gave this info to the vet hospital we took him to. They told us to sit down and wait for the doctor to come back from lunch, so we did. Not very long after, my poor boy opened his mouth wide and started gasping for air. I was already hysterical, but it made me even more when I saw the state he was in. He was actively dying in my arms. The vet tech ran out to grab the vet in the parking lot, where she rushed in and they took him to the back. Moments later, the doctor came back and told me the odds of him living weren’t good. I begged her to do what she could, but she explained to me he was so dehydrated that it was beyond a clinical level. She said she could try to give him IV fluids and corn syrup on his gums to raise his blood sugar, and send us to the hospital in the next city. But, she didn’t think he would make the 45 minute drive. She said the best course of action was to euthanize him because she guessed he had a 1% survival and life-saving efforts would just prolong any potential suffering. I at first refused and told her I wanted to try the fluids and the corn syrup, but she brought me back to reality that even trying those, he wasn’t going to survive. I made the selfless decision and gave them permission to put him to sleep without any tests ran, without any effort. When I said my goodbyes, he was dying in front of me, he was barely conscious. I was screaming and crying, apologizing to him, and telling the vet tech I didn’t do this to him, I got him that way. I was irrational and confused and didn’t know what to do. My brother tried comforting me and saying it wasn’t my fault. They guessed he was born with FPV because his mother wasn’t vaccinated, so he contracted it through utero.

At 1:18 pm, my beautiful boy crossed over the rainbow bridge. I kissed his face and scratched his ears, while he peacefully ran into my late Nana’s arms in the afterlife. My brother said in his last moments, he used all the strength he had left in him to lean into me when I gave him kisses and all the lovin’s he could ask for. He died loved that day, but he also took a piece of my heart and soul with him.

We took him home to my mom’s garden where I tucked him in the ground after cradling him, cherishing my last moments with his physical body.He was tucked in my favorite shirt, just like I would with our blue blanket every night so that he would have me with him for eternity.

Since then, I have been broken to pieces and trying to find answers of what caused him to abruptly be sick. I’ve researched and researched and it was no comfort. I just want closure.

I miss my baby boy, and people think it’s weird I’m grieving a pet like I would a human, but Geralt was special in some way I can’t put my finger on.

As much as this pains me, this post is intended to remember my sweet boy. I also intend to spread awareness on why it is important to vaccinate your pets. I will never know for certain what he was sick with, it could have been completely different than what the vets thought. But please vaccinate your pets and seek medical treatment for them if they have persistent diarrhea and it’s the only symptom. His dehydration was a contributing factor despite how much water he drank. Diarrhea may seem like a small fix or make you assume worms like me. If I had sought out veterinary advise as soon as I took my boy home, I believe he would still be with me today.

Please research feline panleukopenia virus. With Geralt, he didn’t present symptoms of whatever his illness was until it was too late. Always get your babies tested and vaccinated because if you don’t think something like this can happen to you, your chances are greater than there is with vaccinated pets.

To my Geralt, I know you lived a short life and I like to think you picked me to live your last days full of love and comfort. I’m sorry couldn’t do more to save you, I will forever regret the things I never got to do for you. I will always wonder what life would be like if you stayed with me. But I know wherever you are, Nana is taking good care of you and I know you’re by my side in spirit. I miss you so much, my beautiful boy. I love you and I can’t wait until we meet again, for now I will live with you in my heart and I know you’ll be waiting on the other side of the rainbow bridge for me. ❤️🌈🐾

The War Rectangle.

It's completely troubling to me that people talk about how phones and the rest of the small, handheld, general-purpose computers we have now are such damaging acids to society's fabric. "They're raising a generation of iPad kids." "Liveleak damaged my innocence as a kid." "We don't know the full extent of the societal damage on-" It goes on and on and all the complaints are valid and need to be discussed, but they miss another, much more pertinant issue that these devices have in them; Your Phone is a dual-use technology, a weapon in every aspect in your life.

What does that term even mean? It's Military Jargon-ese for: 'This item, or thing, is used for civilian purposes, but can also easily be used in, for, or as a weapon of war at the drop of a hat.' Your phone can do this, it can do it so easily you don't even think about the dilemma that way. It's absurd and the absurdity crawled into your life while you were enthralled with being able to take the internet on the go.

You can kill a man with your phone and an FPV drone. Your choice in how he dies, from a dropped grenade or an RPG warhead duct taped to the front, or a million other ways to plant a payload into his body. You can even record a video of his death as your own little trophy to display. You can spot for artillery, interface with GPS-based navigation software and push out corrections to your entire teams tactical map, turn manhunts into trivial pursuits, upload intellegence of almost any kind to wherever it needs to go. They don't even need special phones to do this, they've been using 'Commercial-Off-The-Shelf' hardware since the early 2010's. You already knew that, though.

You can drain a persons life savings from their bank account, all from the park bench they passed you by. There's a million little holes in the systems that let you "manage" the money under your name that isn't even yours, and it only takes serendipity for someone fidding around to find a lucrative crack in the armor. Contactless payment, NFC and payment processors are just as big a vunerability as they are a convience. They don't even have to inconvience you to steal from you. But, You already knew that.

You can track people from their phones, with yours. It's not even hard, you probably haven't even thought about searching for the software to do it. Current Wifi and cellular chipsets can be used to sniff networks and track other end-user devices on them. You can war drive with a flagship smartphone if you need to, and modern laptops are more than capable of doing it now. You can hand off your entire life, digitally recorded, to a stranger without even knowing it, just likeyour money. Apple had to add additional software safeguards to Airtags because people used them to stalk other people by putting them in cars or other objects that people take with them. It's a service that uses regular peoples iPhones to make a gigantic network to ping that Airtags location to a central server somewhere in the bowels of Apple, and them beams it to you, keeping all that data in the meanwhile. You didn't pause to think about it, but you already knew that.

The algorithms people are concerned about, that they're still letting raise their kids, are more than just the content reccomendation they do. You can pattern an entire persons IQ quotient, disposition, disabilites, mental faculties, and politics just off their engagement with a service. Researchers could predict when people with BPD and gambling disorder would relapse or go on a gambling spree with a near 99% efficiency. Facebook openly admitted to experimenting on people to boost engagement with the site, negative content greatly encouraging extended interaction. Countless other sites with countless other controversies and manipulations and yet it still became normal under tired, doomscrolling eyes. Any government with enough arm-twisting, money, or subterfuge can buy, obtain, steal, and then scrutinize your digital identity, and then nudge you in the ways governments want to. It's still basic, baby steps now. Imagine how it'll be in a decades time when you can spool up an AI and feed it information about the algorithms your children use, in real time, feed the information it predicts about them back into those algorithms, all the time, to give them the right ideas, at the right moment, in the right tone, and they'll feel like those positions were just something they developed themselves, even if it was their clone who nudged them into an artificial headspace at the behest of a meeting in a government building somewhere. Again, you already knew that, it was just the quiet bit no one wanted to spit out lest they get odd looks.

We'll still use them though. Our progeny will still use them. In a sea of endless information, you have to stay plugged in, lest everything and everyone else pass you in the blink of an eye, like an F1 driver making a bad move, and getting thrown to back of the pack. No time to think. There's a weapon raised against you by leviathan hands in your pocket. You bought it and paid for it, your tax payed for the rest of it as well, and its aimed at your loved ones too. And you're running out of time in the epoch before its indispensable in your world, and your kids.

💥[A Russian self-guided Motiv-3M is used for the first time in central Avdiivka to target a Ukrainian stronghold]💥

🇷🇺🇺🇦 🚨 💥RUSSO-UKRAINIAN WAR UPDATE DAY 621💥

In the Zelensky direction:

A reminder that Ukrainian drug addict President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed an extension of the Martial Law and General Mobilization for a period of an additional 90 days. This will bring the next period of Martial law and mobilization to set to expire on February 14th, 2024 according to People's Deputy Zheleznyak.

Ukrainian drug addict President Zelensky's Presidential term is set to expire on the 31st of March, 2024. However, under Ukrainian Law, the Presidential elections cannot take place during a period of Martial Law, according to the Ukrainian Election's Commission. This means that no matter when the current President's term expires, he will remain in the position until the period of Martial Law ends.

However, it is expected that, come February, drug addict President Zelensky will sign another extension of the Martial Law and General Mobilization, extending the life of his Presidency further.

This would place the next Martial Law experation in the month of May, 2024, well after the experation of his Presidential term. Affectively, this will require Zelensky to sign an extension of the Martial Law before it expires each time, and if he does not, he will automatically lose his position. This of course will require the full cooperation of the Ukrainian Parliament, passing extensions of the Martial Law well in advance of its experation, and any delay could mean chaos for the Ukrainian political system.

In the Kherson direction:

According to the Ministry of Defense (MoD) of the Russian Federation, Ukrainian Forces lost 55 soldiers, two armored vehicles, and two artillery pieces.

According to video evidence geolocated to the Ukrainian foothold on the left bank of the Dnieper on the eastern outskirts of Pidstepne, two Ukrainian armored vehicles were damaged or destroyed by Russian artillery.

On the Ukrainian foothold in Krynky, Russian Forces were targeting Ukrainian vehicles along the islands between the village and the Dnieper, suggesting Ukrainian Forces have in fact managed to bring some vehicles into the village.

Russian Forces also launched a powerful missile strike on Ukrainian positions on the western outskirts of Krynky, suggesting Ukrainian Forces have managed to expand their zone of control in this area.

However, it is important to keep in mind that Ukrainian losses increased tremendously in this area after the development of the two footholds, and many observers see this as a purposeful strategy Russian Forces use to increase the attritional rate on the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

By allowing them to extend their zone of control without the proper cover, fortifications and logistics, the rate of attrition on their forces increases multifold.

Russian Forces were also using modern Lancet drones to target Ukrainian artillery, with several successful strikes along the Dnieper, and at least one successful FPV drone strike by Ukrainian Forces targeted a Russian radar battery south of Kairy, also along the Dnieper.

In the Zaporizhzhia direction:

Ukrainian Forces targeted a Russian air defense system along the Russian Defense belt north of Burchak using HIMARS missiles. However, the strike missed its target narrowly, though shrapnel from the explosion successfully damaged the battery, forcing Russian Forces to remove the battery from the battlefield.

In Robotyne, Russian Forces continue successfully bombing and shelling Ukrainian armored vehicles, concentrations of soldiers, and artillery batteries along the western and southwestern flanks of the city. The attrition rate here is especially high. Both tactically, and strategically, with the offensive now essentially over, it doesn't make much sense for Ukrainian Forces to hold this area. Russian Forces seem satisfied with the status quo, choosing not to launch ground operations in this area in exchange for a successful grinding operation, similar to the Artemovsk area before the storming operation by Wagner PMC began.

It would make more sense for Ukrainian Forces to pull back to a more defendable position with natural barriers and dig in and fortify there. One wonders if it isn't simply political concerns keeping Ukrainian Forces dying here?

Similarly, on the west of Verbove, Russian Forces were heavily bombing and shelling Ukrainian troop rotations and attempts to bring in reserves. With video evidence in recent days showing the destruction of an armored personnel carrier filled with Ukrainian soldiers using ATGM rockets.

According the Russian MoD, Ukrainian Forces lost 60 soldiers, three armored vehicles and two artillery systems in this area as a result of the heavy bombing, shelling and drone usage in the Zaporizhzhia area.

It should also be mentioned that Ukrainian Forces in this area have been relying heavily on FPV drone operations, successfully targeting Russian radar and air defense batteries far south of the frontlines. With video published by Ukrainian Forces showing the destruction of Russian military assets in the fields southwest of Verbove and west of Romanivsky, a considerable distance from Ukrainian positions to the north.

In the Vremivka tactical salient direction:

No updates from the Vremivka tactical salient itself whatsoever at this time.

East of the Vremivka tactical salient, in the fields between Novoukrainka and Prechystivka, Russian Forces were using Lancet drones to successfully target Ukrainian artillery batteries in this area, dealing significant damage to the Ukrainians ability to slow Russian operations in this area.

Southeast of Ughledar:

Russian Forces continue offensive operations in the area northeast of Mykilske, with Russian sources claiming RU Forces have penetrated the Ukrainian trench networks and fortifications along the treelines and in the fields northeast of the village.

Meanwhile, to keep Ukrainian reserves from arriving in this area, the Russian Forces operating in the village of Pavlivka have been keeping Ukrainian Forces in Ughledar busy with heavy bombing raids and constant shelling, using a variety of bombs and missiles including FAB500s, TOS Flamethrower systems and other multiple launch rocket systems, howitzers, mortars and, of course, a non-stop barrage of FPV drone assaults and Lancet strikes.

In the South Donetsk area:

Russian Forces continue offensive operations along the treelines and fields south of Novomykhailivka, with Russian Forces constantly working to demine the fields here. Video published show Russian de-mining equipment striking powerful mines in this area, with crews surviving to continue their work in another vehicle quickly brought to the front. There is simply is no substitute for solid logistical supply chains, and Russian work in the South Donetsk region exemplifies this.

Of course, none of this comes without cost, and Ukrainian video evidence gives examples of this again and again as they successfully use FPV drones to kill Russian soldiers in the trenches in the fields. Losses are no doubt heavy for the Russian Forces here.

In the north of Novomykhailivka, in the area south of Marinka, Ukrainian Forces successfully targeted a Russian tank headed to the frontline in Novomykhailivka, taking one armored vehicle off the road for a time, and perhaps slowing de-mining operations north of the city.

A lot of the fighting in this area is not clear, but what is clear is that fighting in this area is very intense, and we expect more solid updates to come from this area in the coming days.

In the territory west of Marinka, Russian Forces successfully targeting a Ukrainian Streta air defense system in the fields north of Antonivka, while also striking a Multiple launch rocket system in the fields west of Pobieda. These strikes do considerable damage to the ability of Ukrainian Forces to provide cover for their troops defending Marinka and other towns and villages in the region. According to the Russian MoD, Ukrainians Forces have lost 70 soldiers in the South Donetsk territory.

In the Avdiivka direction:

Russian Forces continue offensive operations in the south of Avdiivka, aiming to expand their zone of control over the territory of the fields stretching from the north of Vodiane to the north of Opytne, expanding the base of the southern pincer as Russian Forces hope to encircle Avdiivka, or at least establish fire control over all the entrances to the city.

But first, Russian Forces aim to broaden the base of the southern pincer to support the troops they intend on pushing further to north eventually, as they have currently established control over most, if not all of the fields south of the village of Sieverne.

On the northern Avdiivka pincer:

Russian Forces continue offensive operations aiming to push northwest of Kransohorivka, advancing along the railways by hammering the Ukrainians positions using tanks and self-propelled artillery.

Currently, Russian Forces use these weapons from the fields west of Kransohorivka to target the rail lines and soften these positions for further ground operations advancing to the west and northwest.

No evidence has yet been published to show Russian Forces inside Stepove at this time, however some sources say an assault has already begun, others do not mention it.

In the southern forest fortifications and trench networks south of Avdiivka, Russian Forces pulled back slightly from positions they had recently taken north of the M30 highway here due to the difficulty of resupplying the positions under heavy fire.

In central Avdiivka, Russian Forces used a completely new weapon, using their Motiv-3M in the field for the first time in Avidiivka. A self-targeting cluster munition, the Motiv-3M is loaded with infrared sensors that can be launched by rocket, missile or guided bomb. It can recognize and target new assets in-flight and correct for navigation to new targets, a significant improvement to prior munitions of this kind.

Similarly, the new self-guided Lancets being deployed across the frontline is dealing significant damage to Ukrainian assets in the field.

For example, Russian Forces successfully targeted a Ukrainian Bradley in the area northeast of Novokalynove as Ukrainian Forces attempt to bring strategic reserves into this area in order to launch offensive operations to add pressure to the Russian Forces pushing north from the vacinity of Novobakhmutovka make the Avidiivka offensive more difficult.

Another Lancet drone was used to strike a Ukrainian radar battery hidden in the treelines running north to south in between Stepanivka and Ivanopillia, south of Kostiantynivka.

In the Artemovsk Direction:

Heavy fighting continues in Andriivka as Ukrainian Forces launch offensive operations pushing south into Kurdiumivka and Zelenopillia.

However, Russian Forces launched a counter operation to north of Artemovsk, in the area south of the Bohdanivka Reservoir while using Lancet and FPV drones to hammer Ukrainian manpower north of Khromove. This added pressure is intended to pull Ukrainian reserves out of the Andriivka offensive, while the Ukrainian offensive seems intended to divert Russian reserves from the Bohdanivka Reservoir offensive. And so, it's not particularly clear who's gaining the upper hand here. However, this thinking is short-term, because unless Ukrainian Forces get a significant influx of manpower and equipment soon, they are likely to find themselves losing ground rapidly before long.

In the Kupiansk-Lyman direction:

According to Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, Ukrainian Forces lost 160 soldiers in this area and another 170 in Lyman.

In the area south of Pershotravneve, Russian Forces expanded their zone of control over Ukrainian positions in this area, and now have fire control over large areas occupied by Ukrainian Forces in this area.
