⚡️ Urgent Press Sources:

The preemptive strike launched by #Israel on #Lebanon hit missile launchers that were aiming to fire on Tel Aviv at 05:00 local time.

Israeli media is estimating that Hezbollah will attack Tel Aviv in the coming hours.

Rocket salvos have not stopped yet, but it appears that they may have slowed down.

⚡️ #Lebanon: Islamic Resistance: The first phase, which targeted #Israeli barracks and sites, has been completed with complete success.

Apparently over 320 rockets have been fired so far.

⭕️ Hezbullah issues a statement stating that the phase 1 of the attack is completed.

This phase included engaging the Israeli army with more than 320 rockets, to make way for the drones that successfully impacted their targets.

They attacked the following:
1- Miron base
2- Navi Ziv's base
3- Zaatoun base
4- Al-Zaoura barracks
5- Al-Sahel base
6- Kilaa barracks
7- UF barracks
8- Nafah base
9- Yarden base
10 - Ein Zitim base
11- Ramot Naftali Barracks

Israeli media sources: Estimates in #Israel are that #Hezbollah is preparing to launch about 1,000 rockets deep into #Israel.

Missiles have been fired on Sumy, Kharkov and the south all night and into this morning. We might be getting a lot of videos soon.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces have captured the rest of Mykolaivka and have advanced to the Marynivka gas station.

This was done by securing the eastern flank along the treelines near the source of one of the tributaries of the Vovcha river, before advancing to positions on the E50 highway.

This confirms that most supplies to the Karlivka area have been cut, which will significantly deteriorate the situation in the village. This lines up exactly with the renewed Russian assaults inside Karlivka.

This advance also threatens to undermine the whole defence of the Selydove area. Marynivka might be stormed from the south and the north with a pincer movement, and the Terykon near Selydove will likely be taken in a matter of days if it hasn't fallen already.

Overall, Russian forces continue to advance through fields and positions in the Pokrovsk direction without much resistance from the AFU. It appears that Ukraine's manpower issues are reaching a breaking point and that the Russian advance will speed up as it approaches the next major towns/cities.

Geolocated footage indicates that Russian forces advanced in the Toretsk direction and finally captured the town of Pivnichne.

Following an assault on the Pivnichna mine, Russian forces managed to dislodge Ukrainian positions in the residential area further east. It is unknown who controls the nearby terykon right now, however.

Additional geolocated footage shows that Russian forces managed to advance into eastern Toretsk and captured positions in the high-rise micro-district and the pharmacy, advancing for ~970m. However, based on reliable reports, it appears that Russia has captured the entirely of the micro-district, although there is no visual confirmation of this yet.

Overall, Russian forces continue to dislodge Ukrainian forces from positions and are apparently progressing in Toretsk without much resistance. This plus the advance into the city further south indicate that Toretsk will fall in a matter of weeks.

Colours for the map:
Red = confirmed Russian control
Yellow = confirmed Russian advances
Purple = likely Russian advances.

It is reported that Russian forces captured the Ukrainian stronghold along the O0532 road and the surrounding treelines and fields.

If true, this could mean that assault operations on Vodyane are imminent.

I have a feeling that Vodyane might be the next target for Russian forces. They have been advancing in the direction of the village for some time now and capturing it would offer strategic value.

Vodyane is situated on a small hill overlooking a gulley in which the O0532 road runs through. If the Russians choose to go down the path of attacking Vuhledar along the O0532 road, Ukrainian forces will have fire control and full surveillance over a small stretch of this road.

Additionally, depending on how much manpower is in the area at the time, there may even be small Ukrainian counterattacks conducted.

It is reported that Russian forces are advancing on the flanks of Kalynove, likely in an attempt to cut the E50 highway again and encircle the settlement.

This could suggest that the original head on assaults from the north were unsuccessful, possibly due to one of the tributaries of the Vovcha river being in the way. Advancing on the western flank allows the Russians to bypass the water obstacle.

As an interesting fact on this front, Russian forces are now closer to Dnipropetrovsk Oblast than to the city of Donetsk.

According to a Ukrainian source, Russian forces have captured most the Novohrodivka town centre and are conducting pincer movements on the park area. If true, the main part of the town is about to fall.
