Russian forces have captured the village of Lukyanivske, Komyshuvakha direction, Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~143.
Total land area: ~0.73 km².

The fighting for Lukyanivske lasted approximately 25 days.

In the Komyshuvakha direction, Russian forces continued their offensive operations and have made significant progress in the direction of the Konka River.

In the west, Russian forces completed the clearing of central and northern Stepnohirsk, bringing the town under their full control. This allowed for them to fully shift their focus to areas further north, with assault groups taking up new positions in the treelines and forest plantations there.

Other forces continued infiltrating west from Primorske, and finally consolidated in the area of the pumping station and orchards. Infiltrations are now being carried out further north up the highway and then to the northeast through the fields in the direction of Mahdalynivka. Russian MLRS shelling is constantly targeting these areas, supporting the offensive effort.

Additionally, Russian forces advanced from the central part of Prymorske to the northern streets of the village, consolidating in the last part of the main residential area. Fighting is now ongoing for the dachas on the northern outskirts, and infiltrations are taking place further northeast, where they managed to reach the bridge over the Konka River and cut the E-105 Highway. The Ukrainians responded by blowing up the bridge to prevent further Russian advancement. Russian forces also continued infiltrating east from northern Prymorske and captured part of the forests there.

In the east, Russian forces managed to consolidate in the western part of Lukyanivske, including in the agricultural buildings, and captured treeline positions to the south and southeast. As a result of these advances, they were able to bring the rest of the village under their control, and seize the treeline to the north, from which infiltrations are now being carried out even further north in the direction of Mahdalynivka. Due to these sudden advances, Russian DRGs managed to ambush Ukrainian drone operators in the village, probably resulting in casualties for the Ukrainians.

+ ~17.52 km² in favour of Russia.

Sentinel satellite imagery reveals that due to the rapidly deteriorating situation western Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Ukrainian forces blew up the highway bridge over the Konka River in the village of Hryhorivka.

Russian forces recently achieved a localised breakthrough in this direction, quickly reaching the bridge. These Russian actions are aimed at capturing everything south of the Konka River, and creating a large right flank for the stronghold city of Orikhiv, which will eventually be used to encircle and capture the city. The Ukrainians are attempting to contain this advance against the Konka River.

In the Orikhiv direction, Russian forces continued their assault operations in Mala Tokmachka and have made new progress.

After regaining the initiative and expanding their foothold in the eastern part of Mala Tokmachka again, Russian forces continued advancing west and have captured new positions along the highway north of the ruins of the prison. They also improved their positions in the streets to the north, approaching the centre of the village.

+ ~0.44 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Omelnyk direction, both Russian and Ukrainian forces have advanced, with Russian forces continuing their intensified assault operations aimed at establishing a large bridgehead west of the Haichur River.

In the north, the Russians began clearing the grey-zone that formed east of the Haichur River in November/December. They were able to recapture positions in numerous treelines, primarily north of the gulley that stretches southeast from southern Dobropillya. From there, they managed to infiltrate west through a gap in Ukrainian defences and entered the village of Pryluky and the trench fortifications to the west. Ukrainian forces are counterattacking, with heavy fighting ongoing for the trenches there.

To the south, following earlier infiltrations by DRGs, Russian forces advanced from northwestern Hulyaipole and managed to enter and capture the village of Zelene. From there, they continued infiltrating the village of Sviatopetrivka from the northeast, which remains in the grey-zone for now. They also captured new treeline positions southwest of Zelene. Additionally, the Russians continued their infiltrations across the Haichur River from Varvarivka, into the southern part of Olenokostiantynivka.

In the south, Russian forces continued incrementally advancing southwest of Hulyaipole, and managed to captured new treeline positions in the treelines west of the highway. Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces managed to complete the clearing operations in eastern Zaliznychne, bringing the town back under their control.

+ ~13.17 km² in favour of Russia.
+ ~0.62 km² in favour of Ukraine.

In the Dobropillya direction, Ukrainian forces resumed their counterattacks in the direction of Udachne, making new progress.

Following their earlier failed attempts at entering the town from the northwest, Ukrainian forces launched a new series of attacks from the west. They first advanced south down the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk Regional Border to the poorly consolidated Russian positions in northern Molodetske, which subsequently shifted into the grey-zone.

Then, without consolidating, the Ukrainians infiltrated further east along the railway line and are trying to accumulate just west of Udachne. Russian FPV drone operators are attempting to cover the infiltration routes in order to limit the number of soldiers reaching the western approaches to the town.

In the east, Ukrainian forces counterattacked in the direction of the railway line between Kotlyne and Udachne, recapturing positions along three parallel treelines.

Meanwhile, Russian forces continued their attacks both east and west of the Pokrovsk Coal Mine's waste dumps, while DRGs began infiltrating further northwest through the forest plantations in the direction of Serhiivka.

+ ~1.44 km² in favour of Ukraine.

Kh-59/69 missile to Boromyla, Sumy Oblast.

Launched from a Su-57

In the Dobropillya and Druzhkivka directions, Russian forces continued their assault operations on a wide front, making new progress in four different areas.

In the south, following several attempts, Russian infantry managed to gain a foothold in the railway windbreaks north of Rodynske and began accumulating infantry for additional attacks through the windbreaks further west. Other forces in central Rodynske managed to infiltrate the former "Zaporozhskaya" Mine west of the city. Fighting also continues for central Zatyshok, where the Russians are trying to dislodge the remaining Ukrainian soldiers.

To the north, Russian forces managed to consolidate in two more clay mines, along with additional forested areas and treelines. Attacks are now being carried out further north, where assault groups have reached the southern outskirts of Kucheriv Yar once again. Renewed fighting is also ongoing for Ivanivka, and Russian soldiers are continuing their attacks in western Nove Shakhove.

To the northeast, Russian forces continued advancing north from Shakhove and captured new positions southwest of Toretske. Fighting is ongoing for a large trench fortification there. Additionally, Russian forces managed to further improve their positions in the treelines northeast of Sofiivka.

+ ~7.55 km² in favour of Russia.

The Kh-59/69 cruise missile was shot down as it approached the Sumy-Poltava border.

An explosion was heard in Sumy, likely from the launch of a patriot missile which intercepted the Russian missile.

A Russian Su-57 continues to fly in Kursk Oblast, covered by a Su-35.

Footage has been released showing last night's Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strike on eastern Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

1 missile (not 2) targeted a concentration of Ukrainian manpower and vehicles near the village of Troitske, just east of Petropavlivka.

For some reason, after months of constant updates, all of the so-called Pro-Ukrainian sources aren't reporting on the Dobropillya direction anymore... 🤔

As I've said before, your silence and selective reporting is a betrayal to Ukraine - the country you claim to support so much.

New footage shows FP-2 drones of the Ukrainian "Kairos" battalion of the 414th Special Operations Brigade striking rear Russian targets in Donetsk Oblast.

The following was hit:

- "Myrna" 330 kV electrical substation in the city of Mariupol (47.185541, 37.561191) by 2 drones. 2 of the substation's transformers were damaged.

- "Azovska" 220 kV electrical substation in the city of Mariupol (47.164252,37.513224) by 1 drone. 1 of the substations transformers was damaged.

- Warehouses containing rockets and artillery shells of the Russian 51st Guards Combined Arms Army in Donetsk City (48.065319,37.851658) by 2 drones. A fire broke out, followed by secondary detonations.

Additionally, it is claimed that drones also struck an oil depot in the city of Makiivka.

In the Kostyanytnivka direction, both sides have advanced, with Russian forces continuing to collapse Ukrainian defences southwest of Kostyantynivka.

In the west, Russian forces continued their attacks in the direction of Stepanivka and managed to capture the remaining positions in the forest plantations west of the village, before entering its first houses (without consolidating yet). Russian attacks also continued from the treelines to the south.

To the southeast, Russian forces continued advancing east along the highway, capturing new positions in the treelines there and operationally encircling Ukrainian formations in their strongpoints to the south. Other assault groups are now clearing out the pocket, capturing strongpoints in the forests.

Meanwhile, Russian forces continued infiltrating in small groups through the forests and into the village of Illinivka. Ukrainian drone operators continue attempts at fully eliminating the Russian groupings there, however the total number of Russian soldiers recorded in the village is growing.

To the east, Russian forces consolidated in additional positions in the forests on the northern bank of the Kleban-Byksky reservoir, and managed to enter the agricultural buildings on the southern outskirts of Beretok. On the other hand, the Ukrainians are continuing their incremental withdrawal from their last positions in the forests north of the reservoir due to the risk of encirclement.

To the northeast, Russian forces continued to advance in Kostyantynivka, and began bypassing the railway station from the north, capturing positions in the residential streets across the highway. However, more recently, they have begun struggling with supplies due to increased Ukrainian FPV drone strikes on the area between the city and Oleksandro-Shultyne.

Meanwhile, at some point recently, Ukrainian forces managed to clear the Hora District of northeastern Kostyantynivka from Russian DRGs, as well as the adjacent forests, where they are now trying to accumulate. Additionally, the Ukrainians infiltrated across the fields south of the highway and recaptured the western and central parts of Predtechyne again. They also improved their positions in the forests just north of the highway.

Russian forces are now trying to counterattack in Predtechyne, and continue their attempts at consolidating in the eastern part of the forests north of the highway. DRGs are also infiltrating further west through the treelines, where they were able to reach the village of Novodmytrivka. This has resulted in some of the Ukrainian formations in the salient west of Chasiv Yar withdrawing further west.

+ ~5.24 km² in favour of Russia.
+ ~3.97 km² in favour of Ukraine.
