Changes on the frontline in Ukraine for January 2026:
Yellow = Russian advances
Light blue = Ukrainian advances
Russian advances:
Donetsk Oblast: ~167.09 km²
Zaporizhzhia Oblast: ~82.35 km²
Kharkiv Oblast: ~48.51 km²
Sumy Oblast: ~33.53 km²
Dnipropetrovsk Oblast: ~14.94 km²
Kursk Oblast: ~3.47 km²
Luhansk Oblast: ~1.75 km²
Belgorod Oblast: ~1.72 km²
Total: ~352.00 km² (down by 43.64%)
Total (excluding Kursk & Belgorod): ~346.81 km²
Ukrainian advances:
Donetsk Oblast: ~16.00 km²
Dnipropetrovsk Oblast: ~5.99 km²
Kharkiv Oblast: ~3.02 km²
Zaporizhzhia Oblast: ~2.72 km²
Luhansk Oblast: ~0.42 km²
Sumy Oblast: 0.29 km²
Total: ~28.44 km² (down by 68.56%).
Note: This covers net gains for each side. Ukrainian advances that took place on territory Russia occupied within this month will simply be subtracted from the Russian total, and vice versa.

Last night and this morning, another large-scale, combined Russian missile and drone attack was carried out on Ukraine. Missiles launched: ~20 Iskander-M ballistic missiles launched from OTRK installations near Taganrog, Rostov Oblast. ~5 Iskander-M ballistic…
Important update/correction on the figures from last night's Russian missile attack:
The types of missiles that I and others mentioned were incorrect.
- The 6 Kh-101 cruise missiles which I stated were launched from 2 Tu-95MS strategic bombers in Vologda Oblast were actually 8 Iskander-K cruise missiles launched from OTRK installations in Kursk Oblast. These went on to target the Trypillya Thermal Power Plant in Kyiv Oblast.
- The 15 Kh-101 cruise missiles which I stated were launched from Tu-95MS in the Caspian Sea were actually 12 Iskander-K cruise missiles launched from OTRK installations in Kursk Oblast. These went on to target energy infrastructure in Vinnytsia Oblast.
- The 12 Kalibr cruise missiles which I stated were launched from surface-carriers in the Caspian Sea were actually 18 Kh-101 cruise missiles launched from 3 Tu-95MS.
- 4 Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles were used, not 2. The missiles were launched twice in pairs from Cape Chauda, Crimea, but were only detected as single units each time. All 4 missiles struck the "Kyiv" 750 kV electrical substation.
This means: No Kalibrs were used, and only 3 out of 7 Tu-95s carried out launch maneuvers last night. At least 6 of these bombers have since landed back at Olenya Airbase. 4 Tu-95MS are likely still equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles, which could be used for another attack in the coming days.
Additionally, after my summary was posted, another 3 Kh-32 cruise missiles were launched from a Tu-22m3 strategic bomber northeast of Unecha, Bryansk Oblast, targeting the Trypillya Thermal Power Plant.
I will post an updated summary based on this information below ⬇️

There were 3 of these interceptions, which I have visually confirmed. Unfortunately I cannot post the videos here, for obvious reasons.

Satellite imagery shows significant damage to the Zmiivska Thermal Power Plant in Kharkiv Oblast, including the 330 kV and 110 kV substations, along with 4 of the generator transformers, as a result of Russia's most recent combined missile attack.
5 craters from Iskander-M ballistic missiles are visible, which is 1 more impact than what I previously reported.
Notably, the TPP has halted all power generation.

Satellite imagery shows that the "Vinnytsya" 750 kV electrical substation was targeted in Russia's most recent combined missile attack on Ukraine.
2 craters from Kh-101/Iskander-K cruise missiles are visible at the substation, while a third crater is seen in the neighbouring field ~390 metres away due to one of the missiles missing its target.
Coordinates: 49.165, 28.72248

Satellite imagery shows new damage to the "Kyiv" 750 kV electrical substation after it was targeted by numerous Russian Kh-22/32 cruise missiles and Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles.
Notably, a number of craters and burn marks are visible outside the substation, indicating that some of the less accurate Kh-22 missiles were used alongside Kh-32s.
Damage is also seen to the substation itself in at least three locations due to missile impacts.

The missile near Zaporizhzhia was also MLRS, which targeted something south of the city.
The Tu-22m3 appears to just be carrying out a patrol in the eastern Black Sea, alongside a Su-57.
