Ukrainian forces have begun counteroffensive operations in the Hulyaipole and Pokrovs'ke directions.
The attacks, which initially began on February 5, are taking place on at least 9 vectors. Ukrainian forces, utilising a significant amount of manpower and equipment, are attacking from Orestopil in the direction of Kalynivske and Berestove, from Ternuvate and Prydorozhnje in the direction of Kosivtseve, from Vozdvyzhivka in the direction of Pryluky and Varvarivka, from Radisne in the direction of Zlahoda and Dobropillya, and from the railway line towards southern Hulyaipole.
So far, Ukrainian forces have been able to clear Ternuvate and Prydorozhnje, and have entered Dobropillya and Pryluky. According to unconfirmed reports, they were able to break through several kilometres to Berestove and Kalynivka, although Russian sources deny this.
The attacks are taking place in conjunction with the disabling of Russian Starlink terminals, which is likely having an effect on Russia's ability to defend.

In the Rai-Oleksandrivka and Lyman directions, Russian forces continued their offensive operations and have made significant progress.
In the southeast, Russian forces continued slowly advancing through Riznykivka, amid fierce Ukrainian resistance. They were able to improve their positions in the eastern part of the village, while Ukrainian forces continued to unsuccessfully attack Russian positions in the forest on the tactical heights to the north.
To the northwest, Russian forces continued breaking through Ukrainian positions along the treelines south of Zakitne, and broke into the chalk hills along the eastern bank of the Siverskyi Donets River. This allowed for them to turn south and captured treeline positions east of Kryva Luka, while other assault groups seized positions in the forests and treelines to the east, forcing the remaining Ukrainian soldiers to withdraw south towards the tactical heights north of Riznykivka.
Meanwhile, the Russians managed to break through Ukrainian defences in the western part of Zakitne and occupy most of the rest of the village. Fighting continues with isolated Ukrainain groupings in the northwestern streets, with Russian forces begin taking strongpoints in the hills southwest of the village. Additionally, the Russians advanced from the southeastern part of Ozerne and captured positions in the forests around Moskvyna Lake. Some soldiers have infiltrated further to the western bank of the Siverskyi Donets River.
Further northwest, Russian forces continued advancing in the vicinity of Dibrova and captured new positions in the forests west of the village, breaking through in the direction of the Siverskyi Donets River.
+ ~9.30 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Svyatohirsk and Borova directions, Russian forces continued their assault operations, making new progress in two different areas.
In the northeast, Russian forces captured new positions in the forest plantations southwest of Korovii Yar and entrenched along the Korovii Yar - Oleksandrivka Road. Other assault groups continued their attacks against Ukrainian strongpoints southeast of Korovii Yar, without success.
To the southwest, Russian forces continued slowly advancing through the forests of the Sviati Hory National Park, capturing new positions in the direction of the Oleksandrivka - Sosnove Road. Attacks also continued in eastern and western Oleksandrivka, where the Russians were able to enter the western part of the village.
To the south, the Russians were forced to abandon most of their positions in the northern part of Svyatohirsk, resulting in a large grey-zone forming. They do still retain positions in the northernmost buildings of the city, however.
+ ~0.86 km² in favour of Russia.

Locations of Russian crossings over the international border since the beginning of the year.
These actions are aimed at drawing limited Ukrainian manpower and equipment away from more important sectors of the frontline, further stretching Ukraine's ability to put up resistance, and therefore accelerating the rate of attrition.

Regarding the next Russian combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine, which will likely take place in the next 4 days:
4 Tu-95MS strategic bombers have redeployed from Dyagilevo Airbase, Ryazan Oblast, to Engels-2 Airbase, Saratov Oblast. They will be equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles, which have been delivered to the airbase by an An-124-100 "Ruslan" cargo plane and an IL-76MD cargo plane.
Additionally, 2 Tu-95MS bombers which were equipped with missiles some time around February 1, remain at Olenya Airbase, and will likely be used in this upcoming attack.
The 5 other Tu-95MS bombers currently being used for combat purposes (along with the 2 Tu-160s) remain in the far east, some of which were equipped with missiles at Engels-2 on February 7 as I previously reported. They are not expected to be used in combat missions until after the coldest part of winter.
This will likely be the last large-scale attack involving strategic aviation (not including Tu-22m3 bombers) for the rest of the coldest days of winter, as Russia works to replenish their stockpile of Kh-101 missiles. The next attacks after this will involve missiles other than Kh-101s, such as Kinzhals, Iskander-Ks, Iskander-Ms, Kalibrs, Kh-59/69s, and Kh-22/32s.
More details on this attack will be provided later.

A Ukrainian Mi-24 of the 11th Separate Army Aviation Brigade crashed while carrying out a combat mission in Kherson Oblast. The crew didn’t survive.
Reportedly, it collided with a drone. It’s unclear if this was a purposeful Russian interception or an accident.
