Rocket alerts in northern Israel

Elements of Ukraine's 425th assault regiment "Skala" have been redeployed to the Slovyansk/Rai-Oleksandrivka direction in an attempt at slowing down the relatively rapid Russian progress in this sector.

As I've been saying for months, Russian advances west of Siversk and northwest of Bakhmut towards the cities of Mykolaivka, Slovyansk, and Kramatorsk are extremely dangerous for Ukraine. In my opinion, this is THE MOST critical front for Ukraine right now. After capturing the stronghold city of Siversk and the surrounding heavily fortified areas, Russia has been able to capture most of the heavily fortified areas west of Siversk, which have been held for nearly 4 years.

Due to their massive concentration of manpower in this direction, their successful movements on the opposite bank of the Siverskyi Donets River in the adjacent Lyman sector, and the presence of major logistical hubs (Lysychansk, Severodonetsk, and now Siversk), Russia has been able to enter and consolidate positions at an unprecedently fast rate. Artillery shells are now striking the eastern suburbs of Kramatorsk for the first time ever, and FPV drones are flying freely over both Slovyansk and Kramatorsk, forcing Ukraine to construct anti-drone nets on the city streets and logistical routes.

It's unclear where these elements of the 425th regiment were redeployed from as this unit is currently stretched across multiple fronts, but in my opinion it likely came from the Pokrovs'ke direction where it was previously deployed to take part in the ongoing counteroffensive. This is because its redeployment from there was reported (but never confirmed) last month.

I wouldn't be surprised if other units are sent to this sector in order to slow Russian advances. Ukraine's goal is likely to halt Russia's advance before they can capture the remaining tactical heights and "old" fortifications east of the Siverskyi Donets Canal and Mykolaivka.

Pisky, Donetsk Oblast. Right on the outskirts of Donetsk City.

Its crazy that there used to be an entire town here with houses and apartment buildings, rather than just a field of debris.
