Explosion in Krolevets, Sumy Oblast.

The missile impacted east of Krolevets, Sumy Oblast. It was likely a Kh-59/69 cruise missile. There may be repeated launches

Correction: This was an R-37/77 air-to-air missile (launched by a Su-35) targeting a Ukrainian fighter jet. The explosion heard was either from the missile self-destructing or a Ukrainian aircraft being shot down.

⚡️🇵🇸 NYT: Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has been positioning his son, Yasser, for a senior leadership role in the Fatah party.

The move comes as the 90‑year‑old leader faces growing international pressure for political reforms and as many Palestinians yearn for new leadership.

Yasser Abbas, 64, has sought a seat on Fatah’s Central Committee, and has taken on a more public role as an envoy to Lebanon.

Some senior Fatah officials have privately opposed the move but fear retribution. Analysts say the push undermines efforts to rebrand Fatah as a viable political alternative to Hamas.

Russia and Ukraine conducted another exchange of dead soldiers.

41 Russian bodies were exchanged for 525 Ukrainian bodies.

Possible Iskander-M ballistic missile launch from Crimea

Something was launched from Cape Fiolent, Crimea.

Possible Iskander on Odesa

Explosions in Sevastopol, Crimea. This was definitely an air defence missile.

Russian source Fighterbomber claims that the Russian interception attempt by a Su-35 against a Ukrainian F-16 using an R-37/77 air-to-air missile that I reported on earlier today was likely successful.

Next time people claim I am fabricating reports on Russia/Ukrainian interception attempts against aircraft for propaganda purposes, you can send them this.

Regarding the claim of Russian control over Charvine, Zaporizhzhia Oblast:

Russian forces have been making significant advances in this area, but the village is not under their control yet. Despite the flag raises, they have only captured the eastern half of the settlement. Clearing operations are ongoing in the western half, while heavy artillery, MLRS and KAB strikes are targeting Ukrainian strongpoints on the western outskirts.

It is expected that the village will fall in the next couple of days.

Hezbollah issued a statement saying that they targeting an Israeli helicopter over the town of Al-Bayada, southern Lebanon, with a surface-to-air missile.

The interception attempt failed and the helicopter withdrew.

The IDF claims that a Hezbollah rocket flying towards Israeli positions in southern Lebanon was intercepted a short time ago.

Meanwhile, Israeli channel 12 reports that a Hezbollah drone was intercepted over the Golan Heights, without sirens being activated.
