KAB launches from a Russian Su-34 towards Novorais'k, Kherson Oblast.

Explosions in Novoraisk, Kherson Oblast. The KAB glide-bombs impacted outside the town. A second Su-34 has launched additional KABs in the same direction.

Smoke is seen rising after one of the earlier Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile strikes on Mayaky, Odesa Oblast.

Russia has begun preparations for their next large-scale, combined missile and drone attack on Ukraine.

Strategic aviation is being redeployed to Engels-2 Airbase (Saratov Oblast) to be equipped with Kh-101 cruise missiles. Currently, there are at least 3 Tu-95MS and 1 Tu-160M that are either already equipped or are being equipped with missiles.

Additionally, accumulation of Geran-2 and Gerbera drones is ongoing at most major launch sites surrounding Ukraine.

In my opinion, the attack will take place early next week. It would presumably contain Iskander-M ballistic missiles and Iskander-K cruise missiles, and could also contain Kinzhal hypersonic aeroballistic missiles and Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles.

Ukrainian Su-24s might have launched Storm Shadow cruise missiles from eastern Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, towards Rostov Oblast.

A few minutes ago, Russian S-300/400 air defence was operating from near Yeysk, Krasnodar Krai. It is currently unclear if this was related to missiles or not.

Sirens are sounding in Rostov Oblast due to the threat of Storm Shadow cruise missiles.

Ukraine and Russia have carried out the next stage of the 1,000 for 1,000 prisoner of war exchange deal, with another 185 Ukrainian POWs being exchanged for another 185 Russian POWs a short time ago.

CENTCOM claims that U.S. forces intercepted 6 out of 7 Iranian ballistic missiles launched towards Bahrain, and Kuwait, while the 7th "did not reach its intended target". They also claimed to have shot down 4 Iranian attack drones.

They denied reports of damage to the U.S. 5th Fleet HQ in Manama, Bahrain and claimed that there are no reports of injured/killed U.S. personnel.

After the previous attacks Iran carried out, CENTCOM was caught lying multiple times about "shooting down all the missiles" after satellite imagery exposed damage to their bases in Kuwait.

Additionally, CENTCOM stated that in response to these Iranian attacks, the U.S. carried out airstrikes on Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites on Qeshm Island and in southern Iran.

The situation for Ukraine in Kostyantynivka is deteriorating day by day.

Russian soldiers began carrying out evacuations of Ukrainian civilians from the city centre (red marker) a few days ago, indicating a strong presence in the northern part of the city.

This, coupled with the Ukrainian airstrikes on the western suburbs, suggests that Ukraine might have initiated a withdrawal from most of the city.

Keep in mind, the area where Russia is carrying out evacuations is 600 metres outside of even the nearest grey-zone on Deepstate's map. It's likely that a lot of maps don't show how dire the situation there is right now.

Kostyantynivka - Druzhkivka Highway:

During the days of Bakhmut and Avdiivka, these last logistical routes were called "roads of life".

With today's drone war, it's the "Road of Death".

I don't usually post FPV drone footage from the frontline as I don't think it's irrelevant, and I think its disrespectful to all those being killed, but this is important because of the scale in which drones are being utilised in the Kostyantynivka direction.

There has been a Russian FPV drone kill-zone set up on the road just outside Kostyantynivka for several months now, and even at the beginning of the year, around 50% of vehicles driving into the city would be hit. You can only imagine how much worse it's got for Ukraine now.
