Unconfirmed reports of air defence activity at the Syrian Army Kharab al-Jir Base (formerly U.S.-controlled).

In total, Russia 🇷🇺 damaged or destroyed 100 gas stations in and around Kharkiv 🇺🇦 this year.

Some key roads have no more working gas stations like Kharkiv-Sumy or Kharkiv-Poltava. Those are only geolocated strikes, I added many missing ones thanks to @ShahedTracker.

One of the admins of the Russian channel "From Mariupol to the Carpathians" was likely killed by a Ukrainian strike today, as indicated by a series of posts in their channel and a memorial video.

This channel, affiliated with drone operators in Kherson Oblast, is well known for posting videos of Russian FPV drones harassing and killing Ukrainian civilians in and around Kherson, and openly advocated for levelling the city to the ground.

(Note: Most of the reactions on this post were botted by Ukrainians).

Circulating claims of explosions on Qeshm Island or in southern Iran are false.

There may, however, have been anti-ship cruise missile launches from Sirik (southeastern Iran) towards the Strait of Hormuz.

Remains unconfirmed for now.

A little over an hour ago, multiple U.S. B1B strategic bombers took off from Fairford Airbase in the UK.

It is not known if this is a combat-related mission. It would take approximately 4 hours to make such a flight.

UPDATE: They are conducting a training mission.

If any U.S. operation against Iran occurs today, it will happen in the next hour.

The sun will be up in 2 hours.

CNN reports that Trump's meeting at Camp David is related to reviewing and deliberating strike options on Ansarallah in Yemen.

The security alerts issued by several U.S. embassies in Middle East countries were reportedly due to the risk of Ansarallah retaliatory attacks.

Due to the recent Ukrainian counteroffensive north of Lyman, the city of Svyatohirsk has gone from being a partially-contested city to being over 20 km from the nearest Russian-controlled territory.

This puts the city out of range of most barrel artillery, and puts it more than 2-times further from Russian-controlled territory than Slovyansk and Kramatorsk.

This is a very positive development for Ukrainian forces in Lyman, as previously, supply into Lyman could only be conducted either across pontoon bridges over the Siverskyi Donets River (all the ordinary bridges there are destroyed), or with UAVs. Now, the city can be supplied through Svyatohirsk as a rear logistical hub, as well as via roads leading from Kharkiv Oblast.

So, not only has this counteroffensive significantly alleviated pressure on Slovyansk to the south and Borova to the north, but it has also made the defence of Lyman much easier. As with all counteroffensives, it has a major PR element to it, but this one has real operational-level importance - more-so than the counterattacks in other parts of the frontline.

Honestly, Hegseth is probably right.

In my opinion, it's likely more than 23. It's very easy to hide casualties... "Suicide", "road incident", "operational accident", etc.

They're getting ready.

Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin claims that over 1,600 Ukrainian drones involved in the massive attack on Moscow were shot down down by Russian air defence, including 450 on approach to Moscow.

At least 2 civilians were killed and 6 others injured in the massive Ukrainian drone and missile attack on Moscow Oblast.
