My prediction for the southern flank of Pokrovsk:

I believe that the Russians will utilise the railway line (again), and the nearby chain of settlements to seize the key town of Shevchenko. This will be useful for them as it will strengthen the southern flank of Pokrovsk and can be used as a forward troop deployment point.

It will additionally allow Russia to get behind the strong Ukrainian positions in Lysivka and Sukhyi Yar, which they have been trying to take for a long time. It will also cut one of the main supply roads into Pokrovsk and will put them close to another highway.

This was all because Selydove was captured. As I and others previously mentioned, the fall of Selydove would be a major defeat for Ukraine, as the lack of defences to the west of the city means that Russia can move with much more ease. The lack of defensive fortifications also makes it more difficult for Ukraine to stage flanking counterattacks, meaning that longer and what would usually be more risky spearheads can now be safely created by Russia.

It looks like we might get at least a temporary ceasefire in Lebanon within the next 48 hours.

A Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile was launched from Crimea in the direction of Odesa.

A second Iskander-M was launched in the direction of Odesa.

Explosions in Odesa Oblast.

The explosions were in the town of Tuzly. Two Orlan-10 reconnaissance UAVs were over the settlement, but have left for the town of Lebedivka.

Scenes from central Beirut. Whatever was targeted is now gone.

The airspace over the Kasputyn Yar launch site in Astrakhan Oblast has been temporarily closed until November 30th.

There is a threat of IRBM launches during this time.
