I agree with @Thorkill65's assessment that there are likely around 50 Russian soldiers in Dobropillya right now. At least a couple hundred Ukrainian soldiers are probably also present.
The bulk of them are concentrated in the southwestern and southeastern parts of the city, while a few other small groups are in the northeastern streets closer to Hannivka.
These large-scale infiltrations into Dobropillya means the Ukrainian strongpoints south of the city are at risk of being cut off, with supply into these areas already very difficult. There have also been a larger number of infiltrations into the fields southwest of Dobropillya, reaching the main highway resupplying Ukraine's garrison there. A large grey-zone has formed there, where Russian soldiers are attempting to accumulate to begin an encircling and absorbing maneuver on the city.
Furthermore, these infiltrations force Ukrainian drone operators out of their positions in Dobropillya, disrupting Ukraine's FPV drone strikes on Russian logistics and assault operations, allowing further Russian advances and deep infiltrations to be made.

Russia carried out another ballistic missile attack on Kyiv last night, using at least 14 Iskander-M and RM-48U modified S-400 ballistic missiles.
Strikes were carried out on the CHP-4 Combined Heat and Power Plant, as well as unknown targets in the western suburbs of Kyiv and near the city of Irpin. At least 8 of the 14 missiles used were RM-48U S-400s.

Footage showing the impact of 8 Russian RM-48U modified S-400 ballistic missiles in eastern Kyiv.
These missiles were seemingly all targeting the same location (CHP-4 power plant). This video highlights how low their accuracy is, with the strikes being very spread out.
Only two of the missiles actually managed to hit the power plant, while the rest fell in the surrounding areas. Two of the impacts are only heard, and not visible in this clip.

Russian Su-34s are attacking the southern outskirts of Zaporizhzhia City with KAB glide-bombs.
At least 5 strikes have been carried out so far on the Balabyne-Kushuhum area, including two which were likely KAB-1500s (the other 3 were probably KAB-500s). Ukrainian air defence attempted to shoot down the remaining three but failed.

โ๏ธInformation from the ground.
Russian DRG (sabotage and reconnaissance) groups have been reported in the villages of Kushuhum and Balabyne, right on the outskirts of Zaporizhzhia City.
They are equipped with AK-12 rifles and are fluent in Ukrainian, attempting to blend in with the civilian population and the military. There is a risk of repeated DRG infiltrations into this area. It is unknown how many are currently there, but their number is likely small.
Presumably, they moved up the near-unbroken chain of settlements from Prymorske to Malokaterynivka and Kushuhum, using the residential areas as cover from Ukrainian drones, while trying to avoid detection from soldiers operating in the area.
Alerts have already been sent out to Ukrainian units operating in this direction.

The Washington Post reports that Ukraine is down to their last couple of Patriot PAC-3 interceptor missiles. Ukraine reportedly had around 10 on October 7, and used most of these during the most recent Russian large-scale missile attack on Kyiv.
It seems this report by the Washington Post was correct.
Not a single Patriot interceptor missile was launched by Ukraine during tonight's Russian missile attack on Kyiv.

Russia continued their large-scale attacks on western Ukraine using Geran-4/5 jet-drones last night, primarily targeting Rivne Oblast.
Explosions were heard in the cities of Lutsk, Manevychi, and Kovel (Volyn Oblast); Dubno, Zdolbuniv and Rivne (Rivne Oblast); Mohyliv-Podil's'kyi (Vinnytsia Oblast); as well as Yarmolyntsi and Shepetivka (Khmelnytskyi Oblast).
Targets hit include the 330 kV electrical substation in the city of Kovel, an oil depot in the city of Shepetivka, and railway infrastructure elsewhere. However, the main target appears to have once again been Rivne, where large fires broke out following several strikes on the city.
