📍 FRONT-LINE UPDATE -🗺️ MAP LEGEND
Kharkiv Frontline Update
🎦 00:40-02:12⏩
- No changes in the northern Kharkiv front.
- Russian gains have stalled for the last four days.
- Claims that Russian aviation strikes (KAB-500s and guided bombs) have reduced by half, potentially due to Ukrainian HIMARS targeting Russian air defences.
- Footage shows destroyed Russian equipment.
- Russian military blogger, Anatoly Radov, confirms Ukrainian forces pushed back Russian troops inside Vovchansk and notes the arrival of the AFU 36th Marine Brigade.
- Radov claims Russian troops are being rotated.
- Ukrainians may be rotating troops or bringing in reserves.
- No changes to the three main maps for this area (DeepStateMap.live, @War_Mapper, and Rybar).
- This northern offensive has been unsuccessful for the Russians.
Sienkiewka-Novoselivka Frontline Update
🎦 02:12-03:08⏩
- Some activity east of Sienkiewka.
- Jonathan notes a discrepancy in the maps he uses but believes Andrew Perpetua's map now aligns with the other maps.
- A minor change on the Surret map in the treeline west of Krivoshevka, south of Novoselivka.
Northeastern Frontline Update
🎦 03:08-04:03⏩
- No changes on the northeastern axis, past Torska and Terny.
- Heavy fighting reported in Serebryansky Forest but no changes on the maps.
- No changes in Siversk or Chaviv Yar.
- Serebrenitsky map still shows Russians in control of the Kalinivka area, west of Bohdanivka.
- Jonathan believes this to be inaccurate as Ukrainian counter-attacks have likely pushed the Russians back but notes Serebrenitsky map is slow to update when there are Ukrainian advances.
Avdiivka Frontline Update
🎦 04:03-05:49⏩
- DeepStateMap.live shows a minor Ukrainian advance around Novoaleksandrivka in the Avdiivka sector.
- This is likely a map adjustment as it coincides with significant Russian gains in the area, confirmed by DeepStateMap.live and Andrew Perpetua's maps.
- Russians have taken control of the area around Arkhanhelske, west of Avdiivka.
- Russian gains also reported around Soloviove, extending past the lines on Syriac and Andri Perpetua's maps.
- DeepStateMap.live shows Russian control of an area north and south of a river/ravine near Soloviove.
- These are gains for the Russians but not significant.
- DeepStateMap.live shows Ukrainians pushed back slightly in Krasnohorivka, confirming a previous update from Surret map.
- No changes on the southern frontline or Dnipro front.
Analysis of Recent Frontline Changes
🎦 05:49-07:59⏩
- Overall a good day for the Ukrainians who haven't suffered significant losses.
- Some complaints that the focus on Kharkiv has allowed Russians to make gains in the east.
- Jonathan believes that this is an over-exaggeration, and the Russians are continuing their previous efforts.
- Russian advances in the east have actually slowed down.
- The scale of the Russian offensive is questionable given the limited gains.
- It is unclear if Russia has reserves for a larger offensive.
- Jonathan believes Ukraine would be aware of any large troop or equipment movements.
- The lack of significant Russian equipment in Kharkiv suggests they are either stockpiling for a larger offensive or lack equipment.
Wrap up
