📍 FRONT-LINE UPDATE -🗺️ MAP LEGEND

Is the Counter-Offensive Failing?

Some Western analysts and US officials claim Ukraine's counter-offensive is not going well and failing to break through Russian defensive lines. However, Jonathan believes it is going alright and Ukraine is adapting to the heavily mined and entrenched Russian defences by focusing on artillery attrition while probing in several places. The destruction of Wagner in Bakhmut and mutiny aftermath also puts Ukraine in an okay position.

Crimean Attacks

  • An S-400 air defence system was destroyed near Olenivka in Crimea, possibly by Ukrainian boats or from the mainland.
  • Three S-300 launchers also destroyed or damaged in Kherson, significantly weakening Russian air defences.
  • Ukrainian special forces landed at Cape Tarkhankut as part of an operation. The Russians admitted 10 saboteurs landed.
