"No doubts by the end of the time of them taking Krasnoyarsk, it will be nothing but rubble because that appears to be their form of liberation."

📍 FRONT-LINE UPDATE -🗺️ MAP LEGEND
Kharkiv Oblast Frontline
🎦 00:47-02:46⏩
Jonathan begins with the Kharkiv Oblast frontline, noting:
- No change in the western Lipsy area.
- In Vovchansk, both Andrew Perpetua and Suriat Maps suggest Ukrainian pushes have reclaimed some territory within the town, though Russians may hold more to the east.
- Discrepancies exist between Andrew Perpetua's and Suriat Maps' depictions of Russian control in the broader Vovchansk area. Jonathan highlights Suriat Maps had previously shown less Russian control than now depicted.
- Suriat Maps reports Ukrainian recapture of a significant area northeast of Vovchansk in the past three days.
Kupiansk-Svatove-Kremina Frontline
🎦 02:46-05:38⏩
Moving to the Kupiansk-Svatove-Kremina line, Jonathan observes:
- Possible Russian gains west of Svatove, in the Andreevka area near Kolomyrchika. Andrew Perpetua's map shows these as more substantial than Suriat Maps.
- No significant changes around Tursk, Terny, or the Terny forest.
- Continued, albeit slow, Russian attempts to push through the "canal micro district."
- In the wooded, elevated terrain south of Chasyv Yar, the Russians struggle to deploy mechanized forces effectively.
Russian Advances Near Pivnichne
🎦 05:38-06:51⏩
Jonathan expresses concern over Russian advances near Pivnichne:
- Russians have taken control of Shumy and are pushing eastward through fields towards the urban area of Pivnichne.
- Suriat Maps indicates Russians are now within Pivnichne itself, while other maps mark it as a grey zone.
- Jonathan highlights the speed of the Russian advance in this area, having taken considerable ground since May 30th.
Avdiivka Sector: Focal Point of Russian Offensives
🎦 06:51-09:45⏩
Jonathan focuses on the Avdiivka sector, where Russia is concentrating its efforts:
- Slow but steady Russian progress towards Vodiane, advancing through Novoaleksandrivka.
- Russians have captured most of Novoaleksandrivka, with their sights set on the T0504 highway.
- Further south, Russians make gains around Soledar and in the fields north of the town.
- Deep State Maps and Andrew Perpetua show further Russian advances south of Novobakhmutivka, less pronounced than Suriat Maps depicts. Jonathan speculates this might reflect a delayed update, reflecting an initial attack-repel cycle.
- Citing the Ukrainian Chief of Staff, Jonathan emphasizes that one-third of all Russian attacks are concentrated in the broader Pokrovsk sector, which encompasses Avdiivka. He underscores the significance of this, considering the active fighting along other parts of the frontline.
Krasnohorivka, Marinka, and Velyka Novosilka
🎦 09:45-11:27⏩
Jonathan provides updates on other areas within the Donetsk Oblast:
- In Krasnohorivka, Deep State Maps shows Russian gains east of the settlement, while Andriy Perpetua and Suriat Maps show them making inroads into the western part of town. Andriy Perpetua depicts a deeper Russian advance.
- Jonathan predicts Krasnohorivka will be left in ruins, based on the pattern of destruction observed in other captured settlements.
- No changes reported in Marinka or Novomykhailivka.
- Heavy fighting reported east of Vuhledar, with the Russians making significant gains in the area east of Vuhledar and south/west of Solodke. Jonathan notes this is worrying for the Ukrainians.
- No changes in Velyka Novosilka or Robotyne.
- While no positional changes are shown on the Dnipro River front, Jonathan notes the high number of boat losses on both sides suggests active fighting.
HIMARS Strikes and Russian Concerns
🎦 11:27-14:30⏩
Jonathan shifts to discuss Russian concerns about HIMARS:
- He shares a report from Russian sources expressing anxieties over increased HIMARS activity in Kherson and strikes into Crimea.
- The Russians are urging better aerial reconnaissance and quicker responses to neutralize HIMARS. They specifically mention Kherson as a launch point for strikes on Crimea, including those targeting Sevastopol.
- Jonathan speculates the Russians likely use "HIMARS" as a catch-all term for Ukrainian guided multiple rocket launcher systems, including the M270.
- He uses the range rings on the map tool to illustrate how different HIMARS munitions, with their varying ranges, could reach targets in Crimea, even potentially Kerch (though this would be risky due to proximity to the frontline).
Wrap Up
🎦 14:30-14:35⏩
Jonathan concludes the update, thanking viewers for their support and bidding them farewell.

🤖❓ AI Debrief (post task) - anything the AI didn't understand
There are a few instances where place names in the transcript seem off (e.g., "Krasnoyarsk" instead of "Krasnohorivka", "for a dosier" instead of "Feodosia") - I've corrected these based on context, but could you double-check?
Also, is "Suriat Maps" the correct name? It might be "Syrskyi Maps" or something similar.
🤖💭 AI Plan (pre task) - the AI's step by step thought process
This is a frontline update, which tend to be more straightforward in terms of topic breakdown than Jonathan's deeper analysis videos.
Steps:
Title, Date, Part: Straightforward extraction from the title.
Topic Titles: I'll need to identify the different frontline sectors Jonathan discusses. Remembering to be specific and quantify when possible (e.g., "Russian gains in X village" rather than just "Village X").
Timeframes: I'll go section by section, noting the timestamps.
Summaries: I'll summarise each section, highlighting key points, and including Jonathan's insights/analysis where provided.
Quote: I'll look for something impactful or insightful, as those are the most valuable to the "ATP Distilled" audience.
Queries: I'll make a note of anything that seems unclear or potentially erroneous in the transcript.
