Range has increased, it was geolocated, it was at least 30km deep from the russian line ...

Range has increased to 40km for the Lancet-3. However the -3 still has the short wings and doesn't account for the long and longer wingspan Lancets we have seen in many videos. I believe the long wingspan ones either to the -3M or -5, and would have even greater range that they are able to strike at search radars and S-300 systems well behind the front. The older S-300 systems have a range at least 90km. We have also seen Buk systems being hit, and these have a range of about 40 to 50km. The Russians maybe keeping the true range of the Lancet and has yet to formally reveal the -3M or -5 versions and their ranges, all as part of opsec.

Found this War Gonzo video today, I thought it's enlightening:
Fighters from the detachment of the PMCS "Wagner" are working on Ukrainian positions, delivering accurate strikes.
Ukrainians are trying to bring personnel and equipment to Bakhmut by fields, but Wagner is kept under fire control and similar supply routes.
Even now AFU continues to reinforce Bakhmut. With the supply situation such as it is though situation must be difficult.

A group of four Ukrainian vehicles were spotted by Russian Airborne in this forest, Kremennaya front. TOS-1A was used on them and all four vehicles went up in flames.


Tank destroyer Shturm-S fired it's missile at a Ukrainian fortification that may have ammo stores, resulting in a hit and explosion.



UR-77 in action again, also at Kremennaya. This time it fired it's charges directly at a Ukrainian position that has some stores of ammunition.



FPV drone crashed on this Russian T-72. No harm was done.

No harm is a bit too far... but the tank front is quite protected. Probably lost era blocks, it look like the front of the left squirt got tossed away. That tank will need repairs for sure but still mission capable. Nice to see the angle of the strike and warhead. A lighter armored IFV or self-propelled artillery could have been disabled big time.

The amount of damaged provoked by all this FPV pest is making mountains of repairs needing to be done behind the front lines.

Any recent movements on the frontlines besides occasional military operation videos?
There hasn't been much update over the Orthodox Easter but now that update is happening again we see Wagner took another bite out of Bakhmut:
Ft7qjZBWIBsYU6c

Train station in Russian hand, from north direction Russians are well across the railway.

One successful AFU counterattack around from Chasiv Yar direction towards the furthest points and they pushed the Russians back a bit.

There were apparently two proving attack by AFU around Vuhledar but they were beaten back.

There are now reports that glide bombs and other PGM bombs are being used at Bakhmut, as many as 20 bombs each day are used across the entire front.


Lancet from obtf Kaskad takes out a Buk M1 of the AFU.
