Should be somewhere in Bogdanivka. This is also where the 98th VDV Division and the 200th Brigade of the North Fleet are currently operating. Special forces of the Seversk-V unit gets to track down the nest of Ukrainian UAV operators and had it struck precisely.

Some sort of breakthrough have occurred at Avdiivka, frontally at the town too instead of from either flank. Ukrainian sources are claiming several explanations:

• bad weather in recent days caused reduce drone coverage of the front and Russians managed to sneak through a weak area of the front ("just walked in" according to some)
• Russians discovered a pipe 80cm in diameter and 2km long that went under the frontline, they successfully sent through an detachment of 150 and went behind the defenders and then expanded out further
• 110th Mechanized Brigade is holding this direction by themselves with density of troops in Avdiivka quite low, a large amount of manpower is actually on the flanks of Avdiivka preventing encirclement and not inside the town itself. Because of this 110th are spread too think and Russians could punch through their line with numbers

Whatever the reason may be this breakthrough is endangering the anti-aircraft missile regiment base near the T-05-05 road. Conflicting reports from various TG groups are saying Ukrainians are withdrawing from this position and some even say Russians have already captured it. But Rybar isn't confirming that just yet.

Yeah, get done with Avdeevka quickly and give the people of Donetsk city their well earned rest.

There was another wave of airstrike over Ukraine today, 12 Tu-95 and other aircrafts involved.

Yeah and how many times we heard Russians are running out of missiles now ?

Also regarding the Kh-101 with countermeasure, apparently the missile does that in time sequence, it doesnt have RHAWS/RWR to warn for attack. Also it seems to only does that at last leg of its trajectory, this indicates that the countermeasures are directed toward Manpads and SPAAG air defense like Gepard.

Bradley crew interview. The highlight for me was the crew admitting that he simulates training by playing video games.



The Honorable Papa Tsar, Vladimir Putin:

I have just learned from intelligence that there are heinous traitors in Mother Russia!

They are providing virtual environment training to the Ukrainian Armed Forces to destroy our armored units.

The coordinates of the traitors have been marked. Please authorize the use of Kinzhal to behead the traitors.
