SUMMARY

Ukrainian forces are actively counterattacking near Pokrovsk, while Russian troops have made limited territorial gains in the Donetsk region, particularly around Hryshyne and Myrne. A major Russian drone attack involving 117 drones targeted various locations in Ukraine, leading to civilian casualties and damage to infrastructure, including a three-story building in Sumi.

Ukrainian drones successfully struck a petrochemical plant in Russia's Samara region, causing a fire but no casualties, underscoring ongoing cross-border military operations. Ukrainian forces executed a precise strike with a modernized MIG-29 fighter jet, destroying a significant Russian command post and showcasing advanced military capabilities.

The situation in Dobropilya reflects extensive destruction from Russian airstrikes, highlighting the ongoing intensity of the conflict and its impact on civilian areas. Border guards continued to strike the Russian rear, making the border regions incredibly difficult for Russian occupiers.

Ukrainian fighters from the Steel Border Assault Guard carried out a series of brilliant strike and reconnaissance operations. Using modern unmanned aerial systems and FPV drones, the border guards delivered tactical strikes on Russian forces simultaneously on two fronts.

In just a few moves, the operators took out a range of targets from hidden technological traps, heavy artillery, and ground robots belonging to the Russian Army. The effectiveness of these operations demonstrates the impact of modern drone technology in combat.
