The Russians are breaking through in the Novopavlivka direction. Their bridgehead over the Vovcha River has rapidly expanded, forcing many Ukrainian formations to withdraw from their heavily fortified positions to prevent being encircled.

Depending how this develops, we could see Novopavlivka begin to be enveloped from the west, and the whole front west of Pokrovsk shift north/northwest towards the important logistical hub of Mezhova.

Keep an eye on this West Donetsk / East Dnipropetrovsk sector, especially once Pokrovsk and Myrnohrad fall. It could play out something like this map shows.

Apparently 6 soldiers is now a mass surrender lmao.

Also, for those who for some stupid reason only look at Deepstate's maps, Kucheriv Yar was never encircled, but rather stormed from the northeast.

The victory threshold for Ukraine continues to get lower and lower...

Russian forces have re-established control over Sichneve, Pokrovsk'e direction, Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Pre-war population: ~160.
Total land area: ~0.75km².

I present to you, the "Monster Tank":

It recently took part in a Russian mechanised assault in the Siversk direction, and tanked more than 25 FPV drone hits before finally being disabled. The surviving infantry are now trying to consolidate in the treelines.

This video should also give a good idea of the sheer density of FPV drones on the battlefield, especially in places like Siversk where the Ukrainians have very strong defences. There are drones literally everywhere, and all movement within 10km of the frontline is instantly spotted.

Russian KAB glide-bombs are once again striking the bridge to Korobelnyi Island in an attempt to destroy it. So far it remains standing.

Also, on a sidenote, the claims of Russian soldiers landing and consolidating on the island are completely false. Don't fall for it.

In the Orikhiv direction, Russian forces are advancing through Mala Tokmachka, attempting to take full control over the village.

Following the earlier mechanised assaults, Russian soldiers were able to scatter throughout the eastern and central parts of the village and begin pushing west. So far, they have been able to consolidate in additional parts of the eastern streets, but infiltrations have occurred 2.3 km west of that. Large amounts of soldiers from at least three different regiments have accumulated here, and are attempting to push further.

+ ~1.51 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Hulyaipole direction, Russian forces continued to advance west of the Yanchur River, further expanding their bridgehead in two different areas.

Most of the progress was made in the south, where Russian forces continued pushing west along the Malynivka - Hulyaipole Road. With heavy fighting, they were able to capture a 2.3 km-long stretch of it and begin advancing further towards the villages of Vesele and Zelenyi Hai. At the same time, other forces cleared the northern and southern banks of the small reservoir and pushed northwest up to the road. Additionally, the Russians captured new positions along four parallel treelines north of the road, on the tactical heights.

In the north, Russian forces continued to advance further west from the northern part of Poltavka. Here, they captured additional positions along two separate treelines in the low-lying ground and began attacks towards the small reservoir further west.

+ ~5.30 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Hulyaipole and Pokrovsk'e directions, Russian forces continued to advance east of the Yanchur River, making new progress in three different areas.

In the north, after breaking through to Pryvillya, Russian forces began securing their northern flank. Under heavy artillery and drone cover, they began advancing on the village of Vyshneve from two directions and captured a gulley and the section of road between Vyshneve and Verbove. For the past ten days, Vyshneve has been under intense FAB, artillery, and MLRS bombardment.

Further south, Russian forces continued securing the southern flank of their breakthrough to Pryvillya. Here, they were able to last section of the tactical heights, and advanced into the treelines in the low-lying ground northeast of Krasnohirske. They also continued pushing west of Novohryhorivka, capturing additional forest plantations west of the reservoir.

In the south, Russian forces were able to enter Pavlivka, which was largely abandoned by the Ukrainians in favour of safer positions south of the Yanchur River. The Russians were able to consolidate control over the whole village and captured new positions in the treelines to the southeast.

+ ~12.22 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Novopavlivka and Prosyana directions, Russian forces continued to advance, making significant progress north of the Vovcha River.

In the west, Russian forces rapidly expanded their bridgehead over the Vovcha River in Ivanivka, reaching the centre of the village. Other forces crossed the river further west, entrenching and accumulating infantry in a forest, before advancing into the western part of Ivanivka. From there, they infiltrated the forest further west in the direction of Havrylivka.

Russian forces then bypassed the rest of the village, and advanced uphill to the north, capturing new treeline positions and consolidating in a forested gulley. They also pushed into the forest north of Ivanivka, and advanced up the treeline, reaching the rear of Novopavlivka. Other forces were able to capture the forest plantations on the tactical heights northeast of Ivanivka.

To the east, Russian forces continued their assault operations towards Novopavlivka from the south. They were able to gain a foothold in the next forest northwest of Filiya, while other forces crossed the Solena River, breaking through Ukraine's main layered defence line here by establishing control over positions in the forest.

To the southeast, Russian forces continued clearing the Donetsk - Dnipropetrovsk Regional Border area. They advanced further into Dnipropetrovsk from this direction and captured new positions in three separate treelines. Ukrainian forces are beginning their withdrawal from the salient north of Dachne to prevent being encircled.

To the northeast, Russian forces recaptured positions south of the reservoir (southeast of Kotlyarivka), and advanced along a treeline towards the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk border from the east.

+ ~22.35 km² in favour of Russia.

In the Pokrovsk direction, Russian forces continued to advance in Pokrovsk City, making new progress primarily south of the railway line.

In the west, following infiltrations over the railway line, Russian forces were able to consolidate in roughly 40% of the northwestern industrial zone and begin attacks further north/northwest. They also crossed the tracks a new point, capturing new positions in the eastern buildings of the industrial zone.

To the southeast, Russian forces consolidated further in the Pervomaika District, and secured positions in the city centre via Prokofieva and Zaliznychna Streets. It is from here that they operate at the railway station and surrounding areas.

In the southern part of Pokrovsk, Russian forces finally cleared the forests on the outskirts of the city, along with Yuvileynyy Park, and captured the rest of the Market District and southeastern part of the Pervomaika District.

In the southeastern part of Pokrovsk, the Russians advanced further north through the Sobachivka District, reaching the city centre via Samarska Street. They were also able to significantly expand their zone of control in the rest of the district and are approaching the eastern outskirts of the city.

To the southeast, Russian forces continued to advance in Novopavlivka. They secured the centre of the village and are now advancing through the northeastern houses.

+ ~4.23 km² in favour of Russia.
