🧵 Frontline Sentinel – Northern Sumy axis,Sumy Oblast 11/07/2026 🇷🇺Russian advances: Russian forces have achieved a breakthrough on the northern Sumy axis, advancing around Khotin, Pysarivka, Nova Sich, and Ivolzhanske. These gains have brought Russian positions to within approximately 10 miles (16 km) of Sumy city. Russian troops have also reached the extensive forest belts north of the city, providing significantly greater concealment than the open terrain that has characterized much of the front over the past year and a half. The advance also improves access to more viable logistics routes while offering increased cover as Russian forces continue expanding operations toward Sumy. 📍Mapped Territorial Changes: Neutral mapping project “Suriyak map” has acknowledged Russian offensive operations and breakthroughs within the region, geolocated footage released by Russian and Ukrainian forces showcasing Russian assaults being engaged by drones within the open fields north of Khotin also highlighted Russian advances in the surrounding settlements of the region. 📚Open-Source Information: geolocated footage released by pro Russian telegram channels shows Russian infantry moving throughout forested terrain, entering the settlement of Mala Korchakivka, Nova Sich and Ivolzhanske where they continue to push the forested surrounding to consolidate their forces and create greater pressure on Sumy city. Ukrainian drone footage also confirmed Russian advances within Nova Sich, but this is likely still grey zone. 🎯Strategic Value: Russian forces continue expanding their zone of control on the northern and northwestern approaches to Sumy as part of efforts to establish a deeper buffer zone along the internationally recognized Russia–Ukraine border. Russian positions are now approximately 10 miles (16 km) from Sumy city, placing it within increasingly effective range of FPV drone operations, which have already been used to strike targets in and around the city. Continued advances also increase the threat of artillery and mortar fire reaching northern districts of Sumy, further raising pressure on the city’s security situation.

🚨🇺🇦🇷🇺NEW: Russian forces are increasing their FPV drone usage within the Kharkiv region. Within the last 5 days, 27 confirmed sightings of FPVs were reported within and around the city by monitoring channels. This is not the full number used against Kharkiv city a day, but just those that are visually seen before striking a target. It’s estimated that Russian’s are flying between 8-12 FPV drones per day in the Kharkiv city region.

🧵 Frontline Sentinel – Kostyantynivka, Donetsk Oblast 4/07/2026: 🇷🇺🇺🇦Russian and Ukrainian advances: Over the last two weeks, Russian forces continued their offensive operations in Kostyantynivka and have come close to establishing full control over the city. Ukrainian forces completed their withdrawal from the western part of the city, allowing Russian forces to capture the remaining high-rise blocks as well as the adjacent inner industrial zone. Additionally, the majority of Ukrainian formations have now withdrawn from the eastern suburbs, with the remaining scattered groups now effectively encircled. Russian forces have seemingly turned their attention to the northern part of the city, where they have gained two large footholds on both sides of the Kryvyi Torets River. Elsewhere, fierce fighting continues for the western part of Chasiv Yar and the villages of Dovha Balka and Stepanivka. 📍Mapped territorial changes: Russian forces have made significant progress in recent weeks, with both neutral and Pro-Russian mappers reporting this. A large number of geolocations as well as satellite imagery showing Russian shelling shifting northwest also supports this. Neutral source Suriyakmaps reports that the Ukrainian pocket in the eastern part of Kostyantynivka has been cleared, while the Russian Ministry of Defence claims that the city has been fully captured. Ukrainian sources are mapping significantly behind on this part of the frontline, with Deepstate yet to acknowledge any major consolidation within Kostyantynivka, despite all available evidence. 📚Open-source information: Recent geolocated footage shows Russian forces raising flags in multiple parts of Kostyantynivka, including the northern part of the city. While this doesn’t confirm consolidation, it does indicate that Russian infiltrations are continuing to trend northwest as they attempt to complete the capture of the city and begin storming the neighbouring town of Oleksijevo-Druzhkivka. Additionally, Sentinel-2 satellite imagery shows that Russian forces shelled the eastern part of the city in recent weeks, confirming that at least up until recently, there were some isolated groups of Ukrainian soldiers still operating there. The heaviest shelling has now shifted to Oleksijevo-Druzhkivka and the surrounding areas. 🎯Strategic value: Kostyantynivka is a very strategically important city as it constitutes the first city of the so-called “fortress belt” – the last major urban agglomeration under Ukrainian control in Donbas. Once Russian forces capture Kostyantynivka, there is little in the way of them storming Oleksijevo-Druzhkivka and then Druzhkivka as the near-continuous stretch of urban areas provide a lot of much-needed cover for deep Russian infiltrations to take place. The fall of the city also risks Ukrainian strongholds in western Chasiv Yar and nearby villages, as well as the fields west of Kostyantynivka.

🧵Frontline Sentinel – Kozacha Lopan, Kharkiv Oblast 25/06/2026: 🇷🇺Russian advances: Over the last week, Russian forces significantly intensified their assault operations and artillery attacks against the northern border town of Kozacha Lopan, Kharkiv oblast, additionally launching infiltration attacks, which have allowed Russian forces to take control over some of the localized streets positioned near the town centre, however it is not currently known how successful these attacks have been, for now only positional battles within the town have been confirmed. Russia’s main advance is currently stemming from the international border of Russia and Ukraine, pushing south under artillery and drone cover and consolidating positions within the nearby treelines where they go on to launch probing attacks against Kozacha Lopan and other nearby border settlements. 📍Mapped territorial changes: Neutral mapping project “SuriyakMap” has acknowledged Russian advancements within the town but has also reported that these are Russian probing attacks launched by Russian SSO elements from the Belgorod region. Suriyak has stated that no consolidation is currently underway within the town, but this could change at any moment as Russia rapidly increases the temp of their attacks against Kharkiv’s northern border. Neutral mapping project “WeebUnion” has also reported on Russian advances within the direction of Kozacha Lopan but has not yet included Russian infiltration attempts into the territory. Overall, most neutral mapping projects are reporting on Russian advances towards and within the town of Kozacha Lopan, Kharkiv Oblast. 📑HUMINT information: We spoke with a local salesman who works within the proximity of Kozacha Lopan: “I think they’re (Russian’s) already working within Kozacha, 100% because on my work trips to Zolochiv I spoke with the local police commander and he said Zolochiv is now evacuating as many residents as it can, due to the threat of Russian incursions into the surrounding settlements and he told me Russia is now working in the direction of Kozacha Lopan, because they want to try and make conditions harder for Zolochiv and the Kharkiv region. I can say its very dangerous now in these areas, drone attacks are more and more common everyday and now we have the threat of Russian infantries and Special Forces setting up ambushes and taking these settlements close to the border with Russia. 🎯Strategic value: Russian forces are looking to capture the border town of Kozacha Lopan to further expand their security buffer zone along the international border of the Russian Federation and Ukraine, as well as to increase pressure on the entire northern Kharkiv region, especially in the Zolochiv direction. Attacking this direction helps Russia to force Ukrainian reserves to another direction, leaving areas such as the Donbas and Zaporizhzhia more weakly defended, ultimately assisting Russia in their main effort operations.

WEEKLY STRIKE TRACK REPORT 🗓️June 15th – June 21st, 2026 🇷🇺Russian Attacks on Ukraine: 🛩️Drone strikes • 1,395 UAVs (Geran-2, Geran-3, Gebera, and other types) launched from Shatalovo, Navlya, Khalino, Tsumbulova, Millerovo, Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Cape Chauda, Hvardiiske, Donetsk Airport. • 1,276 Neutralised.

Russian Logistic Update: New footage released on 21st of June appears to show a Russian fuel truck engulfed in flames following a Ukrainian drone strike on the Rostov–Mariupol Highway (E58). The route has become an increasingly important target as Ukraine continues to intensify its long-range drone campaign against the southern logistics corridor linking the Russian Federation with occupied Crimea. Russian logistics across the region are facing growing pressure, with drone strikes forcing commanders to adapt in increasingly creative ways. One notable example comes from occupied Crimea, where fuel trucks have reportedly been disguised as logging trucks in an attempt to avoid detection and targeting by Ukrainian drones. This was exposed by civilians within Crimea who filmed trucks and uploaded the locations on Telegram. The need to camouflage essential logistics vehicles highlights the persistent threat posed by Ukrainian strike capabilities and the ongoing challenges Russia faces in sustaining its supply network along this critical axis. On top Ukrainian drone strikes are also targeting key bridges north of Crimea, particularly in the Kherson region for example, bridges along the E105 near Chonhar. These strikes are delaying and disrupting Russian supply lines, adding another layer of strain to their logistics efforts as Ukraine attempt to isolate Crimea from logistics.

🧵 Frontline Sentinel – Kostyantynivka, Donetsk Oblast 19/06/2026: 🇷🇺🇺🇦Russian and Ukrainian advances: Over the last three weeks, Russian forces significantly intensified their assault operations and have achieved a tactical breakthrough in the Kostyantynivka direction, capturing more than 50% of the city. With Ukraine’s logistical situation further deteriorating, resulting in a lack FPV drones available for strike and reconnaissance operations, Russian forces were able to break into the city from the west and east, occupying large parts of the suburbs, before initiating deep infiltrations into the inner factory district and northwestern suburbs. This prompted a near-full Ukrainian withdrawal from the western suburbs and resulted in an operational encirclement of Ukrainian formations in the eastern suburbs. 📍Mapped territorial changes: Russian forces have made significant advances in recent weeks, as confirmed by neutral and Pro-Russian mapping resources, as well as geolocations and satellite imagery. Neutral source Suriyak reports that Russian forces control almost all of the western suburbs and that Ukrainian forces initiated a withdrawal from the eastern part of the city due to the threat of encirclement. Russian sources, such as Divgen, claim that the remaining Ukrainian formations in the eastern districts have been physically encircled. Ukrainian sources such as Deepstate report that the situation unfolding is the “worst-case scenario”, highlighting the deep Russian infiltrations towards the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka Highway. 📚Open-source information: Recent geolocated footage shows Russian forces raising dozens of flags in the western high-rise districts of Kostyantynivka and the so-called historical centre of northeastern Kostyantynivka, confirming recent reports of deep infiltrations and advances into the city. A lack of geolocations of Russian presence in the eastern suburbs backs up reports by neutral and Pro-Russian sources of an operational encirclement of Ukrainian formations there. Sentinel-2 satellite imagery shows a continued shift of artillery shelling and KAB glide-bomb strikes away from the western and southern parts of Kostyantynivka towards the northern and northwestern districts, supporting reports of Russian movements towards its western entrance. 🎯Strategic value: Kostyantynivka is a very important city, as it is the first settlement of the so-called “fortress belt” of cities that make up the last major urban agglomeration of Ukrainian-controlled Donbas. Russian control over Kostyantynivka and the nearby strongholds at Chasiv Yar and Mykolaipillya would lay the groundworks for a large push to the next city of Druzhkivka, threatening Kramatorsk from the south. It would also support Russian offensive operations towards Dobropillya and Bilozerke.

Wikipedia lists the 2026 Iran War as an Iranian victory.

BREAKING: A U.S. Air Force B-52 bomber crashed shortly after taking off from Edwards Airfield at 11:20 a.m.

BREAKING: Trump: The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete. Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!

BREAKING: Trump: The United States will be hitting Iran (Whose Navy, Air Force, Radar, Anti Aircraft, and all other forms of Defense, together with most its offensive capability, are GONE!), VERY HARD TONIGHT. At some point in the not too distant future, we will be taking Kharg Island, and other oil infrastructure points, and assume total control of their Oil and Gas Markets, much like we have with Venezuela, which is working out brilliantly for both Venezuela and the United States of America. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

BREAKING: Trump: I have just been informed by our Great Military that last night the Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache Helicopters while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz. There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured. Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

🧵 Frontline Sentinel – Komar, Donetsk Oblast 05/06/2026: 🇷🇺🇺🇦Russian and Ukrainian advances: Since mid-April, Ukrainian forces have been carrying out a coordinated series of counterattacks in the Komar direction, aimed at re-establishing a solid bridgehead east of the Vovcha River and pushing the Russians back beyond the Mokri Yaly River. As a result, following earlier infiltrations of small assault groups and DRGs into the Piddubne and Zelenyi Hai area, Ukrainian forces were able to expand their previously small bridgehead through the fields east of Andriivka-Klevstove. As a result, Zelenyi Hai, Tolstoi, Hrushkivka, Zirka, Novokhatske, and part of Piddubne are now in the grey-zone. On the other hand, Russian forces continued their assault operations to the south, bypassing the villages of Oleksandrohrad and Voskresenka from the north, and infiltrating up to the Vovcha River. 📍Mapped territorial changes: Russian and Ukrainian sources greatly disagree on the layout of the frontline. Most Russian sources have not acknowledged these Ukrainian advances, which is in part due to an apparent Ukrainian OPSEC operation surrounding recent advances in this area. Russian channel Anatolyi Radov confirms Ukrainian infiltrations down the highway from Andriivka-Klevstove into Piddubne, stating that some Ukrainian forces managed to entrench in the northern part of the latter settlement. Ukrainian channel Deepstate also confirmed some of the Ukrainian advances, claiming that Ukrainian forces recaptured Novoselivka and made progress in the Andriivka-Klevtsove area, while acknowledging infiltrations towards the Mokri Yaly River. Neutral source Suriyak Maps reported Ukrainian infiltrations reaching as far as the village of Zirka, which is situated east of the Mokri Yaly River. 📚Open-source information: Recent geolocated footage shows Russian forces striking a Ukrainian position in the western part of Tolstoi, visually confirming previous reports of Ukrainian infiltrations in this area. Additional geolocated footage shows Ukrainian artillery shelling of Russian positions in the Zirka area, lining up with Sentinel-2 satellite imagery showing Ukrainian artillery and MLRS preparation on various parts of the frontline ahead of assault operations. 🎯Strategic value: This section of the frontline holds importance due to its position behind the Vovcha River. Russia failing to fully secure it in their 2025 offensive has threatened the right flank of their thrust west towards Pokrovs’ke and Ternuvate, as well as their assault operations in the Novopavlivka-Ivanivka area. Already, these Ukrainian advances have resulted in Russian forces withdrawing from their positions west of Ivanivka, allowing Ukrainian forces to entrench in the western part of the village. Additional advances could risk a full Russian withdrawal from the settlement, threatening their position around Novopavlivka.
