Ukraine hit the locomotive depot in Ilovaysk, Donetsk region.
Ukraine hit the Debal'tsevo rail station, possibly targeting a locomotive.
Ukraine hit Melitopol'. Targets include the meat processing plant.
Ukraine hit Uglegorsk, Donetsk region. Targets were rail infrastructure.
Ukraine hit Donetsk. Targets include a truck parking area, burning down 22 trucks, and the Donetsk airport where despite Ukrainian strikes Russia has continued to launch drones from, and even expanded launch facilities.
Ukraine hit a 5-story apartment building in Gorlovka, collapsing a section of it. 3 civilians are reported killed.
Ukraine hit a market in Tokmak with a drone strike, injuring civilians. Reportedly 5 civilians were killed and 18 wounded. Warning graphic footage.
Ukraine hit a bus with civilians near Yenakievo, killing 7 and wounding 11.
Ukraine hit a passenger train from Lugansk to Lantratovka, no civilians were injured.
Ukraine attempted to hit Votkinsk with Flamingo cruise missiles but they were all brought down. Russian sources claim AEW was key to this success.
Allegedly some Ukrainian Flaminog missiles detonated during a failed launch from Odessa.
More footage of Russia's new Citadel AAA in action using programmable shells. Targets are being engaged at ranges from 800-1200m, with an average of 3 shells to take out a target. As many have pointed out, stationary AA positions become targets themselves, and of course the logical thing would be not to invent a whole new complex, but to modernize the Pantsyr with this capability. Instead a self-propelled version of the Citadel is under development.
Russia's new Zubr drone defense HMG station in action.
Russian Kalitka drone defense turret, and Zveroboy automated drone interceptor system in action. Zveroboy uses an interceptor drone with some sort of machine vision technology. The Kalitka reportedly averages 37 rounds per target.
Russian drone defense teams bringing down a Ukrainian inbound near the port of Kavkaz, Krasnodar region.
Russian drone defense teams in action.
Russian police in Moscow training for drone defense duties.
Russia continues to mount Pantsyr-SMD on rooftops in Moscow.
Boat based drone defense setup, somewhere in Russia.
A French Rafale brings down a Ukrainian drone over Latvia.
A new BARS Moscow is being formed for drone defense purposes, advertising one year contracts, that can be counted in place of conscript service in the regular military.
Interesting bits.
It appears Russia shot down a Ukrainian MiG-29 over Poltava. Russian jets regularly take long range potshots at Ukrainian jets, usually with no results. However there was always the likelihood of eventual success.
Russia has lost a Ka-52, context unclear.
There has been a pattern of Russian bomb accuracy going down in recent weeks. We've seen this before EW disrupting their guidance and Russia adjusting their guidance systems to overcome this. It remains to be seen if that's what will happen here.
Russian Mi-28NM have been spotted with self-defense EW suites, presumably for drone defense.

A video, one of many, but I think it's instructive. We have Ukrainian TCC personnel grabbing a person of the street. They use pepper spray on him, and then drag him into the van. By-standers then attack the TCC personnel, also using pepper spray and throw things at the vans damaging two of them. One of the TCC personnel fires his gun in their direction. Meanwhile multiple by-standers are filming and cheering on the attack. Irony of ironies, the loudest yelling complimenting the civilians on their efforts is in Russian. This is not a one-off incident, this is the reality of Ukraine's mobilization campaign. We have had many conversations about willingness to fight on the part of Ukraine, and about who can hold out in this war the longest. I think keeping this reality in mind is important to that discussion.
