Russian Missiles Hitting Their Own Land & UAF Making Major Gains - Ukraine war map In the Kursk direction, Russia is demolishing its own territory, which might help Ukraine by redirecting Russian missiles and bombs. Ukrainian forces have made significant progress, capturing Cherkaske Porychne and Rosiyske Porychne, advancing 6.5 kilometers, and moving closer to Komarivka. From the Belgorod direction, there’s a potential breakthrough as Ukrainian forces are now reported in Yazove, just 1.5 kilometers from the border. Despite Russian attempts to launch sabotage operations near Stotnytsky Kazachok, these efforts have been unsuccessful. In the Kharkiv direction, Ukrainian forces repelled Russian attempts to capture Hlyboke and break through to Lyptsi. In the Pokrovsk direction, Russian forces are conducting intense assaults, managing to recapture Zhuravlivka and Orlivka, bringing them closer to Myrnograd. In the Chasiv Yar direction, no new gains for the Russians, who are focusing on advancing in the Novyi and Zhovtnevyi microdistricts and Andriivka. In the Siversk direction, ongoing fighting around Bilohorivka and other key areas, with no frontline changes despite nine Russian assaults. In Kreminna and Svatove, persistent Russian assaults on Berestove and Makiivka, with no frontline changes. In the Kupiansk direction, continued battles for Synkivka and Petropavlivka, with no new Russian advances.
