Rai-Aleksandrovka in the Slavyansk/Kramatorsk direction is in good Russian hands...

Located on the dominant heights 11 km east of the outskirts of Slavyansk, the liberation of Rai-Alexandrovka allows Russian forces to keep a significant part of Slavyansk and the northern districts of Kramatorsk under fire control, as well as attack Slavyansk directly and to the south towards the N20 highway connecting it with Kramatorsk. Once it is cut off, the two largest cities in the north of the DPR will be isolated from each other.

(411 settlements in the last 442 days)

What's happening near Slavyansk and Kramatorsk? The Russian Armed Forces have achieved significant success by liberating Rai-Alexandrovka. The assault had been going on since the end of March due to the stubborn resistance of the AFU, which, understanding the importance of this settlement, turned it into a formidable fortified position. Why is Rai-Alexandrovka so important? It is (was) one of the most important AFU logistical and defensive nodes near Slavyansk, which, along with Raigorodok (the starting point of the "Siversky Donets — Donbass" water canal), supports this section of the front. The liberation of Rai-Alexandrovka by Russian forces will in the future provide support for further advancement to the west towards Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, where the next target of the offensive will be Nikolaevka with the Slavyansk TPP — the largest AFU fortified position in this direction. It is only about 2 km from the outskirts of Nikolaevka to the first houses of Slavyansk.

The city of Krasny Liman is practically liberated... The situation here is much better than with Konstantinovka... The enemy side understands that they will be trapped by the Oskol River and have started to leave the city in advance... The last crossing for military equipment has been destroyed... Now, the only way to leave the water trap for the Ukrainian Armed Forces is on foot... 18.06.2026

Kiev's strikes on Moscow: and about the "Flamingo" while we're at it...

I continue to analyze the results of last night's enemy strike on Moscow (and not only). In addition to about 400 UAVs launched towards the capital (98% of which were shot down, which is actually a very good result), the enemy also launched four "heavy" FP-5 "Flamingo" cruise missiles.

What's curious about this fact? The fact that there were FOUR missiles while there used to be SIX!!! During their previous massive strike (on the night of June 14-15), six missiles were used simultaneously, but then one of the missiles malfunctioned and destroyed not only its launcher, but the neighboring one as well.

After that, there was another attempt to attack with TWO missiles, then today, there were FOUR of them launched against Moscow.

It's clear that Kiev used everything it could for the strike on Moscow – this is evidenced by the type of drones that participated in the raids. The fact that only FOUR FP-5 "Flamingo" missiles were used shows that Kiev doesn't have more launchers for them. They will of course someday, but for now it is what it is. And a big thank you to our air defense units for shooting all those missiles down today.

— 🇺🇸/🇮🇷 NEW: U.S. Central Command confirms that the naval blockade against Iran has ended

@Middle_East_Spectator

Here is a concrete example of "kinetic action". The "Yolka" drone rams the strike drone, causing its fuselage to separate from the wings and fall with the intact bomb, where it successfully detonates. If it were an interceptor drone with a warhead, all this would have exploded in the air, and only small, relatively harmless fragments would have fallen to the ground. Outside the SMO zone, using interceptor drones with warheads is prohibited. Why? Who knows. Those are the rules.
