On the night of January 5, Russian forces launched a massive strike against targets in the Chernihiv region, firing up to eight Iskander missiles. Six of the missiles hit targets in Chernihiv, and the other two struck what is believed to be the 169th Training Center of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the village of Desna.
There have been reports of intensified fighting in the border area near Glukhov, north of the city of Sumy, for the first time since last spring. Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups are operating in the area.
There has been a significant increase in attacks by the Ukrainian army in the border villages of Khomutovka and Kalinovka in the Kursk region over the past day. Ukrainian drone operators have become more active, carrying out a large number of strikes on substations and residential buildings.
In the Kharkiv region, Russian troops are creating new points of tension. The border village of Sotnitsky Kazachok has been captured. This section of the front was previously calm, with no reported combat operations.
The Russian command’s probable intention is to force the Ukrainian army to disperse its reserves. Currently, most of the reserves have been transferred to Kupyansk, where intense fighting for control of the city is underway. There are no large reserves remaining in northern Ukraine. Russian troops are taking advantage of this by expanding the scope of the conflict.
Combat operations on the front line in the Slavyansk area are steadily intensifying. assault troops captured the village of Bondarnoe. Ukrainian defenses were breached.
Russian units achieved tactical success in Konstantinovka. They established control over the area around the railway station. Additionally, there are reports of the capture of the area between Ivanopolye and Berestok on the southern outskirts.
A large number of small rivers create natural lines of defense for the Ukrainian army. Konstantinovka’s central area is located in a lowland, making it vulnerable. Given these conditions, it is likely that the Russian command will first try to capture Berestok, which dominates the entire city.
The situation on the front line near Zaporizhzhia is developing rapidly. On January 5, Russian paratroopers’ advanced assault units approached the village of Novoyakovlevka.
The Russian command’s operational plan is beginning to take shape. Two pincers are clearly visible, encircling the town of Orekhov, a key defensive hub for the Ukrainian army in this sector. First, the advance will continue northeast toward Zarechnoye. Capturing one of these settlements would undermine the logistics of the entire Ukrainian troop grouping in Orekhov.
To the east, a pincer strike may be launched from the Gulyaipole area. The goal is to isolate Orekhov and enable its eventual capture by preventing the Ukrainian command from transferring sufficient forces to Stepnogorsk to the west.

technical issue: i am seeing a black square instead of thumbnail on the site recently. not sure if i am the only person?
funny business from crimea allegedly.
yes in firefox, and if i right click and open image in new tab it says 503 service temporarily unavailable nginx, however thumbnails on older articles are displayed ok even though they still seem to be on the same cdnstatic site. opera browser seems to work even with the vpn feature turned off if you want a workaround.
why bother it won’t be anything anyway
no, same here! try to open the thumbnail graphic in a new tab, and you will see the nginx error 503! the problem is a cms server misconfiguration: since the start of the year all new thumbnails are placed on s1.cdnstatic.space instead of s5.cdnstatic.space. if you change the url of the graphic from s5 to s1 you will see the thumbnail.
going for chernihiv hugging the belarus borders and threatening kiev would be great.
