Ukrainian military advances on Lyman front and targets Russian drone command posts

Ukrainian forces have conducted targeted operations against Russian positions while advancing along key frontlines. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported successful strikes on four Russian drone control facilities, including a command post operated by the specialized "Rubikon" unit in occupied Berdyansk.

On the Lyman front, Ukrainian troops made progress during Operation Vivaldi. A company commander noted that delayed reporting by local Russian officers gave Ukrainian assault units vital time to advance, a move acknowledged by Russian military bloggers despite official silence from Moscow.

In addition, senior commanders provided insights into ongoing operations. Commander Lasiychuk of the 7th Air Assault Corps explained tactical force prioritisation between Pokrovsk and Dobropillia, while Andriy Klymenko, commander of the "Madyar's Birds" brigade, outlined how the expanded 7th Center conducts deep-strike operations behind enemy lines.
