Vladimir Putin is preparing to escalate his war against Ukraine, which includes attacks on Kyiv’s allies in Europe. Western intelligence officials believe the Russian leader is laying the ground for a “stealth mobilisation” after elections this weekend, in which thousands of Russians could be drafted. 🔗 telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2…

A lot of people have been asking me about the Ukraine war casualties project. Right now the website is down because we are rebuilding it from scratch. Like everything in life, things always take longer than expected. Especially, since I want the new version to be updated on a weekly basis. Stay tuned!

YEMEN 🇾🇪 Was someone able to geolocate this ambush site? I think it's somewhere in the Al Mafraq - Maqbanah - Taizz sector. Original video from the Houthis:
مشاهد أولية من عملية "والله أشدُ بأساً وأشدُ تنكيلاً" العسكرية النوعية الواسعة من عدة مسارات متزامنة - 12 سبتمبر 2026م

There is also this hamlet to be geolocated, with a road junction, and a distinctive road island.

This is the approximate frontline situation on the Orikhiv front according to geolocated videos. The main conclusion is that the greyzone expends much further than what people imagine. Blue = 🇺🇦 Red = 🇷🇺 Yellow = Russia presence attested but area not secured

On a vu la même chose avec les Ukrainiens… Grande armée soviet vs petite armée soviet.
Hallucinant : l’Ukraine a remporté une superbe victoire, regagnant plus de 100 km carrés… parce que les officiers russes sur le front n’assumaient pas de remonter à leurs chefs la progression ukrainienne. Les ravages de la corruption dans les dictatures, c’est ça.

Everyone is talking about Ukraine clearing the Russian bridgehead north of Lyman, but why hasn't Deepstate updated the map?

"A man getting deep enough to plant a flag proves reach, not control." <--- Inconvenient fact: A man getting deep enough to plant a flag proves the other side have no control. "At a shallower depth, small groups moving through settlements and tree lines can stay in place without ever producing something worth filming." <--- Inconvenient fact: if a small group is in the same place over time - they had conquered the place.

The insanity of people in OSINT to think they know more from just publicly released video footages than the Russia military which have intel assets like drones, satellite, signal intellgience and other means... Its okay to think you are an expert, but to pretend you gonna be better than entire teams of hundreds, if not thousands of FULLTIME SOLDIERS / MILITARY SPECIALISTS / MILITARY ANALYST that does intel collection and analysis work 24/7 (working in shifts by the way) is pure delusional. Speaking from experience working as one of those full time shift intel specialist more than a decade ago - you have no idea how much a military collects, analyses and know. In details you would never imagine. Goodness.

Doesn’t this argument also hold for Ukraine? 🤔
To offset massive losses over 5 years of war in Ukraine, Russia continues to recruit people from various parts of the world.

Obviously, we have been tracking Ukrainian advances north of Lyman the entire time. We have tons of backdated geolocations, along with video footage, of the attacks dating back a long time. But the operation was deemed sensitive enough to be protected, similar to what happened in Kupyansk and then in south Donetsk. However, the operation in Lyman seemed even more protected since even the most in the know and honest Russian reporters seem to be missing it. Or at least silent about it. It was honestly shocking to watch how out of the loop the Russians really were, which I think is in large part due to the collective action of OSINT to avoid speaking about the situation.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 Russia Cannot Achieve Decisive Victory Without Mobilization Analysis of the possibility of a new mobilization in Russia in Fall 2026. Discussion of why it might be needed and how. On one hand, the number of contracts signed rate has dropped sharply, the quality of the new recruits has fallen, and many sources claim preparations are underway, but for now, Kremlin officials state mobilization is not an option.

This seems to be a much more realistic assessment
22 km by control zone. 12 km by grey-zone. Logistics is a real issue for Ukraine here, and the situation remains critical, but there is no encirclement.

🇺🇦 Ukrainian counterattack in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Yes, there are some Ukrainian gains. But let’s be honest: this sector is still a massive greyzone. Both sides are raising flags in contested territory. The line has barely moved since February. We’re still looking at Ternove–Uspenivka–Zeleny Hai. In my videos I said many times that Ukrainian forces could use the Vovcha River as a natural obstacle to stop Russian progression. That's exactly what happened. If you want, I can work on a deep dive on what's happening there 🫡
This is exactly the kind of Ukrainian operation that works because no one talks about it until everything is already done. For months, a group of Ukraine’s airborne assault troops worked in complete silence — the information flow was so calm you’d think the internet had taken a vacation. The commanders said it themselves: no leaks, no “something big is coming” posts, o bragging on social media. Just quiet, methodical work. That silence hurt the Russians. Their commanders reportedly kept telling superiors that “everything is under control,” even as the situation on the ground kept getting worse. Eventually it got so bad that Russian battalion commanders were sent straight to the front line — and at least two of them were eliminated by Ukrainian paratroopers. The courage and professionalism of Ukraine’s airborne assault troops made the operation possible. But the discipline and silence made it effective. Success loves silence. Glory to the airborne assault troops. Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 🇺🇦
