Russian forces secured more gains in the special military operation zone between September 10 and 11, with reports of at least two settlements being captured in the Pokrovsk direction. Meanwhile Ukraine’s only gain came in the shape of another episode of political violence in the United States which claimed the life of a well-known critic of support for the Kiev regime.
Ground Situation – Key Fronts
Pokrovsk–Mirnograd: The Russian military pushed forwards in this direction under the cover of air and artillery strikes. Troops managed to capture Sosnivka and Novomykolaivka in the Dnipropetrovsk region, dealing a heavy blow to Kiev forces. Pockets of resistance are still present near both settlements, and multiple Ukrainian counterattacks have been reported, but to no avail so far. The Russian advance in both settlements could be a sign of a nearing collapse of Ukrainian defenses in this direction.

Konstantinovka–Druzhkovka: More Russian strikes targeted Kiev forces in this direction. According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, three mechanized brigades of the Ukrainian military and a territorial defense brigade were hit there. The recent strikes appear to have crippled Kiev forces’ ability to launch counterattacks in this direction, at least for the time being.
Northeast (Sumy, Kharkiv–Kupyansk): Heavy fighting continued near Yunakovka and its surroundings in the Sumry region. Kiev forces dispatched large reinforcements, including special forces as well as western-made armored vehicles and artillery, nearby over the past day. Still, the Russian military managed to repel two counterattacks. Kiev forces took heavy losses.
The Russian MoD also reported multiple engagements near Kupyansk and Izyumskoye in the Kharkov region, with Ukrainian losses there.
Zaporizhzhia and the South: Kiev forces brought in large reinforcements and intensified attacks with FPV suicide drone over the past day. Still, the Russian military advanced in Stepnogorsk. A Ukrainian counterattack was also repelled on the left bank of the Volchya River in Volchansk. In addition, Russian attacks were reported close to Orekhiv and in the direction of Mala Tokmachka.
Kherson: The Russian military remains focused on limiting the movement of Ukrainian boats in the Dnipro River. At the same time, the Russian MoD reported more strikes on Kiev forces in Olgovka and Antonovka.
In the Black Sea: the Ukrainian military intelligence attacked a Russian Project MPSV07 rescue ship with a suicide drone in Novorossiysk Bay near Krasnodar Kra. Overnight, operations by Ukrainain boats, possibly unmanned, were also reported near the same area.
Political Front:
The most important event of the last 24 hours was without a doubt the cold-bloded assassination of Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative activist in the United States, a founder of Turning Point USA, and well-known critic of the Kiev regime.
Charlie was fatally shot during a speaking event at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. The 31-year-old was struck in the neck by a single bullet fired from a rooftop, approximately 200 yards away, while debating at his “American Comeback Tour.” President Donlad Trump, who himself survived two assassination attempts before taking office earlier this year, personnel pronounced the death of Kirk, praising the late man’s political work. Utah Governor Spencer Cox later called the killing a “political assassination.”
The suspect, believed to be college-aged, remains at large, with a high-powered rifle recovered. Their motives remain unclear.
The assassination was praised by many from the left-wing in the U.S., with some citing Kirk’s stance on Ukraine as a just reason to celebrate his death.
Kirk opposed U.S. military and financial aid to Ukraine, calling the Russia-Ukraine conflict a “border dispute” and criticizing President Zelenskyy as a “CIA puppet.” He even criticized Ukrainian past attacks on the Donbass and argued that U.S. funds should not support a country “few can find on a map.”
In a post to X, Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of Russia’s Security Council, linked the assassination of Kirk to “left-wing liberal scum who support Banderite Kiev.”
He suggested that the Trump-led MAGA movement should recognize that supporting Ukraine equates to supporting “murderers,” also referencing the attempt on the live of the Prime Minister of Slovakia Robert Fico last year.
The assassination of Kirk will for sure bring relief to some in Kiev. However, many in the U.S. will also see the killing as a reason to review their stance, especially when it comes to causes championed by those on the far-left like Ukraine.
Conclusion
The latest military developments bring nothing new. Russia is still making gains and Ukraine is still losing ground, all while suffering heavy material and human losses. Kiev forces clearly lack the resources, especially when it comes to manpower, to keep the situation on all fronts under control. The country’s situation is slowly deteriorating. Still, those in Kiev appear to be not that interested in any settlement. And while relying on aid from the West, especially the U.S., has saved Kiev from a complete collapse, so far, the political tensions developing within this political axis could soon end this support, or at least limit it.

i never followed charlie kirk. but the murderers of free speech always come from extremist group think cult indoctrinations. just like the average israeli citizens typical viewpoint. these positions are adopted by mental laziness and the desire to belong to an ideal without question. how the media distorts these events for public view is always biased
still better to stand on your feet in revolt than to submit to control by submission
well, the mindset of russians and also some ukrainians is to brown nose so deep in vladolfs mangina they got stuck there and can’t ever be free of anything. i think they even like 👍🏾 it. hehehe 😂
i make $2700-$4700+dollar per week while i’m daring to the furthest corners of the planet. last week i worked by my pc in rome, monti carlo finally paris… this week i’m back in the usa. all i do are basic tasks from this one cool site……. see it, https://extrapay1.blogspot.com/
in a real revolt you don’t stand on your feet long, you get struck or shot down.
how this event will be used by media to install mass indoctrinations is my major concern. i suspect many deep state media assets will be employed to shape future outcomes.
i wonder if charlie kirk and his organization could have made him a future presidential candidate ?
some of his positions on epstine and ukraine were not welcome
this christian identitarian kook was calling out for an investigation into eighty years of us intelligence links to organized crime and jewish supremacist terror groups? was he opposed to private control of the economic resources in the ukraine? please.
you suspect that, do you? brilliant.
it almost all of the time comes from a leftist lunatic brainwashed by tv.
magic, just like the lone gunman in the book repository ? happy 911 . yet israeli involvement was conveniently redacted from the latest kennedy assassination document dump
remember the 4 dancing israeli gentleman, dancing in new york, on 9/11? aren’t all in the kiev government, dual citizens of israel and ukraine?
thanks for derping.
charlie kirk was a zionist/fascist christian…supporter of israel… make your mind!
derpsters can’t cope with the false binary. there is no left in the political and economic structures in the the united states, nor in most of the rest of the world for that matter. klowns who think the political divide is between embracing religious superstition or loving kooky identitarianism. meanwhile, plutocracy prevails from beijing to moscow to london to new york to lagos.
if you think killing a klown like charlie kirk was a case of murdering free speech then you are extremely lazy and plugged right into an unquestioning “ideal” which is essentially vaguely connected sentiments.
russia is collapsing and is now under control from beijing. maybe it’s with china hero zelenskyy should negotiate. hehehe 😂
another useless hasbara unit 8200 type joke post from a paid jester
i thought with usaid being cancelled, you would see less of them. however, i forgot the uk pensioners are footing the bill for integrity initiative/project alchemy and branches, including squadron 77.
he has to earn his shekels. it makes a change from gloating over their kiddie killing and all the other bloodthirsty joo antics.
put the crack pipe down.
how is russia collapsing? they have the majority of the world’s natural resources, in high demand. not forgetting, if you include ppp, they are the 4th largest economy, confirmed by international authorities. plus, their gdp debt is well under 19% (unlike any g7 nation) and they are completely self dependent. a nation that feed, educate and keep their people warm. how many other nations can say the same? starting with ukraine.
poor russian imbeciles mission creep has begun. everyone is about to gang up on them. “polish military to take part in a drone combat training in ukraine after airspace violations”.
then it will be the baltics, germany, the uk, france,the rest of the eu and eventually the us will deliver the final blow and take credit. putin and medvedev better start buying some property in china or mongolia so they can have a comfortable exile
watch out, vlad! bomber harris’s diaper brigade is coming for you!
reminds me of the
‘nato pampers’ you used to see back in 2014, before ‘comments sections’ banned memes. i hear keir starmer and many eu/us leaders have an unhealthy interest in diapers and kiev.
hahaha, they have been trying to do that for the past 11 years and it has only strengthened russia. how many nato forces on holiday in ukraine, are lying in the compost of the blackrock-monsanto-beyer compost, over in ukraine? will their little kiddies ever find mummy or daddy, during their lifetimes, or will they spend their lives waiting for them to come home?
riddle me this, why do you believe nato is so strong? do they have hypersonics? no. only the us is a nuclear triad nation and not forgetting most of their nukes are aged and waiting to be replaced, by a delayed replacement programme, same with france and the uk (who only have sea based nukes). russia, has been replacing all classes of her submarines over the last 10 years. with many of her nukes fresh off the conveyor belts, unlike any nato member.
the jooz and their stooges have an enormous superiority in lies and fairy stories. nobody can hold a candle to them.
apparently charlie kirk wasn’t maga enough.
probably. but they have no experience of nazis from the not so happy side, since they have lived in the source to nazi germany for hundreds of years. anyone which are not race…sorry, mindclean enough get killed, like kennedy. you understand why the three “astronauts” press conference looks like a funeral 😂 adolf trump will get them great trick movies again.
anybody know the history of fred trump’s german family? i wonder if they were heavily involved in the german socialist worker’s party that the man with the moustache led?
the jooz and their amerikunt whores casually carry out political murders all over the world whenever they feel like it, brag about it afterwards, and revel in their criminality. soleimani, nasrallah, arafat, chavez, attempts to murder maduro, putin, countless others. pigeons coming home to roost. hoist with their own petard. get used to it. sauce for the goose. what goes around, comes around. how is kirk any different?
a sign of usa 🇺🇸 deterioration as a society and country
the man had a family and i don’t celebrate his death. but the jooz and the amerikunts have carried out countless political murders all over the world. this is the new normal. get used to it. the same applies to the joo genocide in gaza. that is the new normal and rhere will be more of it. together with torture, rape, starvation, ethnic cleansing. these things have been normalised and we will see a lot more of them.
the ability to freely kill politicians means control, “exercised in the most radical way imaginable – by eliminating people influencing public opinion in a direction that’s not favorable to this organized criminal group,” popov summed up.”
this is right on the money. and you all know the culprit. the date is also no coincidence in the kabbalist, satanic arcane arts.
as popov says on sputnik:
the fsb vet suspects “some kind of criminal organization” has been in control of law enforcement and domestic intelligence in the us going back to the kennedy era, organizing them in such a way as to ease political murder and protect the masterminds.
goes back much further than that. didn’t the russian tzar alexander, back in 1863, send a fleet to the us, in case lincoln needed assistance when great britain and france wished to invade? the bankers never forgave russia. 1808, fall of the roman empire and not forgetting frankfurt was a free imperial city, within the roman empire. when did the frankfurt banking family get started on their european tour? which nations did they emigrate to?
the democrats are evil, the magas are evil… russians that believe magas are either dumb or traitours! political violence in usa is what the world wants! lmao!
zudfront… “independent organization” based in mar-a-lago lmao
kirk was a corpo-zionist stooge and grifter.
oh, boy was he! derpsters are overwhelmed by the false binary.
the assassination attempts of trump, all had links to ukraine and blackrock. man on a roof, aiming for the neck/head – butler’s and utah script. first thought was ‘i bet ukraine or their middle east sponsor were involved’. then i read about a private plane leaving the area, within 60 minutes, with transponders turned off, for 30 minutes.
