Very slight changes from what I see.

Obviously this is from a very biased Ukrainian source. However, if it is even remotely true that would mean that the Ukrainians are on the offensive in the Donetsk oblast as well as the Zap oblast. Also it gives us another opportunity to laugh at John Barron who was so adamant that Russia was going to capture Pokrovsk back in the fall of 2024!

no one is talking about Donbas fricktard

Then we find out that Rybar maps are anywhere between 15-20 kms forward of actual zero line.

Go ahead and spike the football for absolutely nothing, call me out by name and accuse me of shite when all I do is post legitimate information here (one of the few here who posts anything other than twitter schizo shite) and get ridiculed for it.

Keep posting information. I just think you need to do a better job of putting things in context.

Before and after

Don’t let em get you off your game.

So all those maps showing Russian gains that are supposedly evidence of a collapsing Ukraine,,,were wrong???

wow go figure

Russia is spent...the next few weeks are going to be very interesting. Can Ukraine maintain any momentum?

IF and it's a really big IF, Ukraine can maintain some sustained momentum, will the Russian army rout? I don't think Ukraine has that type of combat power. When Ukraine counterattacked in the Kharkiv region in the opening year of the war, Russia's army in that area basically ran. How fragile is Russia? How much punch does Ukraine have?

You can’t compare anything that’s going on right now to the kharkhiv counteroffensive in 2022. Russia only had about 25-30% of its current fighting force in Ukraine prior to mobilization in December 2022-January 2023. It is not realistic to expect Ukraine to make territorial gains anything close to that again in this war.

Flamingo missile proves low-altitude capability in repeat Russian strike

February 12, 2026, 02:30 PM

Ukraine’s Defense Forces confirmed a second successful use of the domestically developed FP-5 Flamingo missile, striking a major Russian GRAU (Main Rocket and Artillery Directorate) arsenal near Kotluban in Volgograd Oblast, suggesting the weapon’s ability to evade Russian air defenses and electronic warfare, Defense Express reported on Feb. 12.

This marks the second confirmed use of the Ukrainian missile, following January strikes on the Kapustin Yar test range — the site Russia uses to launch Oreshnik missiles.

Defense Express analysts believe the Ukrainian cruise missile demonstrates an effective ability to penetrate air defense and electronic warfare systems, as both targeted sites were expected to be heavily protected.

Kapustin Yar and the GRAU arsenal are located in the same Russian region, approximately 120 kilometers apart. This means that after the previous Flamingo strike, Russian forces were unable to significantly strengthen air defenses across Volgograd Oblast, the publication notes.

The successful use of the FP-5 may point to a significant upgrade of the missile, most likely the integration of a TERCOM (Terrain Contour Matching) system that enables flight at very low altitudes. TERCOM works by using a radio altimeter or specialized radar to read the terrain beneath the missile and compare it to a pre-loaded reference “map.”

The lower a cruise missile flies, the more effectively it evades air defense systems and radar detection. At the same time, the primary role of TERCOM is to provide a satellite-independent navigation system, greatly increasing the missile’s resistance to electronic warfare jamming, the experts add.
