The UK Ministry of Defense reported that Russia's A-50 early warning aircraft fleet is likely grounded following Ukraine's success in shooting down two of these high-tech planes in recent months. With only a handful of these costly aircraft in its fleet, Russia's loss significantly degrades its situational awareness and air support capabilities. Ukraine has claimed a string of victories in shooting down Russian warplanes, forcing Russian pilots to fly further away to protect themselves, resulting in less accurate bomb strikes.

According to UK intelligence, Ukraine is successfully repelling Russian attacks in the left bank of the Dnipro River in the Kherson region, despite facing logistical challenges. The Russian Dnepr Grouping of Forces has been unable to dislodge Ukrainian defenders, possibly due to poor training and coordination. The UK Ministry of Defense emphasizes that Russia's objective of forcing Ukraine to withdraw its forces from the area remains a priority, and predicts continued attacks in the coming weeks. Ukraine's defense forces have reportedly destroyed a counterbattery radar and nine armored vehicles belonging to the Russian invaders in the region.
