🇺🇦 Zelensky: The very brutal targeted Russian shelling of Zaporizhzhia began in the evening. Nine-story residential buildings, a university building, a shopping center, and a boiler room were damaged.

A woman died in Lozova, Kharkiv Oblast, as a result of a drone strike. Three more people were injured. In total, the Russians struck ten of our regions in the evening and during the night.

Belarus and Russia are currently conducting a large military exercise right next to the Suwałki gap with over 9000 soldiers NATO is keeping a close eye with AWACS aircraft up near Kaliningrad and on the Lithuanian and Polish border.

They are simulating a push into Kaliningrad.

NEW: Ukraine’s Operation Vivaldi in the Lyman direction demonstrates Ukraine’s recent progress in restoring elements of tactical maneuver on the battlefield, enabled in part by Ukraine’s shaping operations and intermediate-range strike campaign that degrades Russian electronic warfare (EW) capabilities. (1/2)

Other Key Takeaways:

Ukrainian forces achieved operational surprise by leveraging rigorous operational security (OPSEC) and counter-drone operations to degrade Russian forces’ operational awareness.

Russian forces are transferring armor and drone support assets to the Dobropillya direction for future mechanized assaults in Fall 2026.

Ukrainian forces are intensifying their long-range strike campaign against Russian military assets, including by conducting a suppression and destruction of enemy air defenses (SEAD/DEAD) campaign in Rostov Oblast.

Russia continues to rely on North Korea to wage war against Ukraine and alleviate Russian labor shortages.

Lithuanian President Gitanas Nauseda publicly acknowledged on September 16 that Russia may be deliberately allowing Russian drones to deviate from their intended course and enter NATO airspace in order to punish countries supporting Ukraine.

The US House of Representatives passed the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026 on September 16, which authorizes the US to impose tariffs of up to 100 percent on the five largest importers of Russian oil and natural gas.

Ukrainian forces recently advanced near Kupyansk.

Russia launched 157 drones, 10 Banderol/Dan-T loitering munitions, and an unspecified number of missiles at Ukraine overnight.

❗️Ukraine is signing contracts with partners for the delivery of about 1,000 missiles for Patriot air defense systems, funded by an EU loan of €3.2 billion. Defense Minister Yevhenii Khmara announced this at the Ramstein meeting. Most of the missiles will arrive only over the coming years, so Kyiv is asking allies to transfer 300 missiles from their existing stocks now — offering in return future improved munitions from the new contracts.

NEW: Negotiations to secure the durable and lasting peace that US President Donald Trump has said he aims for cannot be based on Russian lies. They can only be based on the actual realities of the battlefield and the real trajectory of the war, which does not favor Russia.

More Key Takeaways:

The Ukrainian military demonstrated, and a Kremlin-affiliated milblogger acknowledged, the falsity of one of Russian President Vladimir Putin's more outrageous claims of fictitious Russian gains in Donetsk Oblast.

The pervasive culture of lying within the Russian armed forces paradoxically both damages Russian forces' ability to fight effectively and supports exaggerated Kremlin claims that Putin weaponizes to enhance Russia's negotiation position.

Negotiations to secure the durable and lasting peace that US President Donald Trump has said he aims for cannot be based on Russian lies. They can only be based on the actual realities of the battlefield and the real trajectory of the war, which does not favor Russia.

Ukrainian forces recently advanced in the Slovyansk direction and the Kostyantynivka-Druzhkivka tactical area.

Russia launched 92 drones against Ukraine overnight. Ukrainian forces continued their long-range strike campaign against Russian military assets and oil infrastructure on the night of September 6 to 7.

🇺🇦🤜🇷🇺 BREAKING: DISASTER FOR RUSSIAN FORCES IN LYMAN!

The Ukrainian Defense Forces have completed a brilliant encirclement, trapping ~500 Russian occupiers in a "cauldron." All retreat routes are SEVERED.🇺🇦💪

The chaos is absolute: A precision strike just obliterated the 51st Army Command Post in Donetsk. Reports confirm the Commander and his deputies have been LIQUIDATED.

No command. No escape. Total panic in the Russian ranks. 🇺🇦⚡️

❗️In Russia’s Engels, fighters from the SBU Alpha unit struck a Tu-95MS missile carrier. These are the very aircraft that carry out strikes on Ukraine, — Zelenskyy.

[Institute for the Study of War @TheStudyofWar]

MORE🧵(1/3) : Russian forces have intensified efforts to advance toward Slovyansk from the eastern and southeastern directions following unsuccessful attempts to attack Slovyansk from the northeast through Lyman at the beginning of the Russian Spring-Summer 2026 offensive. Russian forces are also actively advancing in Kostyantynivka in the south of the Fortress Belt, but Ukrainian forces continue to have a limited presence in the settlement.

Ukrainian attack drones hit Russia's Perm Oil Refinery this morning, setting it ablaze.

Locals reported multiple explosions and pillars of smoke rising from the complex, one of Russia’s largest oil refineries.

[Defense of Ukraine @DefenceU]

Russian air defense keeps going up in flames.

The 15th Brigade “Black Forest” found and destroyed an S-300 transporter-loader loaded with missiles. The missiles detonated, completely burning out the launcher.

[Institute for the Study of War @TheStudyofWar]

MORE: Russian strikes continue inflicting substantial damage in ways that disproportionately impact civilians, despite a high Ukrainian interception rate of all projectiles except for ballistic and quasi-ballistic missiles. Russian forces continue launching prolonged waves of ballistic and cruise missiles and long-range drones to overwhelm Ukrainian air defense systems and to exhaust air defenders and civilians. ISW continues to assess that Russian forces will continue the pattern of stockpiling cruise and ballistic missiles for periodic large, combined strike packages.
