Ukraine weekly update:
The Ukrainian-aligned, anti-Kremlin Russian forces have carried out a series of attacks on Belgorod and Kursk Oblasts over the past 2 weeks.
In Belgorod, they entered the settlement of Gor'kovskii, south of the main Russian defensive line.
#Gaza map update:
#Israel is currently constructing a new road and security zone, spanning the width of the Gaza Strip.
This development is south of Gaza City and follows the path taken by IDF forces during the early stages of the conflict, which divided the Strip in half.
Weekly Ukraine update:
Continuing their westward movement from Avdiivka, 🇷🇺 forces have seized the settlement of Stepove, a significant portion of Orlivka, and are currently engaging in contested control over Tonen’ke and Berdychi.
This final waterfall chart visualises the cumulative impact of the monthly changes on overall occupation. The grey bars represent the total area occupied at the start of the war and then the total area occupied when the chart was created.
#Gaza map update for the past 2 weeks:
The #IDF advanced into the Abasan Al Kabira neighbourhood, southeast of Khan Yunis, connecting their areas of control along the border.
Northwest of the city, Israel carried out a raid along the coast, though they moved back the same day.
These four maps give an indication of how resistance territory grew slowly and steadily over the past four months from November until today, with armed groups now controlling over 50% of Myanmar.

I would expect Ukraine to continue to fall back to built and natural defensive positions behind the settlements of Tonen’ke and Orlivka at the very least. Possibly even as far back as Novoselivka Persha.
Russia's fortifications in Ukraine will scar Ukrainian land for generations.
These defenses slice through neighborhoods, farmlands, and forests across occupied territory. This map update includes previously unmapped Russian positions found in high resolution satellite imagery.
#Gaza map update:
The #IDF has entered the remaining pockets in Khan Yunis.
East of Khan Yunis IDF operations have expanded south towards Abasan Al Kabira.
In preparation for an upcoming operation towards Rafah, the IDF has expanded their positions along the Egypt border.
For background on the relief of the Omdurman siege and analysis of its significance, check out our February 4 map and article, "Sudan army close to breaking Omdurman siege." We'll update map soon. The breakthrough happened near Al-Tijani Al-Mahi Hospital.

SAF achieved a breakthrough in Omdurman, linking up their Karari Army with the long-besieged 'Engineers' force. Here men from the two forces embrace each other and shoot into the air, as supply vehicles move south. Details tomorrow.

Sentinel imagery from the 7th of February shows the alternate supply routes that Ukraine has used to supply Avdiivka so far. One from Lastokychne and one from Sieverne, with both converging and terminating north of the Khimik microdistrict.
After these, it's over the fields.
#Gaza map update:
There have been minimal changes in the past week. The #IDF have been gradually expanding their operations within the city of Khan Yunis itself, but with slow progress.
