As for the Russians.
They had a failed offensive at Orikhiv. They have to reconsider gather strength and push retry.
They have some success in a corner of Kharkov oblast. They announced big captures but not much that can be backed up with evidence. They fare a little better at Kupiansk, and inching forward from the east onto Sloviansk-Kramatorsk.
The main effort seems to be to the west, south-west from Sloviansk-Kramatorsk, around Dobropylia. If they succeed they can reach an area that is lightly fortified and has no hubs/forts. There they could move to the north and start an encirclement of the last important towns of Donetsk oblast.
They tested a new anti-drone equipment for armored vehicles. The name eludes me now. It seems it was quite successful, although Ukrainians tried to spin it differently, by cutting their drone footage to fit their purpose.

They constantly have midrange drone campaign, doing interdiction essentially. And they always have strategic air campaign on with Gerans, Gerberas, and rockets, except now the AFU's defensive capabilities diminished, and seems to be more effective so they dialed it up. They also have new version of the Gerans.
Bit earlier this year there were much talks about the possibility that Russia will strike NATO countries in retaliation for Ukrainian drone factories there, and drone strikes from NATO air. Along with the possibility of nuclear war.
There was this drone scare at a German airport that might or might not have been caused by Russians. We'll never know.

I think that's about it. If something comes to my mind, I'll add it.
