On 11 November, Russian forces intensified assaults on Ukrainian positions around Kurakhove in Donetsk Oblast, advancing from the north, south and east in an effort to encircle the city.

Earlier on Monday, a press officer for Ukraine's 46th Separate Airborne Brigade operating in the city and a source of Ukrainska Pravda on the Kurakhove front reported that the Russian army had come close to Kurakhove and was even entering the town with vehicles.

However, the town is fully under the control of the Ukrainian defence forces, in particular the 46th Airborne Brigade.

On 12 November, DeepState reported that Russian forces are currently not showing any activity that would indicate preparations for a "major" offensive on Zaporizhzhia. Most of the Russians' active operations remain within Donetsk Oblast.

Israel has begun a construction project along the so-called Alpha Line that separates the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights from Syria, apparently laying asphalt for a road right along the frontier, satellite photos analyzed by The Associated Press show. Israeli troops have entered the demilitarized zone during the work, the United Nations confirmed to the AP, a violation of the cease-fire rules governing the area. The work, which earlier satellite photos show began in earnest in late September, follows the completion by the Israeli military of new roadways and what appears to be a buffer zone along the Gaza Strip's frontier with Israel.
