OIG has been unusually slow to post elsets for the two objects from
Sunday's Progress M1-3 launch to the ISS. The current ones for both are:

Note: This is a morning object as it leaves eclipse near 40 deg N
while southbound. It enters eclipse while northbound near 20 deg N in
the evening. I show this decaying over Madagascar on the approach to
a northbound equator crossing over the Indian Ocean.
