Isn't that the same bridge head that Ukraine have totally not held for weeks and have been kicked out of every other day by heroic russians totally not getting their tank wrecked attempting it and the footage is fake CGI.

Tanks as in plural. There were at least two full scale assaults on the bridgehead, both repulsed with heavy losses of men and equipment.

It was announced last week, but the Finnish consulate in St. Petersburg is getting closed (there's other stuff that's affecting it, but I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have happened without NATO).

ah, thanks! it is still very funny to me that a bunch of people over here were like "wait, you did something before?" like punching someone as hard as you can and them saying "Now, if you ever hit me and I find out about it ..."

The SSU detained a russian informant who wanted to disrupt the Ukrainian counteroffensive on the eastern front.

According to the investigation, the attacker turned out to be a 48-year-old local resident who, on his own initiative, offered the invaders his help in the war against Ukraine.

"He is currently in custody. An investigation is ongoing to bring to justice all participants in the crime. The perpetrators face up to 15 years in prison," –– the SSU press service writes.

Yeah, Denys is a good source. Makes sure to not put anything gory or gross, and most everything is stills. The other source I use is Reporting from Ukraine, who tends to be less bombastic than Denys and more focused.

I like his overall drill-down approach. Reporting from Ukraine seems to be just more "here's what happened" and holistic viewing. Denys seems to really get into the details of why things are happening or not happeninig.

BUELLER!

Been looking at NUMBERS,

Russia currently can produce 20,000 shells a month, and they're struggling to do that and keep quality up. (https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/russia-bans-large-quantities-ammunition-163042802.html)

Thats up significantly from their pre-war 7,000 shell a month average (https://jamestown.org/program/russia-struggles-to-maintain-munition-stocks-part-two/)

[edit] hit post too soon

The US started the year at 3,250 a month, is now up to 14,000 per month, and heading towards 28,000 per month by end of year.
Germany started at 8,000 a month, and is heading towards 50,000 per month by end of year.
the rest of europe was at about 16,000 a month combined at beginning of year but also planning to expand.


This ... does not look like good news for Russia, as they are heavily reliant on an artillery advantage, does it?


Russia started the war firing 70,000 shells a day, and by end of 2022 was down to 20,000 a day, and april reporting said they were down to 10,000 a day, and it's just gotten worse since, while Ukrainian artillery continues to slowly grow. Have they reached parity?

At risk of going overboard, thirding this. He’s a former Ukrainian commercial pilot who lived in Crimea before the Russians invaded it. Like many, he can be overly optimistic about things, but is pretty good about presenting current events accurately. He’s also one of the rare pro-Ukraine channels that criticizes Ukraine sometimes - in particular re: corruption.
