🇬🇧 Our soldiers were able to get out of the flooded areas

🇬🇧🇺🇦 Khodakovsky reports that Novodonetsk has again come under the control of the Russian army:

“Unable to break through our defenses, the enemy considered his position unfavorable and began to crawl away from the captured positions. Yesterday, at the end of the day, Novodonetskoye was almost completely in his hands, with the exception of a few streets - at the moment we have restored control over the settlement. Losses on our part turned out to be much smaller than they could have been with such an aggressive onslaught. Domestic communications worked reliably, imports were put down immediately. Today, the situation is at the level of the usual background - apparently, there is a regrouping."


@akuruoulo how far now...

🇷🇺🇺🇦 As a reminder, just a few short months ago Western analysts were saying that, for Russia to do this, would be equivalent to “blowing its own foot off”. They now want you to forget that and just blame Russia while ignoring that:

1. Once the reservoir finishes draining, the river will be much smaller and easier to ford by the AFU.

2. The flooding is forcing the abandonment of Russian defensive positions as well as the destruction of minefields along the River.

3. The destruction of the Dam means Crimea loses its water access.

The strategic benefits are obvious for Ukraine; up to this point Russia could economize in the Kherson sector, as the wide ranging river with no bridges precluded any serious amphibious assault.

By doing this terrorism, they’ve now created a realistic threat of such once the flood waters recede, which will divert Russian reserves to cover this sector instead of allowing them to be used against the Ukrainian offensive further East.

🇷🇺 [b]Breakthrough of the dam of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power station - what will happen to the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant: expert commentary

There is a person among my acquaintances who is very well versed in the matter. And I asked him to make a comment, what could be the consequences for the Zaporozhye NPP of today's breakthrough of the dam of the Kakhovskaya HPP.

Here is the original text:

"At the Zaporozhye NPP, the spent fuel pools and the reactor in the MCU mode (minimum controlled level) are cooled from special" splash "pools, they are located on land and are clearly visible from the satellite. There, water circulates in a closed circuit, gradually evaporates from heating by the sun and it is simply topped up (not from the river).

The cooling pond is separated from the Kakhovka reservoir by a dam and has a couple of gates for "receiving" or "draining" water (depending on the level difference).

The pond is large, I don’t remember a single case when in the summer there was a decrease in the power of the blocks due to the high water temperature in the pond. The pond is divided by a partition into 2 parts, so that water can be taken from one place, and the water that has passed through the turbine condensers can be drained to another. Water "walks" around the ring and cools.

In any case, the Zaporozhye NPP will operate only with the 5th and 6th blocks for the time being, and this pond will definitely be enough for them.

If there is a problem with water, one or more plastic pipes will reach the place where there will still be water in the reservoir and this will be enough to solve it. In this case, you just need to compensate for evaporation and leakage in the reservoir."[/b]

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦 Dams like Nova Kahkovka are protected by the laws of war and the Geneva convention for a reason. According to Article 56 of the 1977 Additional Protocol I:

“Works and installations containing dangerous forces, namely dams, dykes and nuclear electrical generating stations, shall not be made the object of attack, even where these objects are military objectives, if such attack may cause the release of dangerous forces and consequent severe losses among the civilian population. Other military objectives located at or in the vicinity of these works or installations shall not be made the object of attack if such attack may cause the release of dangerous forces from the works or installations and consequent severe losses among the civilian population.”

🇬🇧🇺🇦In Kyiv, after one of the arrivals, thirty ambulances go to the place

🇬🇧🇺🇦 So far, we really saw 3 abandoned AMX-10s and how yesterday American armored vehicles exploded on mines and caught birds.
We are waiting for proofs for leopards, even if there are not 8 of them.
And I also understand correctly that they knocked down the composition of the whole brigade in one day at the briefing?) After all, why feel sorry for them.

WrriterNig:
⚡️🇮🇷 Iran's hypersonic missile dubbed Fatah (conqueror) is unveiled.

This makes Iran one of only three countries in the world to possess a hypersonic warhead, or more accurately, a hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV).

These warheads can change course mid flight and right before impact at high speeds, making them nearly impossible to intercept.

another problem for Usa

🇺🇦🇷🇺Counterattack from Seversk towards Soledar:

Enemy Destroyed:
5 tanks (T-80)
8 infantry fighting vehicles
Approximately:
20 - 200(10 got into the ring)
30 - 300.
There were two waves, we are waiting for more.

The enemy did not use electronic warfare, there was no fpv either. There were two waves of dji with resets and one fury entry for reconnaissance. Fury suppressed, copters partially planted

The beginning of the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Zaporozhye is accompanied by reports of the loss of senior officers.

The administration of the Bolgradsky district informs that on June 4, while performing a combat mission, the head of the department of the operational command "South", Colonel Alexander Makaev, died.

The circumstances are not disclosed.

Is it not too earlier to be losing senior officer

Akuruoulo:
With join a day old counter offensive , territories are falling already.
Something that took Russia months to capture.




Thought Russia destroyed all the Patriots and other western arms ?
What are ukrainians using?

is it not too earlier for Ukraine senior officer to be falling?

[b]The Sunday Times published an important article about the latest Ukrainian offensive:

Although the Ukrainian Armed Forces have 200 Western tanks and hundreds of Western armored vehicles, the Ukrainians rely more on Russian weapons and face logistical problems due to lack of ammunition, worn-out guns and dismantled vehicles for use as spare parts. They have learned to use western weapons, but this is the easiest part of the battle, the application from a military point of view is much more difficult.

Ukraine also suffers from inefficient systems for evacuating the wounded.

Ukrainians also suffer from the pace of combat training, as the Ukrainian Armed Forces quickly enrolled thousands of soldiers in Western training programs, but this is not a well-coordinated and comprehensive training for combined arms operations.

The Russians still use a familiar form of fighting as they rely on defenses from behind sieges and elaborate defensive fortifications made up of minefields, barbed wire, tank traps and old trenches to slow down attackers and direct them into "firebags" where artillery and heavy machine guns are used to destroy them

The newspaper warned that the Ukrainian offensive could upset the "political balance" to the point of irritating Putin and prompting him to escalate, for example, to use nuclear weapons or otherwise.

Putin tends to overreact when he needs to make decisions quickly[/b]

[b] Regarding messages from the enemy that "there is no offensive."

Since so far the enemy has not been able to capture significant settlements during the attacks, he has already laid a straw for himself in advance if he cannot take anything significant. In this case, after the failure of the offensive, it will be possible to say that we did not declare an offensive, therefore we did not capture anything. But if they can take something, then they will later declare that this is where the offensive took place.

The enemy simply does not want to step on the same rake as with the "counteroffensive near Artemovsk", which lasted from May 10 to June 1 and did not lead to the occupation of at least one village. Here, the Armed Forces of Ukraine turned out to be hostages of their own propaganda, which rattled incessantly for several weeks about the "counterattack near Bakhmut" and which later turned out to have nothing to show against the backdrop of defeat in the battles for the city.[/b]

🇺🇦🇷🇺⚡The Armed Forces of Ukraine today for the first time used Leopard tanks in the battle in Donbass, Deputy Head of the Main Directorate of the Russian Guard for the DPR, said.

"Leopards" were thrown into the battle near Novodonetsk, where at this moment the Armed Forces of Ukraine are developing an offensive against the positions of the RF Armed Forces," he said.
