Russian milbloggers Rybar and War Gonzo are reporting Ukrainian advances. https://t.co/nodaUN2mF0

Since both sides are already reporting it, I will release the information I collected, too. There is anyway a delay of this information and therefore does not compromise OPSEC.

Every Russian troop killed is a sigh of relief for common decency.

Good to see HIMARS back in the spotlight lately.

It's funny to see Russians surprised by Ukraine switching HIMARS from destroying command outposts to using it to just bombard trenches. Hope America keeps Ukraine well supplied with ammo to flatten these troop positions, Storm Shadow meanwhile has sort of taken over the role of taking out command outposts.

Send ATACMS.

Rybar reporting major Ukrainian advances in the Velyka Novosilka area, with Ukrainian forces capturing Neskuchne and Blahodatne "almost without a fight", and moving on Urozhaine and Novodonets'ke. pic.twitter.com/4Xu2Z5YFEw

Rybar say that the Russian/DNR Kaskad unit withdrew from Neskuchne and Blahodatne, and Ukrainian forces are fighting in vicinity of Urozhaine and attempting to advance on Novodonetske. https://t.co/ABqiH5Sfmt https://t.co/bWrIxUKICR https://t.co/8QsFqLlNlN pic.twitter.com/5ALZOYwBxy

This is interesting. I always liked Kharkiv more than the southern front for an offensive. https://t.co/wYCTyv8zm4

Pegov acknowledges some Ukrainian tactical successes and notes that the location of Ukrainian advances is between the AOR for different Russian units.

Worth keeping in mind that the main line of Russian defenses is still south of Urozhaine (marked)https://t.co/0YaHCqGmcy pic.twitter.com/w4VEZyKFeC

In regards to losses, lets look at it from an overall perspective.

Oryx:

Losses from June 3-8th:

Russia: 56
Ukraine: 53

Losses from June 8-10th:

Russia: 32
Ukraine: 30

-

Considering the counteroffensive has begun and Ukraine is in mostly an operational blackout, Russia has desperately spammed Ukrainian losses to the point of repeating the same image but in different angles and Ukraine's Western equipment offers high survivability which means it can be reclaimed and repaired (as is the case already with a Leopard II and few Bradleys, The Iris-T has also been changed now from Destroyed to Damaged) and on top of all of that, the defender is meant to have an advantage!

An essentially 1:1 loss ratio for the attacker is brilliant, especially for one with little air support.

One of the critical axis of advances, toward Novodonetsk, appears to see some success.

This is one of four I’m watching closely (no, I won’t disclose the other 3) https://t.co/vNpxypS4O5

Russian sources claimed that #Ukraine's armed forces have tactical advantages in conducting assaults at night due to Western-provided equipment with superior night optics systems. https://t.co/mZr7Go9rqf https://t.co/UrnbjBmz0C pic.twitter.com/P7aErTgubV

Chernov makes the point with recourse to the backstory behind a brother and sister he films in a hospital corridor, each grieving the loss of a child.

"I filmed those children – four little feet on the gurney - but couldn't use that. The brother and sister buried their children in a yard, escaped, but then managed to go back ready to give them a proper burial. But the Russians had dug them up and put them with others. So they went through hundreds of decomposing bodies to find their own children, which they did, to bury them properly in the cemetery, just days before the rest were put into a mass grave."

The atrocity against Mariupol is probably – so far – the most egregious war crime on European soil since the second world war. There are an estimated 25,000 dead in Mariupol, "though the total is probably treble that," says Chernov.
