Has Ukraine lost any of the 20 something Himars/ MLRS Systems so far ?
Per Russian, Ukraine has lost about 30 something or the 20 something.
But seriously I assume the real number is closely guarded and unknown

We are rapidly approaching the point that the next major shift in the fighting will be how the Ukrainians overcome and the Dniper. Around Kharkiv, they were able to do an end around the Oskil on both ends and then used that to roll up Lyman while keeping pressure north.
Here we are going to have to see a major water crossing under enemy fire. Now we may see Kherson fall first and then the Ukrainians play a game of counter battery for a bit hoping to limit what the Russians can throw at them, but the “how they actually cross” aspect is going to be incredibly interesting.

If the Ukrainians launch an attack south towards Melitopol and sever the land bridge, then they can turn west and roll right into the Russian flank on the southern side of Dnipro river.
Go in this order
1) Take the eastern side of the Inhulets River (Underway).
2) Take Kherson (don't actually need to do this until #4 is underway)
3) Take Melitopol
4) Drive west from Melitopol

Another Russian Su-25 shot down in Kherson. The pilots of those close air support aircraft are having a rough go of it. Easy targets for MANPADS.

Here's a vehicle I haven't seen before.
Video of it in operation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vG8_6T9kWOE&t=1269s
Supposedly it's a trench digger

A little rant from Rybar, responding to a "https://Kherson.ru" telegram channel which called the northeast of the Rus. Kherson group "a small unimportant ledge". Quite the opposite, it was important for future offensives to a number of locations.

I’m glad we sent another 16 M777 howitzers and 16 M119 105 mm guns also but they will still need a lot more than that. I’ve been advocating we to send them more of our older M119 105 mm guns over the M777 just because we can’t keep drawing from our stocks on those guns as there aren’t that many in the first place. We started phasing the 105 mm M119 out with our forces though so we should be able to send them more of those without hurting our own fighting capability. They aren’t as long range or precise as the M777 but they are still very effective artillery that is more than adequate to go against anything Russia has. South Korea is the real key here though. If we can work a deal for them to supply artillery and ammunition it would be a game changer for Ukraine because they have the stocks to be able to send them without degrading their own capabilities. South Korea built lots of artillery, towed and self propelled to deal with the north’s large supply of old Soviet howitzers.

Good lord it looks like a truck dragging scrap metal to the junkyard. The Russians can sure make some ugly looking shite.

Per Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani, Iran does not recognized the so-called "referendums" organized by Russia in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.

This was supposed the be a modernized Russian military rebuilt after it was in complete shambles after the Soviet collapse. LINK
Ukraine is proving this military rebuild was apparently a failure & its going to be even tougher going forward.
They sure got that article wrong. They totally ignored the logistics component as well.

Ukraine claims Russia lost 44 tanks 27 APCs yesterday.

Unsustainable losses is and understatement( if true).

I’m never sure how to feel about these numbers. I am sure Ukraine puffs them up for morale, but I also no longer put it past Russia to have exponentially increasing stupidity on an hourly basis :shrug:

Any chance Ukraine creates a constitutional amendment to allow civilians to own guns like America?

I concur, that's why I try to avoid the numbers game.
Oryx is the best source on Twitter for equipment loss numbers.
