Meanwhile, down south in temporarily occupied Crimea...

Invaders train to defend the "Crimean Bridge", amid clouds of smoke

The invaders have been training to defend the "Crimean Bridge", which connects the Ukrainian peninsula with the Krasnodar Territory. The structure was covered with clouds of smoke and an accident occurred on the bridge.

Since Jun-27, Ukraine have hit and destroyed at least 5 ammunition depots in Luhansk Oblast in eastern Ukraine, I've highlighted the approximate locations on the @Liveuamap. LINK

Another ammo depot (#6 in last week) is burning in Yasynuvata, North of Donetsk city. LINK

Ammo depot #7 in the last week, this time near the airport in Kherson, in the region of Chornobaivka LINK


#8 was the one near Popasna that I posted earlier

ETA: the Russians are either going to need to extend their supply lines (which didn't go well for them early in war, but times may have changed on this front) or figure out how to deal with (most likely) HIMARS

HIMARS doing work.

And that is with 4 systems on the ground operationally?

NATO would decimate the Russian military in a conventional fight.

there is legislation in Russia's Duma to authorize control of facilities AND WORKERS in the munitions industry, to cut wages and force overtime, as well as extra expenditures because Russia is running out of munitions.

The 4 US supplied. Germany is sending 3 , but they won't arrive until late July/ August. UK is also sending 3 & they should be arriving soon according to this interesting article..

UK says it takes about 5 weeks to train a commander on the m270.

Yes

The Ukrainians have lost the veteran core of their army. And while they can replace the bodies, they can’t replace the experience.

New recruits are getting five days of training before being sent out.

One American contractor wrote this week, that only 20% of men in one unit he assisted, had the chance to fire their weapon, in training, before being sent to the front.

We also can’t replace the hardware losses the Ukrainians have taken. The tanks, ifvs, and artillery, don’t exist to send to them.

The Ukrainian army will continue to grow weaker over time.

Poland should just say frick it and take a piece out of Belarus at this point. The war is escalating regardless or what the West does or doesn't do. Take the initiative away from Putin and his toadies.

Certainly getting closer and Belarus seems to be the stooge to pop it off:

Claims they will protect Ukraine from Poland
Belarusian soldiers caught digging under the Polish border wall
Belarus offering no questions asked citizenshio to Polish citizens
Belarus digging trenches and conscription
Belarus claiming to have intercepted Ukrainian missiles.

Sounds like the Brits in WWI when they lost most of the BEF before the Somme..
