Ukraine - Russia Conflict

Shortest distance from FEBA to the first line of defence:

Stepove: 9Km
Orikhiv: 7Km
Velyka Novosilka: 10Km

Only 40% of the distance has been covered.
 
Footage of the work of the Russian MLRS "Grad" after the impact of the Ukrainian rocket MLRS Himars. The Ukrainian army, conducting aerial photo reconnaissance with a drone, noticed the Russian installation of the Grad MLRS, after which the Himars MLRS struck with precision weapons. Despite the close impact of the Himars MLRS rocket, the Russian Grad MLRS continued to carry out its combat mission and launched missiles. The crew apparently worked remotely from cover.






A German Leopard 2A6 tank of the Ukrainian army, possibly abandoned by its crew, came under attack from a Russian Lancet kamikaze drone. A kamikaze drone hit the back of a Ukrainian Leopard 2A6 tank where the ammunition is located, judging by the video, the shells did not detonate, but the tank was damaged.






Battle of the BMP M2A2 Bradley of Ukraine in the Zaporozhye region. An episode of the battle with the use of the American BMP M2A2 Bradley by the Ukrainian army has been published. This is footage of a battle dated June 8, when a large convoy of Ukrainian M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles and Leopard 2A6 tanks, as a result of an attack on Russian positions, was hit by mines and hit by Russian artillery. The video is shortened, showing the fire of an M2A2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle and a vehicle of the same type hitting a mine. After that, the Ukrainian soldiers put up a smoke screen and try to evacuate, at which point the shooting of the battle stops.

The Ukrainians are yet to even reach the first line of defence, whereas the Russian killing fields are behind the first line of defence. Meaning, the UAF hasn't even entered the battlefield, they are still fighting the screening forces. Only after the first line is breached will the battle actually begin.

The Ukrainians were carefully testing the ability of each Russian strong point to carry out defensive operations.

The first thing the Ukrainians did was to launch a light engagement to force the Russians to use their ammunition. By slowly increasing the intensity, the Russians are forced to unload their artillery.

Since a Russian multiple rocket launcher system does not have a truck with ammunition following it, after each salvo the whole system has to go to the warehouse to reload, which takes a long time. Then, once all the artillery systems in the region have fired a salvo, the Russians lose the ability to carry out concentrated artillery strikes. It is at this point that the Ukrainians begin to intensify their actions and send 2 or 3 additional assault units.

At the same time, the Ukrainians tracked down the artillery systems. Ukrainian reconnaissance drone operators work with artillery crews, including HIMARS crews, to identify and destroy up to four Russian artillery systems at a time. Due to the lack of artillery support, Russian strong points become more vulnerable, allowing several Ukrainian infantry squads to approach the trenches and take control of Russian positions.

Overall, the most effective way to undermine the Russian fortifications is to create a deficit of ammunition and artillery support by forcing the Russians to unload all their equipment. The first wave of rebuff is the most powerful, as all the weapons are obviously loaded and firing almost simultaneously. Once the concentration of fire diminishes, the Ukrainians have a window of opportunity.

The first line of defence is the most difficult because the Russians are prepared and have plenty of supplies. When the Ukrainians burn the Russian reserves and the default Russian defensive capabilities deteriorate, the Ukrainians will finally be able to consider deep penetration of the front line.

They've reached the first fortification line now. They're likely not to prove significantly harder than the territory already passed. They've already had to do a lot of de-trenching of enemies.

It doesn't sound right, the intensity of the fighting is still low and small scale, so artillery use will still be quite limited in scope.

And both sides are doing damage to each other's artillery, so as more time goes, the UAF artillery will only decrease faster.

Also, the Russians have so many troops and equipment that they are assembling offensive units along the Kreminna-Kupiyansk frontline for a new offensive. They need to retake Lyman and Izyum. This is apart from 100-150k troops already present in Zapo.
 
As per some reports(could be Russian propaganda!), RuAF is using S-70 Okhotnik now against Ukraine. If true then it is going to be almost the first use of stealth UCAV in actual war anywhere in the world.

Series of drawer offensives at brigade level on the Robotyne axis. As soon as the Russian reserves threw themselves forward, the Ukr launched an attack on the weakened zone, which would have enabled some gains to be made.

It should be noted that the KA-52s and VKSs were once again very active.

Zherebansky is said to be partly in Ukrainian hands near Vasssyliska. Less certain is the possibility of Ukrainian infiltration between Myrne and Nesterianka.

The Russian units in the Russian front seem to be well rinsed in his account of the last 4-5 days, but the Russians are continually bringing up reserves.

In the direction of Bakhmut, the Russians reportedly brought in substantial reinforcements.

The Russians themselves have state that they are. The fortifications are not so far from the front in the Robotyne-Verbove area NE of Tokmak. And once they have taken one they can turn it against the Russians.

The UAF is still fighting there. They are yet to reach Novoprokopivka.

There are trench lines to the right that need to be taken to guarantee control of Robotyne. What the UAF has managed to do is push back OPFOR into the trench lines of Robotyne, which is an achievement, but they are yet to take the village.

Zaluzhny has been complaining about the slow progress and blamed it on lack of fighter jets.

Zaluzhny: Ukraine Needs F-16s if Offensive to Accelerate

Valery Zaluzhny expressed frustration that Ukraine has not yet received modern fighter aircraft but is expected to rapidly regain territory from the occupying Russians.

He was also complaining about the Russians having 10 times superiority in artillery, not to mention air power.

Angered by counteroffensive complaints, Ukraine's top general says the expected mission is 'not feasible at all' with just the weapons his army has now | Business Insider India

Gen. Valery Zaluzhny said even though Ukraine doesn't have the air power or strike options it wants, the offensive is still happening.

Now there are reports that Wagner has swelled to a very large number in Belarus, and that the numbers will climb even more. And the Russians are also sending regular troops to Belarus, either for training or an operation. Basically, an army is being assembled in Belarus, for whatever reason.
