Russian forces continued limited offensive operations northeast of #Kupyansk and south of #Kreminna on May 27. Geolocated footage published on May 26 indicates that Russian forces likely advanced NW of Bilohorivka, #Luhansk Oblast (12km south of Kreminna). isw.pub/UkrWar052723
2/ The Ukrainian General Staff reported on May 27 that Russian forces conducted unsuccessful offensive operations near Bilohorivka and Masyutivka, #Kharkiv Oblast (13km northeast of Kupyansk).
3/ A Russian milblogger claimed that Russian forces recaptured several recently lost positions southeast of Bilohorivka, although ISW has not observed visual confirmation of this claim.

1. To defeat the #RussianInvasion IMO #Ukraine needs to destroy the rail and road connections from Western Russia to Eastern Ukraine. They also need to interrupt the Russian ability to arm especially artillery ammunition and tanks. The maps tell me Ukraine may be doing it.
2. I have my Google Earth Pro updated with NASA Firms fires data on a constant feed. I spotted these today. The ones near #Voronezh #Rossosh and #StaryOskol caught my eye. They are all near rail lines and the ones near Stary Oskol are in what appears to be a steel production
3. facility that would be a good candidate for production of the steel blanks that are needed to fabricate artillery ammunition. Here is Stary Oskol. It appears to be a factory near a mining facility. Old-timey Stalinist industry practice of the factory near the mine.

1. Thursday saw #Russian tactical situation worsen around #Bakhmut. Despite #Prigozhin's warnings to the Russian command of the need to reinforce Russian flank at #SakkoiVantsetti, the updated map indicates that Ukraine opened this new line of attack and was already successful.
2. The loss of this key position will allow the Ukrainians to move south towards #Bakhmut over very favorable ground. In preparation Ukraine conducted artillery strikes on #Paraskoviika and #Krasnopolivka.
In the south Wagner moved to reinforce the approach to #Klishchiivka with

3. prisoner and mobilized forces that quickly suffered heavy casualties from HIMARS strikes. While the Russian north and southern flanks continue to disintegrate, the Ukrainians have apparently begun a tactic of falling back, out the the area of expected Russian artillery
Russian forces continued limited assaults along the Svatove-Kreminna line on May 16 and are reportedly deploying additional manpower and equipment from #Belarus to reinforce their positions in #Luhansk Oblast. isw.pub/UkrWar051623
2/ The Ukrainian General Staff reported that Russian forces conducted offensive operations in the vicinity of Masyutivka (about 13km northeast of Kupyansk) and Novoselivske (about 16km northwest of Svatove).
3/ Russian milbloggers continued to claim that unspecified elements of the 6th Combined Arms Army (Western Military District) captured Masyutivka and pushed Ukrainian forces across the western bank of the Oskil River on May 15.
1. #Ukraine continues shaping operations south of #Bakhmut. As the #Russian forces are focused on the center of Bakhmut and seek to advance on Ukrainian forces in the city, Ukraine continues to prepare what appears be a move to surround the seemingly oblivious Russians.
2. Today, Ukraine in control of high ground, commenced artillery strikes on a broad area of the southern Russian-held territory in possible preparation for an advance. By hitting rear areas Ukraine eliminates Russian reserve forces & puts their supplies and ammunition at risk.
3. In addition to the artillery strikes, Ukraine is conducting aerial reconnaissance that resulted in destruction of a Russian anti-air system as far away as #Kodema.

More very damaging losses for #Russia yesterday.
#Ukraine's figures show almost 7% of all destroyed artillery systems happened in the last 24 hours.
Vehicles, fuel tanks and special equipment also above the mean as well as killed soldiers.

The British update today questions #Russia's air defence.
It's always been a problem for Moscow after sending most of its domestic protection to #Ukraine, only to have to bring some back as #Kyiv shows more ability to hit long range targets.

2/ A prominent Russian milblogger claimed that "sluggish" fighting continues b/w Novoselivske & Kuzemivka (13km NW of #Svatove), & that elements of the RU 1st Guards Tank Army have established first lines of defense along the eastern side of the rail line near Novoselivske.
3/ The milblogger claimed that Russian forces withdrew from Novoselivske on an unspecified date because the settlement is destroyed and not worth defending, and emphasized that Russian forces still control Kuzemivka. isw.pub/UkrWar051423
1. The war comes to #Luhansk. Far from the front, Luhansk city has been beyond the range of Ukrainian missiles so it is used for Russian and LNR command and logistics. In the past two days, Ukraine has attacked structures there used to repair Russian weapons and command centers.
2. Russia confirms UK Storm Shadow cruise missiles were used in the attacks. Russia also confirms the Storm Shadow attacks were coordinated with US supplied ADM-160 Miniature Air-Launched Decoy missiles (MALD)s.
2. Developed in the 90s by DARPA these inexpensive MALD decoys can be programmed to mimic any aircraft and create a dilemma for Russian anti-air defense operators who have to commit their dwindling defensive system to pursue harmless decoys while the real attack with Storm Shadow

#Ukraine: Today's new updates from #UkraineWar: 1. At #Bakhmut UA East Command claims they have liberated 17.3 sq km N & S of the city. UA commanders say better weather & arrival of US IFV & weapons have made significant difference. #tweet100 THREAD
#Ukraine: 2. RU forces NW of #Bakhmut have been pushed away from 00506 supply road back towards the #Berkhivske reservoir. In yet another rant, #Prigozhin says UA now threaten the "surrounding of RU in Bakhmut". #tweet100
#Ukraine: 3. UA commanders, contrary to what #Prigozhin said, say it was Wagner troops that fled, NOT RU regulars. RU MOD claimed that its troops were relocating to more "advantageous defensive positions". Reportedly a video of RU troops fleeing: #tweet100
Storm Shadow Strike
The trajectory of these missiles and the fact that they hit so far behind the frontline would suggest this was a Storm Shadow strike.
Preliminary reports claim the missiles hit a military complex outside of Luhansk.

First a strange tale from the far east of #Russia where a private helicopter cut through power lines during a "hard landing"
The Mi-2's landing cut off power to the Transneft station in Primorsky Krai.
It's so remote it took 2 days to find the chopper & the pilot's disappeared!

Fairly quiet again overnight. But a couple of stories inside #Russia's borders to highlight
In #Kursk region there were power cuts after reports of shelling in the village of #Tyotkino
Local officials say 5 rockets from #Ukraine hit the electricity substation in the settlement.

Earlier, #Russia claimed a council building was attacked by drones in #Bryansk region.
The Governor said "a UAV of the Armed Forces of Ukraine fired at an administrative building in the town of #Starodub."
There were no casualties.

S-300 anti aircraft missiles again being used by #Russia to attack civilians, but monitoring groups say one exploded just after launch, before it crossed the frontline.
