Latest @DefenceHQ update: #Ukraine continuing to "consolidate" on the high ground over Lyschansak after falling back from Severodonetsk and disrupting #Russia's command/control with "strikes deep behind" the lines. Moscow expending a lot of strategic missiles for minimal returns. 
#Ukraine has managed to advance around Mykolaivka and is keeping #Russia contained around Izyum, including via air operations.

The #US rather impressed with what it is seeing from #Ukraine, a state engaged in what the rest of #NATO has only trained for: a war with #Russia

#Putin's placeholder president Dmitry Medvedev is ranting about "World War Three" again, this time over Crimea. reuters.com/world/europe/r…
Very curious. It is so out-of-sync with every other estimate - including #Britain's own - for the #Russian killed-in-action numbers in #Ukraine that it probably should be followed-up to gain clarification.

#Russia has attacked a stadium in Mykolaiv, a town that is at least near the frontline in #Ukraine, unlike the shopping mall yesterday, which was in Kremenchuk, 300 miles away.

#pt: The town where the #Russians bombed the stadium today, Mykolaiv, comes under regular attacks of this kind. It is what made #Ukraine's President Zelensky visiting the area ten days ago so impressive.

Toll from #Russia's strike on the civilian mall in Kremenchuk yesterday is up to: 18 dead, 36 missing, and 59 injured. lemonde.fr/en/internation…
Interview with Serhiy Volynsky, the commander of the 36th Marines Brigade of #Ukraine's Armed Forces, taken into #Russian captivity when Mariupol fell. One has to assume coercion, though curiously no mention of "Nazis" or "nationalists".

A #Russian Duma member, Andrey Gurulyov, threatened #Lithuania over the Kaliningrad situation and was firmly warned by the #NATO general-secretary that the Alliance has 40,000+ troops in that area "to protect and defend every inch of allied territory" washingtonexaminer.com/policy/defense…
#Russia is systematically stealing #Ukraine's agricultural produce - grain, sunflower seeds, etc. - in the occupied areas of the east, taking it by truck to Crimea, and then (often after mixing with Russian grain) shipping it out, some of it to #Syria. bbc.com/news/61790625

#Turkey has signed a memorandum with #Sweden and #Finland after talks at the #NATO summit in Madrid that set aside Ankara's objections to the two Scandinavian states joining the Alliance. The formal invitation will be issued on 29 June. news.sky.com/story/nato-tur…
Doesn't look like a joyous agreement does it? But whatever works. #Turkey has set aside her objections, and #Sweden and #Finland will join #NATO.
