🇺🇦🧵🗣New update from Kenneth Gregg #UkraineRussianWar (1/12) : "The Russians haven't exactly rested on their laurels, but they are still losing ground in the #Luhansk area. Even their attacks on #Sloviansk have been standing and treading water now for a whole week.---
2:"Their morale and equipment are starting to wear off, it's hot and many of the Russian tourists are still in winter clothes. Now our artillery, with western pieces, has also started to cause panic due to accuracy. ---
3:"According to intercepted conversations between Russian soldiers and their relatives, the infantry soldiers complain about the incompetence of their artillery, many of whom have only had 1 week of training before being sent to the front. ---
4:"It also happens every now and then that the Russian infantry are fired upon by their own artillery.

However, the Russians have had some success at #Holmivskyi. Overall, they have lost more land than they have gained in the last 2 days. ---
5:"However, they continue to shell #Kharkiv and now the population is being asked to stay under cover. Also #Odesa, #Nikopol and #Mykolaiv are continuously exposed to terrorist missiles, again only civilian targets. ---
6:"Our artillery continues the success of knocking out weapons depots and military bases as well as 2 attacks on knocking out the #Antonivka bridge. The Russians are very hot now in #Kherson. Our targets have been in #Melitopol, Kherson, #Skadovsk and #Donetsk. ---
7:"I understand the frustration of the Russians that we can locate their depots and bases and our #HIMARS. We currently have 12 HIMARS in action, 8 more have been promised by the end of this month. Moscow's statements that it has bigger goals than just Donbas show panic ---
8:"...within the political elite. You have to come up with reasons to be able to forcibly recruit and have something to blame the high loss figures on, you can't keep those figures secret for any length of time. ---
9:"Thanks to your reactions to my request for help with some equipment, we have now received, in addition to 31 life jackets, 5 dark visions, 4 drones, summer uniforms, company medical bags loaded with everything needed, platoon medical bags with all contents, 2 cars, ---
10:"... goggles, 280 field rations for 24 hours with heating bags, specially specially designed combat belts, AK-47 optics and other goodies. Thanks to a certain gentleman from Sweden, we have now received a drone on which we can hold our own courses for the crew. ---
11:"On the civil side, the government is now trying to get companies' investments started, they promise support of up to 16 million UAH (4 million SEK) if you set up a production and employ at least 25 people.---
12:"Our company's problem is not sales abroad, but financing. Normally, you have received some as pre-payments, but now nobody wants to pay in advance because of the war. We have continued to keep a high capacity to produce despite all the misery. #SlavaUkraini " /End of report

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Sunday morning update from Kenneth Gregg #UkraineRussiaWar (1/12): "The Russians are eagerly trying to destroy the #Pokrovske and #Vuhlehirsk power stations. Wave after wave has been sent but they have all been defeated. My friend at the Vuhleirsk power station is⬇️
2:"...completely baffled with what the Russians are up to. The Russians have not advanced one meter in the last 24 hours.
{I have given my friend a can of Swedish fermented herring ("surströmming") and they have already had their herring party down there. Got a video which I'll⬇️
3:"...post a bit later as it reveals too much about their position, so for security reasons you'll have to wait a bit. This much I can reveal: they have a military dog and IT liked both the smell and taste of the fermented herring.}⬇️

🇺🇦🧵🗣My 'daily' Kenneth Gregg #UkraineUnderAttaсk (1/11):"Good news from the Eastern Front. Yesterday the Russians tried to break through at #Verknokhaminske, #Bilohdrivka, #Bakhmutske, #Veseladolyna and #Travnerne but were quite easily beaten back.➡️
2:"On the line #Dolomitne-Novoluhanske likewise with the same result. Fighting is currently taking place at the power plant in #Vuhlehirsk and at #Striapvika-Soledar. The quality of their attacks has dropped drastically due to misdirection of their shelling.➡️
3:"A shining example of their misdirected shelling is probably yesterday's shelling of #Zaporizhzhia, 20 missiles fired with MLRS and most of them landed in the Dnipro river. Very expensive fishing! Remember that the main line of defense is not where we are now fending off the ➡️

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Today's Kenneth Gregg report: (1/11) "Tonight, ZHELENSKY has ordered Ukraine's armed forces to liberate SOUTHERN UKRAINE. This means that they consider themselves to have enough weapons and manpower to start the offensive. -->
2:"Remains to make the detailed plans so my guess is that within 2 weeks we have a full-scale offensive underway.
The transport of the new weapons and ammunition has taken place in such a way that the Russians had no clues about it, -->
3:"...which shows the innovation ability the army and private individuals possess in this WONDERFUL COUNTRY.
The Russians are in the middle of a regrouping that is under fire, their maintenance lines are under constant sabotage and they must now get all the equipment they -->

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Another one of my 'daily' Kenneth Gregg #UkraineRussianWar reports (1/13): "Great to wake up to news that turned out to be true: the Russians were coming in full attack with armour and full infantry from Dovhenke, aiming to take a hill in no man's land.-->
2:"The result was like an early Christmas present for us, 35 tanks destroyed or captured by our boys!!! I didn't think it was true at first but it has been confirmed so now we have about a dozen new tanks to use against the Russians.-->
3:"From a purely military tactical point of view this was suicide, actually find this hard to believe. Has someone given orders being drunk or what is the issue?

We are now intensifying the shelling from our side and the Russians are decreasing theirs. -->

🇺🇦🧵🗣️This morning Kenneth Gregg wrote a short report but I've been busy with other issues and could not get it out immediately (1/4) : "Enemy is on fire! So I can compile the events of the night and the morning. A large Russian weapons depot in #Shaktharsk was knocked out -->
2:"...and there is a fierce fire and ammunition is exploding. At Nova Kohovka, there is a fire near the power plant. At Popasna, smaller weapons depots have been found. If the Russians have now taken a break, as they claim, they should dig themselves very deep and scattered. -->
3:"All their major gatherings are reported to our artillery so we can send them delayed midsummer greetings. The reorganization of my first platoon (now called 'Lynx') is advancing and we finally get the much needed experts. However, much bureaucracy still needs to be done.

🇺🇦🧵🗣️Initially a short report from yesterday by my friend Kenneth Gregg #UkraineRussianWar (1/7): "This morning's [July 4th] intense Russian attack has been repulsed and the strengthening of the new line of defense continues. -->
2:"The Russians probably thought that our forces were exhausted when we left #Lysyshansk so they tried a coordinated attack along the entire front.
Our artillery activity has increased significantly, we have met targets that are up to 70 km into occupied territory.-->
3:"This shows that we have started to bring in both new ammunition and artillery. The logistics of the new weapons are simple but ingenious, unfortunately I can not tell you about this, so you who have been worried about this can calmly leave that worry. -->
