Let's look at the daily figures from #Ukraine, estimating #Russia's total losses in #PutinsWar.
Relatively high numbers across in many categories.

Good to see de-Russification starting to happen in all civilised countries now.

Thankfully @CBSNews saw the error of its ways and took down a completely misleading story alleging weapons from the west were "going missing" in #Ukraine.
The @amnesty report remains up though, with ever stronger calls for a retraction and root and branch reform of the NGO.

#Russia claims only "builders' equipment was damaged after last night's strikes on the Antonivskyi Bridge in #Kherson.
The occupiers report "the resumption of traffic is postponed" but they claim no further damage to the bridge itself!

The Antonivskyi Bridge was just one of numerous targets hit across occupied #Kherson during the night.
They also damaged the #Kakhovka bridge near the Hydro-Electric plant in the east of the region.
#Ukraine's Southern Command also reports destroying "several enemy bases"

Meanwhile in #Melitopol' locals reported "at least 16 explosions"
The exiled mayor reports 100+ Russian troops are dead, a lot of equipment damaged by the air strikes. Ivan Fedorov says last week Occupiers moved air defences from the town to Kherson, leaving them open to attack.

An aircraft has reportedly been shot down in #Sumy region, but a couple of kilometres from the border with #Russia.
So far neither side has claimed a strike nor admitted a loss. Cannot tell what type of craft it is either from this video. Time stamp checks out.

#Russia's Prosecutor General has "found that members of #Azov kill children"
That's about the best they can spin for the domestic audience after a pretty disastrous night for the war (not war) effort in #Ukraine!

The @UN boss @antonioguterres has called for #Russia to allow inspectors to visit the #Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in #Enerhodar.
Both sides accuse the other of shelling there, but leaked video proved Russia has moved heavy weaponry into the plant.

#Bulgaria says it is still allowing Russian tourists to visit after all. However there are more stringent criteria and checks being applied, the Bulgarian embassy in Moscow reported.
Upper floors of the Donbass Hotel in #Svitlodarsk in #Donetsk region have been demolished and the attached restaurant is destroyed.
Russia is blaming #Ukraine but at first sight it looks like a misdirected missile, probably from the south, controlled by Russians.

In #Kakhovka plumes of smoke, and a little further south, this in #NovayaMayachka. Locals say the forest is burning, but not known if "Orcs" were hiding there.

#Russia's officials and collaborators in the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia have signed a decree on holding a referendum to join the Russian Federation.
All such votes are of course illegal and (war) crimes in themselves.

Just the four new craters left on the Antonivskyi Bridge in #Kherson
As well as the physical damage (more than it looks) the psychological damage for Russians is much greater. They'd just been told this bridge was protected and also the #HIMARS were destroyed.
They're panicking

He's ordered Lavrov to lead the Russian Federation delegation.

A sight to strike fear into the heart of the invaders in #Ukraine.
A large convoy of #HIMARS was spotted a few days ago in #Romani and only just published, presumably after safe arrival on the battlefield.

Reuters, citing a senior US official says #Russia has suffered between 70,000-80,000 casualties on the battlefield since the start of the full invasion.
That is deaths and wounded. A lot, but significantly fewer than #Ukraine's estimates.

The @UN and @iaeaorg have still not been allowed in to occupied #Ukraine to visit the nuclear plant in #Enerhodar.
The situation is critical with rockets landing near the nuclear material and Russians seen moving tanks and weapons inside the plant itself.

I cannot vouch for the authenticity of this, but it would not surprise me in the least. Indeed, I think most Russians would think it was tame.
