Latest @DefenceHQ update: #Russia continues to suffer "combat fatigue and high casualties" in #Ukraine, leading to low morale and "discipline issues". Problems with pay is a big issue for the Russian Army, as well as lacking basics like food, arms, and even uniforms. 
Great map by @bradyafr of #Ukraine's use of HIMARS to ravage #Russia's logistics system.

Harrowing report from the Donbas of the daily toll #Russia is inflicting on #Ukrainians, with its relentless artillery fire and the mines it has scattered everywhere. The Russians have also brought life to a standstill: no schools, no workplaces.

Eddie Dempsey, the former general secretary of the National Union of Rail, Maritime, and Transport Workers (RMT), has been an overt supporter of #Russia's invasion of #Ukraine and associated narratives since it began in 2014.

#Russia has tried to get around the HIMARS strikes from #Ukraine against the Antonivskyi Bridge in occupied Kherson. Looks like the workarounds are now being targeted, too.

In Tokmak, Zaporizhzhia Oblast, Maksym Mahrynov, a #Ukrainian guerrilla, blew himself and two #Russian soldiers up when the Russians came to his house, accusing him of helping direct Ukrainian fire. Witnesses said his last words were: "Glory to Ukraine". t.me/riamelitopol/6…
An echo of the barrel bombs #Russia's ally in #Syria used on civilian areas in these shrapnel-filled explosive devices the Russians are dropping on #Ukraine.

#Ukraine's President Zelensky spoke today with the #EU president about the next tranche of aid for the economy.

.@the_ins_ru published a video showing #Russia firing an MLRS near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant in #Ukraine on the night of 2-3 September.
#India's behaviour towards #Russia has called into question the efficacy of the Quad. Moscow and #China are not separable threats; enabling one is enabling the other.

It is less a contest between Mikhail Ulyanov and #NAFO. More a matter of when he realises the game is up and deletes his account.

Interesting thread on #Russia's weaponry.

Have a feeling #Russia is going to regret creating this symbol
A helpful corrective to that gross mural #Russia's supporters put up to troll #Ukrainians in #Australia.

An intercepted call released by #Ukraine shows a #Russian soldier complaining about how new Russian recruits are thrown into this war without proper equipment. t.me/DIUkraine/1254
The failures on even the basics by #Russia remain pretty shocking.

#Italy's Lega Nord leader Matteo Salvini continues to advocate #Russia-friendly policies.

#France's President Macron says the #EU's policy over #Ukraine must not follow the policy of "the most war-mongering types" (i.e. the Baltics, Poland), since this would "risk extending the conflict and closing off communications [with #Putin] completely". What a disgrace.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov says #Russia is ready for negotiations again, though the "special operation" is "being conducted as planned" and Moscow's "conditions" (i.e. war aims), which are the total conquest of #Ukraine, remain the same. pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/…
In #Germany, about 2,000 pro-#Russia demonstrators, mostly émigrés or descendants thereof, gathered in Cologne to demand that Berlin cease even the tokenistic support it has so far given to #Ukraine and call for the opening of Nord Stream 2. reuters.com/world/europe/r…
#Ukraine's President Zelensky said in his nightly address that three settlements had been liberated from #Russia's occupation. He did not give details, but said one was in the east, in Donetsk, and two were in the south (i.e. Kherson; one is Vysokopillia). au.sports.yahoo.com/ukraine-libera…
Olena Zelenska, the wife of #Ukraine's President, says in an interview with the BBC that, among other things, she speaks with her husband every day, she rarely sees him. Asks that it be remembered what we count in money, Ukrainians count in lives. bbc.com/news/uk-627669…
Some acknowledgement from #Russia's supporters that #Ukraine's counter-offensive is making some headway.
