In the Lyman area Ukraine is attacking basically every town at the same time.
Zooming in, you see Rubtsi, Krymky, and Oleksandrivka.
Yarova and Drobysheve.
Lyman and Yampil.
Note that Ukraine has officially liberated all of this highlighted area as of today.
In the Bakhmut area, Russia expanded their control into these highlighted areas.
In Bakhmut, they have taken a foothold in a residential area in the Patrisa Lumumby street area. They have not captured this residential area, only a foothold.
Near Vesela Dolyna, Russia took control of the electrical substation after 46 days of fighting.
I reassessed Russia's control about Mykolaivka Druha. Russia is attacking Odradivka and Zaitseve.
Around Donetsk, Russia is attacking Avdiivka, Pervomaiske/Pisky, and Novomykhailivka. Those attacks are standard, though. More importantly, They established a foothold on Krasnohorivka.
This is the true extent of their control based on Russian video of their attack.
In the Kherson area, Ukraine expanded their area of control around the Inhulets River.
Here is a more zoomed in view.
In addition to this, Russia is building forces in Rubizhne and in Novohorivka.
There is also weird Russian on Russian street fighting in Kherson
And Ukraine damaged train tracks Near Tokmak and Melitopol.
The American people said “we don’t like inflation!” and had a choice between two presidents.
Option A said their goal was to attack the source of inflation so the economic conditions that lead to rapid rise in costs wont happen again.
Option B said their plan was to increase inflation by at least 50%.
And America voted for option B.
You have to understand the consequences of your actions here. You had one political movement that wanted to shift focus away from corporations and onto the people. You may not have liked everything about the current state of that movement, but the movement existed.
And while it existed, you could have used your votes to influence it, and push it into the direction you liked. Maybe you like x and y but not z. You could influence that.
Sources like warspotting and lostwar withhold losses from their counts when they are not clearly identifiable. Ukraine has pivoted to using heavy bomber drones to destroy vehicles, and posts tremendous numbers of losses per day using this method.
Due to thermals and top down view these losses are only very rarely counted. And when they are counted, it can be many months later when alternate footage appears.
In short, there is not a drop in documented losses, but the methodology used by the loss aggregators is highly conservative and struggles to deal with the types of footage available at the moment. And as a result will lag behind reality.
Kurt Company says they have killed 51 and wounded 57 Russians this month. These guys are situated near Kurdyumivka, and are repelling Russian assaults across the Severskyi Donets canal. I have personally seen about 25 of those 51 killed on video, and I've geolocated around 15.
Ukrainian positions in this area are very well designed, which contribute substantially to their ability to defend. We've seen Ukrainian defenses in other areas, often superior positions, with vastly inferior design and construction fall within minutes or hours.
The main difference you see here is that their firing positions are *above ground* with *interlocking fields of fire* and *trench systems that allow defenders to rapidly displace*.
