1/ The Russian Navy is being condemned as "unteachable" by Russian warbloggers following a Ukrainian attack on an ammunition depot, which is said to have destroyed 5,000 tons of ammunition. They say that the Navy has learned nothing from the war. ⬇️
2/ High-resolution satellite images from before the strike show massive amounts of ammunition being stored in the open air at the 15th Arsenal of the Russian Navy in Petergof, Leningrad region. This Soviet-style practice has led to repeated disasters at Russian Army depots. Image
3/ As 'Alex Parker Returns' comments, "The ammunition was stored outdoors, so triggering a detonation using drones was no problem. Pypa [Putin], here are the results."
4/ 'Military Informant' echoes the criticism:

"Judging by other early high-resolution images, ammunition was simply lying around in the open on the arsenal grounds, which led to the inevitable consequences.

The inability to learn, as it were."

'Ramzai' is scathing:
5/ "Unteachable! After the massive explosions and fires at military arsenals in 2022-2023, when the enemy methodically "took them out" one after another, it seemed the lessons had already been learned and the end of storing ammunition in open-air stacks. But no!
6/ "The naval commanders are learning nothing from their land-based "brothers"! They're so far away from the front! They [the Ukrainians] won't make it there!

They did!
7/ "The result is the evacuation of an entire region. As usual, we'll keep a mournful silence about the arsenal's air defences.
8/ "Under Comrade Stalin, everyone responsible for this arsenal would already be sitting in investigators' offices, dreaming of a "penal battalion." Anything short of being thrown up against the wall for criminal negligence.
9/ "But for today's naval commanders, this is simply an annoying detail. Collateral damage, so to speak. No one will even be removed from their positions..." /end

1/ Why is Russia so vulnerable to Ukraine's mid-range drone attacks? Russian drone developer Alexey Chadayev says that it's due to an ongoing and unresolved series of Russian failures in developing new interceptor drones and anti-drone capabilities. ⬇️
2/ Chadayev asks:

"What's going on?

The balance of the war has shifted significantly in the enemy's favour, not because of any problems on our part at the front—the same positional dragging continues there, essentially."
3/ "Problems have arisen in the rear—due to the exponential increase in the number and capabilities of deep strikes and middle strikes, as well as the focused pressure on our logistics, especially fuel and energy infrastructure.

Why are we vulnerable to this?

1/ Russia faces "tectonic events" in the near future due to Ukraine's seizure of the initiative in the war, which presages an "impending disaster", according to a gloomy commentary by Russian journalist and warblogger Maxim Kalashnikov. ⬇️
2/ Kalashnikov draws attention to the convergence of several unfavourable trends for Russia – economic, military and industrial – which he says are seriously threatening a Russian war effort that is faltering and weakened by chronic corruption, inertia, and backward-thinking.
3/ He writes:

"We are on the eve of a new upheaval. Anyone who studied dialectical and historical materialism ... knows that the number of changes always leads to a qualitative leap. Or a collapse.

War in early summer 2026 is the threshold of the latter. What do we have?"

1/ The explosion in Moscow this morning killed Colonel Damir Davydov, head of the procurement department of the Main Missile and Artillery Directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense, according to VChK-OGPU. ⬇️
2/ VChK-OGPU reports:

"The BMW X3 in which Damir Davydov, head of the Main Missile and Artillery Directorate [GRAU] of the Russian Ministry of Defence, was blown up today belongs to Davydov himself. He purchased the used car in 2024 from a businessman in the Vladimir region. Image
3/ "More than 15 years ago, Davydov headed the Central Testing Technical Bureau at the 51st Arsenal of the Main Missile and Artillery Directorate of the Russian Ministry of Defense, located in the Vladimir region.

1/ Russian journalist and blogger Anastasia Kashevarova is baffled and upset by Russia's apparent helplessness in the face of Ukraine's drone campaign. "They're fighting us, and we're wanking our limp dicks," she complains. "Guys, what are you doing?" ⬇️
2/ Kashevarova writes:

"The enemy is loading UAVs with all sorts of destructive elements. The enemy doesn't care what they use to kill you, as long as it kills you. The enemy is hitting everything that moves on the roads."
3/ "The enemy doesn't give a damn about the elderly, children, women, or Ukrainian politics—the more Russians die, the better.

The enemy is begging other countries for weapons. The enemy is ready to crawl on their knees just to be given weapons to kill Russians.

1/ Igor 'Strekov' Girkin must die, says another Russian warblogger. His missives of doom are not universally welcomed by Russia's 'angry patriots', who don't always appreciate the ideological commitments which underlie his criticisms of the Russian war strategy. ⬇️ Image
2/ Girkin has repeatedly issued warnings about Russia's failing strategy in Ukraine, and the consequences thereof, along with criticisms of the Russian leadership. He is currently in prison for his criticisms, but this doesn't seem to have deterred him.
3/ 'Tulenkov' writes:

"I always read Strelkov's new messages urbi et orbi [to the world] with interest.

He alternates perfectly reasonable arguments with completely insane goal-setting."

1/ Donetsk Airport has been converted into a launch base for Russian attack drones, with hardened concrete shelters erected on the runways, aprons, and taxiways to protect them from attack. More than 130 shelters have been built, along with concrete warehouses and launch pads. ⬇️ Image
2/ Recent satellite imagery shows that, as of 2 June 2026, the following are located on the airport grounds:

▪️130 drone storage shelters
▪️4 concrete warehouses for drones.
▪️Four fixed launch pads.
3/ Construction is ongoing, with 37 new drone shelters built in the eastern part of the airport since April 2026. New air defence positions and unidentified structures, probably also for drone storage, are being built in the central part of the airport.
