That's literally the entire point of Russian disinformation.  They want people to believe that NO information can be trusted, and that it is impossible to know the truth.

It should be pointed out that there is an equally good chance that Russia (and/or China) is behind some of the lunacy on the left as well

From lectures/interviews by Tim Snyder, a smarter dude than me.  Worth paying attention to because he’s been trying to raise the alarm that Russia really does intend to implement genocide in Ukraine.
Based on watching a lot of US and Euro news content I think the west still doesn’t really appreciate this reality.  I think we accept the fact that it’s an imperialist war, but not fully that the Russians will destroy everything they can in Ukraine and if they win they’ll kill millions.
The issue of nukes is tied into this.  Maybe the Russians don’t want all-out nuclear war with the west, but I believe that Russia can see nukes as part of the program to destroy Ukraine.
There’s a phrase that goes “first in the mind, then in the mouth, then in the deed.”
Genocidal rhetoric is a predictor or even a prerequisite to genocidal action.  The Russian people are being primed with the idea that Ukraine doesn’t really exist and the so-called “Ukrainians” should be destroyed by any means necessary.  When that becomes a common belief which any Russian can talk about in perfectly normal everyday conversation, it’s a short step to acting on that belief.

If you click the Banderas hashtag, it’s only used by people calling Ukrainians nazis and making fun of them dying. So, that would imply it’s UA getting hit by Russians. I don’t know how valid that claim is since I don’t know where the video was originally posted to telegram or Twitter or by who

Nothing confirmed yet.  Russia claimed (probably erroneously) they were in use a couple of months ago.  However, it may be possible that a limited number were available and used.

Honestly, it really difficult to grasp that more soldiers probably died in Brusilov's Offensive over couple of months than all US military deaths in all our wars combined.  

It's also sobering to realize that while the fronts aren't exactly congruous, the overall length was actually similar, but there were almost 3,000,000 combatants plus almost a million reserves brought up.  By comparison, the current Russian front line is held well below WW1 outpost standards, and in 1916 the advance was on foot.  I honestly can't see Russia holding if there's a breakthrough anywhere.

Info on the Arrow 3 here.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_3

 The Arrow 3 or Hetz 3 (Hebrew: חֵץ 3, pronounced [ˈχet͡s]) is an exoatmospheric hypersonic anti-ballistic missile, jointly funded, developed and produced by Israel and the United States. Undertaken by Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) and Boeing, it is overseen by the Israeli Ministry of Defense's "Homa" (Hebrew: חומה, pronounced [χoma], "rampart") administration and the U.S. Missile Defense Agency. It provides exo-atmospheric interception of ballistic missiles (during the space-flight portion of their trajectory), including intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs)[3][4] carrying nuclear, chemical, biological or conventional warheads. With divert motor capability, its kill vehicle can switch directions dramatically, allowing it to pivot to see approaching satellites.[5] The missile's reported flight range is up to 2,400 km (1,500 mi).[6]



All the pieces are coming together.


I agree. I think Europe is starting to accept the reality that Russian nuclear threats require a response.

I haven’t seen this update card before where it shows % of total. I think those total numbers are generous. For instance, the guy that uses satellite imagery to count tanks at all location over periods of years and recent months figures Russia started with 12,000 tanks. Ukraine says they destroyed almost 4,000 now. The estimate is Russia has about 1,900 active. They nominally have 6,000 in storage with about a third being T-72. But Ru MoD said they can only refurbish at most 9/month. So the storage number is irrelevant compared to the number loss per day is greater than the number restored per month. Plus, the fact they are pulling much less numerous T54/T55 etc seems to indicate much of those T-72 are in shit condition or they lack the needed parts. So the tank percentage should more practically be 66%. My opinion.

Anyone in those woods nearby is having a really bad day.

One thing that some of the before/after drone sequences convinced me of was how artillery hits that look somewhat innocuous on camera are actually horrendous.  The K2 battalion videos on “battle for T-shaped” showed 81 or 120mm mortar hits that didn't seem close enough, or didn't seem to have much effect on exposed personnel, but the on-the-ground video shows everyone there turned into hamburger.

Russian Sources are reporting that Heavy Battles are still ongoing along the Front between the Zaporizhzhia and Donetsk Regions with Ukrainian Forces launching Major Frontal Assaults with “Significant Equipment and Manpower” while additional Forces undertook Flanking Attacks; these Assaults have caused the Withdrawal of Russian Forces from the Town of Neskuchne, which is just to the Southwest of Velyka Novosilka, to prevent their Encirclement by Ukrainian Forces who have since managed to Capture the Town.

I volunteer on this front.
My skills will go way further than my ability to contribute financially.

On this front, there are very few off the shelf options available.


For a kamikaze FPV drone, a larger racing quad could probably work. If they want a pre-built package, that's going to be tough as there just aren't that many COTS versions pre-built. What I'm finding is that even a lot of the parts kits are backordered at least here in the US.

The drone threat from China I think is going to be huge.

Especially for Taiwan; imagine how many Shaheed + Lancet + Switchblade style drones China could produce (thousands upon thousands) vs Taiwans ability to intercept them with a much more finite supply of missiles and autocannons.

⚠️ The water level in the ZNPP cooling pond is stable

Despite the Russian occupiers blowing up the Kakhovskaya HPP dam, the situation remains stable and under control.

As of 06:00 on June 11, the water level in the Kakhovsky reservoir in the Nikopol area is 9.45 m, and in the cooling pond of the Zaporizhzhya NPP - 16.67 m, and this is quite enough to meet the plant's needs.

It is worth reminding that the ZNPP power units have not been operating since September 2022, and therefore active evaporation of water from the cooling pond has not occurred since then.

‼️ Follow the information only on official resources!

UPD: As of 08:00 on June 11, the level of the Kakhovsky reservoir in the Nikopol area is 9.35 m.

https://t.me/energoatom_ua/13509



💬 The water level in the Kakhovka reservoir continues to decline, - Ukrhydroenergo.

As of 08:00 on June 11, the water level of the Kakhovka reservoir in the Nikopol area is 9.35, having decreased by more than a meter in a day, and since the explosion - by more than 7 meters.

https://t.me/ragnarockkyiv/52311







❗️The water level in the Kherson region dropped by 26 cm overnight.

32 de-occupied settlements remain flooded. 2,716 people were evacuated on the right bank. The situation remains worse on the Left Bank. The weapons warehouses of the Russian occupiers were washed away there.

According to the spokeswoman of OK "South", the current is currently carrying ammunition and mines into the sea and to the shores.

Accuracy 10/10
Blast radius 10/10

We need to supply as many of those as we can, not like we will need them on US soil.
that would eat up troops in the open

Yes.  That Twitter account is certainly a Russian propagandist and possibly even a bot.

Unless Russia has been hiding a couple dozen fully equipped and manned BTGs it's going to get awfully exciting soon.

Also, if you want to see how elaborate, meticulously prepared defenses without reserves do in modern warfare...Stealing a page from Russia's own playbook

The Vatniks on Twitter kept complaining about when the Ukrainian offensive was coming.  Well here it is.

They aren't complaining anymore.

You'll also see the association between "Banderas" and "nationalists". Stepan Bandera hated Soviets, so naturally he's a nazi*, and the insistence of portraying people who want their own independent nation as extremists is a pretty big clue about where content is coming from.

*Obviously he was more complex than this, but he was not just a civilian massacring nazi as Russian propaganda asserts.
