The British newspaper The Telegraph noted the serious lag of the American military in engineering.

The newspaper writes that during NATO exercises in Poland it took the military an hour to assemble a simple crossing from the Vietnam War.

The authors of the publication added that NATO troops, as part of the exercise, covered a 156-meter-long section, crossing the Drawa River in western Poland. The British used the Army's M3 amphibious vehicle, a 24.5-ton truck that folds out into a floating platform. They crossed the river in 18 minutes, leaving the Americans behind.

American soldiers a few hundred meters upstream were still languishing, connecting the pontoons of their bridge, sections of which had last been used in combat in Vietnam.

Zelensky's former advisor Arestovich rips hard:

We are ruled by incompetent moral monsters, stealing on blood, incapable of making decisions, unable to give positive motivation, capable only of tightening the situation, making it worse and worse through incompetence, theft, and inability to give positive motivation, explain people, for what they are fighting, to give hope for the future, and so on. All those who make things worse are those who kill business, persecute groups of thinking and dissenting people
...
That's all. This is a diagnosis. The 2nd Ukrainian republic is over. If it continues to exist for any reasonable time, then several hundred thousand more people will die, and everything will fall apart even more.

It's failed project. First, the ONR, .. failed, and now the 2nd Ukrainian republic, formed in 1991, has failed. If there is a 3rd, more competent one, Ukraine has a chance.

...The only question is, why did hundreds of thousands of people die? For what?

Zelensky announced several waves of offensive by the Russian Armed Forces near Kharkov

The new offensive of the Russian army, which began in the Kharkov region, may consist of several waves, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky told Western media.

Zelensky said that in the Kharkov region, where the Russian Armed Forces went on the offensive in early May, “there was the first wave.” He called the situation there “controlled, but not stabilized.”

He also admitted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have problems with “morale” amid a shortage of weapons and soldiers.

Zaporozhye is almost extinct

A resident of Zaporozhye, the owner of a small mobile phone store, said that there were almost no people left in the city.

“There are no people on the street, no passers-by, no one goes anywhere. Almost no cars. In half a day, only two grandmothers came to see me, although usually by half past two we already accept 10 units of equipment for repair, there are a lot of sales... And I’m not even in the mood to work, to do something, I just give up.”

The girl separately notes that this happened only recently. For two years, everyone in Zaporozhye “was so good-natured, trying to improve life in the city.” Now all efforts have been thwarted, and the city is virtually empty.

In the comments to the video, users write that the same problems are in all major cities. One cannot help but connect this with the entry into force of the new law on mobilization. The Kiev regime, through its actions, is forcing the population of Ukraine to flee the country.

It is reported that the settlement of Bugrovatka in the Kharkov direction was liberated by the Russian Armed Forces.

@Slavyangrad

The situation in Krasnogorovka.

The enemy maintains a presence in the populated area, mainly in a residential area, which is located in the lowlands.

In the east of the village, there are battles near a hunting lodge, where the enemy has set up strongholds and mined the approaches.

West of the Borisovka pond, our assault forces completely cleared the area from the road C051130 and 1st May Street.

The enemy retreated from this area to the west.

The Borisovka Pond area is also under the control of our army.

In the centre, the most active fighting is in the area of ​​the Krasnogorovsky refractory plant.

What areas are critically important for the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kharkov region and why

The “northern” offensive continues to develop, and in the last few days there has been a lot of controversy regarding where it can receive reinforcement, and where, on the contrary, the pace of advance may be slowed down.

What does the “northern” offensive look like at the moment?

Now the Russian Armed Forces group is advancing in the Kharkov region in five different directions. Some of the directions have already been united into a single front line, others, on the contrary, allow the implementation of tactical plans with limited forces in several battalion tactical groups. However, regardless of what plans the Russian army command has in the Kharkov region, several areas are of extreme importance for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

What areas are we talking about?

The first and most important is Volchansk. The main offensive of the Russian Armed Forces is developing there. A large number of drones were used from the territory of the abandoned Volchansk airfield across the territory of Belgorod and other regions of Russia, and now this opportunity has been lost for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In addition, the Volchansk-Bely Kolodez railway line made it possible to maintain a well-supplied group with artillery in this area. After the liberation of the neighbouring villages of Volchansk Staritsa (in the west) and Zybino (in the east), the prospect of a real encirclement of the city loomed before the Ukrainian Armed Forces. Taking into account the fact that the “northern” is actively advancing in the city itself, and the GUR and numerous TrO cannot prevent this, it is not yet possible to correct the situation of the Ukrainian army.

The second direction is Liptsy. First of all, it is important because of its proximity to Kharkov (the Kharkov bypass is only 17 km from there). The village itself is located in a lowland, but from the adjacent heights in the west and east, Russian troops can take fire control of the roads along which the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison in Kharkov is supplied. The Patriot anti-aircraft complex was also located in Liptsy, from which the Ukrainian Armed Forces shot down an Il-76 plane with prisoners who were being transported for exchange. In addition, a convenient road passes through Liptsy and several villages to the south, along which you can, if necessary, get through to Kharkov.

According to the Military Chronicle, the Ukrainian Armed Forces also fear a “northern” strike along the Cossack Lopan - Prudyanka - Slatino line, 20 km west of Liptsy. These villages are also located in the lowlands, like the Liptsy-Kharkov line, but the adjacent heights will allow artillery to establish fire control over the Kharkov supply routes from the north and northwest. In addition, between Cossack Lopan and Kharkov, there is a conveniently located railway line to Belgorod, and the width of the track will allow, if necessary, to strengthen the supply of the “northern” if the decision to storm Kharkov is made. The command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has similar concerns about a hypothetical attack by the “northern” from Grayvoron with an attack on Zolochev in the Kharkov region. There is a relatively large junction station in Zolochiv, and the railway line currently allows the Ukrainian Armed Forces to manoeuvre reinforcements from the Sumy region to the Kharkov region.

The Russian Armed Forces are advancing in the Zaporozhye direction

Various sources report that our fighters are rapidly advancing in the direction of the settlement. Gulyaypole.

The advance of our forces is recorded at a distance of up to 2.5 kilometres.

This is a serious result. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are removing reserves from various sectors of the front and our soldiers are taking advantage of this.
