🇺🇦🇩🇪Germany again postponed the shipment of weapons to Ukraine.
The transfer of modern M270 MLRS and Iris-T air defense systems to Kiev will not happen before winter, writes German Business Insider.
Berlin quickly found an explanation for the new transfer of delivery — "systems need new software."
Naturally, this can only be corrected at German enterprises.
On the eve it turned out that Germany has been almost not helping Kiev with weapons since the beginning of May and is blocking any possibility of its transfer to Ukraine.
The response to the "liver sausage" was not long in coming.

Russian servicemen delivered 100 tons of humanitarian aid to civilians of the Kharkiv region.
These are food and basic necessities.
The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation stressed that humanitarian aid delivered from Russia, between, and often during the shelling, is carried around the blocks, and then to basements and shelters.

Attention, that is from the Ukrainian inform agency UNIAN:
During a full-scale war, Germany increased imports from Russia by almost 60%.‼️
At the same time, the trade turnover between Ukraine and Germany decreased by 11.8%.
Ukrainian Ambassador to Germany Andriy Melnyk said that during the full-scale war of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, Germany significantly increased imports from the aggressor country.
"This is crazy. Despite the Russian war of conquest, Germany increased imports from Russia by 60% in January-April 2022 and transferred almost 6 billion euros more to Moscow," he said.
Melnik referred to the data of the Eastern Committee of the German Economy (Ost-Ausschuss der Deutschen Wirtschaft - ECGE) - a major regional economic initiative.
It also follows from the ECGE data that during this period, exports to the Russian Federation decreased by 26.6%.
Contrary to this, the Russian Federation is in third place in terms of trade volumes. The largest trade turnover of Germany in this period was only with Poland and the Czech Republic.
Trade turnover between Ukraine and Germany in the same period decreased by 11.8% (import fell by 5.4% compared to the previous period, export - by 15.7%).
As UNIAN wrote, in early February, the media reported that after the occupation of Crimea, German companies continued to massively supply goods to Russia that can be used for military purposes, with the approval of the federal authorities and contrary to EU sanctions.

LUGANSK, June 10 - RIA Novosti. Blocked at the Azot plant in Severodonetsk, the Ukrainian military are trying to set conditions for their exit from the factory, said Rodion Miroshnik, Ambassador of the Luhansk People's Republic to Russia.
“A small group of Ukrainian servicemen on the territory of the Azot chemical plant can no longer leave the enterprise. All retreat routes are cut off for them. Individual representatives of the militants are trying to get in touch with the allied forces and put forward some conditions. They are explained that no conditions will be accepted. Only the laying down of arms and surrender. They are sent to think," the diplomat wrote on Telegram.
He added that there are civilians on the territory of the enterprise, but their exact number is unknown. Some of them find an opportunity to contact their relatives, they confirm that they are alive and hide in bomb shelters.
The day before, Mikhail Mizintsev, head of the National Defence Control Centre of Russia, said that servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine forcibly kept "hundreds of residents of the city and employees of the enterprise" in the underground facilities of Azot. The nationalists have mined tanks with nitric acid, ammonia and ammonium nitrate, which they are going to blow up during the retreat.
As Miroshnik reported on June 8, the Severodonetsk airport has been cleared of the Ukrainian military, they retain control over only a small part of the Azot plant.

MOSCOW, June 10 - RIA Novosti.
An explosion occurred near the administration building of the head of the DPR in the Voroshilovsky district of Donetsk, RIA Novosti correspondent reports.
The authorities of the republic reported that there were no casualties.
Eyewitnesses said that two shells exploded in the city, one of which hit the top floor of a residential building.
According to the leadership of the DPR, the Ukrainian security forces "purposefully hit the administration building with cluster munitions."
“There was a rather serious arrival (Donetsk slang for incoming shells). As I understand it, not all of the cassettes worked. (Cassette munition is banned by the international treaties in populated areas) <...> I think that the goal was the administration of the head of the Republic. It’s not safe anywhere in the city now,” said Yan Gagin, adviser to the head of the DPR government.
Donetsk Mayor Aleksey Kulemzin said that "there are reasons to believe" that foreign weapons were used in the shelling. Presumably, three shells of NATO calibre of 155 millimetres were fired.
In recent days, Donetsk has been repeatedly shelled by Ukrainian troops, including with the use of howitzers supplied by Western countries. Today, the DPR representative office at the Joint Centre for Control and Coordination of the ceasefire recorded shelling of the Kirovsky and Kuibyshev regions, including from Grad multiple launch rocket systems.

Sky News TV channel told how Western arms manufacturers are cashing in on the conflict in Ukraine.
NATO countries have already sent more than $8 billion worth of military equipment to Ukraine, and Europe wants to spend another 200 billion euros on defence, the channel reports.
“Combined with the role of the conflict in increasing military spending, this will bring windfall profits to Western arms manufacturers,” states Sky News.
Experts from the Stockholm Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) note that most of the weapons go to Ukraine from old military stocks, which the West has begun to replenish with new weapons. The United States allocated $9 billion for this.
US defence contractors such as Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman will benefit the most. They are already receiving multi-million dollar contracts to replenish arsenals in the United States and allied countries.
For example, the Stinger MANPADS were handed over to Ukraine, in addition to the United States, by the governments of Denmark, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania and the Netherlands. Against this background, Raytheon has already received a 625 million contract to replenish their stocks.
In Europe, the publication names the British company BAE Systems and the French Thales as the main beneficiaries of the conflict in Ukraine.

The US State Department is conducting a large-scale anti-Russian campaign: Moscow is taking measures
10/06/2022 - 4:30
"The resources of the US State Department and Internet services for mass sending emails to Russian citizens containing fakes that discredit Russian military personnel and a special military operation in Ukraine will be blocked," said following a meeting of the State Duma Commission to investigate the facts of interference of foreign states in Russia's internal affairs its chairman Vasily Piskarev.
Vasily Piskarev noted that measures are being taken to counter the anti-Russian propaganda campaign of the US State Department.
“The commission has studied the materials of the US State Department released by the Russian Foreign Ministry, which contain an appeal to the citizens of the United States and Europe to join the anti-Russian propaganda campaign.
To do this, electronic resources were created that allow an unlimited circle of people to carry out the mass mailing of fake materials about the special operation to the Russians.
Such actions, in fact, are complicity and incitement to commit the public dissemination of knowingly false information about the use of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation,” the head of the Commission emphasized.
Vasily Piskarev said that, at the request of the State Duma Commission, the Prosecutor General's Office of the Russian Federation conducted an audit, one of the results of which was an appeal to Roskomnadzor (Russian supervising body) demanding that measures be taken to restrict access to information from the US Department of State about the anti-Russian campaign and Internet services created to send millions of provocative emails and SMS messages to Russians.
Information resources advertised in letters containing fake information will also be blocked.
“Large-scale forces and means have been involved in organizing the anti-Russian campaign.
In particular, to achieve the greatest effect, they involved professional psychologists who studied the peculiarities of the perception of Russians, as well as large media such as Time magazine and the BBC, educational and scientific centers, in particular the Harvard Institute of Public Administration named after John F. Kennedy and a number of others," the parliamentarian said.
“Everything is being done to sow panic in society and distrust in our Armed Forces and the leadership of the country, to discredit the special military operation. All cases of such actions are recorded, they are given a legal assessment. We have already submitted a package of bills aimed, among other things, at curbing such actions. The Commission will continue to work on improving the legislation on the protection of the sovereignty of the Russian Federation.”

From my "favourite" Daily Mail:
Moscow's authorities in occupied Kherson are about to hold a referendum on integrating with Russia, mirroring a controversial vote in Crimea in 2014, and have announced the Russian Ruble would now be used in the region.
Meanwhile Ukraine's deputy head of military intelligence Vadym Skibitsky warned today that the [Ukrainian] military are running low on munitions and called on Western allies to deliver more.
'Everything now depends on what [the West] gives us... Ukraine has one artillery piece to 10 to 15 Russian artillery pieces - we have almost used up all of our ammunition and are now using 155-calibre NATO shells,' he told The Guardian.
Ukraine is expected to provide a list of weapons and defensive equipment it requires at a meeting with NATO in Brussels on June 15, following US President Joe Biden's promise of advanced rocket systems and additional munitions last week.
Belarus also raised alarm bells this week when President Alexander Lukashenko and his advisers said the country's military presence along the Ukrainian border would be reinforced and announced a series of new 'military mobilisation exercises' - moves eerily reminiscent of the build-up of Putin's troops in western Russia in the weeks prior to the invasion on February 24.
US think-tank the Atlantic Council warned Belarus' military scale-up represented an transition from 'peacetime to wartime' and boosted speculation over a 'renewed cross border offensive'.
If Belarusian forces were to join the conflict and invade from the north, Ukraine's army would be forced to regroup and deploy across two fronts, stretching its defences dangerously thin.

This position was voiced to Belgrade by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz before negotiations with the Serbian leader.
▪️"Kosovo and Serbia must reach an agreement on mutual recognition, because two countries cannot become part of the EU without recognizing each other," he said.
Another requirement of Scholz is the imposition of sanctions against Russia, because "states aspiring to the EU should join the anti—Russian restrictions."
Both ultimatums cause bewilderment in Belgrade, Serbian President Vucic said.
A good start to negotiations.
