Something small and very accurate from Russian MOD.

Volunteers of the Nevsky Front and fans of FC Zenit handed over humanitarian aid to the residents of Pervomaisk.

In total, the activists collected more than 50 tons of food and essential goods, which will be distributed to the cities of the LPR and the DPR.

The British prime minister, Boris Johnson, echoed Stoltenberg’s comments. “I am afraid that we need to steel ourselves for a long war,” he said, adding that it was necessary “to enlist time on Ukraine’s side”.

It came as the new head of the British army said British troops must prepare “to fight in Europe once again”. “There is now a burning imperative to forge an army capable of fighting alongside our allies and defeating Russia in battle,” Gen Sir Patrick Sanders said, writing to his charges about the challenges they face.

The statements suggest the west believes Ukraine cannot achieve a rapid military breakthrough despite the anticipated arrival of fresh Nato-standard arms, while officials in the country have continued to call for rapid help.

Ukraine’s forces remain on the defensive in the eastern Donbas region, where fighting continues in Sievierodonestsk. Serhiy Haidai, the governor of the Luhansk region, said Russia was massing forces in an attempt to take full control of the city after weeks of fighting.

Yes, they care about Ukraine running out of arms and munition. However, they do not care about running out of Ukrainians...

Attention. Translated from Ukrainian channel:

Colleagues, unfortunately, the Office of the President is now driven into a classic zugzwang, when any decision carries risks for the authorities. The losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are constantly growing in the Severodonetsk loop, and the supply of weapons from the West is not able to turn the tide.

German military assistance to Ukraine remains paltry. Berlin reportedly failed to meaningfully supply Ukraine with any weapons in April and May and has yet to deliver a single heavy weapon since the start of the war. Although a few major systems are expected to reach Ukraine later this summer, the real prize—an advanced anti-aircraft system—won’t deploy until this fall, at which point German intelligence assesses Russia may have already completed its conquest of the Donbas. The scuttlebutt in Berlin is that this is intentional: Scholz does not want footage of German equipment engaging Russian forces to be published.

Heavy bombardment of Donetsk city center 18 June 2022

Why is it still "Special Operation"? That's why. This is a queue of Melitopol residents for Russian passports. @TrFormer

— Lithuania blocked goods sanctioned by the EU from reaching Kaliningrad
— Russia accused the NATO state of being 'openly hostile' and provoking Moscow
— Kremlin loyalists claim it is an act of 'direct aggression against Russia'

The Russian foreign ministry said: 'We consider provocative measures of the Lithuanian side which violate Lithuania's international legal obligations, primarily the 2002 Joint Statement of the Russian Federation and the European Union on transit between the Kaliningrad region and the rest of the Russian Federation, to be openly hostile.'

Chilean blogger and writer Gonzalo Lira, who was kidnapped in mid-April and held for a long time by the Security Service of Ukraine, published a video on his new channel. His previous account was taken over by the SBU.

In the video, he said that Ukraine is suffering huge losses, and the official Western media are hushing it up. The journalist is sure that NATO is provoking Russia into a conflict with Lithuania and Poland because of Kaliningrad. And the Biden administration is fuelling it. He also expressed concern that the US might use nuclear weapons. Telegram channel "Every 30 minutes" has collected a cut of the stringer's main quotes.

Recall that Gonzalo Lira is one of the few Western journalists who dared to speak openly about the atrocities of the Kyiv regime. Since the beginning of the special operation, he has been covering the fighting and talking about the situation in Ukraine.
