This is probably air defense rather than a Storm Shadow.

They have begun sending letters to people’s homes already.”

So … Ukrainian refugees are getting sent back?

🚨‼️ Russian units counterattacked Rabotino yesterday.

The Russian army was able to push the AFU back out of Rabotino. The previously lost southern outskirts are returned.

This happened during a rotation and assault preparation of the AFU. Which was disturbed and canceled.

Since Rabotino is essentially a killing field with no intact buildings, Russian units went back and took their position in the southern outskirts.

The village is in the grey zone again.

All this hype again for 0 progress. Zoom out and look at the progress over a period of time.

There is none, nothing strategically significant.

✍️⚡️The situation in the Bakhmut (Artemovsky) direction on 09/06/2023 - analysis from @Multi_XAM

Contrary to expectations, against the backdrop of a decrease in the intensity of fighting, the enemy resumed attacks in the Kleshcheevka area. Pro-Ukrainian publics report that 80% of the settlement is controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which is not true. The situation escalated on September 5, simultaneously with the offensive in the South-Donetsk direction.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine always strive to hide the direction of the main attack. If everything is clear with Novodonetsky - they are rushing to Volnovakha in order to cut the Donetsk-Mariupol highway, then no definitive actions are planned in the Bakhmut area. There is no necessary potential for this, and taking it will give Kyiv nothing but a media effect.

As a result of counterattacks over the past 2 weeks, we managed to squeeze the enemy out of Kleshcheevka and regain control over part of the heights west of the village. It cannot be said that we control Kleshcheevka, rather, most of it is under our fire control, which does not give the Armed Forces of Ukraine a chance to gain a foothold here. The eastern part is behind us.

The enemy is trying to stretch our advanced forces, due to strikes to the south - on Andreevka and Kurdyumovka by the forces of the 28th mechanized brigade, militants of the Belarusian Volunteer Corps, acting with support, 3rd Assault Brigade "Azov" and 3rd Tank Brigade. Conducts constant reconnaissance of our positions ( https://t.me/multi_XAM/755 ).

Northwest of Kleshcheevka, the enemy created supply problems for us by destroying the crossing over the canal, and continues to keep this area under fire control by increasing the arm for the supply of ammunition. It is possible to restrain the activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in this area due to regular air strikes of the Russian Aerospace Forces on the front line.

On the northern flank - southeast of Soledar - the enemy does not abandon attempts to establish control over the T-13-02 highway. However, in general, the situation in this area is stable. According to the Kirpichi VP channel , positional battles continue in the Berkhovka area ( https://t.me/kirpichiOP/3352 ), where our units partially pushed the enemy further south to the reservoir.

This is about where I would expect most AFU vehicle losses to start piling up, it's entering the effective range of Russian direct fire weapons and I believe this is confirmed as a Kornet kill.

This is by the way why most fighting further south is just Ukrainian infantry - they're the leading edge of the assaults.

I pointed out on Twitter earlier that the earlier Ukrainian mass surrender north of Klescheevka likely handed the Russians a portion of the dominant high ground to the west of town, rendering any gains in the town itself unsustainable. Quite a clever tactical maneuver.

Why the hell does everyone think my handle is Armchair Warrior.

At this stage in the war there are teenagers online doing better analysis than the CIA.

💥💬💥 "Where do I click here?"

The UK press is ironising that another buffoon who doesn't even know how to hold a gun in his hand has been appointed to head the Ministry of Defence.💥💥💥

This is classic cart before horse stuff and emblematic of Western decisionmaking throughout the Ukrainian War - how about get into a position where the resumption of the infamous Grain Deal(tm) is a realistic possibility first and then go talk to Lloyd's about insurance instead of wasting everybody's time planning the details of a scenario that will never happen. Because right now the only grain leaving the Black Sea is Russian.

According to Julian's employers, people living in the LDPR and even the Crimea are Ukrainians. So he's even wrong on his own terms.

Austria will not extradite Ukrainian men of military age if Ukraine makes such a request , the country's Interior Ministry told Exxpress.

"It would be a massive encroachment on our statehood, we would never have done this," the ministry said.

According to the publication, there are 14,000 Ukrainians of military age in Austria.

DeepStateUA's geolocation project - which did indeed show Ukrainian forces is mainly still stuck at Robotyne and some distance to the east of Novoprokopivka.

Of course, its unknown when was the latest update for the above (nor the range of date). But it does show that DeepState's mapping is highly accurate - and that DPA's mapping as a result is also largely accurate
