These people do realize the Turks control access and they're not letting anyone in, right?

Britain may send warships to the Black Sea to escort ships exporting Ukrainian grain. This is reported by the British newspaper The Times.

According to the publication, Lithuanian Foreign Minister Gabrielius Landsbergis discussed the creation of such a "protective corridor" from Odessa with her British counterpart Liz Truss (the geography expert)

With Liz Truss’ expertise, these warships might end up in Prague’s Vltava instead

Russia is now about 2 km away from Soledar & has reached the Bakhmut-Lysychansk road, pushing Ukrainians into retreat further and further. Bakhmut is getting hammered by Russian artillery with Russian forces now being about 12 KM away from taking the strategic city. Vidrodzhenya has been taken by Russian forces along with 3 surrounding villages that don’t show up on maps. Russian advance continues, Ukraine struggles more and more every day.

For fuck's sake.

Ukro‘s preparing another embarrassment

⚡️⚡️⚡️
Office of the President, together with MI6 and the UK Department of Defense, is preparing an operation to liberate Snake Island. For these purposes, new attack drones received from the United States and Harpoon anti-ship missiles

Might be a non-US shipment, IIRC Canada made noises about sending intact guns.

“The situation is critical, the Russian army is advancing in all directions,” says the Gauleiter (Sarcastic description of the Ukrainian head of military administration) of Lugansk region.

The Russian army is "advancing in all directions at the same time. They are attacking in the Severodonetsk direction, the Gorskoye urban agglomeration from the side of Zolotoye and Yekaterinovka, near Popasnaya from the side of Kamyshevakhi, and Belogorovka," said Gaidai.

The Lysichansk-Bakhmut highway is completely under Russian artillery fire control—the Russian Spetsnaz groups are already "working" there, he added.

Again with Belgorovka...

I've consistently maintained the Russians own a lot of real estate in the area and it seems the Ukrainians agree with me lol

Big Chungus is back. ;)

🇷🇺⚡ Video by the press service of the People's Militia of the LPR from the liberated Svetlodarsk.

The Banner of Victory was hoisted on the building of the city administration.

Russian troops are advancing in the city limits of Krasny Liman, suppressing the pockets of enemy resistance, the reactions of which betray the sense of coming doom. The deployment of Ukrainian reserves has been precluded, and the defense of the city in the face of the advancing units of the Russian Armed Forces loses all meaning.

In the second half of May 24, scattered enemy groups tried to respond in the area of ​​​​the hangars, but this fire was ineffective, the firing points of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were effectively suppressed.

The POWs note that the commanders of individual units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Liman area have been tasked with breaking through in the direction of Slavyansk, where they would join up with the backbone forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

The morale in the Ukrainian units is gravely depressed. The rank and file and junior commanders do not see any prospects for maintaining resistance in conditions when the strongholds are cut off from the main defense forces, which are then deprived of communications and combat control.

With respect to Belogorovka, to finally reiterate my complete agreement with the esteemed @VampireSix, the Allied forces definitely established a bridgehead in the area—while the Ukrainians were cackling and howling about victory and western reporters were taking Instagram snapshots of blown-up Ukrainian tanks and IFVs from kilometers away—and are now ready for a final and conclusive termination of the Seversk supply line.

I would not be surprised if this situation is resolved entirely in the Allied favour over the next 24-36 hours. It is as if the Ukrainians were so astonished their own minor success at the pontoon crossing that they had no idea what to do with it. Nor could they—whatever success they had was purely accidental.

As before, Russians do, Ukrainians talk. The result is evident.

Russian troops control 90% of Krasny Liman—the Ukrainian forces have retreated.

Residents of Krasny Liman report that there is no Ukrainian military personnel on the southern outskirts of the city—they have all retreated toward Shchurovo.

Sources report that, in retreat, the Nazis and the Ukrainian Armed Forces are avoiding main thoroughfares and leaving through nearby forests.

Svetlodarsk Update: After being forced to retreat from Svetlodarsk, the Ukrainian troops took positions in nearby Novoluganskoye settlement, to the west and across the reservoir from Svetlodarsk.

The Allied force are conducting artillery preparation against the positions of the Ukrainian forces, before undertaking the assault on Novoluganskoye.

⚠️ Current situation in Mr. Severodnetsk. The Russian army is conducting an operation to liberate the airport located south of the city center.
