"The hope that Russia might respond by moving troops from Pokrovsk has been supplanted by the realisation that it has not. Ukrainian security sources confirm that while Russia has moved troops from other sections of the eastern front line, it reinforced around Pokrovsk. Ukraine meanwhile redeployed special forces units to Kursk, and is patching up the Pokrovsk front with untested formations. 'The Russians have figured things out and aren’t taking the bait,' complains Dublin." @olliecarroll

"Ukrainian commanders give different reasons for the Russian advance. Some say there aren’t enough shells, with the enemy firing up to ten times as many. Others point to Russian tactics—small infantry assaults, glide bombs, new types of electronic warfare. But exhaustion and manpower issues seem to be at the heart of the collapse. 'People aren’t made of steel,' says Colonel Pavlo Fedosenko. Ukrainian troops, outnumbered 4:1, aren’t getting any rest, he says. Some stay on the front lines for 30 or 40 days at a time, cramped in foxholes inches from death. 'Dublin,' a fighter attached to the 59th brigade south-east of Pokrovsk, knows soldiers who have been in place for more than two months. Two had strokes."

“'We want to bring the war to their territory,' said the commander of a drone battalion in Ukraine’s 14th Regiment who has the call-sign Cold.
Cold’s drone units were among the first troops who entered Kursk and are now hunkered down in the basements of homes north of Sudzha, using their reconnaissance and strike drones to help Ukrainian forces blast their way forward.
He said Russia is putting up a stiffer fight. Earlier this week, it sent a force of 80 men into one of the Ukrainian-held villages, dropping 21 glide bombs on the settlement in the space of an hour in advance of its assault, which Ukraine repelled with difficulty.
'We’re paying a price too,' Cold said."

🇺🇸🇺🇦 Biden Admin to announce a $125 million Presidential Drawdown Authority package tomorrow, per AP reporting.
Why do they continue to drip feed aid to Ukraine? Now is the moment to be stepping on the gas.

US to send $125 million in new military aid to Ukraine, officials say
The anticipated aid comes as Washington works to get a better understanding of Kyiv’s incursion into Russia and how it advances broader battlefield goals.

@MeinSenf4U: If you think that Biden and Scholz care about the profits of the defense industry you live in a different universe. This is the least important thing to them.

@reefandresist: Biden has ample Presidential Drawdown Authority available to him to grant defense articles to Ukraine. This has never been a limiting factor at any point during the last 2 and a half years. Congress has consistently authorized & appropriated more than he asked for, and has pushed him to send more weapons, not less.

@reefandresist @lukacsy @TwiterUser693: Biden does not need to exceed statutory drawdown caps, and no credible or relevant people are making that argument.

@altnecromancer: You need to look at the film again. The dead guy with the grenade was always there and has not moved. Of the two alive guys one has been led away with a small cut in the film.
