Ruzzia may start withdrawing troops from southern Ukraine to keep Bakhmut - ISW
Analysts note that the Ruzzian command is withdrawing forces from other regions of Ukraine because of the Ukrainian counter-offensive in Bakhmut. It is known that the Russians recently transferred an indefinite regiment of airborne paratroopers from the Limansk direction to Bakhmutskoye.
At the same time, if the reinforcements already sent to Bakhmut are not enough, Ruzzia will have to risk creating serious vulnerabilities in the Kherson or Luhansk regions or start withdrawing troops from southern Ukraine.

“Now I expect a big offensive by Ukraine in two directions – one towards Bakhmut, and a much more significant one towards Energodar and Melitopol. I think that they have prepared several dozen brigades and will break through the Russian defenses in this region,” he said.

Russia cancels major air show over security concerns, British intelligence says
The British Ministry of Defense believes that the show was probably canceled due to the threat of drone attacks and the international isolation of Russia amid the war against Ukraine.
Organizers were also aware of the potential reputational damage if fewer international delegations attended the event.
The MAKS International Airshow will not take place for the first time in 30 years. It is held every two years near Moscow. The Russian Federation demonstrates its civil and military aerospace sector, attracting customers.

“Impractical, with thin armor”: the commander of the Armed Forces of Ukraine appreciated the French AMX-10 RC on the battlefield
The battalion commander of the 37th Marine Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with the call sign "Spartan" in an interview with AFP said that the AMX-10 RC light wheeled tanks delivered to Ukraine are impractical in an offensive due to their thin armor, but are effective in reconnaissance and for fire support.
As a result of the explosion of a 152-mm artillery shell next to such a tank, fragments penetrated through the armor. On one such occasion, the entire crew died, the Spartan said. “The guns are good, the observation devices are very good. But, unfortunately, the armor is thin and it is not advisable to use them on the front line,” he summed up.
I think that they should be used for proper purposes that is it. Those are not the heavy armoured tanks to break through the Ruzzian defence…

Germany and Poland could not agree on the maintenance of Leopard tanks transferred to Kyiv - Der Spiegel
The main reason is the difference in estimating the cost of the work. The Polish Defense Enterprise Group (PGZ) is demanding more than €100,000 for initial tank diagnostics, while in Germany it costs about €12,000. In addition, PGZ does not want to provide any guarantees for repairs.
A planned repair plant in Poland was supposed to open a month ago, but negotiations between the countries are still ongoing.

✈️ Eight British Hawker Hurricane aircraft from the Second World War were found near Kyiv
🔍The find began with an unexploded bomb from the WWI era found nearby, and there were airplanes further down the ravine. The Soviet army received them as part of a lend-lease agreement, which, according to the Ruzzians, did not solve anything and was imperceptible.
Only for some reason eight planes found in one place and were buried after the war in order to add them to the category of destroyed and not to pay to allied UK. This is evidenced by the weapons and electronics removed from the units. After that, they were taken out of the airfield and thrown into a ravine, where they were buried. Specialists are now disassembling the remains and trying to restore the planes by details.
🧩This is just a fresh example of one small episode within the larger topic of Lend-Lease, which saved the USSR from destruction.
