This is the stuff that movies are made of and medals of honor are awarded for.

x I was just told that one soldier was lost when the Ukrainian National Guard pulled back from this trench. Everyone thought he was dead. But he survived and was shooting back against russians for 5 hours til the National Guard took back the trench. A hero. https://t.co/T8q3xOikIU — ✙🍒 Constantine 🍒✙ (@Teoyaomiquu) June 22, 2023

Too bad it was only four.

x Update:



A group of Russian army officers was liquidated as a result of an explosion in Mariupol' -- Ukrainian Mayoral Advisor Petro Andryushchenko

Yevgeny Prigozhin has been pushing his luck all along, but this time he is doing it while standing on the ledge of an open window on the 20th floor.

It’s as if he knows he’s dead, so … fuck it.

x The rest of Prigozhin's monologue on which I commented before is in fact far more destructive for the Russian regime.



Prigozhin basically confirms what has been suspected all along. The Russian advance on Kyiv which spectacularly failed in March 2022 aimed for a regime change.… https://t.co/PMmpA6CFwc pic.twitter.com/Nch3luaps8 — (((Tendar))) (@Tendar) June 23, 2023

Speaking of “Fuck it.”

This is coup d’etat talk. Hopefully it’s not just talk.

When your enemies are shooting at each other, get out of the way and let them have at it.

x Channels associated with Wagner report that their camp was hit by a massive rocket attack. According to the reports of Wagners fighters, the attack was inflicted from the rear. Meaning Russian Federation forces would be behind this attack. Needs verification but sounds epic. pic.twitter.com/DMLHpn6hQJ — NOELREPORTS 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 (@NOELreports) June 23, 2023

Yes, but think of all the work you can get done with a couple clones.

x How many Putins are there?



On 22 June, 2023 there has been a mix-up of Putin's doubles, officially noted by the Russian media and on the Kremlin's official website.

Oh, who wants all that land we seized anyway!

I see another goodwill gesture in Russia’s future.

x Russian "military bloggers" started telling their audience Russia doesn't really need the parts of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions it currently controls.



Below is a translation of a Telegram post a Russian blogger wrote.

Remember back in the old days when Russia’s goal was to demilitarize Ukraine?

x The Netherlands signed a contract with the Belgian company FN Herstal for the manufacture and supply of 7.62-mm FN MAG machine guns for Ukraine. The number of machine guns ordered is not specified but the value of the contract is 111 million euros.https://t.co/7NapBlkk7k pic.twitter.com/CSxMkItxgQ — Special Kherson Cat 🐈🇺🇦 (@bayraktar_1love) June 23, 2023

Does this look familiar?

Time to hit it again.

If the Russians are smart, they have abandoned Rivnopil. That probably means they are still there.

x I see no evidence of fighting around Rivnopil in these images. The only fighting I see is south, southeast, and southwest. It could be that Ukraine controls Rivnopil already. Or that it is abandoned by Russians and a gray area. https://t.co/ehIjgobeYl — Andrew Perpetua (@AndrewPerpetua) June 23, 2023

And it’s not even the Fourth of July yet.

There are good reasons not to use cluster bombs — unexploded ordnance being found for years afterward — and good reasons to use them — very effective against massed infantry.

x However, they have not been provided due to congressional restrictions and "concerns about allied unity," Cooper says.



She is referring to the fact that most countries ban cluster munitions. — Lara Seligman (@laraseligman) June 22, 2023

He seems nice.

If he’s so hell bent on destroying stuff, why doesn’t he enlist?

x Is this that great russian culture people are talking about? pic.twitter.com/svObI3n7Uo — Saint Javelin (@saintjavelin) June 22, 2023

-----------------------------------------------------—

War is very glamorous.

NOTE: Yes, this is sarcasm.

And finally, fuck him.
