Everything Russia touches turns to shit.

Now that was a close call.

The Russians hauled away the dead in trucks during the night. This is the hotel where Lt. Gen. Oleg Tsokov was killed. The body count must have been substantial.

x “As a result of the strike on Duna Hotel in the temporarily occupied Berdiansk, the active removal of bodies of Russian servicemen by trucks to the local morgue was observed during the night.”

And he destroyed five Leopard tanks with his bare hands.

I especially like how he was shot “several dozen” times but still managed to thwart the enemy. Audie Murphy, move over!

x ...he literally snatched a minute of time from the enemy to give his group a chance to leave, and then.... found the strength to take out a grenade and finish the last battle with honour, undefeated and unbroken.”

Sure.https://t.co/VUx0pDSpjRhttps://t.co/qECrT2rKpY pic.twitter.com/bNxz4HVSMW — KIU • Russian Officers killed in Ukraine 🇨🇿🇺🇦 (@KilledInUkraine) July 14, 2023

Doesn’t look like the guy in the back of the truck got a shot off at the drone.

It’s sad and pathetic when your soldiers are so undersupplied that they have to steal a dead comrade’s shoes.

Big bavovna.

x Ukrainian forces continue to conduct a number of daily rear-area HIMARS/GMLRS strikes on Russian units.

This is likely to be a high-casualty event.

Translation of the above tweet:

interesting observations: with the beginning of a full-scale war, Russia was able to break through the fortifications and slightly shift the front to the west. However, this does not help. Tonight, our defenders greeted the occupiers in the technical school dormitories in the very center of the city with a fairly accurate shot.

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

There are indications that Russia is also running out of small-arms ammunition. Ukraine’s campaign of hitting logistical hubs, ammunition dumps and rail lines behind the lines is paying off.

x 2/ The video below, showing men from Russia's 72nd Brigade near Bakhmut, contains some remarkable testimony. The men say that they have literally only a handful (or pocketful) of ammunition and "2 rifles remaining for 22 people."https://t.co/QJVHUNsS5A — ChrisO_wiki (@ChrisO_wiki) July 14, 2023

x 4/ In another video, relatives say that their men in the Luhansk region are so short of ammo that they have to "go with automatic rifles against tanks ... when ammunition runs out and they don't bring new supplies, you run with it like with a stick."https://t.co/fLd4fqFplC — ChrisO_wiki (@ChrisO_wiki) July 14, 2023

Oh, go on, let the kid load the mortar the wrong way. Let’s see what happens.

That’s a hole in one.

x Update: Ukrainian forces are now training to remove landmines with drone-dropped grenades, as seen here at a training range, a Ukrainian quadcopter drops a NATO-standard M67 grenade into a TM-62 anti-vehicle mine, clearing the local area. pic.twitter.com/BEq0KJvofw — OSINTtechnical (@Osinttechnical) July 13, 2023

When you decide you’ve had enough and make a run for it, but a tree falls on you.
