What are those russians guys ? Conscripts ? No cooperation... Rushing... No dead angle check... Panic and confusion played probably in it but not totally... At least, it's a good thing for our UKR SF friends.

There is rumour that the 47th Mechanized Brigade (known for its Bradleys) is pulled back. @Haiduk, could you confirm this ? Source : https://rochanconsulting.substack.com/p/ukraine-conflict-monitor-12-june

Big men make big targets ! Between the videos of non-respect of the shooting zones and that.... Don't change anything above all... Keep it up Russians you are on the right track... On the next video, they will put a bullet in through their mouth and out somewhere else...

Buy Battlefront to modify all the values of the Russians and make them super bad... Wait... No need, they are already being exterminated by the Javelins, Bradleys and Co

From what I noted, the 47th Brigade does have M2s, but I haven't seen any information that they are using Leopard 2s. They would rather have M-55s. However, the 1st Armored Brigade would also be in the area as well as the 3rd Armored Brigade. It would therefore probably be elements of the 1st Armored Brigade (which has Leopard 2A6s) which would be attached to the 47th Brigade. Just a guess.

https://t.me/pilotblog/4516 From Denys Davydov channel : "Armed Forces of Ukraine launched an offensive in the Zaporozhye region, - The Washington Post. One of the Ukrainian military said in an interview that our fighters really launched a counter-offensive in the Zaporozhye region, but it is not easy, there are "continuous heavy battles." On the video - the first Ruzzian prisoners."

https://t.me/ab3army/2669 From 3rd Assault Brigade telegram channel : "️️️Freeing our lands and clearing the flanks around Bakhmut! During the last day, the Third Assault Brigade pushed back the enemy from territories with a volume of 1.8 km along the front line and 1.2 km deep into the front. As a result of the offensive actions of the 2nd assault battalion, units of the 57th brigade of the Russian Federation and detachments of "storm z" prisoners suffered significant losses: about 30 "two hundredths"; and 40 "three hundred" Russians. Warehouses with Russian BC, equipment, in particular BBM, tanks and enemy artillery, were also liquidated. Thus, the enemy's forces were almost completely pushed back beyond the canal, where the positions of the occupiers were located recently. As always, all the video evidence will be on the Third Assault channel soon. We are moving forward!"

Magnificent ! Beautiful !

No, it's Special Civil Operation

I don't understand why they haven't ripped off all his badges yet (UKR trident etc), not deserving to wear them.

There is lots of continuous informations posted by Denys Davydov on his Telegram channel ! (Mi-26 deployed for example)

Interesting video and for deep defence strategy Pros : • High mobility • small profile (hard to detect) and small target • high firepower (20mm variant & ATGM variant) • ideal for flanking surprise • easy to maintain and refit (and export) • Easy to camouflage (sunflower, crops field etc) Cons : • weak armor → but tank vs tank are not common and Wiesel is superior in mobility in wooded area.

I would have imagined at least 2 artillery battalions and a full battalion of tanks for this kind of action. The fact that they depend on the National Guard (which has a role of "police" and "cleaning") is also to be taken into account I think. All we really have to do is wait. If you find any source etc about them, I'll be interested!

I think this because all the brigades are equipped with wheeled armored vehicles (Maxxpro, BTR-3, Varta, Kozak-2 etc). They seem to favor maneuverability and seem to me (from what I know) rather light in tanks (a simple company) and in artillery (a battalion, often towed (D-30, 120mm mortar etc) to have a real frontal assault role on fortified positions I imagine them more like units of exploitation and clearing (cities, isolated fortified positions, 2nd line of fortifications etc) à la Izium. Moreover they are National Guards units, so probably still light infantry type. @Haiduk will surely know better than me

We already know by conception/doctrine that at least 9 brigades will be in reserve for exploitation (Offensive Guards Brigade). I see them as a modern soviet cavalry/mechanized corps/groups (operationaly speaking)

Personally, I would not have seen a Kinzhal with a cope cage on it for the news, than the ERA-Storm Shadow...
