Muscovites celebrate the liberation of Kharkiv Oblast:

Moscow street closures are for planned celebration of Moscow founding anniversary, including a big fireworks show this evening. No doubt the irony of this big celebration will not be lost on at least some “celebrants.”

Another highly symbolic video:

Looks like UKR have the high ground south of Izium:

Better quality video of that Russian tank getting ATGM’d. It was not a T-90M. Probably T-64BV.

After showing up there this morning to assure us everything was under control and there was no panic, WarGonzo Pegov finds himself really needing to very quickly leave Izium in the evening:

Seems like a call intercept from inside the Izium pocket: The "Corps" that is finished may refer to Kaliningrad's 11th Army Corps.

Looks like they also captured a Zoopark-1M counter-battery system:

oh dear...

It looks like the bridge decking has collapsed to either side of a pair of intact columns. Odd way to do intentional demolition, but also not what we have seen with HIMARS strikes on comparable bridges (Dariivka bridge is similar in size, I think).

And maybe last road out of Izium is already cut?

Just a reminder. The last road out of Izium:

Retired Major, died as a volunteer.

Almost certainly not the same guy. Also, putting on a Lt. Col. uniform to avoid being captured as a Lt. Gen. would be a weird gambit.

This Humvee assault was originally posted as from Kharkiv, but is actually from Kherson front. Also an additional clip:

Video is from Borivske, between Shevchenkove and Kupyansk.

The front turret ERA on the T-80BVM curves. However, T-90A and T-64BV front turret ERA also have straight lines without curve or steps. Left to right T-72B3M, T-80BVM and T-90M:

@sburke @Kinophile Maj. Alexander Nakonechny, unit unknown:

Radio tower at 49.42623° N, 37.44724° E, ESE of Buhaivka:

Something flies under barrel closer to tank in frame before this. I added screens in my post above.

It gets hit in side by something coming in from left that passes below the gun barrel. My guess is Stugna-P or other tandem ATGM. T-90M does not have separated ammo and blow-out panels for main reloader carousel. It only has a separated turret bustle compartment for a small amount of additional ammo for reloads out of combat (can only be accessed externally). 1. 2. 3. Warhead detonation and something odd appearing further back from tank (missile body? some result of ERA?)

Same Humvee, but from gunner’s position instead of front passenger.

Ukrainians assaulting a village in Kharkiv on Humvees:

Has there even been a rumor of Sen’kove falling? Also, any read on bridges still up on the Oskil R. / Reservoir? As I recall the dam and crossings south of it were destroyed in the previous fighting. Have any been restored, or only replaced with pontoon crossings?
