I posted yesterday this video, this was Grad salvo. No guided shells.

Exactly a morale booster legend. Pilots of 40th tactical aviation brigade, where Ghost as if served, told this is composite image of all pilots of their brigade and maybe whole Air Forces. So, I suppose "Ghost shot down 40 jets" is more close to real total Russian losses of planes in this war, inflicted by our Air Forces and Air Defense, which a part of Air Forces. 190 shot down Russian jets is totally unrealistic number. This is discussional question either need this legends during the war or not. I think, not.

New update from northern direction of Kharkiv. After liberation of Kutuzivka and Rus'ka Lozova, UKR troops libarated Momotove village next to Kutuzivka. Looks like next step should be big operation for destroying of strong Russian group in Tsyrkuny and around. Reportedly, HQ of this group located in Rus'ki Tyshky village. So minimal objective can be Tsyrkuny, maximum - complete cut off enemy group on the road section Tsyrkuny - Rus'ki Tyshky Our soldier writes, Russians have fortified positions in Tsyrkuny, their tanks have positions in houses or dugged in hull down position. Tsyrkuny area since March is a headache for Kharkiv - exactly from this place Russians still have opportunity to shell the city with artillery, causing damage and casualties among civilians.

Situation around Lyman UKR trops blew up railroad bridge between Lyman and Raihorodok (SW from Lyman). Road bridge still stand for a while. Russian troops assault Shandryholove village

Some news from Kharkiv/Izium areas UKR forces after yesteraday's attack pushed off Russian troops from Rus'ka Lozova north from Kharkiv. Decisive role in seizeng of this large village played SOF units. The map corresponds to yesterday's news that UKR forces in proces of libaration of this village. Now it already cleaned up. On Izium axis Russians today didn't condut active offensive actions, but they actively used recon units and shelled our positions with artilery Our soldier has written from there: we have a madhouse for third day. Russians are jamming GSM comms. There were more rockets for these three days than for all days before. Artilley works endlessly. Orcs rod from all slits, they are being driven to slaugter, but we are also losing good boys.... Several videos from Izium axis from Roman Donik: UKR artillery struck Russian armor near Topolske village UKR Grad hit rear control post of Russian BTGnear Zabavne village (6 km north from Izium). Rear control post is a second control post in battalion's rear, where places all logistic, supply and maintenance units as well as part of battalion HQ, respondining for theese units

Sburke counts only high-ranked officers not less than mayor :). I posted yesterday all appropriate officers from this list

Here another one, such vehiciles were in 93rd mech.brigade since 2019

@sburke @Kinophile Only three apropriate by the rank ) Mayor Nikolay Kolesnikov, unit unknown, signs on the shoulder strips similar to ground forces (except tank trops) Mayor Vasiliy Tynnyi, deputy of company comamnder of Spetsnaz. unit unknown Lt.colonel Eduard Dmitriev, senior officer of combat training department of 2nd guard CAA, Central military district, killed 24th of April. Interesting person. He already participated in the war on Donbas during 2016-2019 probably as a shadow comamnder and even was wounded in 2019. Then participated in Syria operation.

Yes, in the article a video how he shows all this to Russian journalists on the notebook: https://iz.ru/1325501/2022-04-24/byvshii-rabotnik-azovstali-pokazal-vozmozhnye-ukrytiia-natcionalistov?fbclid=IwAR0myOG8mfoJXb_S9rBuiEQEGgxST9xMFYLvrfwuqyjhm78bwiG1daCVykQ Alexandr Chuprin, former chief of equipment maintanence and now traitor.

Damn, I meant battalions ) If BTGs, then 3-4

Russians threw in Izium area additionally about 500 vehicles. Even if this all both combat vehciles and logistic trucks of battalions, this is about new 8 battalions. Dvornikov (or Gerasmov) is worthy heir of Zhukov in a matter "to trow enemy by own soldiers corpses"

This is just text )

I have seen information about it first usage two days ago from other source, but it's impossible to verify it in present time

Yesterday 72nd mech.brigade made a statemant they liberated one village and showed captured Russians .Today General Staff reported UKR troops liberated Kutuzivka village, Kharkiv oblast, mayby this was about it. Citizens of Kharkiv write they are hearing intensive fight on the north, Russian telegram channels write UKR troops try to retake Rus'ka Lozova village (about 5000 of population). Also there is information the Chief of General Staff army general Valeriy Gerasimov arrived personally to Izium area to command offensive operation. Our soldiers writes they hear in radio interceptions Russian officers will gather and rise in atatck all even under threat of shooting to maintain decisive breakthrough in nearest days.

UKR Osa fires at something with unknown result

In this night Russians struck with heavy bombs from Tu-22M3 the place, under which was Azov's underground hospital. Reportedly one bomb, penetrated into the deep and caused partial destruction of the shelter. Surgical room is destroyed completely, there are casualties among injured soldiers and civilaians. Two days ago Azov showed photos from own underground hospital, where was about 500-600 injured. Medical teams still working in this hellish conditions and perform surgical operations. The hospital was deployed here on the second day of war, when was decided Azovstal would became the main base of Mariupol defense and its last stand. Here the photos, issued two daus ago: And in the same day Russian TV showed as Azovstal employee, the engineer, collaborating with Russians, showed to them under which facilities of Azovstal passed underground communications and where the shelters located. Azovstal is huge plant, which bigger than some Ukrainain cities, for example it bigger than Lutsk. So, Russians before this bombed Azovstal randomly. But looks like after this betrayal they adjusted their attacks and achieved some success. Reportedly after heavy bombs exploded, Russian conducted about 50 single sorties with tactical jets and then shelled territory with naval guns. After attacks finished, Ukr troopers became disassemble ruines:

This is not regular Russian trooper. He is volunteer, which fought either in composition of LPR "regular" unit or in composition of new-formed infantry regiment of conscripts.

Yes

Ohio and West Virginia too https://en.defence-ua.com/industries/west_virginia_and_ohio_provide_m113_apcs_in_military_aid_to_ukraine-2666.html I heard about 200 M113 only from West Virginia. This is no problems with M113 more, than HMMWV M998 and Saxons AT-105. Our technical specialits create miracles )

Australian Bushmaster already in service

Two Stugna-P hits from 1st operative brigade of National Guard. Some improved display with color picture, obviously export version

Russian soldier uses GSR 1L111M Fara-VR. This is company level device, but judging of captured personnel lists in many cases the duty of radar operator in company HQ is vacant. On the video soldier detects with this device a group of Ukrainain soldiers and some vehicle in 1000 m - this is current fights on Azovstal and looks like UKR forces even still keeping some armor. He spots marks on display. Fara-VR is upgraded version of SBR-5 (Fara-1) with increased range and lower emission and modernized display. In its turn SBR-5 is modernization of Soviet SBR-3 (and PSNR-5 in vehicle variant), which received display, transforming object signatures to corresponding them marks.

Posad-Pokrovske was alredy liberated long time ago. Real progress is libarating of three willages 9 km east from imporatnt Snihurivka settlement, Mykolaiv oblast. Today Russians conducted attempt to advance on Tavriyske and Nova Zoria villages on the boundary of Kherson and Mykolaiv oblast in 12 km north from Olexandrivka (several days ago this village again crossed to Russian hands), but were repelled.

Too far from Vasylkiv. Maybe it fell in some forest, but anyway this terrain is enough populated. Locals would have already found this alluminium Klondike )

UKR MiG-29 takes off under artillery fire. Data and location unknown. There is some information our jets use highways as runways
