Any reports on Ukrainian casualty rates?
If I understand correctly, Ukraine has mobilized ~1mil troops atm, with general mobilization continuing til November this year.

>>353380
>1mil troops atm
That's propaganda. Think about it, from where Ukraine is going to get 1m uniforms, 1 m helmets, 1m rifles, 4 million meals a day... it is all BS.

>>353382
>4 million meals a day
america moment

Extremely rare Syria Shitmupdate
The main point of focus is the infighting between Nusra and FSA has resumed with Nusra marching into Afrin itself and taking over several localities

>>353963
How did the Turks let this happen? I'm surprised the Salvation Government hasn't been dealt with yet.

Ukraine Shitmupdate
This time, it features ROADS
>no changes that I can see, just has roads from now on

Ukraine Shitmupdate
Ukrainians make medium-scale advances into Luhansk oblast from Kharkiv, and secure a small village on the Kherson-Mykolaiv border near Snihurivka

I think we are seeing the ZOG's plans playing out that Israel want's Syria and they will use ever American and British solider to do it.

Congo Shitmupdate
M23 rebels take control of Rutshuru and Kiwanja, doubling their territory (but that's not much at all)

Pakistan is really going over the edge, I'm giving a +50% chance of civil war within 2 months.

Why does anyone give half a fuck about the Congo? It's just a bunch of tribal negroes killing each other like they have for thousands of years.

Probably mineral resources + geopolitical chess.
China seems to think they're worth colonizing.

>>355379
Rwanda might go in again, which would be very exciting.

>>355380
China loaning money to niggers in return for nigger land is too slow. China should bribe niggers to get spayed and neutered like cats and all niggers should be sent to work camps that make Aushwitz look like a fucking spa.

>>352342
The battle for Bakhmut is still trudging along at a snails pace.
The foothold in the industrial zone has been abandoned/lost, probably due to the ukrops blowing up the bridge to central Bakhmut, lowering the strategic value of entering Bakhmut on the eastern side of the river: >>352589
I haven't seen much of anything in the Kurdiumivka direction but the Russians are still battling in the south and south-east of Bakhmut along the Bakhmutske river.
Here is a video of the Russians in the heights S/E of Bakhmut and in Ivanhrad (a chain of cottages parallel to Opytne (a village/suburb in Bakhmut) on the eastern side of the river) showing Opytne and Bakhmut in the background:
https://twitter.com/Taurevanime/status/1589421103499579393
On the western side of the river, Odradivka has been under Ru control for quite some time but the situation between it and Opytne is unknown for now. I'd keep my eyes on this area though.

The Russians are leaving Kherson, the Dniepr river will be the dividing line.

Ukraine Shitmupdate
Russians abandon Kherson and everything west of the Dneipr, with the Ukrainians moving in behind them.

There was a recent hit on a port in Yemen by Houthi over oil money, this plus expiration of ceasefire deal is leading me to believe they want the war to restart but don't want to be blamed for doing it. Expect offensive operations to start within next 2 months when they can find a good enough excuse.

Video of Wagner storming trenches around crossroads on S/E outskirts of Bakhmut
https://twitter.com/200_zoka/status/1592239609031053312
Ukrop MTLB fleeing the location was targeted with ATGM
https://twitter.com/200_zoka/status/1592231134183985152
Wagner also took trenches at the garbage sorting plant further down the road:
https://t.me/news_1tv/16161
This puts the Russians real close to the dam.

>>355797
On the southern end, on the western side of the Bakhmutovske river, Mayorsk has been captured (for real this time).
https://twitter.com/mdfzeh/status/1592212704974213120
This advance paired with week old reports of Ru forces capturing trench strongholds along the road between Mykolaivka and Mayorsk means the road from Horlivka to Bakhmut (Opytne) theoretically is under Russian control, albeit still under partial UA fire control. The Russians will need to expand the buffer zone along the railway, towards the water canal and preferrably capturing Kurdiumivka (which is still under ukrop control) to enable mechanized forces an easy entrance into the southwestern environ of Bakhmut.

Ethiopia Shitmupdate
It's been a while and the situation is as stands:
Ethiopia and Eritrea launched joint invasion of Tigray region, leading to them seeking peace
Oromo revolts aren't nearly as widespread as previously portrayed

Overall, Ethiopia is looking a lot more stable now... for now.

>>355798
Andriivka, Ozarianivka and Zelenopolie captured by Wagner, Kurdiumivka likely already captured as well.
Next step is Klischiivka.

Remember Siversk front?
Spornoe reportedly captured, though from what i can see from this report, it's only the eastern part with a few cottages:
https://twitter.com/mdfzeh/status/1597235147061235712

The United States has reduced the number of patrols with the Syrian Democratic Forces in northern Syria because of Turkey's strikes in the region, the Pentagon says. No U.S. troops redeployed so far ahead of a feared a Turkish ground invasion. https://twitter.com/idreesali114/status/1597657825949671425?s=20&t=Wk27ugZraXfbM503P_rAxg

>>356204
Kurdiumivka confirmed to be captured and Wagner are making progress into the Opytne neighborhood of Bakhmut city.
Furthermore, they control the intersection northeast of Bakhmut and have been trying to enter the city from that direction (seemingly without success).
There was a very ambitious report on Monday that the ukrops left Klischiivka and that the Chasiv Yar-Bakhmut road was under fire control. I have to hold (x) on the ukrops giving up the area between Klischiivka and Chasiv Yar on account of it being so heavily fortified though, maybe they left Klischiivka (which is in a river valley) for the heights overlooking it like they did in Kodema ( >>350643 )
and the reporter thinks being in mortar range of a road = fire control.
Anyways, things are getting hot.

Ukraine Shitmupdate
Russians take control of Zaitseve and Kurdyumivka to the south of Bakhmut in Donetsk Oblast

>>356258
The ukrops tried to counterattack Kurdiumivka, didn't end too well:
https://twitter.com/Taurevanime/status/1599576503959793665
Safe to say the report of fire control on the Chasiv Yar-Bakhmut road was misinformation tho, it's gonna take a while to clear the fields and hedgerows on the way to Klischiivka.
From what can be seen on pre-war satellite imagery, the Klischiivka defensive line is well prepared (blue shapes = trench fortifications) and the forest belt on the height overlooking the village is probably entirely fortified by now.
In my opinion, the Russians' best bet is to nuke the trench fortification in the southwest and advance along the canal (green line). There will be tons of ukrop ATGM vids no matter what path they choose, but going into Klischiivka directly is suicidal.

>>356332
At this point having fire control on the Chasiv Yar-Bakhmut road is pointless though and putting Bakhmut in the kotel from only this axis is impossible without engaging in urban warfare in Bakhmut city.
Something might happen in the Soledar direction soon.

The Russians have a foothold in the northeastern forest of Bakhmut, interesting.
Not a whole lot has been published about this axis from Ru sources, there's been a lot of chatter about Pidhorodne being captured but so far nothing verified.
Ukrop artillery and drone bomblet videos proves it's not out of the realm of possibilites that the Russians are close to or have even captured the village.
No Russian movements in Soledar/Bakhmutske yet, only artillery working.

>>356334
>>356352
Yakovlivka east/northeast of Soledar was reportedly captured yesterday:
https://twitter.com/200_zoka/status/1600454155172163585
This opens the northern flank of Soledar.

The Russians reportedly also crossed the canal west of Kurdiumivka and are attacking Dyliyivka/Bila Hora.

Chasiv Yar, Toretsk, expanding buffer zone, wandering into poorly defended areas for the sake of gains or fake news?
All i know is Russia is turning up the heat for real and it's not only around Bakhmut - Avdiivka/New York direction is also seeing increased activity.

>>356301
neat!

Jihadi Julian was doomposting geolocation updates on Bakhmut front yesterday. He's still too optimistic about Opytne but the rude awakening will be entertaining.

>The Russian Army enters residential areas. The defense line of the 71st mountain brigade in Bakhmut was broken through and Russian troops advanced along Pervomaisky Lane to the intersection with Dobrolyubov.
Furthermore, the train overpass at the northern entrance of Bakhmut was blown up by the ukrops, blocking vehicles to and from the Slavyansk direction (there are still dirt roads though).
Reportedly because Wagner has entered Pidhorodne.
It's odd though, i figured they'd blow up the bridge over Bakhmutovske river (white square) first.

Wagner map.

Here is my guess.

Vucic is probably my least favourite sovereign leader in power currently. I expect nothing from the man and he still disappoints me.

>>357019
He's supposedly secured another nine or ten nations' de-recognition of Kosovo this year. This would mean a majority of UN member states support Serbia's stance now.
