Daily Southfront report with recent changes to the front as of late


PLEASE ADD A DESCRIPTION/SUMMARY OF WHAT THE VIDEO IS ABOUT.
Sorry, at the time i sent the link is pretty limited so i couldn't really summarise what the video is, so the content is that Ukraine has been pumping up their pool of units as of late and also some recent breakthroughs on Kharkov and Izyum front, Russian cruise missile or precision missile strikes on arms depot and military aircraft facility in Zolohiv Lvov and Voznesensk, and the last is regarding artillery bombardments on Donbass and Kherson region with some civillian casualties


Estonian APC "captured" from the looks of it a Chechen servicemen


Interesting, from the looks of it the Russians are planning some offensive on Kharkov front

The most obvious reason why the Russians might want to keep quiet about their capture while the Americans are screaming about it is that they were not real civilians.

I have always suspected that entire active duty NATO special forces teams are going into Ukraine to fight the Russians directly while under the cover of being civilian volunteers.

If the Russians captured members of such teams, they will have ways to make them talk. Ways that will undoubtedly not look pretty but which might yield vastly valuable intel; so it makes sense why the Russians might like to keep their capture quiet while the Americans would want them the centre of the world’s media attention in the hopes that all that media spotlight would make the Russians hesitant from totally going totally to town on breaking them.
Didn't stop them from parading British militants on TV for everyone to see.

Read the report, these guys got into a gun fight with a tank and weren't heard from again a week ago. They are likely worm food.

Americans have this Hollywood belief that their soldiers are super soldiers who never die. If they haven't been heard from then they must have been captured by the evil commies. The same thing happened in Vietnam and North Korea and for years after politicians would bug both governments trying to free imaginary prisoners.

Apparent rumour of Russian mobilization of troops in the coming weeks. Curious as to what this might entail and what the forum members ,here, make of this.

Russians are planning to do mobilization in the next month in June .
By the beginning of July they're going to start mobilization......."

I assume it would be another case of false rumor of Putin declaring mobilization back on 9th of May military parade

The Ukrainian army continues to use limited aircraft in some places. A video of an operational airfield of the Ukrainian army created in the field in the area between Ivanovka and Ryasnopol in the Odessa region has appeared. It is possible that the spontaneous airfield has already disappeared, since Russian intelligence is working quickly. In the video, you can see three Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopters and one Mi-2 helicopter. The video also shows the combat operation of the Mi-8 helicopter of Ukraine, the pilots attack from afar, in the nose-up mode, just like Russian pilots do in Ukraine.


A new batch of Western weapons has arrived in Ukraine, a trainload of British Warrior MCV-80 armored personnel carriers has been spotted. Serial production of the BMP Warrior MCV-80 began in 1985. The armored vehicle is equipped with a 30 mm L21A1 automatic cannon, with which a 7.62 mm machine gun is paired. The Warrior BMP has a significant drawback - the lack of stabilization of the 30-mm cannon, because of this, it is advisable to fire while stopped. Despite this, Warrior in terms of reliability and survivability has proven itself well in the war in Iraq. Some versions of the armored personnel carrier were equipped with Chobham armor; there is a known case when such armor withstood 12 RPG hits in Iraq, but these versions were not delivered to Ukraine. Now the Warrior MCV-80 is in service with Britain and Kuwait, but is gradually being replaced by the German BMP Boxer. The speed on the highway BTR Warrior 75 km / h, cruising range 500 km. The crew of the BMP is 3 people, the number of soldiers transported is 7.
