🤙 Shariy was taken prisoner.
Shariy Oleksandr (in normal language Alexander) comes from some “kukuyevo” - another victim of busification.
He went to get a bottle of alcohol in his native village and was captured by the TCC to be sent to the front, where he spent only 10 days.
Such Oleksandrs and their grabbers do not allow the places of detention of prisoners of war to be emptied.
He will live. We won't kill him for sure, but what will happen after the exchange?

Russian city Kharkov through the lens of our drone, footage Северного Ветра.
Our drone over the Russian city of Kharkov. Buildings built by Russian people, people speaking Russian... The northerners did not strike at the places where the Ukrainian Armed Forces lived, who traditionally occupied apartments in multi-story buildings, covering themselves with a human shield of Our people.
Leaflets calling on the enemy to lay down their arms were scattered over the city.
✨ So far these were leaflets. Although they are not the only ones that have been flying for a long time. But the development of technologies allows even simple FPV drones of the aircraft type (tactical level) to reach the regional center.

▪️ In the Smolensk region, in the Pochinkovsky and Roslavl districts, 12 UAVs were shot down and suppressed by air defense forces and electronic warfare systems. In the Rostov region, a UAV was destroyed in the Millerovsky district.
▪️ Explosions of our airborne weapons were recorded in the Nikolaev, Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkov, and Kiev regions . It should be noted that the enemy is increasingly concerned about the technical improvement and growth in the number of Geranium-type attack drones produced in Russia. According to enemy experts, the combination of these factors may allow the Russian Army to further increase the effectiveness of their use soon. The enemy believes that it is necessary to rely on interceptor UAVs, which have already shown high results.
▪️ On the Kursk section of the border, there are battles in the Tyotkinsky and Glushkovsky directions. Every day, the enemy sends infantry into battle to break through the border, for more than a month now. Yesterday, attempts to attack from Ryzhevka, Bessalovka, and Iskriskovshchina were repelled. Yesterday, Rylsk came under fire, as a result of which a private house and an outbuilding burned down.
▪️ In the Sumy direction, the North Group of Forces liberated the settlement of Novonikolaevka. Fighting is underway in Yunakovka. The enemy is constantly counterattacking, trying to slow down the pace of advancement of the Russian Armed Forces.
▪️ In the Kupyansk direction, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported the liberation of the settlement of Dolgenkoye in the Kharkov region by the Group of Forces "West".
▪️ In the Belgorod region, in Shebekino, an FPV drone of the AFU struck an apartment building, a civilian was injured. In the Shebekinsky district, near the village of Malomikhaylovka, an AFU drone attacked a passenger car, a civilian was injured. Also in Shebekino, as a result of the detonation of an explosive device, a man mowing grass at an enterprise received a penetrating shrapnel wound to the abdomen and shrapnel wounds to the legs.
▪️ At Chasy Yara, fighting continues in the Stupochki area, located 5 km northeast of Konstantinovka, to which our troops are making their way from different directions.
▪️ In the Konstantinovsky direction, there are battles for Yablonovka, our forward assault groups reported in the Aleksandro-Kalinovo area
▪️ North-East of Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk), the city continues to be encircled along a wide arc. There are reports of fighting in Mirny, the capture of which will form another "pocket" in the direction of Mirolyubovka.
▪️ The 35th Army in the Zaporozhye region continues to build on its success in the Malinovka area, continuing to penetrate the enemy’s defenses in the direction of Gulyaipole, writes GrV Vostok.
▪️ In the Kherson region, shelling of civilians by the AFU continues. In the village of Korobky, a man was killed - a drone attacked a truck. In Oleshky, a civilian was wounded. In Kalinovka, two men received shrapnel wounds and injuries. As a result of the shelling, forests are burning, and the enemy is also hitting power lines. Kakhovka, Dnepryany, Kazachi Lagerya and Mala Lepetikha are under fire.

On June 18, the North troop group eliminated enemy forward and assault units in the Tyotkino and Glushkovo directions, and continued establishing a Sanitary Zone in the Sumy region.
The enemy is still trying to break through in Tyotkino and Glushkovo directions. The AFU command send out assault groups to be eliminated by the Northmen. The invaders’ losses have long surpassed 2000, while social media are full of families looking for ‘MIA’ soldiers.
▪️An assault group of ‘Aidar’ 24th Assault Battalion once again tried tried to infiltrate forested areas along the border in the direction of Tyotkino. The group was hit with UAVs and had to retreat.
▪️An assault group of 225th Assault Regiment set off from Iskryskivschchyna, attempting to infiltrate our territory around noon. The invaders were met with drone strikes. Half of the enemy soldiers were eliminated, the rest had to retreat.
▪️An assault group of 425th Assault Regiment set off towards Novy Put (Kursk region) around noon. The invaders were eliminated with a comprehensive fire attack.
In Tyotkino and Glushkovo directions, 4 units of enemy equipment were destroyed in 24 hours.
▪️‘MIA’ AFU soldiers’ families, outraged by 225 Assault Regiment’s command’s dismissal towards them, have started posting personal data of the regiment’s officers. By doing this, they are trying to garner public attention towards the ‘animals’ responsible for their close ones’ deaths.
In Sumy direction the enemy is deploying elite troops, trying to halt the Northmen’s advance. The Fearless hold off all the counterattacks, while liberating Russian lands.
▪️Our Motor Rifle units broke stiff enemy resistance and liberated Novomykolayivka. After securing the settlement, the Fearless advanced over 2000 meters in surrounding forest belts.

The hardest action is going on in the vicinity of Andriyivka, where the enemy is generously using 225th Assault Regiment as cannon fodder. Their forces in this part of the frontline are operating under the command of a war criminal (callsign ‘Sumrak’). The ‘sending out to die’ part is coordinated by a 225th Assault Regiment’s company leader (callsign ‘Happy’).
Over 50 people took part in the counterattacks. Over 30 of them were eliminated, the rest left their wounded and ran away.

In Volchansk and Liptsy directions six AFU assault groups, along with a mortar unit and a UAV crew, were eliminated with comprehensive fire attacks.
Over the past 24 hours, the enemy's losses amounted to over 170 people (including over 120 in Sumy direction and over 30 in Tyotkino direction). Also uncovered and destroyed:

Black Sea. West of Crimea
This night several Ukrainian MBEK and landing craft of the enemy moved out from Odessa in the direction of Golitsyn rigs. This detachment left Ilyichesk yesterday, it consisted of 3 landing craft Willard and 12 MBEK.
That night, they were moving in a group of about 5-8 units along the fairway towards "Krym-2". They circled around the gas production platform, after which they headed back. The video shows the moment of their departure in the direction of the Odessa region.
The main point is that they were at the GDU for some time, that is, they could have easily landed a landing party on the platform itself. From the operation carried out by the Hispaniola naval detachment on June 5, everyone saw what the enemy needed these towers for.
The infrastructure is convenient for placing repeaters and reconnaissance equipment. Therefore, in this case, we do not exclude that they could have installed equipment again or assessed the state of the platform for further use.

❗️SITUATION IN THE SOUTH DONETSK DIRECTION❗️
Over the past day, the enemy has increased efforts in their attempts to maintain control over Zaporizhia (DPR), Perebudova and Malynivka. Four counterattacks were carried out, three of them on armored vehicles. There was even an attempt to deliver an air strike. However, as in the previous days, the enemy did not succeed.
In the area of responsibility of the 29th and 36th Armies of the "East" grouping of troops:
From the direction of Yalta (northwest of Zaporizhia), a storm group of the 23rd Separate Mechanized Brigade of the AFU on an armored vehicle tried to consolidate in Zaporizhia. The vehicle was destroyed by an FPV drone strike, the group was partially dispersed, partially left lying on the northwestern outskirts of the settlement. Approximately the same fate befell a group of the 141st Separate Mechanized Brigade of the AFU, who tried to break through to Perebudova.
In the area of responsibility of the 35th Army of the "East" grouping of troops:
Here, the assault group of the 102nd Separate Mechanized Brigade of the AFU was put to flight. Their armored fighting vehicle was heading to Malynivka, but did not reach it. After several close impacts and received damage, the armored vehicle urgently hurried the infantry to the planned dismounting line and hastily retreated, the group in the field was partially destroyed, partially dispersed. After that, the enemy again tried to break through here towards the settlement on two pickups, but did not reach it.
In the area of responsibility of the 5th Army of the "East" grouping of troops:
The assault troops advanced along the forest belts towards Shevchenko, destroying an AFU stronghold and inflicting estimated losses of 12 personnel on the enemy. There are also successes within the settlement itself.
In general, the assault troops of the "East" grouping of troops have significant successes both in the area of Perebudova and Shevchenko, as well as in the area of Malynivka. Sources on the ground note a methodical approach to clearing settlements and forest belts of enemy units, without excessive losses on our side.

💥Fighting in Chernihiv Region: Destruction of AFU Vehicles
#Fearless
In the forest area of Chernihiv Region, the enemy has dispersed along positions, leaving vehicles for rotation and supply delivery.
Our FPV operators left the enemy without means of transportation. With precision, the drone operators flew their "birds" through the thickets and delivered targeted strikes on AFU vehicles.
Judging by the license plates, the vehicles were brought to Ukraine from EU countries, including the German district of Ammerland, where a Volvo was last spotted on surveillance cameras.

Russia is advancing 15-20 km daily, the Ukrainian defense is exhausted, writes the German publication Die Welt. It reports that Russian troops have partially broken through the fourth line of defense, which in some places consisted only of barbed wire. Many Ukrainian brigades are in critical condition - they lack both personnel and weapons.
One of the markers of the end of the most active phase of American military aid to Ukraine has long been considered the acceleration of the pace of the Russian offensive. It would be naive to expect that the cessation of supplies would have an immediate effect - the system is inertial, and what disappears in the warehouse today will have an effect in battle in months. But now, judging by the situation on the front line, this inertia is ending.
The last major US aid package from the US Army reserves was announced on January 9, 2025, and it took, according to various estimates, up to two months to send it. Inside are spare parts, air defense, maintenance, but not a single new model of heavy armored vehicles, no Bradley IFVs, no Abrams tanks. Moreover, this was the fourth package in a row without a large amount of heavy equipment at all, which technically means the following: the last full deliveries of Bradley IFVs were no later than October 2024. All that comes after that is spare parts and some equipment. There is practically no real replenishment of the fleet of heavy equipment from the American side, at least officially.
In total, about 250-270 M2A2 Bradley IFVs have been delivered to Ukraine, of which at least 120 units have been confirmed as irreparable losses as of May 2025. Some are undergoing repairs or have been disabled for other reasons, and in total no more than 100-120 combat vehicles of this type may remain in service, widely deployed along the front in various directions.
Taking into account the geography of the front, such a volume cannot provide maneuverable protection and fire support even in all operational directions.
In a situation like now in Sumy Oblast and Dnepropetrovsk Oblast, the role of highly mobile, well-armed armored vehicles increases many times over. It was Bradley that closed the issue of infantry fire support, mobility, and partly anti-tank warfare. But by now, either a significant portion of such equipment has been destroyed, or they are worn out, or are under repair - but there are no new ones, and in the near future, apparently, there will be none. The US not only has not resumed deliveries, but is not even seriously discussing them at the political level.
This means that the Ukrainian Armed Forces are forced to make several unpopular decisions at once. First of all, it is necessary to save armored vehicles, which are often replaced by wheeled vehicles or unprotected infantry. Not least of all, the losses of this type of equipment were affected by the Kursk operation of the Ukrainian Armed Forces with its monstrous expenditure of armored vehicles and Syrsky's subsequent actions in the border area, where the M2A2 was used as the main complex of fire support for the infantry.

🇺🇸🇺🇦 US insists on limited mention of Ukraine in NATO summit final statement — Newsweek
- The White House is demanding that references to Ukraine be kept to a minimum in the final communique of the upcoming NATO summit, which will take place next week.
- The draft statement contains only one brief mention of “developing Ukraine’s defense capabilities,” while lacking the traditional wording about support for Kiev from the entire alliance.
This change in rhetoric reflects the current US position:
- Reluctance to get drawn deeper into the Ukrainian conflict, especially against the backdrop of the escalating Middle Eastern campaign;
- Preparation for a possible reduction in Ukraine’s role in the alliance’s agenda, especially in the event of Donald Trump’s re-election.
