That's a good thing for the Zelenskyites. It's a rout.

“Italy’s dependence on Russian gas down to 25% from 40%, Draghi says”

I will bet my $10 to your $1, that Ukraine will not become NATO member so long as Putin is alive.
But India is more than 10 times bigger than Italy, and India is buying up all excess Russian oil.
Garbage.
Be assured, if the Russian need any thing like more artillery, weapons platforms, etc., they can just grab the stuff the Ukrainians are leaving behind as they continue to retreat. Bet.
Russia says, Thank You....

Ukraine Situation Report: Russians Renew Missile Attacks From Belarus
Russian bombers struck from Belarus for the first time Saturday while it appears Sievierodonetsk has finally fallen to Russian forces.
https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/ukraine-situation-report-russians-renew-missile-attacks-from-belarus
A wave of six Russian Tu-22M3 “Backfire” bombers launched 12 Kh-22 cruise missiles from Belarusian airspace at ground targets in Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Sumy oblasts.

••Belarus:
Putin to transfer nuclear capable missiles
••Lithuania:
President says, contrary to EU wishes, they are not going to allow transfer of Russian goods through the corridor to Kalingrad.
••Wagner Group:
Its founder in Putin’s inner circle awarded Hero of Russian Federation for actions in Ukraine.
The group was formally split into 4 groups. Can function all together or be separately used somewhere else. They have their own aircraft and full scale anti-air systems, missiles etc; are becoming an elite army within the RGF.
••HIMARS:
ZSU has 12 wheeled launchers. (Edit: 4 {Transporter Erector Launchers} TELs with 3 launchers each). Used with no apparent strategy, seems to be used as propaganda tool. Russian approach is using large quantities to overcome enemy. The ZSU, being essentially a Small Soviet Army, is using the same approach, except they do not have large quantities.
(Edit: the idea of precision strikes on high value targets at long distances, which will attrit or cripple the enemy, does not seem to have been learned. The troops were trained in the details of how the weapon works, but the High Command was not trained on targeting, it seems.)
••Railroads:
Ukraine and Moldova agreed to repair a railroad that allows Ukraine grain to move to ports on the Black Sea: through Moldova to Romanian ports. Grain profitabilyity and competitiveness predicated in Ukraine on short haul railroads with special rates. Grain shipped through Poland is too expensive and nobody will buy it. Repair will likely be completed sometime in September.

“But India is more than 10 times bigger than Italy, and India is buying up all excess Russian oil.”
You are confusing oil with gas sales.
“so long as Putin is alive”
We can only hope for his death.
Translation of post by Alexander Kharchenko: Today there is worrying news from the front. The Ukrainian Armed Forces have started hunting for Russian headquarters. Previously they had tried to hit the control centres with Soviet-era artillery but rarely succeeded. /2
The Tochka and Smerch rockets were shot down by Russian air defence when they approached. With the advent of Western artillery systems everything changed. Accuracy of shooting has increased dramatically. /3
It seems that Excalibur shells and Western artillery units appeared on the front line. Now, it is necessary to spread the equipment and control it from underground command posts. As a matter of fact that is how the Soviet instructions prescribed it. /end

And as we all know without Orc Command staff near the front, communication begins to break down and Orc troops start to do stupid things.
“Russian officials say Ukraine again strikes drilling rigs Russia seized in Black Sea.
Russian officials in occupied Crimea claimed that Ukraine’s Armed Forces hit the oil drilling rigs of Ukraine’s Chornomornaftogaz enterprise for the second time in a week on June 26.”

▪️ On the night of June 25-26, units of a grouping of dissimilar forces of Ukraine carried out a massive shelling of the positions of the Russian Armed Forces on Snake Island.
▪️ Barrel artillery, including 155 mm M777 howitzers, and Western-made MLRSs were used. Three MiG-29 fighters and one Su-25 attack aircraft, probably taken off from the Voznesensk airfield, were operating in the area south of Zatoka.
▪️ According to a Russian Defense Ministry press release, air defense units shot down the Su-25 aircraft as well as 12 artillery and MLRS rounds.
▪️ Another bombardment was preceded by increased activity of the US Air Force and NATO Air Force reconnaissance aircraft flights over the territory of Romania and the Black Sea water area - at least 10 units.
▪️ The day before the previous attempted attack on the Snake River on 20 June exactly the same picture was observed: at least 10 reconnaissance planes were in the air (against the “usual” outfit of up to six aircraft).
🔻 The Ukrainian command said after the failed attempt on June 20 that the AFU would continue attacks on the island until its complete liberation. During the night,there was probably an assessment of the state of the air defense systems on Snake (positions,systems & ammunition)
As in the previous case, various types of reconnaissance aircraft were active in the air: electronic and radio reconnaissance and long-range radar detection. In the coming days we should expect a more intense attack on the island’s garrison.
It is for this purpose that the American leadership has additionally transferred 18 patrol boats to the “mosquito fleet”. It is not ruled out that the surface equipment is either on its way or has already been delivered to the Ukrainians.

Beast from the East! Panicking Putin ‘calls up OBESE 280lbs retired general, 67, to lead forces in Ukraine’ after ‘most of his best and battle-hardened senior commanders are killed’ in war
-Putin has called an obese, 20-stone former general out of retirement to fight;
-General Pavel likes to eat five meals a day and wash it down with a litre of vodka;
-Overall commander of Russian forces in Ukraine also reported to be dismissed;
-The ‘Butcher of Aleppo’ will be replaced by a ‘corrupt and brutal’ general;
-Last week the commander of Russian airborne forces was reportedly sacked;
-Reports suggest between 11 and 14 Russian generals have been killed in action.
“Canadian special forces are in Ukraine as part of a NATO network to provide weapons, training and gather intelligence about the Russians, the New York Times is reporting.
Neither the Department of National Defence nor the office of Defence Minister Anita Anand would comment on the report published Saturday that noted a few dozen commandos from NATO countries, including Britain, France, Canada and Lithuania, had been working inside Ukraine. The United States withdrew its own 150 military instructors before the war began in February.
But the New York Times, citing three U.S. officials, reported that special forces from the NATO countries either remained or had gone in and out of Ukraine since then, training and advising Ukrainian troops and providing an on-the-ground conduit for weapons and other aid.”
India needs oil for it’s refineries, gas & coal for it’s power plants.
Ditto with China.
China + India are constructing 50% of new coal fired power plants in the world. Both are energy hungry.
Together they have 40% people of the world.
“News: The US plans to announce as soon as this week that it has a purchased a NASAMS—an advanced surface-to-air missile defense system— for Ukraine, a source familiar with the announcement tells CNN. “
