This list only includes destroyed vehicles and equipment of which photo or videographic evidence is available. Therefore, the amount of equipment destroyed is significantly higher than recorded here. Small arms, ATGMs, MANPADS, loitering munitions, drones used as unmanned bait, civilian vehicles, trailers and derelict equipment are not included in this list. All possible effort has gone into avoiding duplicate entries and discerning the status of equipment between captured or abandoned. Many of the entries listed as 'abandoned' will likely end up captured or destroyed. Similarly, some of the captured equipment might be destroyed if it can't be recovered. When the origin of a piece of equipment can't be established, it is not included in the list. The Soviet flag is used when the equipment in question was produced prior to 1991. This list is constantly updated as additional footage becomes available.

1 000 killed Russian officers as of 12 August! Minimum confirmed losses. Confirmations are made via publicly available data, such as funeral notices, obituaries or Russian news sites.

Its the small drones with bombs applied at scale that can decimate russians in their trenches. No need for the ukes to get in firing range. All they need is the specific —even general coordinates of the russian positions. They fly the drones over the trenches. They see the russians in their trenches. They drop the grenades straight down from the drones. I’ve seen many many videos showing just this.
They should be able to clear miles of trenches that way.
Really, the tactic is so obvious that I’ve seen videos claiming that the uav’s dropping grenades from above have obsoleted trench warfare.
Key is getting the small uav’s at scale.
But even at scale that wins the war on the cheap.
Russians know this too. They would like to get 1000’s of the uav’s from the Iranians. So they can do the same thing.
Lonely “SpeedyInTexas”, resident deranged misfit, reports for duty presumably in his best John McCain outfit. Making a fool himself, again.
Kill the RuZZian invaders!
Carpet Drone them.
Drones are relatively cheap.
UA should be deploying them by the thousands. Every day.

Large Scorch Mark At Belarus Base After Mysterious Explosions (Updated)
The mysterious late-night blasts at Ziabrovka Airbase in Belarus came just hours after a major attack on a Russian airbase in Crimea.

———————————————————————————————————————
Summary:
Russian troops (Wagner mercenaries) made small gain in the North Donbas section of frontline.
Key areas:
- Izyum bridgehead: no changes
- North Donbass area:
Advance in Bahmut (not enough information to quantify) and capture of village Zaytsevo near Gorlivka
- Donetsk West: no changes
- Kherson bridgehead: no changes.
1. Kharkiv: No changes.
••North of Kharkiv still just sporadic artillery exchanges.
••Kharkiv and south: Russian forces have built buffer over past few months.
2. Izyum bridgehead. No changes.
••Two Orc attacks without success.
3. North Donbass:
Small territorial gains by Wagner mercenaries in Bahmut, and achieving complete control of village Zaytsevo near Gorlivka (not to be confused with Zaytsevo near Bahmut)
••Wide front attacks. Without progress. 1 successful attack around Bahmut
••South: some successes. All attributed to Wagner Group.
••Southern flank attack may force UA withdrawal in one area.
••Not positive developments.
4. West of Donetsk: No changes.
••Piskey mostly captured.
••No major advances
••Mostly artillery being used to flatten everything. Unlike Wagner Group, regular Orc troops will wait until everything flat.
5. Vugledar: No changes. 6. Velyka Novosilka - Gulyapole stretch of frontline. No changes.
7. Kherson bridgehead: No changes.
••Quiet.
••Bridgehead split into two parts.
••Logistics remain difficult, but no real effect.
Russia is going to have to get busy churning out more Ladas! Looks like 12 for one shell.
Ladas without ABS, airbags and nav!
Others have commented, but Wagner Group needs to be targeted structurally, not just tactically.
“Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov also claimed that Russian strikes near Kramatorsk, 120 kilometers (75 miles) north of Donetsk city, destroyed a U.S.-supplied multiple rocket launcher and ammunition.”
I think RuZZia has now destroyed 201 HIMARS.
