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.

“In the vicinity of Pisky, #Donetsk Oblast, the Ukrainian 79th Air Assault Brigade destroyed a damaged Russian T-72B tank with a single F-1 grenade dropped into the driver’s hatch.”

Apparently, you didn’t get the memo. It’s not about liberating anyone or anything. Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev fully admitted the imperialist motivation you and other Putin apologists so vehemently deny when he said that the Baltic states were “their Baltic provinces” and Poland was “temporarily occupied”.

“and is no official again part of the Russian Federation”
Being the gracious person I am, I’ll laugh at your English again.
“a NATO funded, equipped and trained force lost against convicts with shovels.”
...with the most intense use of Artillery carpet bombing of an urban area since WWII, and the lions share of their Close Air Support sorties. So more than shovels actually - the full remaining might of the Russian military. And yet Russia struggled for 10 months with Ukraine’s 56th biggest city.

CRIMINAL WEAPON: @AlexKokcharov posts this video of RU employment of TOS-1 𝘉𝘶𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘰 short-range MLRS to launch incendiary and thermobaric warheads against the city of Bakhmut. RU is the only nation known to use wide-dispersal incendiary weapons against urban targets.

P.S. The NATO equipped and trained units have not been committed to combat yet, but are prepared for the upcoming Spring/Summer counteroffensive. A follow-on wave of additional new NATO trained and equipped Brigades is now in the pipeline, for a Fall/Winter Operation (likely with NATO standard 4th Generation Fighter jets, like F-16s). Nations like the USA are now budgeting for significant increases in funding for the Ukrainian Military for next fiscal year.
Weather delay? Rain in the forecast.

Discussion: Next week has a return of a significant period of rainfall after 19 of the past 21 days being dry. All models are in agreement on a rain event in the east and south. Expected rainfall will degrade trafficability until at least mid-June.

Mmmm, so we are going to the traditional date for an offensive in Ukaine, 22 of June.
Bagration and Barbarossa nod in approval.
Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev said that the Baltic states were “their Baltic provinces” and Poland was “temporarily occupied”. So Russia doesn’t intend to liberate, but conquer. He admitted it himself.
