Devastating defeat of a Russian BTG near Belohorivka in Donbas - Ukrainian artillery scored a serious victory and prevented Russia from crossing the Severskiy Donets River and advancing further to outflank Severodonetsk.

United Kingdom military intelligence said Sunday that Russia has lost around one-third of the ground combat forces it deployed when the invasion began in February, Reuters and Al Jazeera report.
U.K. intelligence also concluded that Russia's offensive in the Donbas had "lost momentum and fallen significantly behind schedule" and that units engaged in the offensive were suffering from "low morale and reduced combat effectiveness."
Russian forces, the assessment concluded, are "unlikely to dramatically accelerate [their] rate of advance over the next 30 days."

Is that the same UK Intelligence that framed Trump?
But they’ve still get two-thirds to work with ... and that ain’t bad!
Yep, same bunch.
This is good news, though, we don’t have to borrow to send $40 billion after all........
That’s a lot of dead sons, husbands, brothers, grandsons, nephews, friends etc.
What was he thinking. Putin must be one isolated fellow to make such a blunder. He will never take the Ukraine. Btw I’ve read too much Ostfront history to drop the “the”. Old habits.
Never believe the intelligence agencies.
“we don’t have to borrow to send $40 billion after all........”
LOL
My guess is the primary lie of UK intelligence is the implication that they even know.
RE: But they’ve still get two-thirds to work with ... and that ain’t bad!
Reminds me of this scene from the comedy, Dumb and Dumber I:
Lloyd Christmas ( played by Jim Carrey ):
Tell me, what are the chances of a girl like you and a guy like me... ending up together?
Mary Swanson: Not good.
Lloyd Christmas: Not good like one in a hundred?
Mary Swanson: I’d say more like one in a million.
Lloyd Christmas: So you’re telling me there’s a chance? YES!!!
“But they’ve still get two-thirds to work with ... and that ain’t bad!”
And they’re doing quite well too, at least in Central Donbas, where most of the action is. Of course the Western media won’t bother with that part, since the $40B still has not yet been secured for their DNC friends.
Nobody believes what the British or US intelligence agencies have to say. Totally corrupt war mongers.
Lol! I saw that movie.
Exactly, prayers for the families on both sides.
In my opinion if Trump was president, this pooty-poot tragic folly would have never happened.

UK and intelligence in the same sentence? You could substitute US, Biden, Pelosi, or any democrat for UK and maintain the absurdity of the statement. WTF
Not all dead. I think, in that count are the one seriously wounded.
Somebody loosing a limb is as useful for military purposes as being dead.
For each dead there are few seriously wounded.
I got a relative who fell from the horse in WWI and broke bunch of bones. Guess what? He never fought again!
If they killed him, it would be the same for the WWI fighting purposes.
“Nobody believes what the British or US intelligence agencies have to say. Totally corrupt war mongers.”
Are the intelligence agencies of Russia and China totally corrupt war mongers, as well?
“In my opinion if Trump was president, this pooty-poot tragic folly would have never happened.”
I agree.
One wounded occupies two people to carry him. One well placed round in a ten man patrol could render 30% of your opposition out of action, if they bother to tend to the wounded.
