09 Jun: HUGE SUCCESS. Ukrainians PENETRATE 16-km WIDE FRONT | War in Ukraine Explained
Hope this highly anticipated Ukraine push is successful, the West can say we are all in but if the Ukranian's don't impress we'll see,that's why they have tried to temper expectations,this is no feinting operation where the Ruskkies were faked out and Ukraine retook Kerson and gained heavily in the Kharkiv region,this is much more daunting as mine fields and interloping zeroed in fields of artillery fire are set up and defenders are heavilly dug in,usually a 3-1 attacker/defender ratio is recommended by military gurus,Russian morale is also key,time will tell. If this is ineffective Biden will feel Rep. intrangicense over continued funding combined w/election yr. pressure. Godspeed to the Ukraine army much is on the line. PS, how you making out w/the fires in N. Scotia,lotta smoke drifting south.

Canada confiscated Russian An-124 aircraft for transfer to Ukraine
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced in Kyiv that the Russian An-124 Ruslan aircraft was confiscated by Canada and transferred to Ukraine. It is reported by Reuters.
An-124 "Ruslan" is the world's largest serial cargo aircraft. It was developed at the Antonov design bureau. The Ulyanovsk aviation complex produced 36 aircraft of this model.
In Russia, since 2003, they stopped producing the An-124, but the existing machines continue to be repaired. The Russian military took the initiative to resume the production of Ruslans. However, the head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, Denis Manturov, said that there was no need for this, because the support for the airworthiness of the An-124 could take place until the end of the 2040s.
Earlier it became known that Trudeau arrived in Ukraine on an unexpected visit . This is his second trip to Kyiv after the start of the special operation.

Putin Cops to ‘Significant Losses,’ Inferior Weapons in Stunning War Admission
In a rare admission, Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged Friday that Russia is sustaining “significant losses” in the war on Ukraine.
“In recent days, we have seen significant losses in Ukraine, they exceed the classical figure,” he said, according to the Kremlin.
The Russian president also confessed that Russian forces were dealing with artillery problems, adding in his remarks that “Yes, we still do not have enough of these modern weapons, but the defense industry, the country's military-industrial complex is developing rapidly.”
The dispirited comments about Moscow’s prospects in the war come just as Ukraine has launched a series of counteroffensives to push Russian forces out of the country.
The acknowledgment is a stark departure from typical messaging from Moscow. Putin and other Kremlin officials have long sought to paint the invasion as a success throughout the war, despite a stinging slew of losses and failed war plans. In March of last year, Putin claimed the operations were going according to plan, regardless of the Russian military’s failure to seize Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv, in an embarrassing defeat.
It doesn’t appear that Putin has completely thrown in the towel just yet, though. The Russian president attempted to throw cold water on the idea that Ukraine is fully succeeding in their counteroffensive. He added, however, that the Ukrainian military may yet achieve victory on the battlefield.
“It can be stated that all counteroffensive attempts made so far have failed, but the offensive potential of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has still been preserved,” Putin said.
The Kremlin has been working to right-size expectations within Russia about the outcome of the war. Moscow recently circulated a memo to propagandists suggesting that Russia hasn’t underestimated Ukrainian forces, in an apparent effort to set the stage for a less humiliating defeat.
The Russian losses, according to an update shared Friday from the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, are mounting. In the last 24 hours, Russian forces conducted “unsuccessful offensive operations near Bilogorivka” on the Lyman axis, the Ukrainian government said. Russians also conducted offensives near Bohdanivka on the Bakhmut axis, “albeit without success,” the update said, noting that Russia also conducted failed operations in Severne and Nevels’ke, in addition to losses in Marinka.
According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russia has lost approximately 213,770 troops since launching the invasion in February of last year.
At the beginning of May, the White House National Security Council assessed that Russian forces sustained 100,000 casualties since December.
Russian efforts to boost manpower in the military in advance of Ukraine’s counteroffensive also appear to be faltering, according to a report from The Moscow Times. Despite reported goals of recruiting 400,000 soldiers this year, recruitment efforts are reportedly not meeting intended goals.

‘Accentuate the positive’ Without clear orders from the top, Russia’s propaganda media is doing its best to downplay the Kakhovka dam breach — Meduza
As the slow-motion disaster caused by the collapse of the Nova Kakhovka dam in Ukraine’s Kherson region continues, Russian officials have repeatedly blamed Kyiv for the crisis. Unusually, however, the Kremlin has not told the country’s propaganda outlets to do the same; in fact, it hasn’t issued...

Russia can't deliver, they are under sanctions, their economy is crippled, most of their best and brightest have fled the country and lots of manpower is being chewed up by the army. Iran doesn't need oil and the Russians can barely produce arms for themselves and none with advanced western components.
