Military reports
The situation on the fronts of Donbass remains unchanged. The main Russian forces are concentrated in the Severodonetsk region, where the Ukrainian army committed a counterattack on the weekend, which, according to the head of the Severodonetsk district administration of Roman Vlasenko, forced the Russians to transfer reserves. Observers note that the Russian army clearly fulfills in this battle the political goal of entering the administrative border of the Luhansk region by June 12 - it is obvious that in order to celebrate the Day of Russia in the destroyed cities (the occupied Berdyansk was already “decorated” with the corresponding festive posters).
The Ukrainian military expert Mikhail Samus explains that at the moment the goal of the Ukrainian army is to make any advance, exhaust and demoralize the enemy and inflict maximum technical damage to the Russians as much as possible. Another Ukrainian military expert, Valery Ryabykh, admits that the concentration of Russian troops around Severodonetsk can be used to strikes in other areas - and the Ukrainian military seems to be busy: on Monday on Monday, air strikes of the Ukrainian army in the Nikolaev and Kherson regions were reported .
The Russian army is preparing an attack on Svyatogorsk and Slavyansk, and the adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, Alexei Ardsnutovich, admits that in the coming days the Ukrainian military will surrender Svyatogorsk ( according to the representative of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, the city has long been “liberated”), and a week later Slavyansk will be taken in siege. Arrestovich is also waiting for the offensive of Russian troops by raisins and an exacerbation of the situation in the Zaporizhzhya region. The Ukrainian General Staff notes that in the Donetsk region, Russians are engaged in the completion of their units, including tank, and the authorities of the so -called “DPR” report the shelling of Donetsk from Ukraine.
The head of the administration of the Sumy region Dmitry Zhivitsky informed on Monday evening that during the day Russian troops fired three border regions from mortars and artillery; The head of the Kursk region in the morning announced the shelling of the border village.
The UK, after the United States, announced the intention to put a volley fire system in Ukraine. Lavrov has already promised that this would not remain unanswered, and Armovich said that at least sixty of such systems were required.
In the occupied territories
Anna Golovko, a representative of the Azov regiment, explained to reporters that 160 military bodies that Russia transferred to Ukraine on Saturday were taken out from Azovstal. How many more bodies remain on the territory of the plant is not known. The President of Ukraine said that in Russian captivity there are more than 2.5 thousand Ukrainian troops from Azovstal, and the Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine is engaged in their liberation.
At least some of them are in prison in Elena in the territory of the so -called “DPR”. There are at least 24 Ukrainian volunteers who were evacuated by the inhabitants of Mariupol and, for some reason, detained on Russian or “DNR” checkpoints- this is what is known about their situation. At least 30 volunteers disappeared in the vicinity of Mariupol; Throughout the country, the police accepted applications for the loss of 15 thousand people (half of them have already been found, but not always alive).
In the occupied Mariupol, according to the Ukrainian authorities of the city , quarantine is introduced due to the danger of the spread of cholera. It is impossible to confirm these statements, but earlier the city warned the WHO warned about the possible flash of cholera in destroyed and devoid of water supply. About how Latvian volunteers help the Mariupol residents to leave for the west from the city, it is told here -some citizens and after a month under the bombs continue to believe that the city was destroyed by the Ukrainian army, but for some reason they do not want to live in Russia.
There is no war in Russia
But there is an “armed conflict”: the State Duma committee approved the bill to the first reading, equating to the Stateizer “Transition to the En estate” in the conditions of “armed conflict” or “military operations” in which Russia takes part. These legislative extracts are required to avoid the introduction of martial law in the country.
There are secret dead:
- The court in the Kaliningrad region recognized the information banned for distribution, an article by the Pskov edition of 60.ru with a list of Russian military who died in Ukraine (the military prosecutor of the Baltic Fleet filed a lawsuit).
- Putin signed a decree on five millionth payments to the families of the National Guard, border guards and “volunteers” who died in Ukraine and Syria.
- The editors of the telegram channel "We can explain" found hundreds of lots on the public procurement website for the organization of burials in different cities. Typically, graves are purchased for people without relatives or from unprotected social groups, whose families cannot pay for the funeral. There were no purchases of this scale in previous years: 700 graves were ordered in the Khabarovsk Territory alone.
There are “fakes” and “discrediting”:
- In relation to the researcher of the Russian special services of Andrei Soldatov, a criminal case was instituted on the spread of “fakes” about the Russian army, he was put on the wanted list.
- A resident of Naberezhnye Chelnov was fined five thousand rubles for damage to property of the house through anti -war inscriptions on the floor of the entrance and elevator. Earlier, she was issued a thirty -thousandth fine for “discrediting” the Russian army.
- At the Yekaterinburg newspaper “Evening Vedomosti” drew up an administrative protocol on the “discredit” of the army due to 54 posts on anti -war shares.
- The court in Moscow fined Radio Freedom for another 20 million rubles in 20 protocols about the failure of information, access to which is "subject to restriction". The total amount of fines is approaching 56 million.
- Here is a wonderful conversation with the organizer of the cargo transportation by Yan Shikin from the Krasnoyarsk Territory: two grandmas and police officer wrote statements at once - just because he covers the course of the war in Ukraine in his classmates. According to one protocol on the “discredit”, Shikin was justified, and according to the second, they fined 30 thousand rubles. One of the scammers is dissatisfied with the justifying sentence - it will probably be appealed.
- The prosecutor's office demanded to deprive the Russian citizenship of the eco -activist Arshak Makichyan. Makichyan lives in Russia from one year, received Russian citizenship in 2004, graduated from the university and was married to a Russian woman. He has no other citizenship except Russian. After Russia's invasion of Ukraine, he criticized the Russian authorities and called for introducing an oil embargo to stop the war. Now Makichyan in Germany is an interview with him.
And there is a bright future:
- In the Tyumen region, health workers are taught to betray “crisis pregnant women” taking into account traditional values, that is, they tell them that “God gave a hare - give a lawn”, weaned from “contraceptive thinking”, “leaving from childbirth” and “Western liberalism with its ideology of consumption”. Against this background, the Commissioner for the Rights of the Child under the President of Russia Maria Lvov-Belova approved the participation of children in flash mobs in the support of Russian troops located in Ukraine, and added that many children are simply eager for the Donbass.
- Meanwhile, all Russian (and Belarusian) universities are excluded from the Bologna education system, said the deputy minister of education and science Dmitry Afanasyev.
- Here, the publicist of Nevzorov discusses the bright Russian future: the rams for the Russian Federation, he believes, will pinch in North Korea, and the high -tech production of bast shoes will have to be entrusted with Malaysia.
In the international arena
- According to Bloomberg , the Turkish authorities proposed assistance with cleansing the exit from the port of Odessa in order to resume the export of Ukrainian grain. Ankara has already agreed with Russia and hopes to receive UN support, but Ukraine is unhappy with this plan, because I am sure that Russia will use the coast to make a coast to capture Odessa. The American publication Politico writes that the US authorities will not lose sanctions from Russia in exchange for the possibility of grain export from Ukraine. The constant representative of Russia in the UN Security Council Vasily Nebenzha left the hall during the performance of the chairman of the European Council Charles Michel: he accused Russia of blocking millions of tons of grain in Ukraine, disruption of agricultural work, strokes for granaries, theft of agricultural products and attempts to “shift the guilt of others”. The deputy Nebenzi complained that Michelle said "scruising and rude."

Around the world
- In Kazakhstan, preliminary results of the referendum on amendments to the Constitution were summed up : they were supported by 77.1% of the voters, 18.6% spoke out against. The country's authorities call constitutional reform a means of “final departure from the super -presidential form of government”, but politically active youth and political scientists consider the referendum a means of legitimization of President Tokayev and strengthening his power.
