Cracks appeared on the piers of the illegally built bridge across the Kerch Strait, which connects the temporarily occupied Crimea with the Krasnodar Territory (Russia).
“The supports of the Kerch bridge are tired. It’s about time,” writes the Crimean Wind Telegram channel.
Despite warnings that supplying weapons to Ukraine would lead to a world war, the US president continues to challenge Putin, a strategy that brings both risk and reward, the newspaper writes, citing sources in the US government.
According to the officials, the key reason for ignoring Putin’s threats is the fact that the Russian president has not kept his promises to punish the West for providing weapons to Ukraine. His bluff assured American and European leaders that they could continue to do so without serious consequences.
According to U.S. officials, a possible explanation for Putin’s reluctance to strike the West is the deteriorating state of the Russian army
Russian troops in the Belgorod region of the Russian Federation do not take civilians into account in the fight against “saboteurs”. Near the village of Nova Tavolzhanka, they destroyed a Renault with civilians, mistaking them for legion volunteers. As a result, at least two people were k__led. “This incident is yet another proof of the unprofessionalism of Putin’s army,” the Freedom of Russia Legion reports.
The post says that active fighting is currently taking place on the outskirts of Nova Tavolzhanka. There are also wounded among the legionnaires," the statement said.
In addition, Russian sources claim that up to a hundred RDC fighters are breaking through in Belgorod Oblast in another area - Urazovo-Verigovka.
The RKK’s chief of staff promises that the group’s intentions will soon become clear to everyone. Meanwhile, reports of a referendum on the creation of the Belgorod People’s Republic, allegedly scheduled for Sunday, have appeared online.

“Cotton is blooming again in Berdiansk! There are hits on the occupiers’ positions. Thanks to the Armed F___es of Ukraine for bringing the liberation of the city closer,” said the head of the city military administration, Victoria Galitsyna.
At the same time, a representative of the occupation authorities, Rogov, said that “there were no casualties or destruction”.
I think this really has taken Russia / Putin by surprise. All they ever expected was a simple, short invasion and not have any retaliation. They were not prepared for any of this (like the war itself) leaving them in disarray.

Russian occupiers blew up Kakhovka HPP - the scale of destruction, the speed and volume of water, and the likely areas of flooding are currently being clarified
Prime Minister Shmyhal reports the threat of flooding in up to 80 settlements. According to him, the destruction of the hydroelectric power plant also threatens an environmental disaster for southern Ukraine.
Under article 56 of the Geneva convention this is a war crime. It’s not the first and sadly won’t be the last. Russia is blaming Ukraine to which Ukraine has said they would hardly do this to their own infrastructure. Not only that but the damage was caused on the Russian side so it couldn’t have been Ukraine.
This shows the mentality Ukraine is up against and how c___dish and evil the Russian’s are. If they are losing they will wreck and destroy whatever they can before they leave.
I am grateful to all our rescuers, the military, representatives of local communities, and each of our regions who are now helping people from our southern regions flooded by the Russian terrorist attack.
The authorities at all levels are doing everything they can to save people and provide _____ing water to those who have been receiving it from the Kakhovka reservoir. Kryvyi Rih and the entire Dnipropetrovs’k region, towns and villages in Kherson, Mykolaiv and Zaporizhzhia regions - no matter how difficult it is, we have to help people.
I am grateful to everyone who is currently evacuating people from the towns and villages flooded by water from the Kakhovka reservoir. It is very important now to take care of each other and help as much as possible.
The whole world will know about this Russian war crime, the crime of ecocide. Such deliberate destruction of the dam and other hydroelectric power plant facilities by the Russian occupiers is an environmental bomb of mass destruction. For the sake of our own safety, the world should now show that Russia will not get away with such terror. The Prosecutor General has already appealed to the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court to involve international justice in the investigation of the dam’s explosion.
Glory to all our people who are fighting and working for our country and our people!
Today, just like yesterday, I would like to pay special tribute to our heroes in the Bakhmut sector… Well done, soldiers! 3rd separate assault brigade and 57th separate motorised i____try brigade - thank you! Thank you for moving forward!
Glory to Ukraine!
The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the Russian army had allegedly destroyed 8 Leopard tanks, and published a video to prove it.
However, the OSINT community immediately exposed the Russian lie: the footage showed silhouettes of agricultural machinery - a sprayer and a combine harvester by John Deere company.
Russia will be pariahs for generations to come and deserve it more then anybody has ever deserved it.
What they are doing is an abomination to mankind and will never be forgiven.
