Interesting video about Ukraine fighting the Wagner Group in the East. No gore that I've noticed, but there are dead bodies with features blurred.

Pretty general video. Not a lot of updates. He mostly seems to discuss the war in general and a bit of the Kherson front.
Good video for people asking how it's going/who's winning, as of August 10th, 2022.
Unless they want an unpleasantly hot summer break, we advise our valued russian guests not to visit Ukrainian Crimea.

I asked a friend from Kharkiv who has relocated his manufacturing business to western Ukraine (and also opening US operations) for some perspective on the population that remains in Russian occupied areas of eastern Ukraine.
Also this.
Quote:
1. There are a lot of people that stay on the occupied and hot territories. I can say because I read some local telegram chats from time to time. One part of people is don't have any place to go, other part is afraid to loose their belongings because this is all they have in their life. And also there are a lot of pro-russian (mostly old) people who was waiting the return of USSR. These group is the same as most of Donbass rebels - depressive and lazy people that don't want to work hard and just live like in USSR. They live on donations and humanitarian aid from russia. There are also businessmen who adapted to this system and feel good in that circumstances because russians are not too stupid and give them support. But still the situation is very depressive there. People live under pressure and don't have any other way to live. Because they scared and pumped with a huge portions of propaganda from every kettle.
2. Russian has a lot of old weapons and shells for them. Their army are not high morale and now they just want to stay on occupied positions and wait for a miracle. They shoot at the infrastructure of cities, often not understanding where they are shooting. Just to intimidate the local population. But taking into account the intercepted conversations between military and conversations with relatives, the Ukrainians use high-precision Western weapons very skillfully. The talks say that many are already trying to desert and leave the territory of Ukraine. But others take their places, because the Russian propaganda machine does its job very well.
Also this.

Ukrainians have been preparing for war for 8 years. We saw this all the time when we participated in shows and competitions at training grounds. The Russians had false intelligence reports about the readiness of the Ukrainian army. But also, Ukraine is on its territory and this is + 10000% to morale and the desire to win. Over the last 4 years, more than 60% of the main routes between cities have been made. Logistics in Ukraine is really a cut above that of the enemy.
More great reporting from @novaya_gazeta, this time on the major strategic challenges facing Russia in Ukraine. According to the paper, 60% of Russia's entire force in Ukraine is now located in the Kherson area in fear of a Ukrainian assault: https://t.co/OUSjt2iyPY

1/2⚡️The Russian army will soon face logistical problems and will not be able to compensate for losses in equipment, – Mart Vendla, Deputy Chief of the General Staff of the Estonian Defense Forces, says.

2/2 According to him, since the full-scale invasion, Russia has lost more tanks than are in service with Germany or the UK. And Western sanctions do not allow the production of new equipment.

Some chatter on Reddit that the Kherson offensive has begun and the Russians have evacuated their command center to the other side of the river out of the city.

That should instill confidence in their troops.
Nothing says we've got this like "You guys stay here. We're pulling anyone important back across the river."

They've been accurate on a lot of stuff actually
I interpreted that to be sarcastic about inspiring confidence on the ruski troop side of things and not a shot at reddit's credibility. But maybe I'm wrong...

Today, #Ukraine artillery effectively destroyed the bridge in Nova Kakhovka city. This is the second (and the last) bridge over the Dnipro river through which Russian military supply tens of thousands of its troops on the right bank. Now, they're cut of supplies.

If the second part of that that thread comes true, those commanders better hope there's a way far, far away from Russia.
[2] In a few days, we will see how tens of thousands of Russian soldiers on the right bank of Dnipro river will surrender to #Ukraine. Or how a few of them may try to swim across the wide Dnipro river.

To put things into perspective: Forbes estimates that Russia lost $380 million worth of equipment during the recent incident at the airfield in Crimea. However, this is only a third of the amount of money Russia makes selling gas to Europe in a single day

At Pisky, Avdiivka, and Marinka, Russia has been able to make some progress while taking significant losses. They're using Wagner to push forward.

I have fear that Putin's off ramp will be to cause a disaster at the nuclear plant and blame it on the Ukrainians. He will then withdrawal his troops for safety concerns.
You may not be far off.

More hits to the bridge.
I don't think he will do that. A disaster at that geographic location would likely affect a significant portion of the occupied territory that he has lost tens of thousands of troops trying to take. He's too blood thirsty and greedy to poison the land he's trying to steal.docb said:

Here's an excerpt on how much territory was affected by the Chernobyl disaster…
How large an area was affected by the radioactive fallout? Some 150,000 square kilometres in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine are contaminated and stretch northward of the plant site as far as 500 kilometres. An area spanning 30 kilometres around the plant is considered the "exclusion zone" and is essentially uninhabited.
