Russia began building a direct railroad connection to the occupied Mariupol, Volnovakha, and Donetsk.
The occupiers are building a railway bridge near the village of Hranitne over the Kalmius River.
If they succeed in this plan, they will have a direct connection to Taganrog and Rostov, which will solve the problem of military logistics across the Crimean bridge.
It is not yet known whether the Armed Forces have any solution for this case.
But it should be sought.

Russian cybersports players Daniil "Putrick" Abdrakhmanov and Egor "Swizzy" Lucico won $200,000 at the Fortnite championship. However, Epic Games refused to pay the prize money because of the Russian citizenship of the players.
According to them, they were playing from Belarus and their bank accounts were registered in Kazakhstan. Nevertheless, Epic Games, the organizer of the tournament, refused to pay the prize money and disqualified Abdrakhmanov from the FNCS tournament in Copenhagen. The players tried to appeal the decision and sent a request to Epic Games, but they received a refusal with the wording that they come from "a region with limited access to prizes."

They thought they were being slick playing from the Russian subdivision, Belarus.

A father says goodbye to his daughters and heads back to the war.
Hickory is some tough wood. That chainsaw cuts it but it's working hard. And if it needs splitting it's a lot of work. Luckily most of it does not need splitting.
Time to get some work done now that the rain has stopped

🇷🇴 Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu explained why Bucharest did not respond to the grain crisis like Poland.
"I am one of those who believe that Ukraine should be helped until the war is over. Our assistance is to help this grain transit. You saw that I did not react the same way as Poland. I also had institutional discussions with the Romanian president on this issue, and we both came to the same opinion," Ciolacu said.
According to him, through a dialogue with the Prime Minister of Ukraine, "we found a licensing system... to protect farmers."

That’s what propaganda is.
During the war in Afghanistan, there was a requirement for Russian reporters: max 1 dead and max 5 wounded per day.
And if you follow Russian channels then it is noticeable that, for example, about the fighting for places is constantly reported.
If the village is lost, this village disappears from the reports without comment.

🤔 Elon Musk's social network X (Twitter) has disabled the ability to complain about election disinformation.
Previously, this was a separate category in the complaints menu, but last week it was removed for all users except those in the EU, Reuters reports.
Research organization Reset.Tech Australia believes that this is a problem, as the ability to complain about disinformation was disabled less than three weeks before the Australian referendum on constitutional amendments and 14 months before the US presidential election.
Ukraine considered taking out Iran's Shaheed factories.

There are people around Zelensky who give him bad advice, this opinion was expressed in Duda’s office
The head of the office for international policy in the administration of the Polish President, Marcin Przydacz, said on Radio.ZET that President Zelensky’s speech at the UN caused a critical reaction not only from Poland, but also from other states.
According to Przydacz, “perhaps some bad emotions played on Kyiv’s side.” “Probably, there are people around President Zelensky who simply give him bad advice,” Przydacz emphasized.
He added that breaking any partnership with allies would not be in Ukraine's interests.
Przydacz also assured that the Polish side is open to negotiations: “If there is a constructive approach, we do not rule out contacts at the highest level.”

Loss tallies. Only 3 tanks
Former mercenaries of the Wagner PMC, who were in Belarus, signed a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry and moved to the eastern direction of the front in Ukraine. Some of the militants went to Africa, said Ilya Yevlash, a spokesman for the Eastern Military Group.
"They do not pose such a threat as they did, for example, a year ago due to the loss of their main leader Yevheniy Prigozhyn," he added.
The Border Guard Service clarified that there were more than 6,000 Wagnerites in Belarus. Currently, according to Demchenko, about 500 militants remain in Belarus.
Earlier, the aerial reconnaissance operator of the Code 9.2 unit of the 92nd Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said in a comment to CNN that Wagnerites had returned to the Bakhmut area.
