Rather overshadowed by the other news of the day - but a collapse of the Russian defences in Kharkiv and around Izyum seems to be underway.

Russian telegram channels claiming that Ukrainian forces are present in Sinikha and Senkove.

Grain of salt, but they did report that Ukrainian forces had made it to Shevchenkove yesterday.

Someones been smoking again in Crimea, close to Novofedorivka airbase. I would be overwhelmed if the Russian propaganda would come up with some novel explanation instead of the old lies. How about, I don't know, maybe in the lines of "the Ukrainians hit us and we couldn't do s*it about it".

Or the Ukrainains have hit us in our specially designed anti missile revetments designed to limit the effects by funnelling the blast upwards..

Resourceful people, farmers
Post WWII farmers in Oz snapped up aircraft at disposals, nuts, bolts, metal tubing, petrol, oil, wheels, cabling.

Romanian Navy vessel hit by drifting mine while trying to clear it.

BUCHAREST, Sept 9 (Reuters) - A Romanian Navy dredger hit a drifting mine it was trying to defuse in bad weather on Thursday, but the crew of 75 were unharmed by the explosion, the defence ministry said.
Mines began floating in the Black Sea after Russia invaded Ukraine on Feb. 24, and Romanian, Bulgarian and Turkish military diving teams have been defusing those drifting in their waters.
The ministry said the ship was alerted about a mine drifting about 25 nautical miles northeast from the Romanian Black Sea port of Constanta, but couldn't defuse before being hit by it because of high winds and waves.

Looking like Solovyev may have had a damned good beating, now that would be good to see on his show.
