Ukraine is losing in the south—and Ukrainian commanders are blaming the outnumbered troops on the ground
Ukraine starves its territorial troops of manpower and equipment. No wonder they're falling back in Zaporizhzhia.
Huliaipole fell. Its defenders had been abandoned long before.
The battle for Huliaipole was a defeat for the 102nd and 106th Territorial Defense Brigades. But that doesn't necessarily mean the defeat was the territorials' fault.

Ukrainian troops are shredding an entire Russian “elite” division near Pokrovsk
The Russian 76th Guards Air Assault Division recently reinforced the Pokrovsk axis. Now Ukrainian forces are destroying the division.
Even if Ukraine’s explosive drone sub missed, it may have badly damaged that Russian sub
Sunk or not, that sub is stuck

Ukrainian troops have a new way of hiding from night drones
The infantry's only hope to escape from drones with infrared cameras is thermal camouflage. Western blankets cost $2,000, so Ukraine is making its own.
