Russia reports: – Kiev recaptured village “with huge loss”.

Date:

Unusual confession from the Russian side: According to a government representative loyal to Moscow, the Ukrainian army allegedly recaptured the village of Pyatychatky. However, this success came at a high price: the result was achieved only with “colossal losses”, and hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers died.

“Ukrainian forces have managed to take it (the village) under their control,” Vladimir Rogov wrote on his Telegram channel on Sunday. It is rare for Moscow to admit losses. There was no confirmation from the Ukrainian side. The British Ministry of Defense said in a report on Sunday that heavy casualties had been suffered on both the Ukrainian and Russian sides in the fierce fighting.

Video shows Ukrainian prisoners of war insulting their own military leaders
The recaptured place is now being fired upon by artillery from the Russian side, Rogov said. The goal is to completely encircle Kiev’s troops. You are threatened with destruction. Rogov also claimed that Ukrainian commanders and soldiers had voluntarily surrendered to Russian prisoners of war on the Zaporizhia front. He released a video showing men with shaved heads in uniform. They introduced themselves by name – and in unison – like a rehearsed text – insulted the Ukrainian military leadership. The authenticity of the recording could not be verified at first.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian troops reported fighting in different directions on the front lines. Images of large explosions and a fire circulated on social media. Accordingly, near the city of Henichek, the Kiev air force hit a large Russian ammunition depot in the occupied part of the Kherson region.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, meanwhile, thanked the soldiers involved in fighting the invading Russian forces on the occasion of Father’s Day in his country. The head of state published a video of the government initiative United24, which collects donations to deal with the consequences of the war. It showed returning Ukrainian soldiers hugging their children. “I wish our fathers a long and healthy life,” Zelensky said. “And every father who is on the front lines, may he come home.”

Experts hold Moscow responsible for the dam’s destruction
The New York Times, meanwhile, suggested in a report that Russia may be responsible for the destruction of the Kakhovka dam. There is evidence that “clearly indicates that the dam was crippled by an explosion caused by the party that controls it: Russia.” The newspaper cited engineers and explosives experts. However, according to the experts, only a full examination of the dam can reveal the sequence of events that led to its destruction. Water erosion “could also have led to failure” if the dam had been poorly constructed or the concrete was of poor quality. “But engineers thought that was unlikely,” the report says.
