The Russian offensive in the Kharkiv region was almost stopped by the large reserves of the Armed Forces of Ukraine deployed to theis direction. The longer the fighting continues on the northern front lines, the more the drowning of Ukrainian strategic reserves in border battles has a strategic impact on depleted Ukrainian defenses in other regions. In an attempt to decrease the threat of the major Russian breakthrough on the Donbass frontlines, the Ukrainian military command is throwing large forces in counterattacks in an attempt to end the battles in this dangerous direction. Meanwhile, the Russian army is yet to deploy the main forces prepared for offensive on Kharkiv.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine began massive counterattacks in the recent days. According to the official report by the Russian Ministry of Defense, the Russian North group of forces repelled five counterattacks by enemy assault groups in the areas of the settlements of Liptsy and Volchansk in the Kharkiv region. The losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reportedly included up to 215 servicemen, a tank, two armored combat vehicles, four cars, as well as two 122-mm D-30 howitzers.
The main Ukrainian counterattacks were attempted along the Volchya River in the forest industrial area in the western part of the village. So far, the have reportedly achieved no success. Meanwhile, the North group of Russian troops is storming the territory of the Aggregate Plant and the area of high-rise buildings in the center of Volchansk. The also advanced in the private sector in the east of the city.
In the Liptsy direction, Russian forces managed to break through the defense of the 42nd Infantry Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and advance in the forest areas south-east of the village of Glubokoe. The new gains pave the way for the Russian control over the highway to Liptsy.
The operation of the Ukrainian military are complicated by the constant Russian strikes in the rear areas. On June 3, numerous explosions thundered in the city of Kharkiv and in the region. An air defense system and military equipment were reportedly destroyed as a result of the strike on an industrial facility on the outskirts of Kharkiv. More successful Russian strikes reportedly destroyed Ukrainian military positions in the areas of the towns of Bogoduhov, Zmiev and Zolochev. In particular in Zmiev, at least five Russian strikes reportedly destroyed a recreation center used for accommodation of Ukrainian servicemen.
Russian heavy bombs are pounding Ukrainian positions:
Unable to gain the military initiative, the Ukrainian command is transferring additional reinforcement to the area, including elite and experienced units. According to the latest reports, the notorious 414th separate elite battalion of strike unmanned aircraft systems, known as Ptahy Madyara, known thanks to Nazi leaders of the unit, was deployed in the Kharkiv region.
At the same time, Ukrainian media reported that the military command of the Russian North group of forces has allegedly begun to put its main reserve into battle in the Kharkiv region. According to Ukrainian sources, the main forces include the units of the 72nd Motorized Rifle Division of the 44th Army Corps. These reports are yet to be confirmed by any evidence on the battlefield. It is possible that Kiev is waging another media campaign aimed to justify the defeats of the Ukrainian army amid the upcoming Zelensky’s conference in Switzerland.
On the other hand, Russian official and military commander Apty Alaudinov reported that the Chechen Akhmat special forces were transferred to the Kharkiv direction. The Chechen forces aimed to reinforce the Russian North group of forces are already performing tasks on their new positions.

amazing how accommodating ukraine is to russia’s concept of attritional warfare.
its just reflective of the ‘great reset’ policy of the us state department first instituted under hillary clinton.

check the analysis of the austrian army on youtube called ‘the russian momentum is back’. they conclude that when the complete northern front of 500 km long is attacked, it is over for kiev regime.
well, zelensky always has his fallback army of draft dodgers to pull his chestnuts out of the fire.
its like that.
it’s like what?, you sorry excuse for an upright homo simpian.
very informative, thank you.
warfare of today is not like that at all.
nonsense. you’re talking danish warfare, where you surrendered to the austrian dictator even before he wrote the invasion order.
i hear people say: “we care so much about ukraine.” no, you don’t. if you truly cared about ukraine, you would have not brought it down to its knees. the untouchables, like those who work for blackrock have started this, and this is always a new beginning for them. they’ll do it in another country as we speak.
nah, nato started this when they failed to curb their appetite for crimea and total control of the black sea. black rock just saw it as an appetizing afterthought.
hi fellow friends, i am ukrainian and im here to sell myself for money. please tell me what i can do to humiliate myself in front of the world for the amerikantsiy
you can start to sell russian territory to foreigners
play a piano with ur dick, u fkn fruitcake half “chosenite” wannabe..
zelensky deported me to dumbmark where i change name to jens holm—cuz he cannot pay 11 million ukie pensioners==but dumb dane pay me
would love to see putin end the nato threat. dispatch squads to finish the deep state people.
world wide.
russia can end ukraine special operation when they wanted. what’s next? how can you move forward with a 50 millions+ ukraine civilians and a broken economy; that for sure will collapse russia if they take all over ukraine. so russia is acting very smart here, like a true world power they are, russia could not and will not make any bad moves, russia is playing awesome in ukraine. everything goes right like russia wanted and not what u.s.a empire and nato minions wanted.
guess the exceptionals still can learn something from russia and weren’t so exceptionals has they thought themselves. the masters of the universe did not had all the answers and they are choking while trying to enslave and conquering russia, so they were not so smartasses as they believed themselves.
seeing that mayham arises moods of sadness about life and an acute awareness of evil and the suffering it’s delivering these days. after all is set and done with ukraine, they will need a complex spinal reconstruction, which nobody is going to shoulder for them.
everyone dies alone…
sad times ahead. the americans have hoodwinked the world. last 30 years their system turned out to be not oly garbage. it is a cancer on our world now. this is a global problem and threat, that will require global solutions. europe is under occupation by fascism again, anglo american fascism. slowly westerners will wake up to that reality in the coming years. we are ahead of the curve here. there is no peaceful way to defeat fascism.
take care…
not if ur french, you die together in ur hostel, aka “iskandered”.
1.there are no 50 mln. 1991 — 52, 2001 — 48, census-2020 was cancelled and replaced with electronic form which show 37 mln, but it’s bs. since 1991 birth rate was 2 times lower than death rate. -crimea, -donbas, so rural reich population in 2020 was around 30 mln. bread consuming proves the number. since 2022 over 10 mln left the reich. now it’s ~20 mln and will be even less, if poland annex 5 or more border regions.
2.economy of malorossia and novorossia will be restored as it was done after the civil war (1917-1922) and the great patriotic war (main part of the second world war). may be less heavy industry (because border region is vulnerable for strikes) and more agriculture which is very profitable + recreation (tourism). grain trade can be compared with natural gas trade, so restoration can be done for own money.
what if it was a decoy convoy? have the oinkranians made a postage stamp yet ahahahah
i attempt be coherent –potato think better than me
do u want fries with ur leaky bag of ketchup?
time for all the nations of the world to express their miscontent towards us agressive policies with protest against us foreign bases in all the world on independance day .
ukrainian forces struck a russian s-300/400 air defense battery in belgorod oblast likely with himars on june 1 or 2. geolocated imagery published on june 3 shows 2 destroyed launchers and a damaged command post of a russian s-300/400 air defense system in a field east of kiselyovo (just north of belgorod city).
de-anglozionazification grinding on in the rump ukrapper butcher shop. chop…chop…chop and the lili-putos of natostan still don’t get it. yelp….yelp…..yalp….
their counter attack was a joke, more like rotation troops getting caught in the trottle and having to fight their way back to their burning positions or die trying with a nazi gun to their backs.
the ukrainian warriors reclaimed their property from the thieves, simple as that. let’s put the thieves in prison!
the offensive is still just marginal and even tiny compared to 2022. its not comparable in anyway.
what is the goal of the offensive? just to attrition the enemy or to secure a bufferzone of ground?
russia advances yesterday liberates another settlement
have they liberated you from your washing machine and underwear?
