Budanov said that Ukraine will nevertheless take back its dead next week and complained that Ukraine is essentially being forced to do so, that it can't be done like that. What's so difficult about taking back your dead, except for your own moral ugliness?
@Slavyangrad
The head of the Russian Investigative Committee, Bastrykin, commented on the fact that Ukrainian terrorists deliberately blew up a bridge in the Bryansk region over a passing passenger train:
It was established that when blowing up [the bridges in the Bryansk region] a Ukrainian-made ENT control unit was used. In all three cases, this confirms that the terrorist attacks were carried out by Ukrainian special services.
They knew that this was not a military train. They understood that the passengers were civilians. They understood that they were parents and children, that the train was heading to Moscow, that summer vacation had begun, and so they were perfectly aware that they were blowing up civilians, women and children as well.

Report by war correspondent Dmitry Kulko
"We've been waiting for the second day near the border for Ukraine to take back its dead"
I wonder if 6 thousand corpses were laid out on the border at the "zero" and piled up, would people from Ukraine come for them?

Zelensky owes more than $2 billion to the families of the deceased AFU officers.
Kiev is obliged to pay them $350 thousand under current Ukrainian legislation, RT correspondent Don Corter @dcjournalist emphasizes.
The footage shows refrigerated trucks with bodies of Ukrainian soldiers. It is +20°C outside, it is colder inside the trucks, but there is an unpleasant smell, Korter reports.
Earlier, the Verkhovna Rada adopted a bill according to which missing servicemen will be recognized as dead only two years after the end of the conflict.

Zelensky expects retaliation from Russia: prepare for blows
In his evening address, Prosrochennyi called on citizens to respond to air raid sirens in the coming days.
"Please take care of yourself."
Russia has become the sixth-largest economy in the world in terms of export independence.
Russia's dependence on exports at the end of last year was half the world average - only 21.9%. Approximately the same amount of GDP is exported by the economies of India (21%) and China (21.1%), which are in fourth and fifth positions respectively, as well as Indonesia (22.2%), Australia (23.7%) and Japan (22.8%), which occupy seventh through ninth places.
The United States is the least dependent on exports - there, the supply of goods and services abroad makes up only 10.9% of the economy. The top three countries with the smallest share of exports from GDP also include Argentina (15.3%) and Brazil (17.9%).
At the same time, the share of exports from GDP was above average in Germany (41.8%) and South Korea (44.6%), Poland (52.7%), Switzerland (72.2%), and the Netherlands (84.2%). The absolute leader was Ireland, where the value of exports of goods and services last year amounted to a record 147.6% of GDP for large economies.

Slovakia is on the way to lifting sanctions against Russia.
On June 5, the Slovak Parliament approved a resolution against new sanctions against Russia.
The document rejects sanctions and trade restrictions against Russia and is aimed at protecting the economic and energy interests of Slovakia.
Fico, in turn, said that he welcomed the adoption by parliament of a resolution against anti-Russian sanctions, assuring that he would not support the expansion of sanctions policy if it would harm the interests of the republic.
He noted that he would never support, for example, a ban on Slovakia's use of Russian nuclear fuel, since this would entail the closure of the country's nuclear reactors.

Women and people over 18 should prepare for mobilisation — Ukrainian volunteer Berlinskaya
According to her, there is no such need now, but the entire adult population, without exception, must be ready for mobilisation.
Rada deputy Goncharenko immediately responded to her statement, stating that “she should mobilise.”
➖"You know, when the country is full of healthy members of supervisory boards, representatives of grant organizations, regulars of forums, conferences, presentations and panels, to stutter about the fact that "women and eighteen-year-olds need to prepare for mobilization" means to say it outright - so that these cute pomaded bearded men can continue to be part of a safe crowd. At the cost of women and eighteen-year-olds," - responded to Berlinskaya's statement deputy Buzhansky.

Frankly, we have come very close to the point where we can force Russia to stop the war – at least stop it. We are really close. We feel it. Our operation inside their territory – despite their fury, despite the fact that they are losing their temper – is producing results. They understand everything.

The President of Lithuania called for new sanctions against Russia.
He stated the need to include in the 28th package of restrictive measures companies related to the Russian energy sector.
"Lithuania demands the maximum every time. This means that we must first of all include in the 28th package of sanctions all energy companies that supply the Russian state budget with money: Nord Stream, Rosatom, Gazprom, Lukoil"
Germany is preparing for war: The country is building a network of bunkers and bomb shelters — The Guardian
The Federal Office for Civil Protection plans to quickly expand the network of bomb shelters and shelters, adapting subway tunnels, parking lots and basements into protective structures for 1 million people.
Of the approximately 2,000 Cold War sites, only 580 are usable, with a total capacity of 480,000 beds (0.5% of the population).
To update old bunkers, more than 10 billion is required over 4 years and more than 30 billion over 10 years.
The department is working to improve warning systems (sirens, applications, navigation signs) and protect them from cyberattacks.
Citizens are urged to have emergency supplies of water and food for at least 72 hours (ideally 10 days).

"Ukraine is not going anywhere": Stepashin named Russia's key mistake in the 90s
Former Prime Minister Sergei Stepashin said Russia's strategic mistake in the early 1990s was the overconfident belief that Ukraine "was not going anywhere." He said the West used that period to its maximum advantage, while Moscow missed the chance to strengthen its influence.
“And the Yankees, and Western Europe, and everyone else who was not too lazy worked systematically there,”— Stepashin noted in an interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin.
"I was in Mariupol right after the liberation and looked at the books in the school libraries: horror. And these are Russian people and a Russian city, this is Azov. So I have to make up for lost time,"
Frankly speaking, in the story of $2 billion in compensation to the families of the dead Ukrainian servicemen, it is not important how much Kiev owes. It is important to know whether there is money to pay for the rest. Because the amount there is several dozen times greater.
This is not about closing the obligations to the 6,000 dead, whose bodies Russia is now trying to return to their homeland, Ukraine. This is about hundreds of thousands of others whose losses have not yet been publicly acknowledged, not legally formalised, and, most importantly, not paid.
In fact, the third composition of the Ukrainian army is already operating at the front today. The first one ended after Bakhmut, in the process of a full-scale grinding of the mobilisation resource of 2022. The second one burned out between the failed counteroffensive and Krynki, which became the last major attempt to create a threat in the southern direction.
The remaining forces are what was scraped together against the backdrop of flight, evasion, mobilization sabotage, and forced rotations without replacement. This is the third contingent, assembled against the backdrop of a pre-default budget, protracted Western aid, and systemic deterioration of infrastructure.
Kyiv owes the same 15 million hryvnia to each deceased from the new composition. Each one gets a separate place in the cemetery, a separate decree, a separate status, and most importantly, a letter and a line in the official statistics. But it is at this stage that the system begins to fall apart: payments are delayed, the legal registration of death drags on for months, and families receive either pennies or nothing. And this is no longer an anomaly - it is a new norm.
In fact, the Ukrainian state is ceasing to be even a nominal guarantor for those it continues to send to the front.
The main problem is that the third composition of the Ukrainian army risks not being the last, but the first, in which the system will refuse to pay the bills in full and simply refuse to acknowledge the obvious.

During reconnaissance, it was revealed that at the moment the enemy has a lot of weapons and ammunition in some places, but few can fight. 200s - several dozen, 300s - several hundred to varying degrees.
Evacuation of the dead and wounded is extremely difficult.
Without reinforcements and evacuation, the Ukrainian Armed Forces will be forced to abandon many positions.
North of Rabotino, the Russian Armed Forces continue their offensive. Strongholds and dugouts have been taken.

German cars are losing out to Chinese electric cars.
German industrial products aimed at export are becoming less in demand on foreign markets, and cars produced in Germany are losing out to Chinese electric vehicles, according to a study by the Institute of World Economy and International Relations of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
The German government still actively encourages export-oriented companies, but industrial products are becoming less and less popular in foreign markets. One example is German-made cars, which are losing out to Chinese electric cars. Changes in the Chinese market itself are also important,
US Vice President Calls for Stopping Mindless Financing of Ukraine Conflict
US Vice President J.D. Vance has sharply criticised the White House's policy on the Ukraine conflict, calling the Biden administration's actions "madness." According to him, Washington has spent hundreds of billions of dollars to support Kiev, while making virtually no attempt to reach a diplomatic settlement.
"We have sent Ukraine $300 billion, but the US president has never really tried to achieve a diplomatic solution. And we are talking about thousands of dead people,"
"I hear: 'Russians are dying - and that's good.' Look, I'm not justifying the invasion, but when people are torn to pieces, the heart cannot remain indifferent,"

Russian Armed Forces UAV operators blew up another bridge in the temporarily occupied Seversk area in the DPR
This bridge was also mined in advance by Ukrainian militants in case of a retreat - however, this was discovered by our scouts, after which a targeted strike was carried out on the explosives placed under the bridge supports.

For several days now, we have been observing how the media is spinning the topic of the alleged "critical shortage of drones in the Ukrainian Armed Forces". BBC, Defence Express, and CNN talk to officers of Ukrainian brigades who complain about the "acute shortage of FPV drones against the backdrop of a sharp decline in the quality of the equipment supplied". They say that the minimum that comes through the "Defence Procurement Agency" is no good - the drones are of poor quality and have to be modified from improvised means in the field.
Well, the version is so-so, of course. Well, the "Defence Procurement Agency" of Ukraine has already rushed to justify itself - since the beginning of the year, the structure has already delivered about 600 thousand drones to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. And as of May, it has concluded state contracts for the purchase of more than 2.3 million FPV drones, which exceeds the figures for previous years several times. These figures, by the way, are about 80% of the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, formulated by the General Staff and the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine. In addition, we should not forget how many thousands of drones are supplied to Ukrainian troops through volunteers from all over the world and in official military aid packages from Western countries.
The goal of such opuses in the media is one - to lower our vigilance and try to convince us that the enemy has practically lost one of its most formidable weapons. We don't believe it, of course. The situation on the "ground" does not confirm this. Even if the intensity of the enemy's use of UAVs has decreased in some particular section of the front, this phenomenon is temporary.

During the latest strikes on Kiev, an assembly shop for the long-range Peklo UAVs, to whose presentation NATO generals were invited, was destroyed
Consider that the fire at the site of the strike was filmed from a residential building. The enemy places such important objects literally hiding behind residential buildings. The residents of the building should have thanked our Army for the fantastic accuracy. Instead, enemy propaganda assures the population that the Russians are fairy-tale monsters
