It’s amazing how all of Russia’s pundit class is spending the night watching Turkish election results, rooting for Erdogan, the man who supplied Ukraine with Bayraktars. They haven’t rooted for anyone like that since Trump in 2020.

Well, we were too drunk to go fishing in lieu of starving, so there is that. 
Yall heathens need to go Dublin and repent your anti Irish attitudes. Fine people. Singing Country Roads at 1 am at a bar was a fine experience, celebrating the first Astros WS ring on a bus at 4 am heading to the airport with a bunch of Dubliners heading to work who were happy for me was even finer.

Support vehicles have gotten a bit less love than MRAPs, IFVs, and tanks, but made up a fairly large chunk of foreign donated equipment, and serve an incredibly important role on the battlefield (especially when grabbing abandoned Russian equipment, which may be a focus soon).

If you want a deep dive on OSINT and one of the bigger guys in it

NOW AVAILABLE!I thoroughly enjoyed this discussion with @Osinttechnical - one of the leading OSINT accounts on planet earth and one of the best sources of information regarding the Ukraine War.👉https://t.co/T9ROJwos3C
Quote

In this episode, we continue our journey in the enthralling world of Open Source Intelligence with OSINT Technical, one of the leading twitter accounts for sharing publicly available information about the War in Ukraine. We explore the intriguing facets of the Russian & Ukranian military strategies, tactics, and philosophy. Our podcast further uncovers the meticulous process for verifying data and ensuring quality control in open source intelligence.

Quote

We then turn our attention to the strategic approaches of the Russian ISR and the contrasting tactics that have led to Ukraine's successes. We offer insights into the equipment differences between Ukraine and Russia and discuss the Ukrainian HIMARs. The use of drones in warfare is also a key focus, along with predictions about the future of Ukraine, and the strategic thinking behind Russia's recent invasion. Exploring the complex geopolitics involved, we analyze the relationships between Russia and other countries. We also discuss the Storm Shadow Missile and the Moscow Victory Parade, shedding light on their significance. Lastly, we recommend some excellent OSINT resources for those eager to delve deeper into this field.

Germany has really upped their game over the past week or two, with a lot more donations and then stuff like this.  Wonder if they are embarrassed by a former chancellor.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said a few words in Ukrainian during his speech in Aachen on 14 MayUkraine is Europe, and Glory to Ukraine, Olaf Scholz said during the Charlemagne Prize of Aachen 2023 award ceremony.📹WDR

Meanwhile, in France

⚡️Zelensky arrives in Paris, meets Macron.Volodymyr Zelensky will meet with French President Emmanuel Macron for a "working dinner," at which the pair will discuss "the support that France continues to provide in response to Ukraine's urgent military and humanitarian needs."

In the massive explosion in Luhansk, Minister of Interior of the occupation administration Igor Kornet was injured. Russia is less and less able to control the occupied territories.

Good news for the offensive elsewhere?

 

Ukraine's Deputy Defense Minister Hanna Maliar says that the situation in Bakhmut City and its vicinity is "very difficult," and Russians are transferring reinforcements to the city's outskirts.

 "I'm just trying to support the cause!"

I'll leave this here since the Ukraine CR thread seems to have fallen off the first page.  Just for FYI. No CR:

We need to stop telling our taxpayers we are sending billions to Ukraine.  We need to figure out how to say we are paying US defense contractors billions and keeping our own economy humming.  We are hurting our own political will.

This is useful link here because some don't go to CR as a matter of policy.

Given the D’s and R’s are actually talking on the Debt Limit, it’s a good sign that other compromise may be possible.  It’s just a matter of timing and if they can get to September when they need to do a deal on yearly spending.

The outcome of the meeting between Rishi Sunak and Zelenskyi is that the UK will send hundreds of long-range missiles and armed drones to Ukraine on top of the Storm Shadow cruise missiles announced last week, BBC writes. https://t.co/hZsbMQA8Rl

Let's not get cocksure and go down a rabbit hole on this one.

If not. you cause this forum to get off course.

Important: BBC has corrected the article in line with earlier information. The UK will provide hundreds of air defence missiles, not long-range missiles. https://t.co/M8sT8cJDlR

Actually that's confined pretty much to football and men's basketball. Outside of that we're pretty much in a golden age. Of course, that's a little like "other than that, how was the play Mrs. Lincoln?" but it's still not completely fair to throw the whole athletic program into the drink. It's pretty much the gold standard in all of college sports as an athletic program overall. 

Back to Ukraine, I'm extremely grateful to the UK for sending the Storm Shadow missiles, and the US for sending the MALDs being used. We deservedly get credit for providing the largest amount by far to help Ukraine, but the UK has regularly taken the lead in this fight in ways other countries have seemed reluctant to, and that's now under two different prime ministers. 

I'm also extremely grateful to Meloni of Italy, who has pretty much gone against the grain of both popular sentiment in Italy and with the longstanding opinions of the most powerful member of her party. 

And while I'm not entirely pleased with the results of the election in Turkiye, I'm a bit stunned a fair election can still be held there. I realize that's not directly germane to Ukraine, but rulers for life is the dynamic that Ukraine fought so bravely against, and continues to do so. What happens in Turkiye is of extreme importance. Erdogan and his party are simply not aligned long term with the West, and the direction that Ukrainian people die every day so their country can continue moving towards. I'd like to see any government formed there other than his, even if I have no illusions how effective it can be given that the only real common theme among the opposition is an "anyone but Erdogan" mentality.

Do they even have hundreds of Storm Shadow cruise missiles? I highly doubt it. I'm sure they're going deep into their stock in painful ways for their military readiness simply to supply what they're currently giving Ukraine. I'm grateful for it. It's difficult to say how critical their presence ends up being for the success of the upcoming counter offensive, but it could very well provide a huge difference in outcomes. Not just in terms of their actual effectiveness, but simply having them as a threat on the battlefield will have an outsized impact on Russian operations.
