Development of the fighting (Day 104): A prime example of how Western weapons can destroy the Russians’ plans – Diary N

The Russians attacked howitzers from Norway, Ukrainian howitzers returned it several times. Why Western howitzers are so important. There is a constant struggle in Sjevjerodonetsk. The Ukrainian attack on Cherson is advancing. A micro-story about Sviatohorsk, one of the last towns north of Siver Donetsk under Ukrainian control. Map of the day – where Russian missiles landed. Videos of the day – Russian reinforcements go to the front; a fascinating video from a Ukrainian drone who filmed attacking Ukrainian planes; interesting Ukrainian MiG-29. Even today, we bring a summary of the situation on the battlefield, compiled from information from various ministries of defense and independent analysts. The series also features the observations of Russian nationalist and criminal Igor Strelkov (Girkin), who was a key figure in the outbreak of the war in 2014, but in addition to the success of the Russian army on his profile on the Russian social network VKontakte, he writes openly about its defeats and problems. The information in this text is a summary of the results of the fighting on Tuesday, June 7. The current situation in some places may be different. An overview of confirmed losses is at the end of the article. The howitzers made the Russians a really big boom in a place where they felt safe. There is constant talk of Western arms supplies to Ukraine. Self-propelled howitzers attract a lot of attention, as they are the largest, heaviest and so far (until the arrival of the Himars rocket launchers) the most effective technique that the Western allies send to the Ukrainian army. Until the effectiveness of Western weapons comes in handy, a short story of a self-propelled belt howitzer M109 from Norway. On Tuesday, a video from a Russian drone that recorded the battery of these howitzers during Russian retaliatory fire appeared. A fire can be seen at the site of one of them after the attack. It is not possible to determine whether the howitzer itself or the ammunition loaded in its vicinity is on fire. However, it is only a matter of time before the Russians will destroy Western weapons as well. It is necessary. In war, it is expected that the enemy will destroy your weapons during it. However, this does not mean that it is a mistake to send them to the Ukrainians. #Ukraine: A battery of three Ukrainian M109A3GN self-propelled howitzers was shelled with cluster munitions (likely 9M27K of BM-27 Uragan MRL) by the Russian army – one of the howitzers can be seen burning, thus highly likely destroyed, others may have sustained light damage. pic.twitter.com/TbcfIyHLmk – 🇺🇦 Ukraine Weapons Tracker (@UAWeapons) June 7, 2022 But why are howitzers like these Norwegian ones so extremely important and why Ukraine will also get Slovak Zuzana 2? I can do exactly what the video below shows. According to some unconfirmed claims, the French Caesar howitzers may be the “perpetrators” in this case. But even if they weren’t, it’s secondary. What matters is what the scene tells us about the impact of this type of weapon on the course of the war and why Ukraine needs them as much as possible.
