▪️ Russia completes withdrawal from Kherson city to east bank of the Dnieper River;

▪️ Russia continues stated process of de-militarizing Ukraine;
▪️ US aid to Ukraine becomes increasingly unrealistic – Hawk missiles designed in the 1960s and unused for 2 decades are being “refurbished” for a lack of better options;
▪️ “Avenger” systems to be sent in small numbers (4) which are essentially Stinger missiles attached to a Hummer – after training for Ukrainian operators is completed;
▪️ Dwindling amounts of basic ammunition continue to be sent to Ukraine, prolonging the conflict, but not in quantities to even allow Ukraine to hold what it has;
▪️ As Russian forces withdrew from Kherson city, they advanced elsewhere in southern and northern Donbass.
