#Ukraine Weekend Update 74: Ukraine is Holding with a Major Ammunition Shortfall by #PhillipsPOBrien

"... after months and months of massive 🇷🇺 fire advances... the line is still only shifting in tiny amounts... Of course, at some point if 🇺🇦 gets no ammunition, even this will end. What they are doing now is remarkable, but it can't last forever. That is why what happens in the 🇺🇸 House of Representatives and with the 🇨🇿 plan to purchase shells is so important."

#Ukraine Tagesüberblick 17.8. by @Strien (German)

"Infantry and artillery losses declining... Despite the high number of infantry fighting vehicles (18), this probably means fewer 🇷🇺 attacks - little fire support = little 🇺🇦 counter-battery fire... the official report that there are terrain gains S Uroschaine is understated rather than exaggerated... more fighting in and around Robotine, deployment of Challenger, Marder and Stryker confirmed."
