"Ukraine is on the brink, says a senior general"



Wait, they already got the $61 billion so what is the point of this article?  It seems this is to set up the next push for the next batch of money to be sent to Ukraine.



Money and equipment aren't going to fix personnel shortages. And per Frontelligence that mobilization law hasn't even become effective yet, it won't until middle of this month. Then they're going to get all these conscripts, they won't be thrown into the front lines right away, they have to be trained first. We're talking October at earliest probably for them to start deploying additional infantry at scale.

"No safety in retreat: Ukrainian soldiers say rear defensive lines barely exist amid Russian advance"

Looks like the average number of killed Russian troops every day increased to over 1000
