Where Did Russia's Black Sea Fleet Go?
A large part of Russia's mauled Black Sea Fleet was seen leaving the port of Novorossiysk this week, with satellite images suggesting the berths of the southern Russian port had been largely emptied despite the ever-present threat posed by Ukrainian maritime drones and missiles.
The intentions of the vessels departing Novorossiysk—further from Ukrainian-controlled territory and considered safer than the Crimean ports repeatedly bombarded by Kyiv's forces—remain unclear.
But, according to open-source intelligence researchers tracking the fleet, many vessels have remained in the immediate area.

Russia Losing Artillery at Record Pace, Kyiv's Figures Show
Russia continues to lose equipment at a vast rate in its full-scale invasion, according to Ukraine whose latest figures suggest that June is on track for its biggest monthly losses of artillery systems for the whole war.
Data from Ukraine's defense ministry showed that in May, Russia had lost 1,160 artillery systems, the highest total for a month since Vladimir Putin started the invasion on February 24, 2022. It was the first time the figure had breached four figures and was well clear of the previous highest of 947 from September 2023.
But so far it looks like June will surpass that monthly record, with artillery losses in the first nine days already reaching 453, a rate if extrapolated over the month would equal 1,510.

Russia Places American Serving in Ukraine's Military on Wanted List
An American journalist-turned-spokesperson for the Ukraine Armed Forces has been placed on a Kremlin criminal "wanted" list.
Sarah Ashton-Cirillo arrived in Ukraine in March 2022 about one month after Russia's invasion of its Eastern European neighbor to cover the war as a reporter. Dubbed the first openly transgender war correspondent, she ultimately scrapped her journalism role to enlist in the Ukraine Armed Forces and worked as a combat medic prior to rising to the rank of so-called spokesperson of the Territorial Defense Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
She has been placed in Russia's criminal "wanted" database, part of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, according to Russian state-sponsored media outlet Tass. The alleged offense for which she is wanted is not specified.

Russia Issues New Threat Against US
Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned the West that Moscow could supply weapons to its adversaries.
His comments came during a meeting with foreign journalists at the Saint Petersburg International Economic Forum, where he criticized the U. S. and its European allies' delivery of long-range weapons to Ukraine.
The U. S. has been a strong ally of Ukraine since Russia launched a full-scale invasion of the country in February 2022, which the U. S. State Department has called a "premeditated, unprovoked, and unjustified war." The U. S. has provided Ukraine with approximately $51 billion in military assistance since late February 2022, according to a State Department press release from May 24.
Last week, President Biden gave Kyiv limited approval to use some American weapons for "counter-fire purposes" targets near the border of the protection of Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, following a new Russian offensive on May 10, the State Department confirmed.

Kyiv's forces destroyed parts of a Russian S-300/400 air defense system in the Russian region which borders Ukraine, likely using a U. S.-donated High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), the U. S.-based think tank, the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), said in its latest analysis.
The strike came shortly after the Biden administration moved to allow Ukraine to use some weapons to strike certain targets inside Russia.

Kremlin Issues Stark US Statement as Relations Hit New Low
The Kremlin has issued a stark statement about the U. S. as relations with Washington hit a new low over Ukraine's use of American-supplied weapons on Russian territory.
Russian President Vladimir Putin's press secretary, Dmitry Peskov, called the United States "an enemy" reportedly for the first time during a press briefing on Tuesday.
Agentstvo, an independent Russian investigative site, said that neither Peskov nor the Russian president has ever called the U. S. or other countries the Kremlin considers to be "unfriendly" an enemy of Russia.
"We are now an enemy country for them, just as they are for us," Peskov told reporters when commenting on claims made by former American intelligence officer Scott Ritter that he was barred from traveling to Russia and had his passport confiscated by border officials.

How Putin's Kharkiv Gamble Backfired
Russia's new offensive into Ukraine's northeastern Kharkiv region has done what months of lobbying from President Volodymyr Zelensky could not: secured Kyiv's ability to fire advanced Western weapons at Moscow's forces within their borders.
The Russian drive into the Kharkiv border region—where fighting is ongoing some 15 miles north of Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city and an important political, economic, and cultural center—has prompted Kyiv's NATO backers into a flurry of diplomatic and military activity, with the result that Ukrainian cross-border strikes are now ravaging Russian forces operating in the Belgorod region.
The Russian operation along the frontier has slowed to a familiarly plodding pace, with Ukraine's rapid deployment of reserves seemingly having headed off the danger of a significant breakthrough toward Kharkiv, a major strategic prize.
