Looks like Russia started its summer offensive in Kharkiv.
Ukraine says it repelled Russian bid to cross border
The attempt came during an attack on a town in the northeastern Kharkiv region, says the military.www.bbc.com
Except they weren't repelled, even Ukrainian maps are showing it.

They had installed approx 2 additional brigade size units in Donetsk oblastj area while they yet aren't used in combat...Yea i expect push in east, this is just flank maneuver imo
They only committed a few brigades, so I think they're trying to establish a buffer zone to Belegrod. This make it more difficult for Ukraine to shell the city and conduct cross border raids. There are not enough troops to take Kharkiv.Yea i expect push in east, this is just flank maneuver imo
COLOGNE, Germany — The German government will buy three HIMARS launchers from U.S. military stocks and give them to Ukraine, Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said in Washington.
The swap essentially follows through on a weapons transfer workaround designed when the fate of a $61 billion bill for military aid to Ukraine was still iffy in Congress. Lawmakers eventually passed the measure in late April following months of uncertainty amid resistance from isolationist Republicans aligned with ex-President Trump.
“The decision of Congress has overtaken us, but we’re sticking with it,” Pistorius told reporters on May 9, referring to the planned purchase that will cost Berlin roughly $30 million, as Der Spiegel reported.
They will attempt to take any area, village they will be able to take ....this month will pressure a lot. To use time window before Ukr next month will get more . .these military supplies...They only committed a few brigades, so I think they're trying to establish a buffer zone to Belegrod.

You are surprised someone doesn't want to possibly die for 3k a month?Russia is paying $3000 USD per month in troop salary. That's roughly 3 times the average monthly wage in China. I'm surprised more doesn't sign up.
The average monthly pay in China is 29,300 Yuan (Chinese Yuan), which, using the exchange rate that was in effect in July 2021, is comparable to 4,534 USD (US dollars) in the United StatesRussia is paying $3000 USD per month in troop salary. That's roughly 3 times the average monthly wage in China. I'm surprised more doesn't sign up.
