🇺🇦🤝🇵🇱«Poland will never cease its efforts to support Ukraine's independence,» Minister of National Defense Mariusz Błaszczak during the celebration of the Constitution Day

🗣«This anniversary has not always been easy to celebrate. During the russian and German occupations, it was illegal, and some of our citizens risked their lives to demonstrate their commitment to Polishness (...) Today, it is Ukraine that is fighting for its existence, sovereignty and freedom. Poland will never give up its efforts to achieve this goal,» the Deputy Prime Minister said.

🗯«The difficult security situation on NATO's eastern flank caused by russia's aggression against Ukraine has changed the landscape of Polish-American defense relations. <...> Poland, the United States and other allies have demonstrated solidarity, unity and unprecedented support. I am convinced that we will continue these efforts until Ukraine succeeds,» the official added.

🇺🇸 Lloyd Austin, the U.S. Secretary of Defense, also attended the reception and noted that Poland's contribution has made it possible to do so much to protect Ukraine:

💭«Two weeks ago, we were at Ramstein for the last meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group. Once again, Poland has been a leader in helping Ukraine improve its military capabilities. Indeed, without Poland's extraordinary contribution, we would never have been able to do so much to defend Ukraine against russia's brutal aggression,» Austin said in his speech.

🇲🇩«Today, we are safe only thanks to Ukraine,» President of Moldova Maia Sandu

💭«They (Muscovy - ed.) would like to recreate the Soviet Union. They want to bring back the old days. And we don't want that. Moldova was part of the buffer zone for 30 years, and for us it meant poverty, corruption, bad governance, emigration. We want to be part of the democratic world,» Sandu said in the FT article.

👀The Moldovan president also commented on the February protests calling for the overthrow of the government:

🗣Russia has always been trying to control Moldova <...> So when they saw that they could no longer use energy to blackmail us, they decided to take other measures, including street protests, using social difficulties. . They failed and changed again. I do not think russia's plan is realistic, but it continues to undermine our efforts.»

🤔Sandu noted that more details of the protests would come to light over time.

🇵🇱🇷🇺Poland to demand EU sanctions on imports of russian agricultural products to Europe

🗣This was announced by the Permanent Representative of Poland to the EU Andrzej Sadoś.

💭«We believe that sanctions against russian agricultural products should be imposed immediately, if only because of the problems associated with imports of Ukrainian products to the EU. At the moment, Europe is not in danger of breaking the agricultural supply chain. Quite the contrary. We have a problem with surpluses. We are currently solving this problem by significantly increasing imports of agricultural products from Ukraine,» the diplomat added.

🫡 "Terror" battalion was tasked with clearing a line of trenches along the supply road to Bakhmut, controlled by the f***ers

It was necessary to reach the enemy's dugout, eliminate the personnel, occupy and gain a foothold on a strategically important line. The task was accomplished.

Situation on the frontlines as of May 6, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — localized fighting continues along the contact line. The enemy intensified the use of MLRS.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — there have been some recent updates in Bahmut.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — localized fighting continues, but no changes have been recorded.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — artillery shelling is taking place on both sides.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. Discussions are ongoing among the enemy about replacing wagner militants with "Akhmat-tea" militants. It is objectively shameful for the military formation, which many ratings call the second strongest in the world, that someone else's pocket armies are performing their tasks on a responsible section of the front. Time will tell which fuckers will be fighting in Bakhmut.

🫡 We would like to note the effective actions of the 3rd Assault Brigade with the support of the 80th Air Assault Brigade. In addition, Zelenskyy awarded the honorary distinction "For Courage and Bravery" to 56th Motorized Brigade, 14th Mechanized Brigade and 10th Mountain Assault Brigade "Edelweiss".

🏚 Bakhmut is a ghost city...

🔥 It is always an honor to fight the enemy on their territory. This is not the first time the Haydamaky battalion has done this

Situation on the frontlines as of May 8, 2023

▶️ On the Belarusian and Siverskyi direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Svatove direction — localized fighting continues along the contact line.

▶️ On the Bakhmut direction — the situation in Bakhmut has been updated. The front line is along Vyzvolyteli Donbasu, Chaikovskoho and Robochy streets. The enemy is storming the western part of the city. The main task of the katsaps now is to penetrate the multi-storey buildings and gain a foothold there. The enemy will not succeed in capturing Bakhmut entirely on May 9.

▶️ On the Avdiivka direction — fighting continues north of Avdiivka. No changes have been observed in this area.

▶️ On the Zaporizhzhia direction — no changes.

▶️ On the Tavria direction — no changes.

🗂 Analytical note. Fighting continues for the western part of Bakhmut. The enemy has significantly weakened recently, but due to a large reserve of human resources, they manage to maintain the initiative on many frontlines. Often, the price of this initiative is daily assaults on our positions using human waves, and this is not only about Bakhmut.

🔄 The map will be updated tomorrow.

🇺🇦 One of the videos of the 3rd Assault Brigade shows footage of the assault on the positions of the 72nd russian mechanized brigade west of Klishchiyivka

📹 Judging by the video, a tank supported the attack on our side, while the enemy had a sufficient amount of equipment, although it didn't help them. We mentioned these events in a summary on Saturday, but without specifics. By the way, earlier, the enemy's 72nd Brigade was spotted near Vuhledar in the area of responsibility of our 72nd Mechanized Brigade.
