    Here's a link to What's hot in real world news? - Thread 11.0, followed by a fresh news item:

    https://www.chesscanada.info/forum/s...ws-Thread-11-0

    youtube.com/watch: Update from Ukraine | Ruzzian forced were kicked out from Important positions | Revenge is near - 27 June 2023 [plus: some Ruzzians reduced to fighting in bare feet due to shortages...]:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L622EZfQtaE&t=603s

    A more sobering view is that well-prepared Russian minefields are slowing the Ukrainians:
    youtube.com/US COMBAT VET REACTS/watch: Putin: Even After Coup, I Still Need Wagner Fighters ! 27 June 23 Ukraine Daily Update:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEi6AKbCLbk&t=218s

    Fwiw, here's a historic WWII battle where de-mining operations were key [referred to as Operation Lightfoot, a sick joke by Monty]:
    wiki/Second_Battle_of_El_Alamein:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second..._of_El_Alamein

    Another viewpoint on Ukraine minefields issue [notably tied to Ukraine's lack of airplanes, as not provided from west earlier] and why Ukraine should likely succeed anyway [albeit slower than desired]:
    youtube.com/UKRAINE MATTERS/watch: Ukraine SECURES BRIDGEHEAD: Dam Destruction Backfires - Ukraine War Map Update 28/06/2023:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3910LYU_hOU

    On the other hand, in the following it is noted that Zelensky has commented that the pace of events is now picking up:
    youtube.com/watch: Ukrainian counter-offensive advancing on all fronts, President Zelensky says – BBC News:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUsiS3NX4qM

    aljazeera.com/news/2023/6/27/dont-see-why-not-china-envoy-on-backing-ukraines-91-borders:

    https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/...nes-91-borders

    telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/06/29/general-armageddon-arrested-in-post-coup-purge:

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/202...st-coup-purge/

    telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/06/29/Ukraine-Russia war latest: Kremlin builds dam 'to flood Ukrainian counter-offensive target':

    https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-ne...-strike-putin/

    Now, a rather pessimistic view of events:
    youtube.com/2jul2023/watch: Update from Ukraine | Is it possible? - How the Counterattack is ongoing? Why is it slow? Can Ukraine win [apparently not until next summer, when Ukraine will have plenty of western planes and able pilots]?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0QR...G09G_Q&index=1

    On second thought:
    youtube.com/3jul2023/watch: Update from Ukraine | Ukraine plans the Big strike on the south | We go all in:

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-BBvg7WQR0

    theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/30/russia-has-approved-plan-blow-up-zaporizhzhia-nuclear-plant-claims-ukraine [Russia reducing its presence at plant]:

    https://www.theguardian.com/world/20...claims-ukraine

    A more comforting view:
    youtube.com/sky_news/watch: Ukraine War: How close are we to a nuclear disaster [apparently not so much, as Putin it seems would want to take a long view of the conflict, if he is to rebuild the old Soviet empire]?

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtwgHVgA5vM
