Russian soldiers run for their lives as Ukraine forces target troops in Donbas

Ukrainian troops target Russian soldiers - who they call "uninvited tourists" - in the Donbas region. The footage shows a number of people, reportedly Russian soldiers, walking single file into trees near to where a Ukrainian mine goes off. The images were obtained from the K-2 Battle Group, which is part of the 54th Mechanized Brigade, which has been fighting in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine since 2014. The K-2 Battle Group said: "We continue to show the voyage of uninvited 'tourists' on foot through the streets of Marinka, in the Donetsk region. "A crowd of 'tourists' walked by looking around, but they did not see the surprise on the road, which was set by the guys from the reconnaissance group K2 with the help of the no-less-famous 'construction' brigade). "The surprise worked and the uninvited 'tourists' did not like it [...]." They signed off with the now famous slogan "Slava Ukraini!", which means "Glory to Ukraine!" in English. Russian troops invaded Ukraine on 24th February in what the Kremlin is still calling a "special military operation". Today marks the 104th day of the campaign. From 24th February to 6th June, the total combat losses of Russian troops stand at around 31,250 personnel, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The Ukrainian military also claims that Russia has lost 1,386 tanks, 3,400 armoured fighting vehicles, 690 artillery systems, 207 multiple launch rocket systems, 96 anti-aircraft systems, 211 warplanes, 176 helicopters, 2,395 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, 13 vessels, 551 unmanned aerial vehicles, 53 units of special equipment, and 125 cruise missiles. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian Centre for Strategic Communications (StratCom) said on 6th June that Russian Major General Roman Kutuzov was killed in a battle near Popasna in the Luhansk region. This has now been confirmed by Russian state media. The United Kingdom and the United States have announced that they are sending long-range missile systems to Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has warned of more attacks in Ukraine if the West sends long-range weapons. Russian missiles struck Kyiv on Sunday in the first assault on the Ukrainian capital in weeks. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said that Russian attacks on the cities of Severodonetsk and Lysychansk have turned them into "dead cities". But he added that Ukrainian forces could still hold Severodonetsk despite being outnumbered. Russia's ambassador to the United Nations has walked out of a Security Council meeting after his country was blamed for triggering a global food crisis.
