Images from Storozheve, which have been recently released by Ukraine's forces this week, show bodies scattered in fields and along the roadside among the burned-out armoured vehicles. The gruesome scenes depicted the ferocity of combat as Ukrainian troops recaptured Storozheve and other villages in the last few days as part of a counteroffensive in southern and eastern Ukraine. The village had been occupied by Russian forces since March 2022, one month after Russia's full invasion of Ukraine. Around 50 Russian soldiers were killed in a'mopping-up mission,' and four others were arrested, according to the soldiers.

Due to the fact of clandestine operations, the Secret Operations Forces (SOF) in Ukraine and Russia's Special Operations Forces (SOF)'s operation (SOF) and their involvement in the on-going war are murky. However, it is also evident that the two warring countries are deploying their elite units in very different ways. Though Ukraine - whose commando units are more closely related to western forces such as the SAS - are sending their special forces to carry out clandestine missions, Russia is using them as blunt instruments in ground attacks as a means of securing standard, poorly educated infantry units. As a result, leaked intelligence reports indicates that Russia has lost significant numbers of its unidentified troops. In comparison, there have been indications that Ukraine's SOF has been wreaking havoc behind enemy lines. MailOnline examines how Ukrainian and Russian special forces fighters clashed on the streets of Kyiv during the early stages of Putin's invasion, revealing how their paths diverged from there.

The revelations have also shown how deep intelligence networks have penetrated Kremlin's own intelligence service and military command structure. The documents also contain a damning analysis of Russia's internal military capabilities, which would add to the Kremlin's own embarrayment. According to the report, it would take Moscow years to restore Spetsnaz units to their former glory after they were sent to Ukraine's frontlines.

According to a video posted on social media over the weekend, some Ukrainian soldiers on the frontlines are now using explosive-packed remote-controlled cars, also known as unmanned ground vehicles, to hit Russian targets. The video, which was first posted on YouTube as part of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade, appears to depict Ukrainian soldiers preparing a remote-controlled vehicle for combat before handing it off. The troops are then seen controlling the vehicle's speed on a cellphone, causing it to explode outside what seems to be a Russian tank.

Since the despot ordered partial mobilization last month in a dramatic increase of the botched invasion, the anti-Kremlin movement has only increased, with thousands of people fleeing the country or arrested for anti-war demonstrations. Vitaly Votanovsky, a Russian Air Force lieutenant-colonel, has been arrested multiple times for photographing the graves of deceased Russian soldiers. Though criticizing Putin and the war is extremely risky, with protesters facing potential prison sentences in sham trials, a small number of other military veterans are joining the growing chorus of opposition.

Dmitry Baltrukov (left), a 43-year-old municipal deputy for Putin's birthplace in Smolninskoye in St. Petersburg, has been trying to depose the Russian tyrant from office last month. Thousands of Russian troops were killed and the country's economy has been devastated as a result of Putin's conflict in Ukraine, according to them. Baltrukov was fined 44,000 rubles (£675) for "discrediting" the army under a new law to crack down on anti-war protests.

The Magpies were supposed to kick off at Anfield at 4 p.m., the only Premier League game scheduled for that day as part of Sky Sports' Super Sunday coverage. Given that the previous two meetings on Merseyside had ended 4-3 to the hosts, it was a highly awaited fixture.

Ukraine has used a fleet of decoys resembling advanced US missile systems (HIMARS) to compel Russian forces to spend expensive long-range cruise missiles on simulated targets. The Ukrainian decoys are made of wood but can be distinguished from an artillery battery by the lens of Russian drones, which connect their locations to naval cruise missile carriers in the Black Sea.

Many Russian soldiers were on top of the soviet-era BMP (an infantry combat vehicle) as a massive explosion erupted underneath it, according to video of the mishap. The explosion took place as BMP pulled between two other identical looking Russian cars, which seemed to have met a similar fate. Despite the warnings, the vehicle barrelled through the wreckages before blowing up. The video was shot on the outskirts of Yakovlivka, a Ukrainian village found in the eastern Donetsk Oblast by a drone. The area is in the Russian-controlled Donbas, where heavy combat continues in the midst of months of stalemate. As Russia blamed saboteurs for explosions at one of its military bases in Moscow-annexed Crimea, a video of the incident has surfaced. For the first time since Putin launched his invasion in February, the peninsula has been struck this month.
