Russian Commanders Killed in Ukraine Fighting

Two Russian military officers, Col. Vyacheslav Makarov and Col. Yevgeny Brovko, were killed in action while leading Russian troops in the Donetsk region of Ukraine. The Ukrainian military has been able to capture more than 10 Russian positions near Bakhmut, which remains the "epicenter of fighting." Russian targets in the occupied city of Luhansk have also been hit in missile strikes in the past several days, and unconfirmed reports suggest that Russia may have had four military aircraft shot down over its own territory on Saturday.
