According to the president, it is unprofitable for Russia to use torture against the Ukrainian military, since they have become "public prisoners."

15:35 Bloomberg writes that Turkey and Russia have agreed on a roadmap for the safe export of Ukrainian grain and unblocking the port in Odessa. However, in Ukraine there are still doubts whether to agree to this plan. In particular, Turkey offered to help clear the area around the Odessa port, as well as escort Ukrainian grain carriers to a certain point in the Black Sea. There they should be taken under control by Russian ships and escorted to the Bosphorus. Russia also wants to get the right to inspect ships.

15:29 Turkey and Ukraine discussed the issues of ensuring the safe passage of Turkish bulk carriers, which are awaiting departure in Ukrainian ports, the Turkish Defense Ministry said.

After the destruction of three landing craft of the Raptor type and a landing craft of the Serna type, the enemy grouping has up to 15 landing craft of various types. There is still a risk of landing tactical troops and sabotage and reconnaissance groups on the Odessa coast, especially in favorable weather conditions in the summer.
In addition, the Russian Defense Ministry imitates the organization of so-called "humanitarian corridors" supposedly to withdraw civilian foreign ships from Ukrainian ports. An attempt to play on humanity may actually be nothing more than an opportunity for enemy ships to approach the Ukrainian coast under the cover of civilian ships, the Ministry of Defense notes.

- automotive equipment and tankers - 2395 (+35),
- special equipment - 53 (+0).
08:49 British intelligence reports that early on the morning of June 5, Russian Kh-101 air-launched cruise missiles hit the railway infrastructure in Kiev, apparently in an attempt to disrupt the supply of Western military equipment to forward Ukrainian units.
In the Donbas, heavy fighting continues in Severodonetsk, and Russian troops continue to advance towards Slovyansk as part of an attempt to encircle Ukrainian forces.
At sea, after the loss of the cruiser Moskva, Russian forces probably transferred several air defense systems to Zmeiny Island, including the Tor and Pantsir C1 systems. This weapon is intended for air defense of Russian warships operating in the area of Zmeiny Island. The activities of the Russian Federation on this island contribute to the blockade of the Ukrainian coast and prevent the resumption of maritime trade, including the export of Ukrainian grain, analysts say.
08:30 Ukrainian air defense forces shot down a Russian missile over the Poltava region, Poltava Mayor Oleksandr Mamay said.
08:07 A meeting of the UN Security Council on Ukraine will take place today. The start is scheduled for 17:00 Kyiv time. According to the organization's secretariat, the focus will be on "conflict-related sexual violence and human trafficking in the context of the war in Ukraine." Pramila Patten, UN Special Representative on Sexual Violence in Conflict, will address this issue. The head of the European Council, Charles Michel, will also be present.
07:26 The invaders are trying to advance on Slavyansk, from artillery of various calibers they fired at civilian infrastructure in the areas of the settlements of Bolshaya Kamyshevakha, Vernopolye, Dubrovno, Novaya Dmitrovka, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports in the morning report .
On the territory of Belarus, along the border of Ukraine, the presence of individual units of the armed forces of the Russian Federation, armed with Iskander-M operational-tactical missile systems, Pantsir-S1 anti-aircraft gun systems, S-400 anti-aircraft missile systems and operational-tactical aviation aircraft, remains.
In the Bakhmut direction, the enemy fired at the positions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from mortars, cannon and rocket artillery in the areas of the settlements of Zolote, Orekhovoe, Gornoye, Vrubovka, Klinovo, Belogorovka, Pokrovskoye. Attack aircraft were used.
04:14 The American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) believes that the successful counterattacks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Severodonetsk indicate a decrease in the combat strength of the Russians. Ukrainian counterattacks are likely to continue drawing the attention of Russian forces into Luhansk Oblast and therefore leave vulnerabilities in Russian defenses in Kharkiv Oblast and along the southern axis. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are likely trying to use Russia's concentration on Severodonetsk to launch counterattacks on other lines of advance, analysts say.
