I know nothing on 105mm mobile howitzers,apart from they have never been used and the US have sent "test" batches to Ukraine.
These are also know as "HAWKEYE"
Anyone elaborate???

Not good.
Russia will blame Ukraine though.
 
I see Russians on a beach in Crimea close to the Belbek airbase got hit by shrapnel 5 dead - including 3 children.
More than likely shrapnel from a failed interception, but hey, newspaper's seem to jump at the behest of Russian press releases.
Yet when cafes and schools and apartments get hit in Ukraine every day - silence.
I'd like to say laziness - easy copy to cut and paste - but they don't pick up Ukrainian press releases do they?

I can remember early in the 3 day war the Russians sat on the beach there laughing and pointing at planes overhead, explosions in the distance etc.

Not laughing now are they.
 
From "The Analyst":

TORETSK LOSSES

The Russians have found and exploited a Ukrainian weak spot in the front protecting Toretsk, south of Klieshievka, and an area that has barely altered in years - right back to the 2014-15 period.
It appears the Ukrainians had withdrawn a heavy presence and after months of probing up and down the front the Russians finally found a new weak spot.
Unfortunately they managed to advance extremely quickly, by as much as two kilometres in two prongs of attack.
Ukraine isn’t saying much about it yet but alarm bells are ringing.
Depending on the forces the Russians have available, they might not fully exploit it given their resources, but will certainly try.
However it’s also been noted that they have withdrawn a number of units from the Kharkiv front due to exhaustion - with no apparent replacement. They may well be switching their focus yet again.

It will of probably been a TOR-M2.
If it misses the inbound missile,it self destructs.
