Why am I beginning to think that the Russian army unit pulling out of Bakhmut is a prelude to leaving Bakhmut to the Wagner group alone and then blaming the whole disaster on Prigozhin and them when the Ukrainians take Bakhmut back.

They are hoping that Wagner gets encircled and destroyed. The nail that sticks out gets hammered.

There's been a bunch of other inflatable decoys made locally or sold to Ukraine.
Apart from tanks, the most common decoys are for air defense installations, MLRS and towed artillery.
Main threat is the Lancet loitering munition.

I like how one of the final aircraft designs of the firm founded by the Ukrainian and Armenian team of Artem Mikoyan and Mikhail Gurevich is being globally crowd sourced to smack down Russia. I expect the pair would be both horrified at Russia's action and ironically pleased that a MiG is leading Ukraine's air war.
Poland Has Provided Ukraine with 10 MiG-29 Fighters: Minister
WARSAW --- Poland has provided Ukraine with 10 MiG-29 aircraft, Mariusz Błaszczak, Polish Deputy PM and Minister of Defence said during his visit in...www.defense-aerospace.com
I don't suppose Ukraine will have any interest postwar in continuing to develop and produce its MiG-35 successor. Mikoyan MiG-35 - Wikipedia. Postwar it will be all NATO types, which makes sense, but the MiG-29 has served Ukraine heroically.

UK "is supplying" Storm Shadow to Ukraine. This, IMHO, is a step-change in capabilities since Storm Shadow is a very capable cruise missile:

UK confirms supply of Storm Shadow long-range missiles in Ukraine
The Storm Shadow cruise missile will give Ukraine new capabilities in its conflict with Russia.

I find it amazing in this era of gps guided weapons that you can pretty much stick any pgm onto any aircraft with a modified/compatible pylon. Gone are the days when the launch aircraft needed a factory-installed weapons-compatible target designating system, one that often required dangerous loitering over the target area. Su-24 and MiG-29s launching Anglo-French Storm Shadows? Amazing.UK "is supplying" Storm Shadow to Ukraine. This, IMHO, is a step-change in capabilities since Storm Shadow is a very capable cruise missile:

Can you take out the Kerch bridge with a Storm Shadow? I suppose not, as that's a big target.

From Wikipedia:
The missile has a range of approximately 560 km (300 nmi; 350 mi),[9] and delivers a conventional BROACH warhead of 450kg.
The BROACH warhead features an initial penetrating charge to clear soil or enter a bunker, then a variable delay fuze to control detonation of the main warhead. The missile weighs about 1,300 kilograms (2,900 lb). It has a maximum body diameter of 48 centimetres (19 in) and a wingspan of 3 metres (120 in). Intended targets are command, control and communications; airfields; ports and power stations; AMS/ammunition storage; surface ships and submarines in port; bridges and other high value strategic targets.
The BROACH warhead is pretty powerful. I reckon it could do some serious damage to the Kerch Bridge.
