This would coincide if the attack on the convoy did indeed take place close to them. But what makes it confusing is that tweet #1 is in a completely different area (East of Kharkiv, rather than North where Tweet #2 is located).
So we aren't sure if it's 2 different convoys or the same one, but just reported in different areas. The Telegram channel in that region isn't clear exactly where it occurred, nor can it confirm all the loud explosions recently heard were from artillery hitting this convoy, of if it was related to the attack on Dergachi to the south, which it itself has been getting attacked the past few days.
Waiting to see what the official word is, as no one really knows what happened yet and a lot of 'information' going off in multiple directions.

It may be a different one, based on location as mentioned, but it will be a few days before we learn official information. I have seen multiple different convoys being attacked and destroyed in the past 24 hours on twitter, some very significant ones including reports of BTGs destroyed.
There is a LOT going on. It appears that in their haste to give Putin his win for Victory Day, the Russians redeployed all the Kyiv, Chernihiv and Sumy troops without so much as a proper preparation plan and sending them down towards Donetsk from all roads they can use. All in a line of course...since it has been working so well.
Ukrainians know exactly where they are all coming from. And with the help of drone reconnaissance know exactly where to concentrate artillery.
