Russia withdraws troops after Ukraine encircles key city

After being encircled by Ukrainian forces, Russia pulled troops out Saturday from an eastern Ukrainian city that it had been using as a front-line hub. It was the latest victory for the Ukrainian counteroffensive that has humiliated and angered the Kremlin.

Ukrainian forces have retaken vast swathes of territory in a counteroffensive that started in September which saw them push Russian forces out of the Kharkiv area and move east across the Oskil River toward Lyman and other strategic points. Ukrainian authorities on Saturday accused Russian forces of targeting two humanitarian convoys in recent days, killing dozens of civilians.

Russia's Defense Ministry said its rockets destroyed Ukrainian military targets in the area, but has not commented on accusations that it targeted fleeing civilians. Russian troops have retreated from much of the Kharkiv region amid the successful Ukrainian counteroffensive but have continued to shell the area.

The power plant repeatedly has been caught in the crossfire of the war. Ukrainian technicians continued running it after Russian troops seized the power station, and its last reactor was shut down in September as a precautionary measure amid ongoing shelling nearby.

Biden vows Russia won't 'get away with' Ukraine annexationThe United States and its allies hit back at Russia's annexation of four Ukrainian regions on Friday, slapping sanctions on more than 1,000 people and companies including arms supply networks, as Moscow and the West escalated an already heated conflict fraught with potential nuclear implications. Imagine if the USA funded their own country with all those billions? Every single problem would be solved. Crime, immigration, Healthcare, infrastructure, education, inequity, etc.... All that money (and future monies) would solve all their problems.....yet Ukraine? Lol It is good to see such strong and powerful words from the worlds most powerful democratic leader. It would be nice if he could round up the Russians that are living in the US and put them in some sort of re-education camp. There were fewer wars with Trump.

Russia vetoes UN resolution calling its referendums in Ukraine illegalRussia vetoed a UN resolution Friday that would have condemned its referendums in four Ukrainian regions as illegal, declared them invalid and urged all countries not to recognize any annexation of the territory claimed by Moscow. Is it really surprising enough to be news, did anyone not expect this. The UN is the longest running joke in the history of politics. Absurd they are ‘allowed’ to veto anything under the circumstances. This is such blatant abuse of process
