— an area that includes Lyman. Taking the city paves the way for Ukrainian troops to potentially push further into land that Moscow now illegally claims as its own.. Facing Ukrainian gains on the battlefield — which he frames as a U.S.-orchestrated effort to destroy Russia — Putin this week heightened threats of nuclear force and used his most aggressive, anti-Western rhetoric to date.
Ukrainian forces have retaken vast swaths of territory in a counteroffensive that started in September. They have pushed Russian forces out of the Kharkiv area and moved east across the Oskil River.The leader of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, blamed the retreat, without evidence, on one general being “covered up for by higher-up leaders in the General Staff.” He called for “more drastic measures.”
Russian bombardments have intensified in recent days as Moscow moved swiftly with its latest annexation and ordered a mass mobilization at home to bolster its forces. The Russian call-up has proven unpopular at home, prompting tens of thousands of Russian men to flee the country. The governor of the Kharkiv region, Oleh Syniehubov, said 24 civilians were killed in an attack this week on a convoy trying to flee the Kupiansk district. He called it “сruelty that can’t be justified.” He said 13 children and a pregnant woman were among the dead.The Security Service of Ukraine, the secret police force known by the acronym SBU, posted photographs of the attacked convoy. At least one truck appeared to have been blown up, with burned corpses in what remained of its truck bed.
In other developments, in an apparent attempt to secure Moscow’s hold on the newly annexed territory, Russian forces seized the director-general of theEnergoatom said Russian troops stopped Murashov’s car, blindfolded him and took him to an undisclosed location. 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 itsIn other fighting reported Saturday, four people were killed by Russian shelling Friday in the Donetsk region, governor Pavlo Kyrylenko said. The Russian army struck the southern Ukrainian city of Mykolaiv twice overnight, once with drones and the second time with missiles, according to regional Gov. Vitaliy Kim.
Good!
You can't just pull out....
keep them running scared to the next lot...but make sure they dont have time to kill the inhabitants...
It was more running than pulling.
My take on how Russia has already lost and the Russian military collapses/revolution to come as Ukraine writes the textbook on 21st-century warfare
🌹 The concern now is if this is a precursor to something much worse to come. If you are going to do a tactical nuclear strike, you do not want your troops in harm's way. 🤔
Pulled out? I guess you could consider dying as being pulled out. Would you say the Germans pulled out of Stalingrad?
Russians are smart! Saving soldiers instead of fighting to the last breath as Ukrainians do loosing thousands of fathers and sons just to get USA’s tap on the back
Useless Russian xunts
