“Luhansk Gov. Serhii Haidai reported that Ukrainian fighters repelled an assault on Sievierodonetsk but Russian troops still pushed to encircle them.”


Luhansk Gov. now rules about 2% of the Lugansk province — specifically Lisichansk.

Most of Ukes abandoned Sievierodonetsk leaving behind all the tanks and artillery, they used cars stolen from the civilians. Per today’s news from the Russian side, 70% of this town have been cleared from landmines already.

Now, Lisichansk — which is the last town in the Luhansk province under the Nazi control — will be more difficult. It is indeed surrounded so the Ukes have no “run” option, only surrender or die.

The more unhinged your response, the more evident it is that your position on any given issue is weak!

Gotta love how the media PIVOTS on a dime. Literally ALL of the Western Media said that the Mariupol Steelworks was EVACUATED (implying an orderly withdraw to friendly territory). Then a few videos came out of the people being loaded on to Russian buses, so 24 hours later ALL of the Western Media, at the same time, admitted it was a SURRENDER.

So, those of us who go off the Western Media grid for honest reporting are not at all surprised by yet another PIVOT.

All I know is we don’t know what to believe. I’m pretty sure Russia is doing than MSM has been saying.

Anyone with a brain knew that the propaganda wasn’t going to last forever ... The Severo mayor reported that the Russians stormed the city last night and today control the residential/business areas which is over half the city.

I'm actually surprised to see CTH using anything from a deep state front group like the Institute for the Study of War.

There is not a war in history you could not dig into and find immorality or unethical underpinnings in its start, middle or end.

All that matters, all that ever matters, is winning. I don’t care about neo Nazis shelling since 2014. I don’t care if there was a coup in 2014. I don’t care if Russia invaded in 2022.

None of it matters.

All that matters is
1) in 40 years all anyone will know about it is who won

2) in 40 years it will be clear Russia’s land surface are ensures they will run out of civilization’s lifeblood last. They will have oil after everyone else does not.

3) in 40 yrs the US will need that oil to power tractors that plant food and will intensely regret trashing Russia and making a long term enemy of them. It’s biting the hand that will feed you.

There would be no proxy war against Russia if Russia simply hadn't invaded.

True. Except for the last two weeks, Russia has been gaining ground around Luhansk. They took Popasna, which means Lysychansk is 3/4 surrounded. Eastern Ukraine is in a bad situation right now.
