From my reading of Intel Slava, it is pretty factual, what with photos, videos (and Dh has listened to some as he understands Russian and Ukrainian, they are very similar), and they say what the text says they say.
The site does seem to minimize or not report on Russian losses, so there’s that. It is clear that Ukraine is definitely not doing well at all. Too bad Zelensky is such an evil man that he does not make a deal with Russia. Actually a few weeks ago he was willing to and made some noises about agreeing that RU could keep control of the areas they held, but since then appears to have backtracked. His string pullers said “No”. Many Ukrainian soldiers are dying unnecessarily. Many are abandoned by the commanding officers. It’s tragic.
I think Zelensky does know that once the dust settles, he is going to be in hot water and is just trying to put off the inevitable, at great cost to the Ukrainian people; which is only adding to the weight of his crimes.
I’m pleased to hear that your husband can verify that the subtitles match the citizens’ words on camera. That’s where some of my skepticism was coming from since I don’t understand Russian.
Zelensky may have personally wanted to negotiate a truce but I think the West is still doing the elites’ bidding when it comes to Ukraine and what they want is a full-out war, possibly with nukes to hasten our demise. So after pressure from the West and the promise of more funding, human resources and equipment, Zelensky backed off. He was reported as saying that Russia said they were going to resort to nukes soon. We know how they all operate - accuse the other side of what you’re doing/planning to do.
In the interim, Russia is accumulating evidence of war crimes by Zelensky’s military (Azov Nazis). They’re killing citizens who try to leave the cities under seige and they shoot wanna-be-surrendering soldiers in the back of the head if they’re even caught reading the flyers dropped inviting surrender. It will take the return of PDJT to make sure that any trial is handled fairly by the International Criminal Court. I suspect that the Ukrainian people know the truth about their “leader” now. The only thing that can save Zelensky now is to win, which seems improbable.
