“Russia’s military presence on Ukraine’s eastern border continues to build, while fighting in the Donbas is intensifying as Russian forces seek to break through Ukrainian Defenses,” the U.K. Defense Ministry wrote in an intelligence update on Twitter.

The British military intelligence said Russian air activity in northern Ukraine will likely remain at low levels since Moscow shifted its focus away from taking control of Kyiv.

As long as the Zelenski bank account keeps rising, skanky little Z and egghead Biden will keep spending our taxpayer dollars until the last Ukrainian is dead. Land for peace is an OK deal. It’s not likely that the ukes will ever retake any of it anyways.

This has been going on since 2014...It was a civil war...

And the Donbass area and Crimea were NOT allowed to vote when Zelensky was running.

Zelensky is by birth, a Russian Jew. He spoke only Russian until he was out of his teens. English was his second language...not Ukrainian.
