[Alas Babylon!]

Soledar has been captured and is now occupied by Russians and the whole world knows it, other than for people who get their info from 'Mom' here.....

Has it? That's not what Putin's press secretary said:

According to Russian official TV, Russian forces had achieved “positive dynamics in advancing” in Soledar, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Wednesday, stopping short of declaring its capture. “Let’s not rush, and wait for official statements,” he said.

Only question I have to you: is Peskov lying?
