The Russian occupiers continue to accumulate reserves on their territory for waging war against Ukraine. However, to date, the main tasks of defeating the AFU groups, reaching the administrative borders of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions and establishing control over part of Ukraine by the enemy have not been completed, and in some areas the Ukrainian defenders have launched a counteroffensive.
This was announced on Facebook by the General Staff of the armed forces of Ukraine. It is noted that detachments of mercenaries are being formed in the Russian Federation, which are ready to carry out criminal orders of Russian commanders for a fee. The armed forces of Ukraine reported that mercenary recruitment centers have been opened in Syria, where more than a thousand people have been recruited in recent days, and about 400 people have already arrived in the Russian Federation. They are located near the Ukrainian border in the Rostov (Russia) and Gomel (Belarus) regions.
The General Staff also provided up to date information on the situation in all directions in Ukraine:
- in the Mykolaiv and Kryvyi Rih directions, the occupation forces were stopped.
Without significant success, the enemy continues to conduct systematic combat operations by bombing aircraft in order to destroy the military and civilian infrastructure of Ukraine, and commits war crimes;
-in the Volyn direction, the enemy continues measures to strengthen the protection of the Ukrainian-Belarusian border by units of the Armed Forces of the Republic of Belarus, with the help of UAVs, it conducts aerial reconnaissance of certain areas along the state border.;
- in the Polessky direction, the invaders do not give up trying to overcome the barrier line along the Irpen River and gain a foothold in the area of the settlements of Bucha and Irpen. They are trying to organize defensive operations. Saboteurs are being trained for actions under the guise of military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine;
- the enemy did not conduct any active offensive operations in the Seversky direction. Regrouping to resume an offensive attempt in the direction of Kiev;
-in the Slobozhansky direction, the enemy focused its main efforts on restoring the losses received as a result of a decisive rebuff near the city of Kharkiv and a counterattack by the Ukrainian armed forces near the city of Izyum;
-in the Donetsk and Tavrichesky directions, the enemy continues to conduct active military operations. Due to its numerical superiority in certain areas it has partial success;
-in the South bug direction, the enemy is trying to continue the offensive in the direction of Kryvyi Rih. It has gained a foothold on The reached borders, regrouping troops and replenishing reserves. Does not abandon attempts to surround Nikolaev.
The General Staff assured that the armed forces of Ukraine confidently deter the enemy, cause him significant losses in manpower and military equipment, as well as demoralize his personnel both in the areas of combat operations and in the areas of reserve formation.
As reported by OBOZREVATEL, during the 18 days of the war against Ukraine, Russia lost more than 12 thousand personnel. The Ukrainian defenders also destroyed 389 tanks and 90 helicopters of the invaders. But the numbers may be even higher, as counting is complicated by the high intensity of fighting.
I would say you are protesting a bit too much there, comrade
You can’t get through to these Putinistas. There’s minute by minute or hour by hour updates on Twitter & Instagram from various reputable sources (not mass media) and all these Putinistas will do is label everything “nazi propaganda” or some such bull crap.
Wish Ukraine well.
Points well taken.
That is a typical commie tactic — like the time they denied they shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007. Everything they do is “lie and deny.”
I’m hearing its about over. Putin’s forces have achieved most of their objectives. They are now engaged in urban combat ferreting out pockets of the Khazarian mafia in the cities and killing them.
The idea that the column was "blocked" or "out of fuel" seemed curious, since what I observed was an orderly column of various types, forward-positioned for deployment when/as needed. These included combat, combat support and combat service support elements that military planners would stage for ready use. Such columns, combined with the absence of city-flattening offensive tactics that the Soviets employed against Germany in WW2, indicate to me that Russia is holding back and does not intend to crush Ukraine. Time will tell what it actually happening, but I sense that the Kiev regime is on the ropes.
You know my middle boy nixed Lexington when they yanked stonewall statue he was all in and scheduled
U ever examine board of trustees for vmi
No wonder
A woke fest
That same ilk along with neocon mostly but not all nevertrumpers are deciding who gets to hear what on this war and exploiting it for domestic gain and their usual globalism
I’m good with opposing that
It is called the Board of Visitors at VMI. Governor Youngkin is working on it along with the VA Atty General.
I am a Trumper and I support Ukraine and as a cold warrior I detest the Russian govt. By the way, Trump hates Putin too and supports Ukraine. Deal with it. We don’t distrust the Russians because we are armed. We are armed because we distrust the Bear.
Ain’t going so good for the Russians. https://defence-blog.com/russian-special-operations-forces-suffered-heavy-losses-in-southern-ukraine/
In poker calling yourself a Trumper is what we’d call a tell
Like someone says “sure Im a conservative I am a Republican “
Btw
link ping
I actually worked for 45 on the campaign staff and in DC, hoss. Not a tell. Just fact. Can you claim that?
Is that you Scarmucci?
Kiss my @$$. Where did your son end up going to school?
