More silly propaganda, The Russians only purpose in Kiev has been to keep Ukraine military occupied while wiped the neo-Nazi bastards in Mariupol and set up the final assault on 60,000 to 80,000 Ukrainian troops encircled in the east. This likely will be the week where those troops are finished off.
Yeah, right...
They never wanted to take Kiev and install a puppet government. /S
We will know more in a week. I remember numerous posts about how the Russians north of Kiev were haveing an "operational pause" and could take Kiev anytime they wanted to.. and had destroyed the Ukrainian army, they were just "mopping up".
We will see in a week.
sure
That's a genius strategic plan. In order to attack a couple of thousand territorial defense fighters in Mariupol Putin sends a big chunk of his army to die fighting around Kyiv. More Russians have died near Kyiv than the total number of Azov members.
That actually seems like Putin did the killing for Azov, and threw away hundreds of tanks, IFVs, and trucks in the process.
