“Russia-backed separatists say 900 Ukrainian troops surrendered at steel plant”
Ukrainian troops and others emerge from the Steel Plant without arms, carry white flags, and walk over to ENEMY lines. And the media calls this a ‘withdraw’ or ‘evacuation’, implying that it’s simply a redeployment of troops.
So now it’s a SURRENDER??? Looks like the media only got away with this lie for 24 hours. The question for those still on the fence is what else is the media LYING about in this war? Answer: Whatever advances the $40B.
At least they’re downgrading AZOV to militants instead of calling them heroes like they were two days ago. I imagine once the Russians show off their SS tattoos and have a looksie at their cell phone images, we can get back to calling them Nazi scum.
they had 265 the first day, then 694 more the second day.
959 total so far. Maybe more are still yet to come out
“At least they’re downgrading AZOV to militants instead of calling them heroes “
So “they’re” (DPR) were previously calling them heroes?
