DONETSK OBLAST, Ukraine — The ambulances hurtled into the parking lot one after the other, each carrying wounded troops directly from the nearby front line. One young man stared straight ahead, his face swollen, his neck and back dripping with blood. Others lay silently under foil blankets.
Some stumbled out the back doors and collapsed into wheelchairs as staff rushed to push them inside. Nearby, bloodied cots sat propped against a tent and other wounded soldiers lingered about, their faces grim, their heads, arms or legs bandaged as the sound of outgoing artillery boomed across the sky.
About 10 wounded soldiers arrived at this hospital in eastern Ukraine in less than an hour Sunday morning — the latest military casualties as Ukraine forces, outgunned by Russia in the country’s east, continue to lose territory at a critical moment in the war.
Soldiers also helped one civilian woman with leg wounds out of a military ambulance.
The Washington Post is withholding the name and precise location of the hospital out of concerns from staff that it could be targeted by Russian forces.
“Seventy people from my battalion were injured in the last week,” said a soldier and ambulance driver just outside the hospital gates who identified himself only as Vlad, 29. “I lost too many friends; it’s hard for me. I don’t know how many. ... It’s getting worse every day.”
The night before, he said, the shelling was so loud he hardly got any sleep. “It’s all artillery bombing down,” he said. “All the wounded are coming from shrapnel. Most guys in the trenches haven’t even seen the enemy face-to-face.”

By all accounts, Russia is jamming and spoofing (bending) GPS.
(Russia has it’s own sat-based system independent of GPS called Glonass)

Contrary to Western propaganda, Ukraine is actively exporting wheat through Romanian ports, which remain open, as well as by land and by river
Those weapons they are receiving are not “ free” and there is a debt accumulating that will have to be repaid.
Exactly.
I’m more worried about what the Democrats and their Assistant Democrats helpers in the GOP are going to do to us.
“So there’s a new communist mantra - those who support Ukraine against aggression are murdering the Ukrainians.
Spoken like true marxist dupes.”
You are the only person saying that.
Just like you implied that anyone who doesn’t support Ukraine is anti American.
That’s the stupid sh!t Alexander Vindeman would say.
“By all accounts, Russia is jamming and spoofing (bending) GPS.”
For sure. Looks like our whiz-kids in The Pentagon hadn’t considered that possibility. And why should they - GPS works for them every day, when they need to get home after work.
All true. We are arming tomorrow’s mercenary warlords all over the region for the next 20 years.
“That’s the stupid sh!t Alexander Vindeman would say.”
Hmmm.
Orc propaganda get published all over without people knowing exactly where the story came from. S&S is not a reliable news source
Going all the way back to Desert Storm, we “spoofed” our own GPS so that Iraqi spotters on the ground in Saudi Arabia reported wrong lat-lon corrections back to Baghdad for the next SCUD launch. They kept “correcting” and the SCUDs kept missing. This is the essence of “spoofing.”
That was 30 years ago.
I doubt I could find the article back, but I'm pretty sure I read that they've actually exported more tons of grain so far this year than they did in the same period last year.
Cool, didn’t know that!
“Orc propaganda”
I get the sense anything not developed in the State Dept/CIA information labs is “Orc propaganda”.
Yeah, you, Hillary Clinton and George Soros are all on the same side agreeing about the Evil Russian Orcs!
It’s not the evil Russians who can’t answer the question, “What is a woman?”
It’s not the evil Russians who are brainwashing our kids into sex-change operations at age 13.
It’s not the evil Russians who cut off our pipelines and oil drilling.
It’s not the evil Russians who kept baby formula off our shelves.
Etc. But keep parroting the Soros and Hillary talking points about Evil Russia.
Yes, see 74.
FWIW, my prediction concerning China remains the same. The moment the Blinken Administration attempts to use Taiwan as a launching pad for US weapons, aimed at them, China will “invade”, exactly like happened to Ukraine by Russia.
At that point Americans will have to very rapidly learn to manufacture things they need, or very rapidly learn to go without. About the only things the US manufactures in abundance are fiat, threats, excuses, and imbeciles.
This is why the LGBTQ+ globo-homo commies running America in 2022 hate Russia. File it under “Things You Will Never See In The MSM.”
The New Russian Military Cathedral

Imagine the U.S. Army creating a new Military Cathedral. Never happen. But if it did, it would be dedicated to woke LGBTQ+, like Milly, “I want to understand white rage.”
Funny things is, these pseudo neocon acolytes won’t even recognize their reasoning error once Russia settles the war on their terms.
They’ll still live the fantasy of pax neoconnia.
It’s weird as hell. They actually believe/believed Ukraine would defeat the Russian army. And if not, that Ukraine had a moral case to drive the world into WWIII.
Not that I disagree, but curious why you say that.
HAHAHAHA you are funny!
