Ukraine's military has confirmed that the eastern city of Lysychansk has fallen to Russian forces.
"After heavy fighting for Lysychansk, the defence forces of Ukraine were forced to withdraw from their occupied positions and lines," the army general staff said.
Earlier Russia's Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said his forces had captured Lysychansk and taken full control of Luhansk region.
Its general staff said that "in order to preserve the lives of Ukrainian defenders, a decision was made to withdraw".

“Ukraine confirms Russia captured eastern city Lysychansk”
I prefer to use the term ‘Liberated’.
(just to tease the Neocon supporters)
Looking for my OOF picture
I don’t like Zelensky and I don’t like Putin.
Ukraine sending men to the front with two weeks training is awful.
Zelensky is just feeding them into a meat grinder.
The ones who survive will never forget, or forgive, this.
Gee for a country getting ZILLIONS of dollars of OUR money with the claim that they are winning the war against Russia, they sure are doing a lot of losing lately arent they
The Lugansk People’s Republic has been LIBERATED!
Just advancing towards the rear. Anyday now, President-for-Life Zelenskyy will declare victory, for eternal benefit of glorious nation of Ukraine!
(\sarc ;>)
Me, too! lol
Nobody accounts for the money when there is a loss. Expect the globalist cabal to be enriched over this.
zelensky whoopin dat aZZZ
The war of attrition continues.
As does the US tax dollars going to the blackhole called Ukraine.
I think the Ukie troops are simply walking away....just as they did in Crimea....but for a different reason.
Liberated from neocons and globalists who use Ukr as their honey hole? Ppl who support Ukr also support Biden and the Russia hoax.
Is there *anything* redeeming about the Ukr leader?
Sorry but most US taxpayer money has not even left the country.
DC always get it’s cut first.....
Is there *anything* redeeming about the Ukr leader?
Yes.
He is only a cocaine user. Could have been heroin, like his buddy Hunter.
My friends there don’t feel “liberated”.
One thing is guaranteed - a LOT of those dollars will get cycled back to the US, to support D@mocrat election fraud in 2022, 2024, and beyond. It's a permanent slush fund to support the "liberal world order"...
Zelensky’s statements on the liberation of Lysychansk, from his telegram channel, translation his.
In many cities in the rear there is a feeling of relaxation now, but the war is not over, its cruelty is increasing in some places, and it cannot be forgotten. Therefore, help the army, help volunteers, help everyone who was left alone at this time. Spread the truth about the war and about the crimes of the occupiers. No matter how difficult it is for us today, we must remember that there will be tomorrow. And tomorrow should bring maximum benefit to Ukraine – everyone should do absolutely everything possible for this.
The war hugely affected Ukrainian sports. More than a hundred thousand Ukrainian athletes do not have the opportunity of training. Hundreds of sports facilities were destroyed.
I am grateful to President of the International Olympic Committee Thomas Bach for the decision to allocate a new support package for Ukrainian Olympians. We appreciate the initiative to hold a special donor conference under the auspices of the IOC for the purpose of restoring the sports infrastructure in Ukraine.
The Russian economy found itself in the biggest crisis in the last 50 years. The world severs ties with Russia. The words «collapse», «deficit» and «poverty» will be the description of Russian life as long as this state wants to be a terrorist state. They lost more than 35 thousand soldiers, and this is a conservative estimate. What is all this for? For the sake of insane propagandists to be able to show a Russian or Soviet flag on the ruins somewhere in their broadcasts... There is simply no other answer.
