into humiliating retreat: and liberate dozens of occupied towns - as NATO 'warns Kremlin will test NUKES on the border to save face'

Russia's frontline has collapsed in the south of Ukraine with dozens of towns liberated in a matter of hours Kyiv said its troops are 'confidently advancing to the sea' as city of Davydiv Brid is now under their control

Pro-Russian military bloggers said their forces had retreated around 10 miles down the Dnipro River It comes just days after Putin declared the Kherson region - along with three others - to be part of Russia

Russia's frontline has collapsed in the south of Ukraine with dozens of towns liberated in a matter of hours, according to sources on both sides of the conflict.

Kyiv said its troops are 'confidently advancing to the sea' as videos showed the city of Davydiv Brid under their control along with a clutch of smaller settlements in the surrounding countryside.

Meanwhile pro-Russian military bloggers said their forces had retreated around 10 miles down the Dnipro River as the entire northern end of their territory west of the river fell into Ukrainian hands.

It comes just days after President Vladimir Putin declared the Kherson region - along with three others - to be part of Russia, vowing they would belong to Moscow 'forever'.

Meantime, NATO has warned it is anticipating Russia may detonate a nuke on Ukraine's borders in a demonstration of Putin's resolve.

And news of Russian defeats in the region are significant, because Putin has based the majority of his best soldiers there - up to 30,000 of them, by some accounts.

Should Moscow's armies retreat from Kherson, then questions will be raised over whether they can continue to hold any of the territory they have taken in Ukraine.

“ ‘We need anti-aircraft and anti-missile defence systems to secure our civilians and critical infrastructure from the terrorist attacks on the Russian forces.’”

“why hasn’t Putin attacked further into Ukraine?”

Well, he tried, and he failed.

Putin will be deposed or dead by March.

When you're in a hole, quit digging. Putin seems not to have heard this adage. It's been said that if he uses a nuke, we will respond and then he's committed suicide by cop.

It would be so understandable if he were to retire for reasons of health...before someone close to him gives him one.

Be honest, if Russia couldn’t pull off a win in the warm months, how the hell is Russia going to pull off a win in winter when logistics are infinitely more difficult?

Putin screwed the pooch.

Yes indeed.....

but I really do question this Ukrainian push if or not Russia’s simply retreating it’s forces to this side of the river with no plans to go back across the river.

But there was admittedly a concern over where those borders would be.

Funny, a lot of Putinistas here have been saying it.

If in March we had really armed Ukraine this war would be over by now.

The purpose is not for the war to end, but to be endless. It’s the weapons makers’ gravy train.

.......”Make no mistake about this, we are in a war against Russia”.......

This administration got into office by great deceptions and trickery....no doubt they are trying hard to say we're not at war with Russia with those same tactics.... but we surely and without questions are. Just look at all the vast shipments of military, both men and equipment that Biden sent to Poland and the Baltic states under the guise of protecting those countries, but were no different than Putin amassing his army on his Border.

Why is it that all the pro-vax and pro-Fauci agencies are pro-Ukraine?
There is a pattern developing here.
And it is continuing to be funded with USA tax dollars.
I don’t know how it will turn out.
But if we look at Afghanistan withdrawal disaster from August 2021, you have to wonder “What is the point?”
And “Who benefits?”
