Or maybe Russia just levels Kyiv? Seems like Z has pissed Vlad off with his little bridge stunt.

Oleksii tells me: "I feel safe here because we are on our land and even the ground will bring me help." That's despite the nearby sound of small-arms fire, exploding artillery shells landing within sight and the roar of Russian jets overhead.
The ground he and the small team of Ukrainian troops now occupy is on the border of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions. The same ground that Russian President Vladimir Putin recently declared as being Russian forever.
Over the past week the men of Ukraine's D1 National Guard Unit have advanced more than 20km (12 miles) east from the recently liberated city of Lyman in Donetsk region. They now occupy a former Russian position in a wood - still within range of the retreating Russian army. Part of "forever Russia" is already back in Ukrainian hands. Russia's now the defending army.
The reversal in fortunes has been a shot in the arm for Ukrainian troops. There's a palpable sense of confidence among them, even though they're still within range. Ilya, another member of the unit, tells me: "We can retake territory, but the Russians cannot." I ask why? "Because they are weak now, they're scared of us, they're running from us."

Ilya picks up a discarded Russian helmet and compares it with his own. "Army of the future," jokes Ilya as he taps the Russian helmet. "A very bad future," adds a comrade, laughing.
It's not that dissimilar to what Russian troops would have worn in World War Two. They hold up a Russian winter glove and read the label. It says it was made in 2005. "New for Russians," they joke.... .....

Yes, of course, I know exactly how they ‘liberating’ towns too...
Once the Ukraine has re-conquered the city of Donetsk, the rest of the province should fall quickly.
It’s very nice that you know something. When you wish to share it with the rest of the class, just do so.

Just a business as usual, nothing to see here...
‘Liberating’ must be so exhilarating... /s

Truth be damned.
They’re here to set the record straight that Russia is absolutely winning!
Everything else contrary to that is fake news!
“Truth be damned.
They’re here to set the record straight that Ukraine is absolutely winning and been absolutely winning since March!

Fixed/Corrected.
I would love to hear Moscow is being rocketed.
What come round go round. Bitches...
“Yes, of course, I know exactly how they ‘liberating’ towns too...”
By making the invading Russian troops run away, of course.
“‘Liberating’ must be so exhilarating... /s”
It’s surely more exhilarating than being invaded.
Thanks for posting a picture of how mother Russia’s Putin liberates people from the horrible nazis of Ukraine.
Especially when you have already openly acknowledged that you back the killing of them ....
All very believable and worth investigating further. What can I say? War is hell, especially if you bet on the loser and you’re still there. The Russians in their march to Berlin were visiting holy hell on anyone suspected of collaborating with the erstwhile occupiers. The French were shaving the heads of collaborators, even prostitutes who serviced Germans, and they were beaten in the streets. The retribution-fest lasted for years.
The end of this article mentions the ambivalence of the residents to their “liberation,” for fear the Russians will be back on top eventually. It could be there is something more in back of it that they didn’t want to say out loud.
In general, you have very vindictive people in Europe, especially in the East. Since wars are less frequent, we don’t often see it now. But it’s lurking beneath the surface. Europeans don’t have a monopoly on vindictiveness, but they definitely are into it under the right conditions.
Invaders do a lot of killing.
Raping, torturing and tossing them into mass graves as well.
And you consider them the good guys fighting “Nazis”.
Shame on you 2. You cannot use the ‘winning’ without the Charlie Sheen GIF/meme

Pack up your gear and go then, neo-con. The real war is HERE against the Marxists.
