Governor of Luhansk region said Ukrainian forces attacked a hotel in Kadiivka
Serhiy Gaidai said survivors face inadequate medical services to treat them

Ukrainian forces have attacked a hotel where members of Russia's brutal private Wagner military group were based, killing many, a local leader has claimed.
Serhiy Gaidai, the governor of the Russian-occupied Luhansk region, told Ukrainian television that forces launched a strike on a hotel in the town of Kadiivka, in the east of the country, on Saturday.
The account could not be verified but photos posted on Telegram channels appear to show a building largely reduced to rubble. Sources in Kyiv say the strike in Kadiivka resulted in 'significant losses', according to the Telegraph.
It comes as Ukrainian officials have also claimed that as many as 200 Russian troops have been killed or wounded in a missile strike in the occupied city of Melitopol.
But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said yesterday that the situation 'remains very difficult' in several frontline cities in eastern Ukraine's Donetsk and Luhansk provinces.
Mr Gaidai, who has previously reported strikes by Ukrainian forces on other targets in Luhansk region, did not give casualty figures for the incident in Kadiivka, but he said those surviving faced inadequate medical services to treat them.
'I am sure that at least 50 per cent of those who managed to survive will die before they get medical care,' he said. 'This is because even in our Luhansk region, they have stolen equipment.'

Because this winter is going to be very rough on everyone in the Ukraine, including the Russian invading armies. Winter in Europe will be cold with very high priced energy. BUT then comes spring with renewal, a new year, everything warming up and new thinking. Making this the prime time for Mr. X to get rid of Vlad Putin. Or Vlad is dead or too ill from cancer to hold onto power.
It came from my estimates of when Putin will meet his end. Based on current trends.
Good prediction
TMI!
Some think its “porn”..lol! Well whatever gets ya going...I guess...
I dunnoo....I hope your right if only to prevent you sounding like a Putard with a “prediction”...know what Im sayin?
Welome to hotel Kadiivka
Such a lovely place
You can check out anytime you want, but you can never leave
Kherson was also ‘gone forever’ until the Ukrainians took it back. Occupiers are digging trenches and defensive lines in Crimea - why is that, if it’s russian forever?
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for December 12, 2022.
- Russia continues its war of attrition - focusing on exhausting and overwhelming critical Ukrainian defenses around Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine/western Russia;
- Despite claims that Russian missile stockpiles are depleted, Russia continues carrying out regular, large-scale missile barrages against Ukrainian infrastructure;
- Latest US assistance package for Ukraine continues the trend of dwindling, inadequate support for Ukraine;
- US government procurement numbers over the course of the next 2-5 years indicates that at no time in the near future will the US be capable of producing let alone supplying Ukraine with the number of weapons and ammunition it requires;
- While Russian production data is not available, the fact that Russia’s stockpiles and military were configured for large-scale protracted and intense combat suggests its military industrial output is likewise configured for such demands;
- The Western media is now admitting that Ukraine can neither win, nor is there any moral imperative to ensure that it does...
Doesn’t bother me at all. I like throwing out that Putin’s gonna be dead prediction. Spring is always the time for renewal, new life and resurrection.
I wonder if these “body counts” are extremely over-exaggerated ala Vietnam
Actually Putin himself said he will leave office in March.
“Actually Putin himself said he will leave office in March.”
First I have heard! I thought Putin is El Presidente for life. Tsar for life, etc.
“Actually Putin himself said he will leave office in March.”
I just did a web search. I only see people speculating he is leaving office because he has not announced he is running for re-election, nothing in writing.
If Russia is anything like the American Election system, Putin could stay in his basemen, announce he is running in the very last week and still win the election by a landslide.
What if Russia election system is legal and fairer than the USA system, what Putin is defeated in an election.
I love that you don’t understand the difference between what I posted and paid propaganda!
Makes my point that Zeepers can’t apply critical thinking!
I like it!
“Putin really looked sick!”
Sick enough to die in mid-January. Hopefully. This demon needs to be sent back to hell.
