How is it that Ivan has a “line of defense?” He’s the one who stated the fight. Maybe it should be more like “line of getting his axx kicked?”

“If this is the case, Z can send back the 45 billion we just gave him.”

Any aid money for Ukraine is held by New York banks and then paid out for supplies as they’re purchased or approved for export. The Democrats are also skimming the funds for The Big Guy.

In any case, Ukraine is not getting the kind of direct financial aid like Obama gave to Iran.

You know we didn’t just give him 45 billion.
We’ve only sent 20 billion, mostly in weapons. And that’s from the first $40b authorization. We haven’t touched the new $45 billion authorization.

I’m sure if the war ends, we’ll reconsider sending the rest.
But in the meantime, Russia knows that there’s another $65 billion in weapons headed to Ukraine over the next year.

There was a time when the NY Post was better than this.

Ukrainian forces are on the brink of recapturing the strategically important city of Kreminna in the east, according to a local official.==

It is a total BS. Ukie try to attack but Russian artillery minces them.

Clarification : The armed forces of Ukraine have not captured Kremmenna or Svatovo. However, according to Russian military officers, the Ukrainians tried to capture the towns but lost around 1,000 men in the battle. As per Russian reports, all Ukrainian attacks have been repulsed. The reports of the “surrender” of the cities are fake, however, according to Russian channels, the AFU command has already reported to Zelensky about the “capture,” but it’s fake, and they have not captured any significant territory. Now, for a political victory, they attempted to capture the towns but suffered significant losses, and they may try another offensive in this area.

The previous post from “ military chronicle “:

The AFU rushed to report to Zelensky on the capture of Kremenna. This cost Kiev 1,000 soldiers and officers.

In late December, Ukrainian Telegram channels spread information that the Russian Armed Forces were retreating from Svatov, while Kreminna (60 km from Slovyansk) was practically cut off and it was a matter of time to block it.

The commander of the Russian Legion detachment, Sergei Fomchenkov (call sign Fomich), told Military Chronicle that President Vladimir Zelensky, according to his radio intercepts, had already been informed of the capture of Kreminna. This, according to Fomich, was due to the fact that the AFU had accumulated excessive forces in the area of the Kreminna-Svatovo line and no longer had any doubts about its success.
Thus, the AFU rushed to report the capture of the town and therefore sent new reserves there in the hope of capturing the settlement and “implementing the report.”
All attacks by units of the 14th and 92nd mechanised brigades of the AFU, supported by the 112th Territorial Defense Brigade, were repulsed.

The 80th and 95th Airborne Assault Brigades suffered heavy losses during the “probe” between Kremenna and Svatove. The 25th Separate Airborne Assault Brigade of the AFU and units of the 66th Mechanized Brigade also recorded a large number of casualties during the Kremenna rush.

Active movement by the AFU since the autumn has been hampered by bad weather, gunfire positions, and constant reconnaissance drone activity. Convoys with Ukrainian equipment are detected at a distance of 10-12 km, after which they are fired upon.

According to the Military Chronicle, the number of dead and seriously wounded soldiers in the AFU brigades in the Svatove-Kreminna area after reports of the shift of the front line and the capture of Kreminna came close to 1,000.

According to another Military Chronicle source in the Russian Legion detachment, the AFU has faced a shortage of heavy equipment in this area, and almost all combat sorties are carried out using lightly armoured MaxxPro, Cougar, and Sisu Pasi vehicles. The vehicles receive critical artillery damage and are destroyed along with the paratroopers.

Pretty much DISCREDITS this story, really no different than the US media calling Trump’s complaints about the election to be ‘lies’...tells us the journalist’s agenda, in both cases.

Impossible! The FR Putin BoyZ keep assuring me that the Nazi Ukes are on their last legs, out of men and equipment, are freezing in the cold and are in fact already dead.

Glorious Russia and the manly man Putin will be rescuing the Ukrainians, who are actually Russians….last month.

https://liveuamap.com/ and https://deepstatemap.live.

Ukraine has previously recaptured Bilohorivka about 10 to 15 km away from Lysychanks and Sievierodonetsk. If they take Kreminna to the Northwest, it opens the way to take all the roads and towns to the north of Lysychanks and Sievierodonetsk. If those two cities are recaptured, Russia's control over the Luhansk Oblast and Northeast Ukraine is finished. Supporting Russian forces south in Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kherson will become extremely difficult without safe land corridors from Russian territory.

Instead, Russia throws men away in Bakhmut.

Kreminna is one point.

Niw what is needed is for Putin to withdraw from Ukraine completely.
