Russian forces desperate to capture the strategically important city of Bakhmut in the contested Donbas region are trying to advance over the corpses of their own fallen soldiers, Ukraine’s top general said.
Gen. Valerii Zaluzhnyi, commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian armed forces, wrote on his Facebook page Tuesday that there was intense fighting along the border of Svatove-Kreminna in the Luhansk region, as well as in the direction of Lysychansk.
“The most challenging situation remains in the Soledar-Bakhmut-Mayorsk area,” the four-star general wrote. “There, the enemy is virtually attempting to advance over their corpses, but the Defenсe Forces units constrain the enemy’s offensive at the cost of supreme efforts.”
Zaluzhnyi said he told US Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, about the difficult situation on the front line in their first phone call of the year.
Zaluzhnyi thanked Milley for his help in providing anti-aircraft missile systems to protect civilians. The two generals also discussed “changes in the operational and strategic situation, primarily on the land and in the air space of Ukraine.”

These Ukraine articles are a waste of time. All we get are juvenile comments by Putin cheerleaders.
Military advancing over their own dead used to be called a noble effort not something for an enemy to disparage on Facebook. That is what every Cavalry or Infantry charge did through history. The Ukrainian General sounds like a fool.
I am glad you are Joe Biden's lackey. It strengthens my resolve and makes clear that I am on the Right side of history!
I wish freerepublic would make some code updates and make it possible to ignore people. I really don’t want to read another nonsense about “secret-ukrainian-deep-state-homo-headquarters holding agent Q in a biolab to make andrechsodfsd”
It isn’t called heroism when the brutal army has execution units driving the attackers forward.
“Ukraine 1991-2023 RIP. The quicker the better.”
I’m sure cheerleaders of King George said the same thing about George Washington’s army.
Just a bunch of ungrateful colonists who should die now, the sooner the better.
Ignoring wouldn’t be good, but putting the poster’s name at the top of his post would make it easy to skip the ones who are just spamming and/or repetitively trolling on subjects.
I know who you mean. Ekaterina.
A long post from a known lunatic, which I would skip if possible.
Putting a poster’s name on top should be a straightforward and easy thing to do. Different league from the ‘ignore’ function.
I don’t know who Ekaterina is.

Oh, good example.
We'll see how they do in battle.
This is what they look like:
LOL Hello? The Twentieth Century is calling to get their flippant comment back. You'll believe anything your propagandists feed you don't you?
Today’s pro Ukrainian propaganda, lol
I do believe the many reports that Russian military forces are still using that method, and being publically proud of the sledgehammer murder/execution reinforce that the old methods are still routine in Russia.
We now have the French donating their wheeled tanks. We'll find out if these things actually work in a real battle:
These might work ...
You posted that to the wrong person. My post was about the Russian military and executions and execution units.
Your post about the down-low homosexuality of the Russians is unrelated to my posts, yours would more be about the preference for male sex among the Russian military, which seems to be so tolerated in Russia.
Ukraine has done nothing by itself. All they try to go is lure in more countries. They can eat crap. I don’t want their stupid war. They made their bed, let them lay in it.
