“Fierce fighting continues along the front lines,” said Oleh Synehubov, governor of the northeastern region of Kharkiv, adding that Ukrainian forces were holding out.

That might be little over-sized.

Putting aside the political discussion about supporting Ukraine, the United States is telling them to give up that particular front at bakhmut and the Ukrainians don’t want to do it.

Could be a big mistake on their part.

Ukrainian Army is going to be in full retreat soon. This is their second to last defensive line.

Apparently, giving Ukraine $100,000,000,000 in 12 months isn’t enough for them to pay for tanks themselves.

If they hadn’t sold 1/2 of everything they’ve already been given they’d have enough.

The pedophiles, perverts and criminal democrats are making a fortune off this.

The tanks are not going to do them any good except getting turned into smoking metal. No training, no logistics, little ISR....before they get to the FLOT, they will get smoked.

You can’t replace 150,000 experienced NCOs and troops overnight.

Russia is losing by winning. Or are they winning by losing? Amazing what the west is doing, especially us, to make Ukrainians suffer more and more each day.

It’s Friday, and any day of the week that ends in “day” requires begging for more weapons.
