according to two battalion commanders in Ukraine’s Third Assault Brigade who help plan and execute the operation and spoke by telephone.

It's the Washington Post getting their story from Ukrainians.. it must be true...

Neocon propaganda! Russia took Bachmut a year ago the Ukrainian army was obliterated for the fourth time, Zelensky is in a gay bath house on Martha’s Vineyard, and none of our weapons ever reached the front they were all sold as auto parts on the black market.

/s Sorry I cannot resist after all the filthy downright unAmerican abuse that has been unleashed here by liars and fools for the past year.

I don’t predict the outcome (unlike every Pro Russian shill)
but I can only pray the Russian forces and their vile mercenary prisoners are slaughtered on a mass scale.

I’ve somewhat resisted commenting as this subject seem to be a pissing contest.
You guys do know that Kiev was once capitol of Russia? Obviously not.
Do you know what Stalin did to the Ukraine, Known as the Holodomor? Obviously not.
This is a civil war, between two equally homogeneous peoples.
Morally and culturally. Corrupt and un-trustworthy.
We are taking advantage of this war to grind down the Russian war machine. Pure and simple.
Trump is right we can shut this down in 24 hrs.
At this point we should. Europe is the winner.
Russia and Ukraine is back to its historical norm as it was
hundreds of years ago. Slavic nation with competing factions.

Ukraine is FINISHED and Blackrock is taking over | Redacted with Clayton Morris

It's happening! Ukraine's President Zelensky has met with executives from BlackRock to auction off Ukraine for profit. He solicited this in a recent speech and now it is happening. In case you were wondering who would be enriched by this war: big business. Not you.

Ukraine Receiving Storm Shadow Cruise Missiles + the Propaganda Storm around Bakhmut

Update on the conflict in Ukraine for May 13, 2023:

- Russian media space panics over false claims of Ukraine’s offensive beginning;

- The trading of territory in Bakhmut is typical of urban combat operations and does not indicate a “momentum shift” until the vector sum of the fighting begins favoring Ukraine rather than Russian forces;

- Additional evidence has surfaced that Ukraine is using some of its best military hardware in and around Bakhmut including German-made self-propelled howitzers, indicating that Russian plans to draw in and destroy Ukraine’s best troops and equipment is working;

- Ahead of Ukraine’s offensive, both sides are conducting long-range strikes. For Russia it is about disrupting Ukraine’s offensive potential. For Ukraine it is about shaping the psychological and media landscape of the conflict;

- The Storm Shadow cruise missile is air-launched and for targets deep inside Russian territory to be under threat, Ukrainian warplanes must travel dangerously close ot the line of contact and expose themselves to Russian air defenses. The missiles themselves must circumvent Russian air defense systems and electronic warfare measures;

- The terrain mapping feature most likely will require intelligence sharing between Ukraine and the US-UK in order to make the missile’s use most effective;

- While Storm Shadow missiles and other long-range weapons Ukraine may have will inevitably make it through to their targets these are not capabilities Russia doesn’t already have and in greater abundance. If these are war-winning capabilities, Russia is going to win the war first;
