CNN — Russia claimed Sunday that its forces are for the first time pushing into the central Ukrainian region of Dnipropetrovsk, an area it has been trying to reach for months, in a move that could create new problems for Kyiv’s much-stretched forces. Subunits from the Russian military’s 90th tank division reached the border of Dnipropetrovsk with the Donetsk region, large parts of which are already under Russian occupation, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense. After this, they continued into Dnipropetrovsk, the defense ministry claimed.

Speaking of bodies, when is Ukraine going to take possession of those 6 thousand dead soldier's bodies they agreed to?

Russia claims to have pushed into central Ukrainian region for first time

Yup, because Putin wants "peace" and not the annihilation of a free and independent Ukraine, as stated in his 5,000 word essay, on the official Kremlin website which states that Ukraines independence was a historical mistake and where Putin says "I am confident that true sovereignty of Ukraine is possible only in partnership with Russia.”

At the 2008 NATO Summit in Bucharest, Putin made this clear when he told then US President George W. Bush that “Ukraine is not even a state.” Putin has also repeatedly referred to Ukraine as “little Russia,” a Tsarist-era term to describe Ukrainian lands.

They claim 200,000 Ukrainian soldiers are missing and that 6,000 AFU bodies were refused from Russia at the checkpoint in Belarus.

Seems the Ser-vant of the People who spoke Russian in his TV show is in his final few episodes.

The high quality media company known as Ukraine is being exposed for the cynically fleeced money go-round.

Ukriane was brought to you by the same folks who gave us the Biden Stealth Presidency, Carney’s Victory in Canada and Covid.

My sentiments about the Russia-Ukraine dispute changed dramatically after I learned that Putin largely reflects the vision for Ukraine that was espoused by the iconic Soviet dissident Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

Reading the writings of Solzhenitsyn on this subject — dating all the way back to 1968 — was quite a revelation.

from the article: "Russia claimed Sunday that its forces are for the first time pushing into the central Ukrainian region of Dnipropetrovsk..."

Russian claims are not yet confirmed by western sources.

I wouldn't get overly concerned just yet.
Likely any advances by Russian forces are similar to those of the past two+ years -- a cloud of dust, a thousand Russian soldiers dead, a mile advanced each day.

Russia deploys mobile crematoriums to follow its troops into battle
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2022/02/23/russia-deploys-mobile-crematorium-follow-troops-battle/

Russia’s use of mobile crematoriums reveals a chilling disregard for its own soldiers. These grim machines follow troops into combat zones — not to support them, but to erase them. No bodies to bury, no graves to mourn, and crucially, no compensation owed to grieving families.

To the Kremlin’s deep-state war machine, its citizens are expendable tools in a brutal imperialist / globalist campaign. The lives of young conscripts are burned away, both literally and metaphorically, in service of a regime that treats transparency, humanity, morality and Christian values as liabilities.

The real enemy of the Russian people isn’t abroad — it’s entrenched in Moscow. Until that changes, ordinary Russians will continue to suffer the consequences of a Kremlin government that sees them as disposable.

Concerning casualties.

This is about 8 days old. Vlogger walking through a festival in Moscow. He’s Australian and has been doing youtube since before 2022.

I see 1) No women in mourning 2) The occasional frown at a camera. 3) Some smiles. Some joking. 4) People having a good time and just zero odds this is staged. Very normal appearing. And be aware he does these every few days. No time to stage anything so very carefully to deceive me, not that anyone would care.

McGruff: "Speaking of bodies, when is Ukraine going to take possession of those 6 thousand dead soldier's bodies they agreed to?"

jumper: "They claim 200,000 Ukrainian soldiers are missing and that 6,000 AFU bodies were refused from Russia at the checkpoint in Belarus."

Why are you guys repeating Russian propaganda lies here?
You well know it's pure nonsense.

The alleged 200,000 missing Ukrainian soldiers is just Russian propaganda, confirmed by nobody, ever.

Russia-Ukraine body exchanges are a joke.
Russians load up their alleged Ukrainian bodies with Russian corpses, so they won't have to pay the Russian families for their own dead soldiers.

So far, only 15% of the alleged 6,000 Ukrainian bodies have been identified as Ukrainian.
Russians are in no hurry to identify the remaining 85%.

And Russia still hasn’t pushed the Ukrainians back far enough to stop them from shelling the people in Donetsk City.

Russia moves into the natural gas heartland now, Dneipropetrovsk.

Look what you did now, Zelinsky, what you gave up now by your little stunt. This is going to cost the biggest Natural Gas basin in Ukraine.

I know because I worked there to try to obtain drilling rights there after the first Orange Revolution. It was Impossible because endemic Ukrainian corruption.

Ruzzia has a lot more bodies to throw at this War than Yookland.

Why no maps? A map would make this article so much more informative.
