Russia said on Thursday it had captured the town of Chasiv Yar in eastern Ukraine after nearly 16 months of fighting, opening the way for potential further advances.
Russia's Defence Ministry said in a brief statement its forces had "liberated" the town.

Certainly took a while, but it looks like the Neocons have themselves a real mess in Pokrovsk and it may fall in closer to 16 days, rather than 16 months.
Yay. Another Ukrainian village genocidally erased by invading Russian Nazis.
Chasiv Yar? What is this, Lord of the Rings?
Stalingrad, Berlin, Pokrovsk? ROFLMAO.
No, it was the tough chick Star Trek: Next Generation killed off in Season 1.
At this rate, Russia will be in Kiev the day the last living Russian and Ukie fight it out with sharpened spoons.
They only have 8 days though before Trump puts a stop to the war.
“They only have 8 days though before Trump puts a stop to the war.”
LOL - more like 8 days until we stop trading with India and China, and then have to deal with the effects.
Z saying this is fake news .

Our establishment is a joke.
They cry & squeal about tariffs for 7 months, but support every ounce of economic stupidity directed at third party nations when it comes to their precious Russia Ukraine War.
It’s pure hypocrisy.
This whole war is to support the left and deep state with US money.
They never gave Ukraine enough weapons or the right ones to win. And tied their hands to only defense.
Then Europe benefits from cheaper Russian gas. While we send just enough to Ukraine to keep them fighting.
Screw them all! Ukraine, russia and western Europe. Hopefully Ukraine and Russia destroy each other. And Western Europe goes bankrupt.
This was a perfect battle for both sides.
Ukriane lost 7,500 during this period. In other battles for cities, they lost between 15-70,000. The battle shows tactics changing.
The Russians put their Zero Timeline Results Oriented tactics on full display. Rather than simply send in the the infantry, they choose to identify and destroy enemy forces, and the use of flanking operations.
The entire war is being fought on a similar tactical basis. Russia is not sacrificing soldiers for gorund, but they are expending vast quantities of ammunition and other munitons; coupled with flanking operations, they encircle any ukrainian plugs to the front.
A typical frontline situation, playing out over days or weeks, even months, will show that Russia will advance and capture a position, followed by the Ukrainian counterattack before defensive positions can be established. NOW THE CHANGE - The Russians anticipate the counterattack and they envelope to the left and righ breaking beyond the initial penetration. The Ukrainian forces will then be enveloped, but the Russan soldiers do not directly attack them, but allow artillery, FABs and drones do the dirty work - the soldiers will focus on the retreating rements.
The fact that Russia has sacrificed spped for results have flipped the age old maximum of attackers requiring 3-1 advantage. Today, the Russians are focused on destruction of the AFU.
There is no timeline for any engagement. It is dependent upon the priority given to hammer the opposing forces.
With frontline Drone Parity, Ukraine can slow but not change the outcome. Russia has also adapted to the drone centric battlefield and no longer take the losses to drones as they did three years ago.
Yesterday, a train form Romainia carrying Mercenaries and munitions for F-16s was destroyed. Also, a NATO hospital facility for Mercenaries was destroyed chock full of Merc’s.
When on considers the SMO is now an Anti-Terrorist Operation from the Russian perspective, it tells us why no Merc’s are repariated, nor any AZOV. When found wounded or captured due to surrender, the Russians collect their passports and identity papers, and wait for the Intelligence forces to interrogate them before they are executed. Not a good job to be a paid combatant from NATO or Columbia, or even S.Korea.
Ukraine is running out of men. No longer are defensive positons fully manned. Russia continues to capture entire fortified lines where there are few if any Ukrainian soldiers. In places where there might have been a company defending, today Ukraine is lucky to field a platoon. Most of the guys on the Ukrainian front lines are now Shanghai’d conscripts taken off the streets. It is far better to volunteer for a unit and get training....
Ukraine continues to counterattack to plug a gap, but soon due to the surrounding envelopment tactics, they find they are now three gaps to fill. Eventually the dike can not be plugged by a boy putting a finger in a hole, but the leaks become breaking floods.
I do not understand this. The invincible Russian army everyone fears, because when they get done mopping up Ukraine, then they will go for western Europe.
So if it took the Ruskies 16 months to conquer a village, at that rate they might take western Europe by the year 2095.
Ukraine in 2022 had a NATO designed and fully trained active duty force of 800k, with 400k NG/reserves.
Russia had only 540k worldwide.
Ukraine has had NATO leadership and funding. NATO decided on an updated WWI defensive line battle, backed by 70,000k mech/armor thrusts every summer on offensive. They went for Crimea in 2023 and lost 175,000 between May-Oct; Russia went over to a slow creepting offensive posture. In August 2024 Ukraine sent over 70,000 soldier into Kursk which started as a two fold operation; hold land close to launch misisles into Moscow, and also to capture a nuclear facility and nuclear depot for munitions. They were stopped and a dozen columns of NATO trained and directed units streamed from the logjam towards the nuke plant but were desicameted.
Ukraine still wants to go back to Kursk so they can show the west how successful they are and we will suck it up.
And the final part to answer you question - the Biden Arms package is still streaming into Ukraine without any stoppage.
Anything Trump does has been essentially VERBAL. They have been given everything Biden promised, to include German *Tarus Missiles.
How are not given what they needed?
*Germanbt ius going to love being targeted in response to the 4th Reich.
The fear mongering that is behind the easily discredited propoganda saying Russia will invade EUrope is simply BS.
If Russia wanted to attack EUrope it would be with missiles and drones, as NATO does to Russia.
The EU politicians trolling for money always use that wornout lie - THE RUSSIANS ARE COMING.
Russia full aware the west is ruled by Pedifiles and that we are becoming our worst enemies. The Russians are not going to leberate the EUropeans from their Godless Master of Homosexuality and Immigaration.
Your analysis misses one pretty big thing. At the start of the war Ukraine was trained and organized around old soviet equipment.
Then they got new equipment from the west but it was a bunch of different systems. Anyone that has been it the military knows that’s insane, but you do what you have to.
Where as if they were given one type of tank and enough of them. And given one type of Jet and trained on it they would have faired better.
And most importantly they had their hands tied and were told they can’t go into Russia with those weapons. Our US Doctrine is always one of being on the attack. But we forced them to do the opposite.
My point is Russia really is a crap army. They should have been able to steamroll Ukraine. Especially since Ukraine wasn’t even preparing for the invasion...they thought Russia was bluffing.
Ukraine had nearly a 3-1 advantage. They have burned thru everything NATO had available. Russia was using the same Soviet era crap but against a NATO trained and equipmend, and most importantly LED BY NATO GENERALS IN GERMANY.
Today Russia adapted and Ukraine did not.
There are no steamrollers in the age of drone warfare. There is only slow grinding probing and capturing of ground within reach.
But thank you for reading and commenting. I can’t get it all correct from everyone’s viewpoint, but Trump and NATO are nowhere ready to deal with the Russian Military that they forced into existance.
By the fall of 2026 Russia will have 2.2m men under arms. This bad news for Ukraine. Additonally, occupation forces in Ukraine will not only be Russians, they will come from everywhere with those countries aligned in defensive pacts. We may even find North Koreans in some areas.
No they didn’t have a 3 to 1 advantage. I see you just ignored everything I said.
Have a good day.
