The Russians are definitely in the very center of the city and there is no fighting there, here is a video
so the LNR claim of full control of Lysychansk is close to accurate. Not so about the claim about an hour ago about full liberation of LNR — there is one village (Belogorodka) still under the Kiev control. Another day.
As for the Uke propaganda...we’ll know how would spin the events before long, but likely as a strategic regrouping of forces on the way toward Moscow. I suspect that their biggest problem is not surrendering another city but the mounting losses in manpower.
Well... toward Seversk and Artemovsk now.
Good info, thanks.
“a strategic regrouping of forces on the way toward Moscow”.
lol. probably about right, on the spin.

LOL, but their ‘strategic withdraw’ or whatever they tell the media to call it under non-stop shelling and mortar fire - they should have left 2 weeks early while they still had a relatively safe road.
So, now, even less well-trained Ukrainian troops to fight, and a higher percentage of off-the-street types that spend 3 weeks in Poland before being given a rifle and sent to the front lines to ‘hold off the Russians’.
