“I hear Ukraine has begun evacuating Kharkiv, various countries are telling the citizens to get out. I don’t know if this is true, given all the propaganda that gets thrown out, if it is true, Kharkiv is a large major city and would be a big blow to Ukraine.”
There are highway pictures out of Ukraine that looks like a Houston hurricane evacuation, complete with inbound traffic lanes carrying outbound traffic.
As it is, no need to order an evacuation as Russian has PERMANENTLY (as in many months or several years) shut down power to Kharkiv by taking out the control centers and generation facilities at its major plants and also taking out the high voltage transformers that feed the city. So not much reason to stay there in any case.
If this is true and I have no reason to believe it’s not, unless the Ukrainian army puts up a fierce resistance then Kharkiv will get a real pounding from Russian artillery.
If the Ukrainian Army pulls back to another defensive line, there would be no reason to level the city.
I heard in the same report that Odessa is the next city after Kharkiv to be encircled and taken.
We’ll see, but never fear the 60 billion that eventually will be sent to them by the US will save the day.
