aircraft hitting Ukrainian positions
near of Diva on Saturday the military
claimed the capture of a village just
west of the industrial city fighting has
intensified in the denet region the
country’s top military General warning
the situation is deteriorating in the
East the situation on the Eastern Front
has significantly worsened in recent
days this is primarily due to the
significant intensification of the
enemy’s offensive after the presidential
elections in Russia this is facilitated
by the warm dry weather which has made
most of the open areas accessible to
tanks meanwhile life goes on for the
1900 people still living in this
Frontline town called New York but
living under the constant threat of
Russian shelling has become a tiresome
routine we’ve covered all windows and
doors well when it’s getting dangerous

made these racks here
as the war grinds on Germany has vowed
to give Ukraine an extra Patriot missile
defense system to fend off air attacks
the announcement was particularly well
received by President vadir zalinski
who’s been making increasingly desperate
appeals for supplies in recent weeks
Ukraine’s military chief, General Oleksandr Syrskyi, said Saturday that Ukraine’s battlefield situation in the industrial east had “significantly worsened in recent days,” as warming weather allowed Russian forces to launch a fresh push along several stretches of the more than 1,000-kilometer (620-mile) -long front line. In an update on the Telegram messaging app, Syrskyi said that Russian forces had been “actively attacking” Ukrainian positions near the cities of Lyman, Bakhmut and Pokrovsk, and beginning to launch tank assaults as drier, warmer spring weather made it easier for heavy vehicles to move across previously muddy terrain.

At long last you are reporting the TRUTH’
Entire Ukraine's Situation is Worsened..Russia will Capture all territories of Ukraine
Isnt the french army at the frontlines?
Ukraine is doomed to lose and Russia will keep whatever it captures.😂😂😂😂😂
What happened to France Army in Ukraine?
if ukraine is running out of soldiers then let macron send french soldiers as long as he leads them, to certain disaster
Russian self defence
Political solution still on Good solution than using military solution
Where is the Ghost of Kyiv ?
The Ukraine / NATO situation at the eastern front is HOPELESS ! High time to negotiate, rather late than never !
Really sad that the Republicans in the US have become Russian assets and do not want to support a democratic Ukraine.
You misled many people, now you are admitting the truth
Raise the white flag Zelensky . It's over.
ALL you western med!!a told us for 2 years that Ucckkra!!ne was winning.
You ev!l l!ars.
Stopped the war from the entire world…save the earth save the life…
Ukraine's biggest mistake was relying on "Western" powers. What does the imperialist mind bring other than trouble and destruction? Unfortunately, people do not learn from the past and still look for salvation in imperialist powers.
next example: Armenia.
Ukraine bombed Donetsk and Lugansk for 8 years and no one showed it. Now it doesn’t bomb because the front has been pushed back.
Thanks for the scrap metal Germany 😂
When is macron and his soldiers going to the frontline ?
If AFU, notorious for bloviating about shooting down 200 of 30 missiles, says this; you know the truth is ten times worse….
United States government are cowards who send a nation into battle and betray them!
C’mon frenchies you want this smoke 💨
“The liberation of New York by Russian troops” will be an interesting topic for the report😁
Pretty sure anyone with a brain knew this was the obvious outcome.
150 billions did not work out.
Will never receive another 150 billions ever again.
Ukraine is losing, and Ukrainian will blame the West and Maidan and also their stupidity
When will the EU wake up and realize that a 14th packet of sanctions will turn all this around?
Again, the Russian trash is swarming all over this thread. Multiple accounts, pretending to be Americans.
Of course it is. Since traitor Zelensky fired all our good and patriotic generals and appointed a RUSSIAN yes Syrskyj is not only a Russian his family still live peacefully in russia with out being kidnapped by FSB. That alone should tell anyone with a brain that Syrskyj is a traitor and together with traitor Zelensky they are now speeding up the loss by undermining all our defence lines. They have no given 1 dron of hte 1 million promissed. They are trying to stop western help from reaching the front like hte first 300.000 shells given by the EU has still not showed up on the front they are hidden in some warehouse.
Western supply, ukrain casualty.
Ukraine is going down. 😂
Donbass is almost free
well its all because…germany-europe is soo…cheeep!!!!glad amer. is not payyen their bills!!!!!ohh-they will after greedy russia is in their bak yard!!!……..HILLARRIOUS!!!
I thought Ukraine was winning 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
Ukraine is doomed
The Devil whispered in Zelensky's ear and guess what ?The law prohibits negotiations with Russia has already passed. Ukraine can't go back.
But Russia was losing,what happened ? 😂 The chips from the washing machines and shovels seem deadly
NATO , you can start a barber shop😂😂
So stop pushing for war and seek peace?
Problem solved
Sounds like staying neutral was a far smarter idea than all this.
If you can't win with 140 BILLION every year, you're just stealing money in Kiev, & stuffing it in swiss bank accts
This is so called upadlinian "counter-offensive"! Hahahaha
Avdiivka is a village?:) wow, very good village with 33 000 population)
A secret of victory from France 24: when Russia captures a city call it a village. When Ukraine captures a village call it a city.
I wonder what Ukrainians expect from the negotiations?
Over the last year they have only been saying that the situation has worsened. And there is no optimism in expectations of improvement.
Do they really not feel sorry for their people?
While I recognize this is unlikely to occur, perhaps Ukraine should consider aligning with Russia. Russia could provide the necessary funding for rebuilding the country. This would free Ukraine from the constraints of BlackRock owning critical national assets, which could hinder their ability to repay IMF loans post-war.
Without control over these essential assets, Ukraine could find itself heavily indebted to the IMF, effectively under American influence or control. While this perspective may seem controversial, aligning with Russia could offer Ukraine a more stable future. It might appear as a betrayal to those who fought for Ukraine's war (so far), but continued resistance could lead to Ukraine being dominated by American interests if they don't align with Russia.
