Ukraine wants to negotiate before november come because when trump wins in november it might be no aid or destruction of ukraine
The start of falling of russia
"Why is Ukraine doing this?"
They're being invaded. This is like asking why a kid punched a bully who burned down his home and killed his mom.
shakes head
Ukr, will annex its new territory called New Kraine state
2nd annex state will be new blk state slowly gaining new states
Trump praised the "strong men" Xi, Putin and Kim Jong Un, and their strong borders. Someone (Elon) should have reminded him that the "strong" Russian border has just been proven weak and Ukraine now holds many km of land in the Kursk region of Russia.
Also do the young Russian men dying in Putins meat grinder war appreciate Trump fawning over Putin
American equipment bought by Ukraine from the US with money America gave them. Aka money laudering 101 Aka why America is struggling
Very reminiscent of the Battle of the Bulge in WW2, and will probably have similar results.
Fascist propaganda machine
In the Bible the bear will not be defeated. Now Russia will take it all over.
There are 15 million prople left in Ukraine.6millon old people ,war victems. The population is very low There is nothing left of the Ukraine.And some say they are winning.
Ukraine would have become a Industrial power, without this war,That is why the west put Zelensky in power. To prevent this I call it hostile intervention, to wipe out competition.
If russia attack then they are attacking inside their own country. That where the missiles belongs.
This propaganda will be fun to watch in some years, or even earlier.
Cowards will be cowards 😅 That's the US NATO EU etc…
Look what the greed of one man gets his country. SMH
Despite the attempts of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) to contain large Russian forces in battles in the Russian border Kursk region, the pace of Russian advance is growing on the Donbass frontlines. The Pokrovsk direction in the Donetsk People’s Republic remains one of the most dangerous for the Ukrainian military. More and more settlements are coming under Russian control one after another. Another Russian victory was officially reported on August 12. The Russian Forces confirmed the full control of the village Lisichnoe in the Pokrovsk direction.
According to preliminary reports, the village of Sviridonovka came under Russian control too. As a result of the recent attacks, the Russian Army launched assault in the town of Grodovka.
In total, in July 2024, Center and South groups of Russian troops liberated 19 settlements of the Donetsk People’s Republic.
Russian troops are holding the initiative in the Donetsk direction, successfully grinding Ukrainian defenses. Currently, Russian forces took control of urban areas in Krasnogorovka. The town was turned into a large heavily fortified stronghold of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the outskirts of the Donetsk urban agglomeration. The Russian Army is completing the mop up operations on the northwestern outskirts of the town.
Over the past week, the settlements of Timofeevka and Veseloye have been liberated by Russian forces in the Donetsk direction. The Russian military is completing the mop up operations in the settlements of Ivanovka, Sergeevka, Makeyevka, Kirovo, Artemovo and Zhelannoe.
Russian precision strikes are destroying Ukrainian military infrastructure in the rear regions. Russian missiles are pounding Ukrainian airfields on a regular basis. On August 13, the Russian Forces confirmed of the recent successful strikes in Ukrainian rear.
Russian Iskander-M missile attacked Ukrainian Mirgorod military airfield in the Poltava region. As a result of the precision strike, Su-27 of the Ukrainian Air Force was destroyed.
As usual, Russian reconnaissance UAV was coordinating the attack and filmed the results.
Ukrainian air defense is still failing to protect the strategically important facilities despite the transfer of additional expensive air defense systems to Ukraine.
A Diversion, yes….but perhaps for an even larger Ukraine Attack elsewhere. No one expected this……..except Ukraine.
😘
Russia is now bombing Russia , things are looking up for Ukraine.
Who confirms Russia struck back. Kyiv has never been shy about reporting missile attacks and air strikes. The first casualty of war is truth
That's what you called fake back by the russia. A strategy used in dota 2.
If the US has the ability to send Ukrain money, its people are being taxed too much. We should all be unified on that before we get into weeds of our own differences. I don't care about these people, while our country looks past our home-grown suffering.
Zelensky is a crazy, arrogant guy. took soldiers and equipment aided by the US and Nato and threw them into the crematorium. What Ukrainian forces achieved was presence, not occupation. If the Russian army blocks the retreat route, the Ukrainian army will not know where to go😂😂
Its amazing how you didn’t see that the purpose of the incursion is to neutralize the places where the attacks to Ukranian soil are originated. Of course there is an strategic behind but they are trying to save lifes.
every body knew results right away.
you won a little battle but lost the war.
this theme repeated many times here and there then and now.
So shallow
Russ is loosing very badly in Ukraine
Imagine if Putin was actually trying to make their own country better
None of this crap from both sides is true, just words with no real proof and IF THE LYING ANTICHRIST MEDIA HAD ANY CREDIBILITY THEY WOULD FACT CHECK THIS CRAP BEFORE THEY REPORT IT.
When they push Putin aginst the wall, the Nukes will fall.
Poorly prepared map. Kursk Region was not marked correctly.
Prayers to Putin safety and the people of Russia
<GROAN> more talking heads "speculating" LOL – no, sorry, this nonsense won't fly – the Ukrainian High Command is keeping tight-lipped for a reason – but, don't worry – when the UA captures Moscow, everything will be revealed to you for your understanding
Ever since Putin came back into power, the US has been giving him the cold shoulder to isolate Russia from the EU and Nato. Some high ranking US officials over the years, including US Presidents, have reneged on promises and sentiments toward Russia, further straining relations. This is why Russia has been pecking at Ukraine for the last 20 years. Russia has so much distrust from Western diplomatic offenses and exclusivism. Now, Russia finds itself in total isolation from the West, except the fact that some Nato nations still depend on them for fuel. The bottom line is the US has provoked this conflict for the benefit of the big bankers, neocons, globalists, and the MIC. The inner circle in WA DC should be ashamed of themselves for scamming the American public as well as the rest of the world. Blood for money and population control. All roads lead to Rome.
نريد اتحاد.سوفيتي.يرجع..والله.ان.مريكا.بترجع.زي.ادجاجه..يابوتين….يمني.مر.من.اكرنيا
Russia now has the 2nd best military in Russia
Fake News, Ukraine can't even get their own land back. Putin could smoke that whole region, you're stoking the Bear.
Key point:
Russian territory is measured by miles
other places measured by square miles.
Basto all cantry
