So far after close to three months of offensive operations since June with heavy casualties, Zelensky's regime has yet to capture Robotyne...

The Ireland Government has threatened to evict a few Ukrainian refugees if they refuse to pay their own meals. The Ukrainian refugees living at hotels in County Mayo have been directed to start paying for food, laundry and maintenance of their pets. The government directive hasn't gone down well with the refugees, who have now opposed it calling it "discrimination."


Volodymyr Zelensky quipped that Ukraine is ready for "territorial exchange." Zelensky dismissed suggestions that Kyiv might surrender certain territories to Russia. He joked that Ukraine would instead be willing to give up control of the Russian border region of Belgorod, which is repeatedly attacked by Kyiv-aligned forces. The Ukrainian President said this during a joint press conference with the Danish PM. Zelensky looked super pumped up during the press meet after the F-16 aid confirmation.
Dream on joining NATO. 🤡


Russia has once again dashed Ukraine's hopes to break through its defences in Donetsk. The Russian defence ministry claimed that several western vehicles and equipment were blown up during fierce battles in the last 24 hours. It also released a new video of Russian FPV drone blowing up another set of Ukrainian armoured vehicles.


Sweden has turned down Ukraine's request to get Gripen fighter jets amid Russia's war. The Swedish PM announced that the NATO aspirant won't be handing over the fighter jets right now. Ulf Kristersson added that Sweden needs the Gripens for its own defence.
Zelensky thinks that Sweden is a giant IKEA store.

Sure. If you can't find it, it doesn't exist nor did it happen.

because you see...
according to google, that Krasny Liman is about 10 to 12 km at least from the nearest frontlines and most likely to be pretty heavily defended.

unless russian forces suddenly got air superiority and can paradrop in large scale, that is like very highly unlikely scenario.

23.07.23 Russian army using 5 tanks tried to capture our positions near Spirne, Donetsk oblast.

My friend shared photos of that attack and told me some details.
RUAF launched their attack using kamikadze MT-LB. Fortunately for us, it didn’t reach the goal.

WarGonzo's Pegov thought an interview with mobiks would be a great idea, but they revealed how back home, they're not so popular, even called murderers.
