Sunny stalled so Russia redeploys from the South (also stalled) to concentrate efforts on the Suny front.

Are you really surprised at how low they can go?

No.
It does show they are very close to the end as an attacking force though.
Terrorising civilians and using WMD is the only thing they have left.
The West now has to be strong to counter Russian aggression.

How effective do you suppose a soldier will be during an assault if he has to be forced to go there on a leash? Russia calls this a “minor” leak, which means this ship is probably at the bottom of the bay. /2. This caused the ship to begin sinking and...

****’s big summer push;)



Russian forces are retreating from villages they had occupied in the Sumy region due to unbearable conditions.

According to Russian military correspondents, after suffering heavy losses, enduring several days of operational encirclement, and facing a dire situation, Russian units managed to flee from the villages of Kindrativka and Oleksiyivka in Sumy. These villages are now under the control of Ukrainian forces.

Chaos in Kremlin as panicking Putin fires right-hand man after Russia grinds to halt​

The flight disruption appears to have been triggered by security concerns over buzzing Ukrainian drones, which led to a switch-off of Russian mobile signals.​

Now that the US has withdrawn weapons supply to Ukraine - Ukraine should put the rare earth deal with the US on indefinite hold citing shortage of rare earths for domestic production.

Fucking A-Hole Trump. FIght fire with fire.

No point in tearing it up at the moment as nothing is being mined and Zelenskyy can keep reminding trump that he signed a deal

Disagree.

There is indeed a cause to push back - because the USA has withdrawn weapons supplies to the Ukraine on a pretext. So counter with your own pretext. Nothing to lose - Trump was never going to honor this deal in the first place.

All of this support for Ukraine in return for rare earths deal with Trump was bullshit from the beginning - but maybe there's a chance that the US could continue to supply weapons to Ukraine if optics for Trump are poor.
