Russian forces have made two cross border assaults inside northern Ukraine, according to information from Ukrainian sources and officials – in what President Volodymyr Zelensky is calling a ‘new wave of counteroffensive actions” by Russia.
Russian forces have made two cross-border assaults inside northern Ukraine, according to information from Ukrainian sources and officials, in what President Volodymyr Zelensky is calling a “new wave of counteroffensive actions” by Russia.
In the first development, Russian soldiers penetrated at least one kilometer towards the town of Vovchansk, a Ukrainian military source told CNN. The aim, the source said, “was to get 10 km deep and create a buffer zone at the border to secure Russian territory from feeling the war.”
In an official statement, Ukraine’s Defense Ministry said Russian soldiers supported by armored vehicles had moved across the border at about 5:00am Friday, following a day of stepped-up attacks on the border area with guided aerial bombs and artillery.
The statement added that Ukrainian reserve units had been deployed to strengthen defenses in the area.
More like they’re trying to consolidate some territorial gains before the new tranche of military aid gets fully disseminated.
I will never forgive those fascist republican shitstains for a lot of things, but their helping to orchestrate the strategic weakening of Ukraine over the last 6 or so months is very fucking high on their list of crimes.
This is also a good example of the general dysfunction of our government. Try imagining moving any project along when replicants keep start/stopping resources. Those resources include people.
