More than 1,000 Ukrainian marines have surrendered in the besieged port of Mariupol, Russia’s defense ministry said on Wednesday of Moscow’s main target in the eastern Donbas region which it has yet to bring under its control.

If the Russians take the Azovstal industrial district, where the marines have been holed up, they would be in full control of Mariupol, Ukraine’s main Sea of Azov port, which would allow Russia to reinforce a land corridor between separatist-held eastern areas and the Crimea region that it seized and annexed in 2014.

Ukraine has a pretty hefty military budget. Wonder what they did with the money?

They’ve been surrounded for well over a month, with no resupply.

Ukraine is surrendering. But the real question is…did the Democrats have time to destroy all their fraudulent dealing documents? Until then, Democrats will fight to the last Ukrainian!

Yeah u would think putin would just go home because his takeover of Ukraine ain’t going to happen. You’d think he would get the hint when he was kicked out the nirth

Can’t get bullets through a siege. They were “starved” out. It’s not like they can drop stuff from a C17 into that area.

“ This whole stupid war was avoidable”

Every war is avoidable if one side surrenders on day 1.

In the south of Ukraine along the coast, Russian naval power has been decisive. Not much Ukraine could do without a navy.

How could Ukraine surrender? They have more tanks than they started with! Where’s the Ghost of Kiev? Russia has lost 20,000 men, all their armor, and half their troops have deserted!

This can’t be happening!

I feel like I’m being lied to. Maybe I’ll go on Twitter for the truth. It’s better now that they’ve suspended all the accounts posting Russian disinformation and Kremlin propaganda.
