Ukraine recaptures Black Sea peninsula, blasts hit Russian area
TRT World [Turkish Public Broadcaster] ^ | November 22, 2022 | TRT Staff Reporter

Ukraine has recaptured almost the entire southern Mykolaiv region on an isolated peninsula off the Black Sea where fighting is ongoing, the local governor said.

Kiev's troops have been pushing out Russian forces from the southern Mykolaiv and Kherson regions and recently recaptured Kherson city, which was the only regional capital Moscow's forces had taken since February.

"We are restoring full control over the region. We have three settlements left on the Kinburn Split to officially no longer be a region at war," said Mykolaiv regional governor Vitaly Kim on social media.

“The government is making plans to evacuate residents who want to leave from Kherson and Mykolaiv, where fighting has badly damaged the infrastructure.”

Weird but telling that you think it's funny that the Russians devastated Kherson with petty scorched earth vandalism before fleeing like rats in the night.

But they did get a raccoon out of it!

Raccoon lives matter.

“We expect 2–3 million more people to leave their homes in search of warmth and safety. They will face unique health challenges, including respiratory infections such as Covid-19, pneumonia and influenza, and the serious risk of diphtheria and measles in under-vaccinated populations,” Kluge stated.”

If the Russians told the US they are building bioweapon research labs in Mexico, and they were going to park offensive military weapons there, as they brought them into the Warsaw Pact, I’m not so sure we would have reacted by occupying Mexico City (again).

Mexico doesn’t own any tanks. We made it clear to them that should they ever start, we’d consider it an act of war, for example.

Pretty sure NATO, and especially the US, started this. I’m also pretty sure the Ukraine is a hotbed and hub of very shady sh!t perpetrated by prominent world politicians who are benefitting personally from criminal acts.

I also believe this war is a cover for supercharging the funneling of taxpayer dollars into the pockets of politicians and others under the cover of supporting the ‘brave Ukrainians’.

If I thought that this might just destroy only Russian and Ukraine, I’d give more of a sh!t. I think it might in a very real way lead to a larger war, which is why everyone involved in getting to this point needs to be lined up against a wall and shot dead, their families charged for the ammunition.

Trump’s most remarkable achievement was keeping the US out of new wars, while promising that the next idiot that dragged us into a war was going to be utterly destroyed. A very peaceful time, with low gas prices and peace in the middle east.

It wasn’t that long ago, but it seems like it never happened.

The map causes one to wonder why Putin invaded the Ukraine in the first place. Over 90% of Russia is underdeveloped and has huge amounts of land for agriculture and natural resources. Putin needs to take care of business in Russias remote regions and get out of the Ukraine.

I saw a video of a deserted Kerson area warehouse storing mortar shells. It was hurredily deserted by the general retreat.

The troops there were living in squalor. Food and water rationing was apparent.

There were many washing machines in the warehouse certainly looted from Ukranian homes.

Russians were invading their neighbors before NATO ever existed.

Because Comrade Putin has this mad dream of rebuilding the Soviet Union before checking out, and extending Kremlin control over all Russians, no matter where they live, even in Alaska.

Article by Vladimir Putin ”On the Historical Unity of Russians and Ukrainians“

Putin approves new foreign policy doctrine based on 'Russian World'

Putin's ambition is even grander than Hitler and Stalin's.

That, in addition to a shared hatred along with his supporters of that uppity Jew in Kyiv who dares to stand up to Russian aggression. Putin's twisted, Hitlerite fantasy of yet more "lebensraum" is not going as planned.

Uks are attempting to clear the port of Mykolaiv by recapturing the Kinburn peninsula

Mykolaiv pre war shipped 1/3 of Ukraine exports

So its a big deal for them

Oh, please! If this were about NATO threats to Russia then let Russia accept Ukrainian neutrality in exchange for a complete pull-out of Russian troops from Ukraine. The claim of Russia fearing a NATO expansion is just a cover for Putin’s desire to rebuild a greater Russian empire.
