'UK Ministry of Defence 'said in its daily intelligence briefing that Russian forces have “highly likely advanced into the [Bakhmut] town centre, and has seized the West Bank of the Bakhmutka River. Ukraine’s key supply route to the west of the town is likely severely threatened.”
'Eastern Military Command' spokesperson Serhiy Cherevatyi said that Ukraine controlled 'the situation' in Bakhmut, understood Russian intentions and that Moscow had tactical success in some places, but was paying a high price for it.

But ... but ... but ... I thought it was Ukraine winning send money?
Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov:
“Any negotiation needs to be based on taking into account Russian interests, Russian concerns. It should be about the principles on which the new world order will be based.”
According to the agency, he added that Russia rejects a “unipolar world order led by ‘one hegemon’.”
France’s Macron said:
“The international order is now weakened and we have a responsibility, China and France, to preserve it and at the same time to reinvent it in the light of the realities of the 21st century.”
Russia and Russia jr. No thanks.
We're going to see some scrambling by the FR neoconneds today on the true Ukraine casualty figures.
408 days of 10% for the Big Guy!
Win-win!
Ukraine IS winning with our money.
We’ve sent so much that the dollars are piled 10’ feet high from border to border across the entire country.
There is no longer any room for any russians or their tanks and equipment.

-An official claimed that Ukraine’s surrender hotline had a record number of calls in March.
-He said Ukraine is already using armored vehicles handed over by surrendering Russians.
-The “I Want to Live” hotline allows Russian soldiers to call up and pre-arrange a surrender.
All reports from all sources are at least somewhat suspect… so far everything has been highly spun to support calls for more money, or excite or depress one side or the other.
Opinions on what one thinks ought to happen are useless because the deciders in this thing have no good outcomes in mind. Putin ought to … not happening. NATO should … nope.
Oh no doubt....I’m already seeing it, though it often comes in simply denial or calling people with comments or opinions or other news sources as liars. Their attacks are always the same.
As I see it the world leaders agreed to sacrifice the Ukrainian people for their own World Agenda....Zelensky said “Okay”.
Going into this was a fools game as I see it....but then we are simply the peasants watching their deadly games.
I actually think now that Biden himself hardly knows what he is or not getting - But his wife Jill and her Crime Family certainly do. Ya gotta wonder who handles their finances?
Russia's winter and spring offensive has... seized a grand total of half of a town with a prewar population of 70,000. Pathetic.
Day 408 of a ten-day war to conquer Ukraine and make it Soviet again.
Congrats! At this rate, Russia will achieve its revised goal of conquering all of Donetsk and Luhansk by the year 2100 or so.
There's battle fatigue on both sides of this war
Which is happening, according to the leaked documents.
The bonus is demilitarizing NAFO.
It’s called a “cauldron” ... partially surround an area, tempt the Ukrainian army to enter ... and destroy them. A very different type of warfare.
