A top Ukrainian commander accused Moscow of using "scorched earth" tactics.

Maybe if Ukraine just destroyed more Orthodox churches and looked toward some sleeper Russian spies. Their spies are some of the best in the world.

Ukraine is losing thus the finger pointing and paranoia.

The Ukrainians are losing and this is an effort to cover for that by making all sorts of false claims.....just as our side has done since the start of this unnecessary war.

CIA leaked it.

In a week or so the story will be, “We can’t muster an offensive because the Russians know everything!” They’re already talking it down. Plus they’re ramping up action against China.

Nope, Newsmax is reprinting Rooters Propaganda and Rooters says:

"Reuters could not verify the battlefield accounts."

Why bother? They told us it was Russian disinformation.
