Update on the conflict in Ukraine for January 15, 2024…

- US-Chilean citizen Gonzalo Lira is confirmed dead by the US State Department, having died in a Ukrainian prison with serious health issues neglected by his jailers. He was imprisoned for criticizing Kiev;

- Russia continues using a strategy of attrition across the line of contact, particularly in places like Avdeevka where Ukrainian positions are steadily degraded;

- Russian forces continue carrying out large-scale drone and missile strikes on targets across Ukraine;

- Ukraine admits a growing crisis in terms of air defense capabilities with its Western sponsors unable to supply an adequate number of interceptors for launchers transferred to Ukraine;

- Russia is continuing to expand production of existing drones and missiles while also developing new drones and missiles with greater capabilities, further stressing Ukraine’s already stretched combat capabilities;

- Previous dismissal of Russian-Iranian defense cooperation has now led to a demonstrable strategic crisis for Ukraine and the collective West;

- Ukrainian commanders are requesting what amounts to an entire army’s worth of equipment including an entire air force worth of replacement aircraft;

So we are now allowing our foreign welfare recipients like Zelinski to murder our citizens and our journalists???

I’d wait for the outrage from our media but I know it’s not coming!

So I guess loser Lira shouldn’t have tried to slip the country after getting bail for working as a Kremlin agent and doxxing Ukrainian service people and other journalists covering the war. The guy was a complete sleazebag and was no journalist at all. He was barely American too.

Ukrainian prisons are so bad that European countries won’t turn prisoners over to them, because the Ukies don’t meet EU standards (apparently, the EU frowns on murdering prisoners - unlike some FR neocons).

And, this is the Biden state department admitting this, which no doubt means that the human rights are much worse than this report admits.

>Why did you hide the name of the greasy lying Rooters propagandist Mark Trevelyan?

No worries! I made sure he’s tied to his other FR Ukie propaganda through the keywords.<

Good catch!
