I would not be surprised if they completely deny he existed like some kind of bond villain that held the whole country to ransom. If I was a betting man he's probably tried to go on a full war setting but being told no by the army. And if they are pushed to much will march.
Izium encircled,10000 russian soldiers surrounded
I hope to hell that's not even close to the front line. One stray Russian aircraft or drone, and you're talking significant casualties.
Said to be in the Kharkiv region.
....
them lawmakers who wanted Putin for treason
and Izyum seems cut off (if not completely surrounded by now)
was it not the case that they ‘fell off’ because they were plucked off by Ukr guns
Liberated without a fight.
Russians have said that the city of Izyum has surrendered. Russian units are trying to withdraw in the last corridor that's open to them but are being shelled.
Doesn't look like they've made it to the rail hub or the eastern side across the river so not completely liberated. But all the same, my God. The Russian collapse has been indictive of their country's image. All deception, trickery, smoke and mirrors. A paper tiger on a monumental scale.
This really is great progress.
Withdrawing is not the same as surrendering. Not surprising they are being shelled.
FFS came down to watch some news and it's all about the pensioner who popped her clogs over the water.
The biggest land battle and victory since WW2 and there's fuk all about it on the news!
The city has been surrendered, their forces are trying to withdraw.
Russians don't think that the east side of the city will be held either. Rybar says to expect more bad news.
It's a huge collapse and the cause is clear, that manpower doesn't exist in this area to stage some sort of defensive rear guard action.
10k russian soldiers in Izium? Sounds a bit unrealistic, when the population of Izium is 45k. If 50k dead, 50k+ injured, 10k in Izium, how many of them are in Kherson, Mariupol, Melitopol, Donetsk, Luhansk, etc
**** sake, talk about timing.
The world needs to know the support for Ukraine is working
Russian news are starting to shape the propaganda effort already. People being told not to panic, Izyum was not important.
The Russians who withdrew from the 2,000 sq kilometers recaptured over the last 2 days went somewhere and probably to the nearest area with a command structure or area with supplies, logically the would seem to be Izium. 10,000 might be conceivable.
Yeah, right, and when the last ruzzkie leaves Ukraine, they will claim that denazication operation was successful and there was no point keeping the troops there.
It's a made up number that someone probably plucked from Twitter.
In a way mr putrid could be better for the West than navalny. putrid is a thief so we see what he's done to his country, hollowed it out. However, if another ultra nationalist who was honest came to power...
Edit to avoid confusion, putrid should be hung from the nearest lamp post.
Am finding Twitter much more difficult as of late trying to wade through trustworthy sources with dodge ones.
Nalvany is a bad guy now ?
Granted buts its not inconceivable, the Russians poured resources into taking it for 2 months for a reason, to use its rail network to get supplies there from Belgograd for an attack on Donetsk Oblast. As the most important rail junction in the area its important. The area arround it has collapsed in recent days and 10,000 is 8% of the original invasion force. As a supply hub for basically the entire area in the North 8% of the total force in Ukraine being in the area does not seem unreasonable.
Completely inconceivable. Going by the speed of the advance, there aren't even 10k troops in the north east region, let alone a single city.
Air raid sirens going off in Kharkiv again. Russia is great at attacking civilians but no good if it's a military they are facing. The sooner they are utterly militarily defeated the better for all.
Russians now reporting that Lyman has been abandoned.
More confirmation from Girkin himself and suggests that a large amount of toys have been left behind,
Incredible how quickly that front has collapsed. Losing Izium is horrific from a strategic point of view.
I've been saying it for months - if they want to be Russian they should go back to where they came from
