>The grouping of Ukrainian forces a fighting in the Donbass against the Donetsk and Lugansk People's Militias has lost more than 7,000 troops, accounting for over a quarter of its total strength, Rudskoy said. The Russian military has prevented the replenishment of these forces, taking control of railway junctions and key roads. The supply of missiles and ammunition, fuel and food to these units has been almost completely stopped, he said, with remaining stockpiles of weapons and fuel in the relevant areas being destroyed in strikes.

Mariupol
ommenting on the situation in Mariupol, the major southeastern Ukrainian coastal city which has seen heavy fighting in recent weeks, Rudskoy said that over 7,000 Ukrainian militants, among them Azov, Aidar and Right Sector neo-Nazi units, are concentrated in the area, taking cover behind civilians and using them as human shields. "Fighters from the Azov Regiment are driving women and children out of basements, threatening them with weapons, and directing them toward advancing DPR units in order to impede their advance. This has become common practice for them," he said. The Main Operations Directorate chief said that a total of over 270 settlements previously controlled by Ukrainian forces are now controlled by Lugansk and Donetsk forces, and that the latter are now operating alongside Russian forces to liberate settlements west of Donetsk. Rudskoy said Ukraine's military created a heavily-echeloned, well-fortified defense zone in the Donbass over the past eight years consisting of a "monolithic" network of concrete structures, forcing advancing Russian and militia units to conduct heavy strikes against enemy strong points and reserve positions before proceeding to avoid losses. Rudskoy assured that the Russian military operation in Ukraine will continue until the goals outlined by the Russian president are met.

If this isn't some NWO plot that starts WW3 then I think this short war will go down in history as
>Russia bombed the Ukrainians until they agreed to be at peace

>memes aside, Ukraine lost Yeah but add in obligatory memes and Ukraine won. So who won really?
Lucas Scott
russians were always right with what they said. Everything else is cheap hohol and western propaganda and fake sobstories
Russians don't need propaganda, because there is nobody left to convince, the west made up its mind and Russians can't change it with or without propaganda

"... signs of actual, on the ground progress were elusive. Ukrainian forces have been unable to demonstrate they control villages or towns previously held by the Russian army."
"The deputy police chief of Irpin, Oleksandr Bogai, said Russian soldiers were still in the town, occupying several districts and fighting Ukrainian forces. That is essentially the same situation that has persisted for nearly the entire month of the war."
In Makariv, another battleground town to the west of Kyiv that Ukrainian officials claimed to have recaptured this week, the fighting was also ongoing, Vadym Tokar, the mayor, said in a telephone interview."
"'I don’t understand where this nonsense came from,' he [Mayor Tokar] said of reports his town had been liberated. 'It is not true. We have shelling and we have Russian tanks shooting into the town right now.'"
"The head of the Kyiv regional military administration, Oleksandr Pavliuk, said Thursday that the counteroffensive had managed to 'improve positions' in Irpin and Makariv, but did not assert control."
"Russian forces have continued to make advances in eastern Ukraine, where its military claimed on Thursday to have captured Izyum, a provincial town in the Kharkiv region."
It's not that hard to see through their lies desu. To be able to mount an effective counter-offensive, you need to have tanks, bmps - bigger than battalion-size. Ukraine has none left. My guess is that they'll surrender land and declare neutrality maximum 4 weeks from now.

>Holy fuck lmao
Post Russian propaganda comparable to the fake Ukrainian-Western propaganda that we are flooded with. Remember that facts you don't agree with don't count as "Russian propaganda."
I haven't seen any other than video affirming military targets are hit (when claimed to be civilians)
Alexander Russell
yep, they will probably surrender after they realise that NATO can't be pulled into this. That was the plan all along, they dragged this on in hopes of making it a WW conflict.
If it's not on RT or Sputniknews, then it's fake leaf fren
sputniknews is one of the fastest updating english language russian sites and it's not blocked in Canada so you can check them regularly for confirmation of sketchy news
>key part of Ukraine's war plan The Russians sound like they're full of shit too, but I can only assume the Russians aren't relying on propaganda nearly as much as the western/Ukraine side is, because this Kony 2012 tier fervor their whipping up is ridiculous. It's kind of fucked up to continue this whole narrative when redditers are going over there and getting killed left and right because they think the Russians are on the run and they're being given cover by Ton Clancy characters
Eli Thompson
I didn't say russians never lied in their history, but when it comes to this war, they were always precise and factual while western media pushed increasingly idiotic shit. So yes, Russian statements were and always will be more reliable in this conflict

>>Russia has suffered 1,351 military personnel killed HAHAHAHAHA! THEY WISH!

They are smiling form Heaven. Fuck hohols and fuck NATO.
