Source: President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his evening address on 8 March

Quote: "Work continued throughout the day in the town of Dobropillia, Donetsk Oblast, following the Russian attack. It was one of the most brutal strikes, a combined attack. It was purposefully designed to cause maximum damage. Missiles and a Shahed [drone] were fired at the city centre. Nine residential buildings were damaged, as well as a shopping centre and shops.

Unfortunately, 11 people were killed. My condolences go out to their families and friends. An employee of Ukraine's State Emergency Service was among those killed. The second strike occurred after the rescue workers had begun their work.

Fifty people were injured. Everyone has been provided with the necessary assistance. Among the injured are seven children; the youngest is a 10-year-old girl."

Details: Zelenskyy emphasised that the Russians "are not thinking about how to end the war, but how to manage to destroy and capture more while the world allows them to wage this war".

He thanked the diplomats and public figures of allied countries who "condemned these Russian strikes and who call a spade a spade".

Crushing Defeat of a Ukrainian Convoy Attempting to Flee Sudzha – Details

?? On the night of March 9, some Ukrainian units attempted to flee the city in vehicles but ran into a destroyed bridge.
?? That’s when the Russian army unleashed precise fire on the convoy.
?? First, our forces hit the last vehicle, blocking the entire column.
?? One by one, the enemy vehicles exploded and burned under heavy fire, leaving the convoy completely destroyed."

Our source in the General Staff reports that Ukrainian forces in the Kursk region are being destroyed as some of their best units attempt to retreat without orders—only to end up in kill zones. Once again, Syrsky failed to issue a timely withdrawal order despite requests from field commanders and the worsening tactical encirclement. Supply routes have been under fire for a week, and bridges have been destroyed. Today alone, nearly a thousand troops have been lost, along with a hundred pieces of equipment. The battle in Kursk is turning into a meat grinder."

So few lessons learned from history. Seriously, why hasn’t Ukraine been going all out for an end to this? They should have been aligning with Trump to get the best peace deal possible.

History shows Russia will just re-group and go back in for the rest in 5 years. Unless Ukraine can be guaranteed it'll be a lasting peace, why go for peace at all? Just kicking the can down the road.
