And im sure Russia is telling us everything we are doing to support ukraine is bad and provocative. Its not like they want us helping Ukraine. Its not like they are ok with us giving ukraine anti tank weapons. Its not like they are ok with us sanctioning them.


Of course they're not ok with it. The point of backchannels is to try to de-escalate as much as possible. Like trying to prevent this from being a NATO vs Russia war.

Ukrainians captured a Russian position, based on the “O” markings it’s probably Chernihiv or somewhere north of Kyiv.

Turns out it was wast of Kyiv.



Russian forces were in Brovary approximately 20 kms from Kyiv. Ukraine appears to have pushed them back to Malyi Krupil' which is approximatley 90 kms from Kyiv. IF true that is a hell of an accomplishment for Ukraine.


Bump because nobody seems to be talking about Ukraine taking Russian positions east of Kyiv.

The fighting East of Kyiv, the Hostomel battle, and Mariupol are so far the stories of this war.

Honestly it’s a moderately significant development. It falls in line with reports of a Ukrainian counteroffensive which is encouraging but ground around Kyiv has changed hands so many times the past few weeks I’d like to see something more permanent before I throw a victory party.

Weird. I’ve been saying that the whole time. Why? Because it’s obvious and actually lines up with the facts on the ground

This was posted earlier but do you really believe he is sacrificing thousands, possibly tens of thousands of his soldering life’s to go easy on the Ukrainians?

To be fair, you've said so many things.

Russian forces continue to make slow but steady progress in Mariupol, entering the city center on March 24, but conducted few offensive operations elsewhere in the country. Ukrainian counterattacks northwest of Kyiv in the past several days continue to relieve pressure on the city, and Russian forces continued to dig in. Ukrainian forces repelled limited Russian attacks northeast of the city and around Kharkiv.

Key Takeaways

Russian forces entered central Mariupol on March 24 and continued to take ground across the city. Local Ukrainian authorities left the city in order to better coordinate regional operations amid the deteriorating situation in Mariupol itself.
Ukrainian forces conducted a successful attack on Russian ships docked at the occupied port of Berdyansk, likely sinking a landing ship and damaging or sinking another. Ukraine’s demonstrated ability to inflict serious damage on Berdyansk may disrupt Russian forces from renewing attempts to reinforce operations in Mariupol and around Kherson by sea.
Ukrainian forces did not retake any territory in continuing counterattacks northwest of Kyiv but forced Russian troops onto the defensive.
Ukrainian forces repelled renewed Russian attempts to advance toward Brovary from the northeast and complete the encirclement of Chernihiv.
Russian forces continue to shell Kharkiv and struck a humanitarian aid delivery point, killing six and wounding 15.
Russian forces secured several minor advances in Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts in the last 24 hours.

Is it also significant because Belarus seems to be faltering?

Just based on the map.. the Ukrainians defeat the force northwest of Kiev, and Belarus decides not to send their troops, then Kiev can focus on the northeast/east side of defense.

Just a question from an armchair tactician.

So that moron Amy Schumer got her way:

If the "theater" theorist are right, this whole conflict is just elevate Zelensky to rock star status and thus elected/selected as leader of a new world order, if that comes through pass anytime soon.

He better be careful he's a comedian and she's a joke thief. It could just be a big ploy for her to get some new material.

ETA: Though, I don't know how many "I'm a great big whore...." jokes Zelensky has in his repertoire.
