They didn't go anywhere near kyiv. It was outside intelligence that assumed russia was going for kyiv. From that first invasion, putin has been consistent in saying he has no interest in taking over ukraine and they were focused within a certain range of the Russian border. It was likely all posturing to force ukraine to pull back fromt he border areas a bit.

There was heavy fighting at Hostomel Airport...verified fighting...like you can watch the Russian videos.

Hostomel Airport is like 15 miles from the center of Kyiv.

Based on recent Ukrainian successes, if the talks don't happen quickly they might very well surrender.

Time for Ukraine to go for the jugular.

One thing that surprises me is the amount of whistling past the graveyard I see on here. Russia isn’t going to give up annexed oblasts, let alone Crimea.

Agreed.

They arent giving them up. Ukraine has shown no offensive capabilities that can take them back. Now is the time for a resolution. Ukraine loses some territory but still gets to be a sovereign nation...Russia can stop the bleeding on its population and industry but they don't get to run Ukraineas a puppet like Belarus.

This is an obvious stalemate unless Russia uses nukes, which would be the end of almost all of us.

Anyone concerned with the bio labs that we know were in Ukraine?


Not at the moment. I have other stuff to worry about.

A lot of people don't seem to understand that Putin is surrounded by hawks who are advocating a limited nuclear strike. They don't think the US will respond in kind just to save eastern Europe and they call the leaders of the European nuclear powers "mice". So if Putin exits the picture, he might be replaced by somebody much worse. Listen to the Russian a-hole in this video...

Unless there was something recent, putin never said such a thing. He said from beginning he has no interest going deep into ukraine.

Vladimir Putin is facing an unprecedented internal political crisis after being forced to publicly admit that Ukrainian long-range drone strikes have caused widespread domestic fuel shortages, infuriating hardline Russian nationalists who are now demanding full military mobilization and tactical nuclear deployment.

Russia - relatively speaking - was on the up and up. And he squandered all of it for nothing.

I wouldn't go that far. But it was a tactical blunder. The unfortunate thing is no one wins. Russia loses. Ukraine loses. The world loses. No positive came out of this.

In the war thread long ago were X post or reports of how much the Russian people supposed Putin and the war, significant support.

Any reports or posts on how the Russian people support the war now? After viewing the graphic of loss of oil refining capacity, I'd be interested in the support now. Also wondering if troop replacement is now or maybe coming from the larger cities or urban areas?

Anyone? Bueller?

The Russians never supported the war. That's why they started arresting the people protesting it and millions left the country if they could. It's a failed state that has natural resources and nuclear weapons. They've used their armed forces as cannon fodder. Everyone has lost. This was all stupid.
