This sound ominous.

*again.attack. on military base with foreign mercenaries and more dead and injured.no mournings in Sweden?*
There is talk of 15 trucks with Swedish casualties from Poltava.
Russian savagery will not prevail over Free Ukraine.
Signed up for the UAF foreign legion finally ?

The attacks underscore that when the media assured audiences in NATO countries in May 2022 that Russia had run out of missiles, they lied.
The purpose of the lie was to give the impression that Russia would quickly surrender if simply more weapons were given to Zelensky.
The media lied then and it's lying now, because they want the war to fester as it brings in billions of juicy profits for the military industrial complex.

It's poles apart from Russia, which makes them pretty free and decent in my eyes.
Russia went full savage before the invasion so not much difference.

Ukraine vows response with "underground weapons production"?
They will attack Russia with NATO-provided weapons, but they have to push the narrative that these weapons are Ukrainian made.

Sounds like another past war.
Underground missile factories, and the promise of "new weapons" to destroy the enemy," etc...

Zelensky's Ukraine is poles apart from a free and decent, not to mention a constitutionally mandated neutralist, Ukraine.
Poltava strike runs into triple figures. Videos are emerging of severely wounded speaking either Swedish or another Scandinavian language. Oslo's NATO misadventure has turned out to be factual. FM out and denial syndrome. They were warned to mind their own business.

He thought an "invasion of Russia" doesn't have severe repercussions. Wrong, wrong and wrong yet again.

Nobody is constitutionally mandated neutral except Austria, another terrible example to the Russian that they can do what they want to others with impunity.

Eastman,
more than 900 days after that 3-day-limited-operation by that dictator in the Kremlin.
And you want to tell me that's not prevailing? Then, what is it?
Ukraine prevails!
Yrral
Why have Ukraine not had election,this government is illegally representing the people of Ukraine

Who said a 3 day limited operation? Russia?
Oh, no an American general.
Does it make people feel better repeating fake information?
It is comments and claims like this by Ukraine and Ukrainian supporters that make anything Ukraine says as unreliable as the stuff Moscow says.
People go on and on how claims by Moscow can't be trusted, then we get the same junk and propaganda from Ukraine and now no one believes either side!

So a big public funeral for 50 killed, what about the hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of Ukrainian conscripts being killed and that have been killed at the front for which western analysts say have an average of 2 to 7 days after arriving there before being killed or wounded, where are the public events and funerals for them.
A publicity stunt that is sad and disrespectful to all the others that have died and Kyiv is keeping the numbers secret.
The last time Ukraine put out a number of killed was February 2024 claiming 31,000 since the start, does anyone actually believe this?

Those aren't peace terms, those are surrender terms. And only the Russian uses the excuse of "penalties" for wars of aggression.
Anyone who believed Europe will buckle in defending their front porch needs a good, long and hard look in the mirror - any belief to the contrary was in error.
Mr Kipling
It is clearly shown on Google maps. So just why the Ukrainians didn't see this as an obvious target and move their training to somewhere else is a mystery.

Exactly.

Russia is also vulnerable to these same kind of attacks, as the Moscow regime is increasingly realizing. They can't even control their own land, but are still trying to control Ukrainian land...
Better both sides should withdraw all troops and stop this war nonsense.

Kyiv-regime is completely deluded. Peace terms have been offered multiple times. And every time the clowns snapped the olive branch in two. The penalty phase only goes up.

For those who studied geography at school:)
"Polluted water from the Desna will reach Kiev on September 10 - Ukrhydrometcenter.
According to the results of water samples from the Seim and Desna rivers, taken on September 4, organic pollution is recorded.
Recall that the pollution of the Seim River (which flows into the Desna, and the Desna into the Dnieper) and the mass death of fish there, residents of the Sumy region reported more than a week ago.
The water came from the Kursk region. In a strange way, this was connected with Zelensky's "brilliant" operation.
There are several versions. According to one of them, as a result of the operation, there was a failure at sewage treatment plants. According to another, as a result of the same "ingenious scam", something went wrong at local enterprises.
Explosions of bridges and coastal infrastructure could also have an impact.
The problem is that the whole country (Ukraine) drinks "water from Russia".
In any case, there are already two results of the Zel's special operation: Putin is shamed and the ecological catastrophe on the Ukrainian rivers has reached Kiev."

Russia is a terrorist state under the leadership of a dictator.
Why is this so hard to understand?
"again.attack. on military base with foreign mercenaries and more dead and injured"
Eastman, again insider information, been on the ground, seen it?
Man, your propaganda material is so convincing!
Innocent civilians were murdered again! One man's family, his wife and three daughters killed, besides many others. And you are talking about foreign mercenaries?
Ukraine prevails!
