There's a lesson that Russia is learning here - and quickly. You try to f*** with the West (by proxy) and
we'll deploy technology, assistance and arms so advanced and so superior, together with an
army motivated for the proper reasons, that it will show you up for the
backward, crude, neanderthal, perverted, disgusting way you operate for what it is.

Russian defences collapsing all along the Kharkiv front.

This opens the door to Ukraine sweeping west of Donetsk city to Melitopol.

Liberating Melitopol would be huge and in turn opens the way to Mariupol, the south coast and cutting off Kherson and Crimea once the illegal bridge is blown.

Surrender, Vlad. Your invasion is done.

Rather then being welcomed into Ukraine in victory, the egregious mistake Putin has made, is slowly unfolding in front of him.

An ignominious withdrawal is looming.
Sanctions are obliterating his economy, losing him trading partners.
His country has become a world pariah.
His actions have led to the exact opposite of his objective. More Nato, closer to Russia, not less Nato.
Russia's inadequacies on the battlefield have been showcased to the world.
Russia is significantly poorer, with less influence, than when it invaded Ukraine.

Days before the invasion, Putin went on TV to declare that Ukraine should not exist. The world has given him their answer.

Now hearing reports that Lyman has been liberated and that Kherson is totally surrounded.
And Donetsk Airport now in Ukrainian hands.

Lovely video circulating showing the UA liberating a Ukrainian household. Amazing scenes.

(Sorry it’s on Twitter and way above my tech knowledge to post here!)

Reports that Russia has surrendered Izium

Plenty of videos showing Ukrainian SF and airborne troops around the city!

It seems it’s fallen, huge blow to Putin.

If you're on the website, just highlight then copy and paste (right click "copy", right click "paste") the URL (link). Quickest way on a computer is to click in the search bar, press Ctrl A to highlight the link, Ctrl C to copy it, Ctrl V to paste it. On your phone click the search bar, click the little rectangle symbol to copy, then paste on here.

If you're using the Twitter app, click the share button (the open ended triangle with dots on the points), then click copy link then paste it here.

If you want to be fancy and embed the tweet, do the above then copy just the number from the link and paste the number thus:

[tweet!!!!!] number [/tweet]

(Delete the exclamation marks from the above- I had to add them so it would show the structure. Also, without the word number, of course)

Hope that helps :)
