This latest destruction of Putin's navy demonstrates that those who believe there's a stalemate in the Ukraine war are wrong!

They haven't noticed that over the past 4 months 20% of Russia's Black Sea Fleet has been destroyed.

Russia's dominance in the Black Sea is now… https://t.co/F6zRmA9Kwx

The character of war in 2024 will differ significantly from that of 2023. "We have identified [key] problems and identified about 90% solutions to those problems", says Gen Zaluzhny.

Gen Zaluzhny believes that Western partners will sustain their support for Ukraine so that the newly-mobilized servicemen will have sufficient weapons: "I am certain that Western partners will stay by our side".

Gen Zaluzhny compares the already-devastated #Marinka to Bakhmut, and explains the withdrawal of Ukrainian troops to its town limits: "The lives of our servicemen are more important to us".

Today's attack on the Novocherkassk was too significant for Russian state TV to ignore entirely

Germany says it will stand with Ukraine for as long as it takes while Biden says the U.S. will support Ukraine for as long as we can. A stunning reversal.

A Russian victory in Ukraine would present the West with a reconstituted and emboldened Russia that is more determined to undermine the US. There is no going back to the pre-2022 status quo.

The distance from Russian positions in Maryinka in the summer of 2022 and the town’s western boundary, where the frontline now runs, is about one mile. The only thing similar to Berlin is the level of destruction. https://t.co/b61lSLscCO
