"Pokrovsk has essentially fallen... there are some mopping-up operations going on, but the game of Pokrovsk is already over, and Kupyansk is almost there." Mark Sleboda explains that while the West has presented the war as a "stalemate" for months, Russia has been "attriting away the manpower and defenses,... show more

"The butcher’s bill for the war of attrition is coming due. And we’re seeing it with this crumbling all along [the frontlines]. It’s not just Pokrovsk and Kupyansk.

Zelenskyy: In Pokrovsk, the enemy has not had any success in recent days. 26-30% of all combat operations on the front take place in Pokrovsk. 50% of all Russian glide bombs are dropped at Pokrovsk. So you understand how difficult it is for us. 1/

🇷🇺⚡Clean up operations in Myrnograd. The Russian army now controls more than 90% of Pokrovsk. The Ukrainian military has now been encircled in the Pokrovsk-Myrnograd sector, all "life line" roads are under control of our artillery and drone units. Reports of mass surrendering by personnel of the AFU. Despite the PR stunts by Budanov and Zelensky, reality for thousands of Ukrainians is bad.

"They can't stop or slow down Russian forces ANYWHERE" Mark Sleboda noted that while Pokrovsk is "in Russia's hands," and Kupyansk isn't far behind, "far more important than just the territory is the fact that the Kiev regime is NOT capable of holding this territory anymore…"

Russian President Putin: "Yes, Western sponsors are supplying a large number of drones of various types, including long-range ones. Some of them, unfortunately for us, are being breaking through. But Russia has a system of air defense. Yes, we must strengthen it, and we will do so, but Ukraine does not have such a system at all. There are just separate elements, but there is no system. There are Patriots, other systems that are being supplied, which are also catastrophically lacking, but there is no system as such. There are no strike systems like those that the Russian Federation has. I mean hypersonic missiles, cruise missiles, and naval, air, and land-based missiles. And there is something else that is the most important. There is patriotism and the will of the Russian people, which is the main condition. We are prepared for the achievement of all the goals and objectives of the special military operation."

Despite Russia's propaganda barrage to the contrary, Russians are unable to break through Ukrainian defenses in the north of Pokrovsk. Russian propagandists have announced the capture of all of Pokrovsk for the FOURTH TIME in the last one and a half months, trying to pass off their wishful thinking as reality. The enemy has overlooked the main thing: this information provocation only works on those for whom television is their main source of information. And Pokrovsk is just an unfamiliar name on the map for them. We emphasize: The defense forces control the north of Pokrovsk. Here, the enemy has lost momentum and the laws of enemy propaganda do not apply. Active offensive actions continue to restore our control over every meter of the city. Soldiers of the 425th Separate Assault Regiment "Rock", in cooperation with other units in the defense zone of the 7th Corps of the Special Operations Forces, are conducting assault raids south of the railway. Our soldiers are gradually eliminating the enemy, burning their positions and restoring Ukrainian control. In the video - greetings from Ukrainian soldiers from Pokrovsk. They are shattering the illusion of "success" of Russian propagandists, who for now are able to move in a limited route south of the railway in a fog of disinformation.

PM Orbán: Ukraine's EU membership would mean admitting a country that is at war with Russia. And if one member of the EU is at war, the others are inevitably are drawn into that war. Ukraine's EU membership would mean immediate war with Russia, and even if there is peace at the moment, it carries with it the constant risk of war. We are talking about a 1,200-kilometer-long front line, and even if there is peace, there is no way of knowing how long it will last. Therefore, Ukraine's accession poses a direct threat of war to all European countries. Of course, those on the Atlantic coast can calmly ask for a cup of coffee. This does not bother them all that much, because they are far away. But we are here. We have already been on Ukrainian territory that belonged to Russia during the war, and we know the consequences. We know that if the Russians launch an attack from there, we will be the first to suffer, and we want to prevent that at all costs.

Every African rebel gang looks more combat-ready than russian troops at Pokrovsk. Of course, the video doesn't show the entire russian army, but a significant portion of it fighting at Pokrovsk. Consider that russia hasn't managed to conquer a city with a former population of 60,000 in 21 months!!! Then you wonder why NATO and/or the EU are so afraid of russia. Okay, russia has nuclear weapons, but so do we. And if we truly believe that putin will use nuclear weapons, the West has already lost - putin could continue to blackmail us. When you see these russian bandit soldiers at Pokrovsk, you wonder why NATO doesn't overrun the russian army in Ukraine in one or two weeks.

🇺🇦🇷🇺 DELUSIONAL! Advisor to Yermak, Mikhail Podolyak: “Obviously, there is no encirclement in Pokrovsk. What is happening is a so-called counter-operation, meaning our special forces are clearing the area. Russians are sneaking through; it's essentially a gray zone. The vast majority of them are destroyed, but some manage to slip through, and they concentrate in certain places, like Pokrovsk. Our special forces are clearing them out there, destroying them en masse, and this work has been going on for several weeks now, probably.”

I'd like to point something out regarding the recent DRG operations, and specifically the attached video showing a Russian sabotage operation deep inside Pokrovsk City. This is nothing new - at least in the sense that these deep infiltrations behind the frontlines have been occurring for several months now. As I and many others have been pointing out for a long time, Ukrainian manpower problems will eventually reach a point where they are unable to contain Russian infantry. Right now, we are at the point where they cannot contain all DRGs and are failing to kill them within the required period of 12-24 hours. DRGs have been constantly slipping behind Ukrainian lines simply because there are no soldiers to stop them in some areas. They utilise cover from treelines, windbreaks and the more lightly damaged settlements to evade being spotted by drones, and then carry out sabotage operations on Ukrainian positions multiple kilometres behind the frontline on unaware soldiers and commanders in temporary deployment points. This is what I mean when I point out how relying on one thing to hold parts of the frontline (drones) is not a good tactic nor a good sign as it significantly simplifies Russian assault operation - they don't have to account for as many factors. Yes, the number of DRG operations in the Pokrovsk direction has significantly increased, but the main reason we are seeing this is because of how much attention Pokrovsk is getting right now. This is a common occurrence in weak sections of the frontline, and even sometimes much more stable sectors such as the frontline northwest of Bakhmut.

This was at La Jolla Cove in La Jolla California. These people are swimming at the Cove but there is a good amount of Sea lions there. 😳 You can see one of the Sea lions almost run over a kid as it is trying to get back in the water and you can hear a voice over the loudspeaker telling people to please keep their distance from all the Sea lions. People argued about this saying that little beach was always meant for kids to swim at and has been that way for 40 years. But many others said that it has obviously changed and now we have Sea lions there and they should leave those Sea lions in peace and go find another beach. To me, the ocean, that is their home. There are plenty of other beaches to use. The people should be the ones to move, not the Sea lions. 💯 What is your opinion? Should they just keep it the way it is, let people around the Sea lions or should they close this small beach cove to the public in order to allow the Sea lions to be in peace?

1/ A Russian tank crewman in the Pokrovsk region says that things are not going well there. Only 2 of his unit's 16 tanks are operational, there aren't enough men to operate the rest, and the tankers at the front line are being expended as assault troops instead. ⬇️

Trump: "There are windmills all over Europe. There are windmills all over the place. And they are losers. One thing I've noticed is that the more windmills a country has, the more money that country loses, and the worse that country is doing. China make almost all of the windmills, and yet I haven't been able to find any wind farms in China. Did you ever think of that? They put up a couple big wind farms but they don't use them, they just put them up to show people what they could look like. They don't spin, they don't do anything."

Ukraine supporters will try to downplay this loss, but here are the facts: In just the past month, Ukraine has LOST five fortress cities in the Donbass and Kharkov — Kupyansk, Pokrovsk, Mirnograd, Volchansk, and now Seversk. In the case of Seversk, Russian troops were able to move from the city’s outskirts to full control over it in just over a week. Now Ukraine has only two major fortress cities left in the Donbass — Slavyansk and Kramatorsk. The loss of Seversk complicates the logistics between them. What Russia will now do is use its superior air power, artillery fire, and drones to strangle Ukrainian logistics around these two fortresses and exhaust Ukraine’s already depleted manpower. All the while putting pressure Ukraine’s power grid. And all the while Ukraine struggles to get new financing from the US and Ukraine. Draw your own conclusions, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that Ukraine will lose the rest of the Donbass sooner rather than later.

❗️The most difficult thing is now in the Pokrovsk direction, — Zelensky The greatest intensity of fighting and a large enemy grouping are there. The occupiers are trying to gain a foothold by all means. The situation in Kupyansk remains difficult, but the Ukrainian Defense Forces have increased control over the situation. The defense continues.

Winter has started in Russia. Snow has buried the Chelyabinsk and Sverdlovsk regions, as well as Bashkortostan. Traffic jams have formed on the roads, and there are queues at car service centers for tire changes and petrol - of which there isn’t much at all. It is going to be a historically miserable winter for Mordor.
