A little tidbit about the war is that while the US media keeps stroking their cocks bragging about the russian sanctions, the reality is they are exporting more oil than before they invaded. There are about 7 bbls in a ton of oil - so just today they exported over 7 million bbls of oil. :laugh

Putin’s Chechen warlord vows Mariupol will fall ‘by lunchtime’

Putin’s Chechen warlord announced that Mariupol would fall into his sights at ‘lunchtime’ with the last of Ukrainian marines – Zelensky reiterated his vow to put invading Russian troops on trial, saying ” There can be no peace without justice”

  • Ramzan Kadyrov says Azov Starr steel plant will be occupied by Russian troops
  • He said factories where fighters and civilians were hiding would collapse before ‘lunchtime’
  • After weeks of bombing, Mariupol’s fighters are fighting their final battle
  • Ukrainian negotiators are trying to reach a deal, but peace talks stall
  • Russia now controls about 80% of the region’s land, says Luhansk governor
  • Putin’s army launches full-scale offensive on Ukraine’s Donbas region
  • Zelensky also said Ukraine and the EU would use “modern technology” to find details of all Russian soldiers believed to have committed war crimes

Ramzan Kadyrov, a Chechen warlord and Putin ally, said the besieged port of Mariupol would “fall at lunchtime” as Russian forces continue to tighten the noose around the city’s last Ukrainian stronghold.

Mariupol will be the largest Russian-occupied city since it invaded Ukraine eight weeks ago, and the port is seen as a key strategic location for Russia’s assault on eastern Ukraine.

But Putin’s army was forced to raze the once bustling metropolis of 400,000 people, facing stiff resistance from Ukraine’s armed forces and territorial defense forces stationed there.

All Ukrainian fortifications in Mariupol are now housed in the Azovstal steelworks, with an estimated 1,000 civilians hiding as Russian troops approach.

“Before or after lunch, Yazovstall will be completely under the control of the Russian Federation army,” said Kadyrov, the leader of the Russian Republic of Chechnya, of the steel plant.

Ukraine’s Defense Ministry was not immediately reached for comment.

Dozens of civilians managed to leave the bombed-out city centre in a convoy of minibuses yesterday, but Ukraine again blamed Russia for blocking previously agreed humanitarian corridors, meaning fewer civilians than expected were able to flee.

 

“Before or after lunch, Yazovstall will be completely under the control of the army of the Russian Federation,” Ramzan Kadyrov, leader of the Russian Republic of Chechnya, said of the Mariupol steel plant. Down.”

Ukrainian Marine Corps Commander Serhiy Volny said Wednesday that the fighters at the steel plant may not be able to hold out much longer, adding to fears that an estimated 1,000 civilians trapped at the steel plant will soon be attacked by intruders. At the mercy.

“This is our call to the world. This may be our last. We may only have days or hours left,” he said in a shocking video message

“The enemy units are dozens of times larger than us, and they dominate the air, artillery, ground forces, equipment and tanks.”

Mariupol is 100% free of nazis. Only Azovstal still holding on. Approximately 2000 Ukrainian troops still in their. At the briefing ministry of defense said that they will not try to attempt to storm the plant, no point to crawl in the ratholes and risk solders life. Total blockade.

Attention All Gypsies:

Putin's plot to invade Moldova as 'second stage' of brutal invasion laid bare

VLADIMIR PUTIN'S plot to invade Moldova has been revealed as Russia outlines the "second stage" of its brutal war in Ukraine.

The Russian army is planning to establish full control over the Donbas and Southern Ukraine and to ensure a land corridor to the Crimea, according to Rustam Minnekaev, deputy commander of the Central Military District. He also warned taking back control over Southern Ukraine will provide Russian troops with another outlet to Moldova's pro-Russian breakaway region of Transdniestria, which borders Ukraine. Kyiv fears this could be used as a launching pad for new attacks.

Biden is bragging that we are sending Ukraine about 50 howitzers, which in order to be effective will have to be near russian forces - who would at the same time have the ability to target the howitzers.  So in a week or so(after arriving in eastern ukraine) the russians will prob destroy most of them - yup, that's the game changer.  :laugh

Some of those field guns will shoot depleted uranium shells, incendiary shells, fragment shells, etc...

Another stupid escalation from the doddering old fool.

Hard to say what's really going on, just because they said they wont storm it doesn't mean they wont attack it(from a distance), possible too there was an opportunity, possible some people surrendered and gave away enough info to make storming it seem reasonable,  possible the whole thing was a ruse to get them to relax and perhaps give away locations, etc.

The sooner that situation is finished the better.
