[Vesti] Fighting continues in Severodonetsk, Russia is retreating-1200x800
Fierce fighting continues in Severodonetsk , the Ukrainian army managed to force the Russian military to retreat. This was announced on Thursday evening, June 9, by the head of the Lugansk regional military administration, Sergei Gaidai. He clarified that the losses of the Russians significantly exceed ours.

"The Buryats retreated because they are much weaker than our defenders ," Gaidai noted . In addition, there are fights in the settlements of the Gornaya and Popasnyanskaya communities.

The head of the region warned that the Russians were "powerfully bombarding Lisichansk" with large-caliber guns "penetrating concrete." It is extremely dangerous for citizens to be even in shelters, Gaidai noted. But, according to him, there are no fights both inside and around the city.

Because of the heat, the water level in the Seversky Donets river fell. " This means that the rashists will again try to establish crossings. We follow, in which case we will act ahead of the curve, " Gaidai added.

#8  How bout some poetasting with neon? Titanium? This gas and that metal come from ... Russia. Oops.

Neon: Russia has limited exports of noble gases such as neon, a key ingredient for making semiconductor chips, until the end of 2022 to strengthen its market position.

Oops.

Titanium: the main hurdle for the M777 Howitzer is hiw to apply titanium alloys to the construction of the new weapon, in place of traditional steel, as titanium's impressive strength is also equaled by an impressive price tag,

Also, guess who dominates world titanium production.

Fook.

No wonder Ukraine isn't getting more than a pocketful.

#7   Tell it to Avril Haines, Pruitt

Eh? Are you perhaps in the wrong thread, Mr. Budd? Our Mr. Pruitt doesn’t write poetry — we leave that, mostly, to Zenobia Floger, who has a charming way with a trilingual rhyme.

#2  Ukrainian and Western intelligence report leaked to Britain's Independent newspaper says Ukrainian fighters are vastly outnumbered, completely outgunned, suffering huge casualties and are now deserting en masse.

This is the end, my friend...
