KYIV: Ukraine said today it had encircled thousands of Russian troops around the eastern town of Lyman, in a battlefield rebuttal to the Kremlin a day after it proclaimed the region to be part of Russia.
The capture of Lyman would be a major setback for Russia after President Vladimir Putin proclaimed the annexation of the Donetsk region, along with three others, at a ceremony in Moscow on Friday condemned by Kyiv and the West as a farce.

Russia has 5,000 to 5,500 troops at Lyman but their numbers may be lower because of casualties and troops trying unsuccessfully to break out, a spokesperson for Ukraine’s eastern forces said.
“The Russian grouping in the area of Lyman is surrounded,” the spokeperson, Serhii Cherevatyi, said on television.



The Russian defence ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Logistics hub
Russia has used Lyman as a logistics and transport hub for its operations in the north of the Donetsk region. Its fall would be Ukraine’s biggest battlefield gain since a lightning counter-offensive in the northeastern Kharkiv region last month.
The Ukrainian military spokersperson said the capture of Lyman would allow Kyiv to advance into the Luhansk region, whose full capture Moscow announced at the beginning of July after weeks of slow, grinding advances.

“Lyman is important because it is the next step towards the liberation of the Ukrainian Donbas. It is an opportunity to go further to Kreminna and Severodonetsk, and it is psychologically very important,” he said.
The operation around Lyman is still under way and Russian troops are mounting unsuccessful attempts to break out of the encirclement, Cherevatyi said.
“Some are surrendering, they have a lot of killed and wounded, but the operation is not yet over,” he said.
Ukraine’s exiled governor of Luhansk said Russian forces had sought safe passage out of the encirclement, but Ukraine rejected the request.
The Ukrainian general staff told Reuters it had no such information.
Putin proclaimed the Donbas regions of Donetsk and Luhansk and the southern regions of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia to be Russian land in Friday’s ceremony – a swathe of territory equal to about 18% of Ukraine’s total surface land area.
Ukraine and its Western allies branded Russia’s move as illegal. Kyiv vowed to continue liberating its land of Russian forces and said it would not hold peace talks with Moscow while Putin remained as president.

don't know if story is true

but one thing is sure, russkies have been caught with their pants down

as i've said in another thread, https://www.sammyboy.com/threads/wh...-intellectually-praiseworthy-activity.328860/

what sort of a nation of donkeys promotes hacking cracking or such?



what's certain is russkies are scared to death to fight yanks and putler said it out loud.

had that moron jewish c*cksucker not sided with jews and yanks and kuffar incl helping to topple Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and imposing sanctions on Iran North Korea and the likes at the UN, would he have been better off?

btw why did International olympic Committee ban russkie athletes but never took any action against yanks poms ozzie sheepshaggers poles ukraininans etc etc incl stinkypooreans japs gooks etc after illegal illegitimate immoral wanton invasion massacre of iraq? after invasion of afghanistan? blockading and invading yemen? blockading palestine? invading libya? etc etc ?

goes to show that tiongs and russkies not only don't trust each other but are nothing more than balls-carrier of yankees. like i said, if you want to punish yankees, you must disband United Nations, no ifs, no buts.

so long as tiongs and russkies stick to United Nations as the decisive forum for all international decision making or resolving disputes, you know they'll remain yankee loyal poodles no matter how many times yankees kick them. truth hurts? is truth bitter? maybe, it's still truth.



this moron can't even dare to openly recognize taliban regime in afghanistan and withdraw recognition of zionist terrorist regime and yankee regime.

exporting nuclear weapons and ICBMs? I ordered him to do so a lot earlier, if that moron putler can't even do this, he deserves what he gets. good job with your own goal putler.

I didn't permit you to delay, to dilly-dally to try and be clever, to try to contemplate and think, and hope you can out wit others or believing you are smarter or more intelligent than others. sorry that won't work. i asked you to do exactly what i said.

you FAILED to do so.

as a result, every single punishment that your country receives, every humiliation you receive is well deserved.




enjoy the show from a distance, let the kuffar kill each other and sink into oblivion.

Ukrainian soldiers are combat proven, an asset to NATO. SG could import a few of their Generals (Real Generals), give them citizenship, so they can head our military.

Those stupid Ukrainians are misled and used by Biden. They will suffer the brunt when Putin launches nuclear attack.
