Ukraine war: Wagner says Bakhmut transfer to Russian army under way – BBC News

Published

on



The head of Russia’s Wagner mercenary group has announced that its forces have started withdrawing from the Ukrainian city of Bakhmut.

Yevgeny Prigozhin has vowed to transfer control of the city to the Russian army by 1 June, but Kyiv says it still controls pockets of the city.

He said his forces were ready to return if the Russian regular army proved unable to manage the situation.

The battle for the city has been the longest and bloodiest of the war.

There were about 70,000 people living in Bakhmut before the invasion, but only a few thousand remain in the devastated city, once best known for its salt and gypsum mines and huge winery.

    Prigozin sensed that his men has no capability to capture BAKHMUT anymore that is why he handle it over to regular Russian army.

    As a scapegoat for a blame game later. A wise old man.. 😅😅

    So while fighting, the city is incredibly important to Ukraine. But once the city is lost, then it's of no strategic value?

    'll tell you the truth. It hurts but it's true. ,You don't blame Russia for attacking you. But you should blame your leaders for bringing you to this point, like you can't stop the rain. But you can choose not to get wet in the rain. you didn't do that So You called your siblings to help cover the sky with your hands. You will eventually get wet in the rain.

    We condemn any violence against any human being, including the hegemony and arrogance of Western countries!

    Stunts by the comedian Zelensky, trying hard to protect his ego and impress his Western masters, including the EU leaders from every vassal state of the USA, at the expense of Ukrainian lives.

    The entire WESTERN media are trying very very hard to TWIST and fool the fools by making things sound like the 30 nations of the West are winning vs. Russia…

    ICC = International Comedian Court

    The US/UK government does not hold or value any principles or virtues whatsoever other than greed.

    They lifted their sanctions against the NAZI faction in Ukraine because they knew they could use them against their proxy war with Russia.

    The USA is the creator of Alkhaida and the Taliban, and the American government also spreads and sponsors terror in countries that they do not like (e.g., Iraq, Libya, Syria, etc.), killing millions of innocent civilians in the process.

    Such an evil US regime!

    Ukraine is trying to save face. Even tho we send weapons they cannot win. If they say Russia can’t mobilize any troops than they have no idea what Russia is and it’s history. Ukraine can no longer mobilize troops. It has no population left. They need to sue for peace now

  29. @tateflorell2751

    January 2, 2024 at 4:08 pm

    We CANNOT trust what Ukraine says. It’s like what Fortune 500 companies say to boost their stock. They know if they just lost a meat grinder of a battle that the west would hesitate and rethink their support. They rely on OUR money. I think Ukraine should be independent but after doing research on the regions Russia wants and the NATO aggression, I see both sides of the government. Having a Ukrainian government official on is insane. They are obviously dying in droves and don’t have the man power to continue for to long until the US and the EU declares was and sends people in. It’s all dumb.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
