Ukraine frontline: the battle for Bakhmut – BBC News

Published

on



For months the city of Bakhmut has been the epicentre of the war in Ukraine.

Almost all of the city’s 70,000 residents have fled.

Russia is conducting an onslaught on the city in an attempt to capture it but so far its Ukrainian defenders have held firm.

Bakhmut is strategically important and its fall would advance Russia’s hopes of capturing Kramatorsk and Slovyansk, key cities in Ukraine’s Donbas region.

Reeta Chakrabarti presents a BBC News at Ten special report from Yogita Limaye on the frontline in Bakhmut.

    In the words of a US politician

    "It was said that Russia was the second strongest military in the world a few months ago. It now seems that russia is the second strongest military in Ukraine"

    It's an old report from last winter, when the Ukrainians were given false hope by the Western powers instead of negotiating a settlement with the Russians they lead them on to thousands of unnecessary deaths.
    Now it's May moving into summer an it is only hours if it hasn't already happened that the Wagner Group and the regular Russian forces are mopping up the last of the resisters.

    War is hell and it is the Western powers that bear the greatest responsibility for not negotiating a settlement to this conflict that they initiated at the maidan Coup.
    So before you cry too many tears over this tragedy find out who initiated and has perpetuated it.

    The West will never have to accept their blame for this but the world will still know where to place the blame.

    Russia’s Brutish Plan:
    Round up conscripts;
    Properly intimidate them;
    Minimally outfit them;
    Thrust them against Ukrainians
    so as to force them to reveal their positions;
    Bombard the Ukrainians;
    Then advance and repeat the process
    as necessary until at least
    a half million Russian troops are dead.
    Note: In order for this to work, an unlimited supply of both men and artillery shells is needed, hence the importance of security forces on the home front and the call to China for lethal aid.

    Бориска Джонсон (Англия): " Минский переговорный процесс о мире на Донбассе со стороны Запада был "Дипломатической имитацией".Это подтвердили Ангела Меркель (Германия), Франсуа Олланд (Франция), Порошенко (Украина). Аналена Бербок (Германия): "Мы ведём войну против России". ВСЕ руководители ведущих стран мира заявили, что Минские соглашения были с их стороны обманом России и имели целью подготовку армии Украины и политического режима на Украине к войне против России.Значит:
    1) Россия была права, начав Специальную Военную Операцию, где силы Зла и Тьмы в лице НАТО 9 лет уничтожают детей, женщин и стариков на Донбассе. Россия ЗАЩИЩАЕТ южных русов от агрессии Запада на древних землях Святой Руси.
    2) Запад и Украина виноваты в развязывании войны.
    3) Никакие переговоры России и Запада не помогут, потому что Запад изначально лжёт и не выполняет условия договора.

    Russian drone films a group of Ukrainian soldiers, in this group three Ukrainians have their hands tied behind them, are taken to a trench and shot, as it seems they would desert. The firing squad must be ordered by the Pentagon or NATO. Since Zelensky fired, but did not shoot corrupt people caught in Kiev. Perhaps these crooks have business with Zelnsky.

At least 37 dead in huge blast as arms depot hit by Russian drone in Ukraine | BBC News

Published

on



37 people have been killed after a huge explosion at an arms depot in Ukraine which was struck by a Russian drone. The ams storage facility was based near a residential areas on the outskirts of the capital, Kyiv. Hundreds of people have been evacuated from the area and a rescue operation is continuing, with fears that the death toll will rise.

Shells, mines and drones stored at the facility exploded in a massive blast that destroyed nearby homes nearby, including a care home for the elderly and disabled.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky strongly criticised the location of the depot near people’s homes, saying an investigation had been launched into “terrible negligence on the part of those who stored explosive right next to people”.

Russia’s Ministry of Defence said that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot”.

Hawk Fire wildfire in Nevada expected to rage for another two days, say officials | BBC News

Published

on



US fire crews have reported progress in their efforts to tackle a large wildfire menacing the city of Reno, Nevada – saying the blaze is about a quarter contained.

The Hawk Fire, which began on Saturday, had spread over 15,000 acres by Monday, firefighters said.

Evacuation orders remain in place for 23,000 people, though other residents have now been allowed to return to their homes. Tens of thousands of other residents have been told to be ready to leave at any moment.

Officials are concerned that gusts of wind could drive the flames towards more homes. Unfavourable weather conditions are forecast for the next two days, meaning the fire could continue to burn during that timeframe.

Could China’s Robot Olympics change the world? | BBC Newscast

Published

on



Today, we discuss China’s £14.7bn investment into AI and robotics in the hopes of overtaking the US as the world leader in innovation.

China has two million robots already working in factories, and is investing heavily in the hopes that one day they could bridge gaps in an already sluggish economy. What can these robots do? And what does the future look like for workers? Our China correspondent Laura Bicker has been to some of these factories, and is on the line to debrief.

Plus, the government has announced more details about their housing plans, including where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years. 60% of the new homes would be for social rent, despite Andy Burnham telling The Social Housing Podcast in May he “would actually devote all of it to social housing.”.

Is Andy Burnham delivery what he promised? Adam is joined by Alex and housing correspondent Tarah Welsh.
