July 13 was a terrible day on the battlefront where Russia is invading Ukraine. The Russians made 13 attacks. A Ukrainian soldier was killed by enemy shelling and 6 more were wounded in action. The Russians shelled civilian infrastructure in Taramchuk. They flew Orlan-10 UAVs.
Ukrainian defenders opened fire in response to shelling by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
Early morning on July 14 the foreign invaders have been shelling defences near Luhanske in the Svitlodarsk Bulge. A Ukrainian soldier has been wounded in action.
Russian Federation forces in the east of Ukraine fired 152mm & 122mm artillery, 120mm & 82mm mortars, grenade launchers, large-calibre machine guns and small arms.
Attacking Prychepylivka on the Siverskyi Donets River, the Russians used 152mm self-propelled artillery. This is the first time in a while Putin's army invading Ukraine has used such big guns. #RussiaInvadedUkraine

Russia supports the insurrectionists against American democracy because Russians played a big part in instigating the January 6th attack (through their asset Trump) and supplied the organized "titushky" mob tactics that were used (the same as they used against Ukraine in 2014).
The Russians never support things out of principle. For them, speech is always directed action: Chekist active measures. Russia supports the US insurrection because it was one of its backers. Russia supports Trump and the MAGA cult because it helped create these phenomena.
Russian forces invading Ukraine attacked near Katerynivka, Luhansk region today using a rocket-assisted flamethrower with a thermobaric warhead. The fuel-air explosion from this weapon has a blast volume of 120 cubic metres. This is a stunning escalation by #PutinAtWar
Russian occupation forces fired flamethrowers at the village of Katerynivka

The village of Katerynivka lost its protection when Zelenskyy surrendered the Zolote "disengagement area" to Putin in October 2019. This unforced capitulation by the Ukrainian president left defenders vulnerable to Russian attacks in the ongoing Battle of the Bakhmut Road.
CNN shows part of the south of Ukraine as if it is a part of Russia. @CNN is supporting Russia's invasion. This map is on a CNN web page about the COVID–19 pandemic. edition.cnn.com/interactive/20…
What makes this especially offensive is that @CNN advances Russian war propaganda with this map while at the same time it imposes a news blackout on Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
CNN gave saturation coverage to Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. CNN ignores Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Putin puppet Trump occupying the White House, elite capture of the GOP, both impeachments, and the insurrection at the Capitol were all consequences of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Despite this, the press has maintained a news blackout on Russia’s war in Donbas for seven years.
Trump has been a Russian asset since the 1980s. Russia launched the Trump-for-President active measure and in 2015 reassigned "grey cardinal" Paul Manafort from Yanukovych and Ukraine to the American theatre of operations.
The Republican Party was the most corruptible of American political parties and Russian active measures were used to make the GOP an American version of Ukraine's Party of Regions – the party of Yanukovych. Russia completed elite capture of the GOP by the time of the RNC in 2016.
Secretary of State Anthony Blinken did a good job in Kyiv showing support to the Ukrainian people who are under attack from Russia. He distanced the U.S. from the corruption of the Zelenskyy administration by meeting with former President Poroshenko and Metropolitan Epiphanius.
The U.S. has a real problem of how to engage with the Ukrainian government as long as the TV clown President, Zelenskyy, is guided by Russian agent Andriy Yermak. The only solution is a multi-tier, in-depth approach – for example, direct contact with the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Blinken sent very clear signals of the Biden administration approach to Ukraine. The U.S. will strongly support Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity in the face of Russian aggression. But no invitation was extended to Zelenskyy for him to visit the White House.
Russian forces attacked Ukrainian defences 19 times yesterday, May 5. The heaviest shelling was at Vodyane. Attacking civilian targets, the Russians bombarded a hospital in Krasnohorivka and fired anti-tank guided missiles at Popana. Two Ukrainian soldiers were wounded in action.
Attacks by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation invading Ukraine are becoming more numerous and more violent. The Russians are firing 152 calibre and 122 calibre artillery. They're deliberately firing at Ukrainian settlements, trying to provoke an intemperate response.
Luhansk region has been quieter than Donetsk region as the Russians focus on the Horlivka-Donetsk battlefront. But unprovoked attacks at Prychepylivka, Novotoshkivske, Popasna, Novooleksandrivka and Novozvanivka show the Russians are resuming the Battle of the Bakhmut Road.
