Lyman is liberated, and many of the Russian's there are no longer combatants as they are now dead, wounded or captured. This loss is going to add even more pressure to the Russian need to get bodies to the front. It seems unlikely that fear of bad reports and the constant
drumbeat of send more men now and endemic corruption will permit Russia to actually train the mobilized soldiers. The troops answering the call (vs the men fleeing to foreign shores) are basically going to be untrained militia fighters. Losses are going to skyrocket. We may be
about to enter/ have entered a feed back loop. Where Russian mothers who have lost sons, and other mothers who have sent their sons into exile become too big of a political problem to ignore. Putin has already had to address the screw ups, but now the Czar will be shown to have
no clothes on. This is no longer something that he can blame on the "boyars" and corrupt officials. Mothers will give their sons to a cause, it's their particular curse to give birth to men who must needs be die before them. But the cause better be just. This war is not that, not
for the Russians anyway. The number of men fleeing proves they do not believe in it, not deep down, not when it matters. Not so the Ukrainians. Imagine being a Ukrainian mother... you've sent your son, and your husband off to fight knowing that they know that if they fail, you
not only lose them, but get visited by all the horrors that the Russian army can visit on you. It's absolute evil that Putin forced them to send those they love the most into harms way. Its why we have to do our part and make sure those sons and husbands (and daughters and wives)
have the kit they need to fight, win and survive. Its why Lend Lease is so important and I am thankful that @JohnBoozman, @SenTomCotton, and @RepFrenchHill support Ukraine. I am proud that my home state of #Arkansas is doing its part pumping out HIMARS and the rockets for them.
its why I give to @MriyaAid and encourage you to do the same, or give to another charity like @UkraineAidOps or @U24_gov_ua. It also why I post every day and joined #NAFO to support the @georgian_legion and combat Russian dis-info aimed at stopping Western support for Ukraine.
Opposing the #GenocideOfUkrainians is not fun, but it is a duty and when Ukraine wins on her terms it will all be worth it. Every life we manage to save through our robust support of Ukraine is one less mother whose war trauma will never end. So, keep giving, keep engaging and
combating the trolls and stay informed with trusted sources and of course @MriyaReport as Ukraine continues her efforts to end this war through liberation. Slava Ukraini!
#russiaisateroriststate #UkraineWillWin #Lymanhasfallen #Kreminna @mfa_russia <--- still losing and so are so many Russian mothers, they will never forgive you.
