It’s becoming ever more difficult for the Kremlin to exude any air of confidence in regard to their military capability, and the entire world is well aware of that fact. In all honesty, Vladimir Putin and his cronies are humiliated – as well they should be – as their consistent and constant failures in Ukraine demonstrate Russia fealty to the rest of the world at large.
Now, as Russia throws another 300,000 civilians into the line of fire with little to no preparation whatsoever, many are surrendering almost immediately, and with embarrassing evidence video to prove it.
RUSSIAN soldiers cornered during Ukrainian’s lightning-paced counteroffensive have been filmed surrendering with a white flag flying from their tank.
Incredible footage shows the vehicle heading to Ukrainian lines, as thousands are said to be throwing down their weapons in the face of Kyiv’s blitz and Russian continues to lose swathes of territory.
Ukraine has been on a roll.
The lightning advance puts Ukraine‘s defenders in striking distance of Kherson city – the only provincial capital captured since the February 24 invasion that is still in Russian control.
And senior US officials last night said Ukraine could even take back Crimea, if the military continues to advance at its current rate.
The official told The Telegraph: “The recapture of Crimea by Ukraine is a distinct possibility and can no longer be discounted.”
Dr Mike Martin, a fellow at the Department of War Studies at King’s College London, said: “The Ukrainians have had a great day in the south – Russian lines are continuing to collapse and pull back.”
In his nightly address, President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed his troops had liberated three more settlements in the Kherson region of southern Ukraine and their offensive “continues”.
The clip was soon making the rounds on social media, and can be seen below.
