Ukraine told critics of the pace of its three-month-old counteroffensive to "shut up" on Thursday, the sharpest signal yet of Kyiv's frustration at leaks from Western officials who say its forces are advancing too slowly.

    Right, Ukraine was fighting corruption. Russia entered on the side of… corruption.

      “Fighting corruption” is an interesting way to describe sustained artillery bombardments of civilian targets.

          I’m not sure what that has to do with shelling cities, are you suggesting he was hiding in one of the buildings or what?

            Look, the heckin’ wholesome slava ukrainis didn’t know where he was so they had to shell everywhere! It’s like playing Battleship, except it’s mostly other random innocent people that you hit
