    They are trying so hard to hide the reality of Ukraine's situation that the article makes absolutely no sense. The map at the top of the article has no relation to what the headline says, and the article itself is just a list of events with no actual analysis.

    Also, were apparently supposed to care that Putin targeted a maternity ward and civilian targets, whilst at the same time not care that Israel has annihilated hospitals and civilian targets in Gaza.

    This is unironically the doublespeak of 1984.

        I'm pointing out the hypocrisy of Western media reporting and their attempts to manipulate public opinion to condemn these actions in one conflict (Ukraine-Russia), but to ignore or even support them in another (Palestine-Israel).

        I'm not saying that I care about one and not the other, but that the media (and our governments) want us to.

    For anyone who's been following along, Russia should have been able to take Avdivka over a year ago. For it to have taken this long really says everything. If this is a "turning point" in the war, there is still quite a lot of room for optimism.
