Ukraine says hit Crimea oil terminal, Russia claims gains • FRANCE 24 English

Kyiv on Monday said that its forces had struck a large oil terminal overnight on the occupied Crimean peninsula as Moscow claimed the capture of another village in east Ukraine. Ukraine also said at least five civilians were killed on Monday by Russian attacks – including in a strike on a civilian ship in the port of Odesa – as well as in the east and the south of the country.

  2. No gains when you throw massive 🍖 to your assault,it's a catastrophic event Russian soldiers endured for two years without moving forward.Just count how many perished in September alone ,so the hype of the little red army being the best is nonsense from those who idolise Moscow and the Kremlin.Ukraine had proven them incapable and incompetent exposed to the hype so void .You can say the strength of the Russian army went away with Prigozhin with his convicts

  3. The EU’s outgoing top diplomat says Kiev could lose the conflict with Russia in two weeks if left on its own: The Ukraine conflict could be over in 15 days if the West stopped supporting Kiev, outgoing EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell has predicted. In an interview with the Spanish news outlet 20minutos published on Monday, the diplomat signaled that while “many” want the conflict to end as soon as possible, Ukraine’s Western backers won’t be happy with it ending on Russia’s terms.

    According to Borrell, if the EU and US suddenly stopped helping Kiev, Ukraine would be forced to capitulate.

    Slovak prime minister (Robert Fico) – the fighting “continues only because it is being strongly supported by the West.”

    “The sooner it ends, the better it will be,” he added, arguing that Western efforts to use the conflict to inflict a defeat on Russia will fail.

    “Everyone thinks that through Ukraine we will bring the Russians to their knees, but this Russophobia does not work. It turns out that this problem cannot be solved militarily,” Fico stated.

    Zelensky has tough choices to make, and if he gets them wrong the situation may spiral out of control.

    How can the army achieve new victories when the core of motivated veterans is running low and is being replaced by demoralized and poorly trained draftees? What can be done about the Kursk operation, which is becoming more trouble than it’s worth? How to compensate for the apparent lack of supplies from abroad? How to motivate the West to stay in the game for ‘as long as its takes’?

    Russia’s main goal in Ukraine is not territorial gains but the beginning of a strategic dialogue with the West, which would lead to an end to NATO’s eastward expansion. The West and Kiev either do not yet want to accept this, or genuinely don’t understand the Russia’s motives. But if they are serious about dialogue, Russia’s interests will have to be taken into account. Otherwise, any peace initiative will be doomed to failure.

  13. I wonder why Ukraine will target Ukraine Russian oil terminal, know fully well if Russia decide to take out ALL of Ukraine Energy grid, they can do that in less that 3weeks….. These targets are stationary therefore Easy target, Ukraine started this strikes on Energy infrastructure just to weaken Russia revenue, winder is approaching

  17. You don't want to negotiate, you invaded Kursk instead if defending your country..now they moving into your country faster while good troops are in a region no one cares about

  19. 😂😂😂😂 … your channel literally feel shame to provide comp information always 😂😂… Russia recently destroyed Odessa oil field after Ukrainian attacked … that video might be clown 🤡 zelensky didn’t share with u 😂😂😂
