❗️The White House called Zelensky's visit to Washington "a signal to Putin"

Thus, the United States shows that it will support Kyiv for as long as it takes. At the same time, the administration of President Biden says that they allegedly are not looking for a direct confrontation with Moscow and will not go to send their forces to Ukraine.

Russia recruiting US-trained Afghan commandos for Ukraine: Al Jazeera

Afghan special forces soldiers who fought alongside American troops and then fled to Iran after the United States’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan last year are now being recruited by the Russian military to fight in Ukraine, the Associated Press news agency has reported.

Three former Afghan generals told the AP the Russians want to attract thousands of the former elite Afghan commandos into a “foreign legion” offering a steady, $1,500-a-month salary and promising a safe haven for themselves and their families so they can avoid deportation home to what many assume would be death at the hands of the Taliban.

If Russia continues its policy, the number of explosions on its territory will only increase, the secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine, Oleksiy Danilov, has said.

"If you continue to pursue this policy, as you have chosen now, believe me, there will be bombings not only there, but also in many cities, and as they say, they will not be little(large scale/powerful explosions)," Danilov said, thus indirectly confirming the terrorist activity of the Ukrainian special services.

Marjorie Taylor Green called Zelensky's upcoming speech absurd

"Of course the shadow president has to come to Congress and explain why he needs billions of US taxpayer dollars for the 51st state, Ukraine. This is absurd. Put America first," a member of the US House of Representatives wrote on Twitter.

"From the realm of propaganda." Ukrainian Armed Forces unable to launch winter offensive, military expert says

Despite the fact that reserves, reinforcements, and artillery are being transferred to the Zaporizhzhya direction, the Ukrainian army has no plans to prepare for an offensive. This opinion was expressed by Anatoliy Matviychuk, a candidate in military sciences, to the "Go and See" channel.

Earlier, Ukrainian Defence Minister Reznikov announced an offensive by the Ukrainian Armed Forces when the ground becomes less wet.

💬 "Perhaps they foresee some offensive actions, but I think it's all unserious. In these directions - Zaporizhzhya, Kharkiv, Kupyansk - we are prepared for defense, and repeated attempts of offensives (by the AFU. - Ed.) are broken," Matviychuk noted.

According to him, such statements by the Ukrainian authorities are made to strengthen propaganda and mask the real state of the army.

💬 "What Reznikov said is from the field of propaganda aimed at the population and the West: "We have not abandoned the intention to show you that the Ukrainian army is strong after all. At least, the state of the Ukrainian army, according to the data I have, does not suggest any offensives yet," concluded the Ph.D. in military science

SEVERODONETSK:
"And our house burned down... We tried to put it out - the wind was strong, nothing could be done. We are living in the basement now. We couldn't save anything. What's here - a sofa, armchairs, people gave us that. We lived in this house that burned down for thirty years, and now my husband and I have celebrated our 35 years together here in the basement.
We have nothing left, nothing at all...
I also write poetry:

My whole family will gather around the table,
We'll drink tea with pancakes, jam...
# To remember only the best of our years
And I'll never give up on our enemies...

And I won't shed a tear
And I'll paint over my gray hair.
Just as long as they're always by my side
And then I'll be able to live differently..."

I visited Severodonetsk. The city is slowly recovering; the lights are switched on almost everywhere, and water and gas supplies are connected. Markets and transport are beginning to work, and there is work on construction sites. People have survived and need help: help and protection.
We look and listen to stories, real, alive, mine.
There is only the truth.
Your Mariana Naumova

❗️ In Artemovsk, active preparations for battles in the city are underway, while civilians are forced to work in the interests of the nationalists - Marochko

LNR military officer Andriy Marochko said that Ukrainian nationalists, who still control Artemovsk, are actively building fortifications, as well as creating fortifications and digging trenches. In addition, he said, they are setting up firing points in the flats of civilians there.

"Civilians, including women, are also being involved in the works. To a greater extent, they are forced to work under the threat of violence, but there are cases when they are paid with food and hygiene kits supplied by international humanitarian organizations in the form of free aid," Marochko said.
