Russia has abandoned its main bastion in northeastern Ukraine, in a sudden collapse of one of the war’s principal front lines after Ukrainian forces made a rapid advance.
The swift fall of Izyum in Kharkiv province on Saturday was Moscow’s worst defeat since its troops were forced back from the capital, Kyiv, in March.

Russia’s front line troops have fled their positions in Ukraine’s northeastern Kharkiv region as Ukrainian soldiers on Saturday forged ahead with a blitzkrieg to liberate occupied territories.
Over the past days, Ukrainian troops have made unexpectedly rapid gains in a counteroffensive to the east of the city of Kharkiv, attacking key strategic towns such as Balakliia, Kupiansk and Izyum, which are vital to supply and logistics for Russian forces based in the eastern Donbas region. After several weeks in which the conflict appeared to be heading for a stalemate over winter, the NATO-armed Ukrainians are now seeking to seize the momentum, with a two-pronged attack in Kharkiv to the east and Kherson to the south.
Russia’s defense ministry sought to put a brave face on the Ukrainian successes in Kharkiv and suggested the Russian retreat conformed with the goals of President Vladimir Putin’s notorious “special military operation.”
Victory of the free world. Slava Ukraini
Useless war
The gulf states should hope Russia isn’t successful, a world ethos of imperialism again would lead to those countries becoming colonies to a stronger energy hungry nation.
👎 propaganda. Fake news.
Prove it is fake. I dare you.
@guido toth who are you? Prove that you are a human.
@Дело в кепке Like I thought. You can’t back up your statements. Thanks for proving my point little man.
Aah! There are still some Russki botski alive!
Afraid the biggest surprise May happened, Nuclear boom to Kiev and Warsaw 🥶
Tomorrow I will understand president of Ukraine weeping asking more weapons 😃😃
Tomorrow Putin will double his guard to protect himself from assassination
Russia will attack with more aggressive action
The Russian defeat in Ukraine is the best think to happen to the world
HASTA QUE NO QUEDE NI UNA SOLA RATA ASESINA EN TIERRA DE UCRANIA. DIOS Y UCRANIA EN TOTAL PROTECCIÓN BENDICIONES GRACIAS PEDRO XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX DESDE MIAMI
Definition of Russian regrouping: Running like scared rabbits with a wolf at their heels.
hahahaha… Just a sweet dream… feel a kinda pity for the west … shoudn’t you wait for the winter before proclaiming victory…hahaha
Alternative reality.
More dangerous offensive to come from russians. remember when Russians are retreated from Kiev and what has happened next was captured of Maripoul, zaporija………All bots comments won’t ever win the war. Stop US proxy war to save Ukraine for completely destruction. We will all be loosers.
russia has been cancelled, go home
Stay strong brave ukrainian warriors !!💙💛💙💛
Questions is how long can they hold the ground especially if equipment flow is not regular from tye west
I’m curious about where did the russian orcs hide the “denazified” washing machines? hahaha
Zerensky is the lion 👑 now, he warned them last week, to run for their dear life or surrender to Ukraine, and he even promised them some good treatment 💏😆😆😆dead hears russian securical 👀forces
Respect and best wishes from USA.
🙏🟦🟨🙏
Russian defeat begins. It ends with total destruction of Russia and Putin killing himself.
Evil will be defeated. Russia has always been an evil and primitive country.
Evil Russia deserves to be wiped off the map of the world.
I wander🙇 how Russia is going to react; now that is confirmed that NATO forces are directly fighting the war against Russian forces in Ukraine😈
The world’s news abruptly shifted from Kherson to Kharkov, a less of a strategic gain for Russia. I’d say that spells out how things are going in Kherson.
Anyway Russians will not give peace to Ukraine in the future, Ukraine is gone
L’absurdité la mensonge la propagande C’est complicité C’est faux
Al jazeera corrupt. Presents messages given by US …
I want to believe that this will be the beginning of the end, but…russia cruelty is very well known and we must be prepared to give a even stronger support to Ukraine because we can’t trust russians…there are to many putins in russia, to many….
Gest of good will from the orcs of isengard
The Himars might be the poster child of the fight-back but probably the biggest thing is the low morale of the Russian soldiers and six months of proper training of the Ukrainian troops.
Attack the Russian’s in the south hard. If they loss the Crimea Peninsula ,its all over for Putin
Ukraine should give Russian more war to reclaim all it stolen lands
No war in Ukraine
A tale of two different religions and peoples. Moslem afghans were too given sophisticated and advanced western forces but they just abandoned them to be taken by the Taliban to be used against humanity while the Christian Ukraine forces were given essentially the same or a little limited warmaments , like himars not going beyond 80miles or so, yet they were able to learn in a few months how to use them weapons and then in fact utilized them to beat up Putin and his ragtag military. Kudos to Ukraine people, both Catholic and orthodox but all the same Christian believers. Luvya all guys who fight evil Putin and evil China CCP etc in their axis of iniquity. Let’s now invade Russia and China mainland to liberate those hapless and helpless citizens of despots. Take all Putin stolen money and those of his family and cronies so all their victims worldwide will share in proportion to their sufferings. Next is to invade China and Iran and Cuba and Venezuela and even North Korea or maybe even opportunistic India coz they are all threats to lasting peace and prosperity in the free world. All those who do not join the all out war against these criminals against humanity must not share too in their combined resources which must be enjoyed first by their oppressed people and then given to free world military so that no despots may live and reign again in these cursed nations. So help us, Lord JC
Remember how it worked out when Russia overstretched the original Nazi’s supply lines and drew them out from behind their human shields…looks like Russia can take a clean shot now 🤫😉
I have said from the beginning of the senseless war by Russia
Putin will regrets his action over his brother Ukraine
The devil takes all and leaves none I’ll wait for the end to make comments
.What if you died tonight, what would you do, what after death, were we created in vain, why were you born in this family, why not this, why you look like this and not like this, where do you go when you sleep and where were you before you were born, and the wonders of metabolism and heaven existed like this without a creator.. who brought Adam And what was the constraint of that.. Ask yourself… God is one, God has no equal, God has no children.. Say, I seek refuge in God from the accursed Satan, and search for God
This war is so weird! Russia is losing a conventional war against a weaker poorer country! It doesn’t make any sense
western tech, and it’s not just Ukraine who’s fighting, there are so many mercenaries and spec ops there too, just not ‘officially’. Russia has the numbers but inferior tech and conscripts.
bye orcs
What did Ukraine forces did nothing at all,Russia is only regrouping it’s force only.
Hilarious. “Regrouping” equals, headlong retreat.
Special military regroup operation
It’s a cat and mouse game you won’t understand it only Nato and Putin can tell.
@ashly cone Did you call Russia a mouse just now? 😉
Ukraine fighters makes Putin’s pee-pee hurt.
Hope Russia, soon win this war… And defeat to NATO nd West…
Dude, trolling is so over. 😉
Ukraine, Turkey is on your side. Bayraktar, HIMARS, HARM and Excalibur, all go together to deal against the Russian Empire.
No mobilization is needed. Putin uses and disposes of Russians like toilet paper, he needs to be arrested and executed in Red Square. He needs to de-annex Crimea and get out. He is a ‘Terrorist’. Ukraine needs Unlimited PGWs with unlimited range and rounds to DEFEND ITSELF (neutralize any and every weapon fired by the Russian military) All they are doing is defending themselves. If Russia’s military does not fire a weapon towards Ukraine, Ukraine will not have to fire ‘NEUTRALIZING ROUNDS’ to silence them.
The war will end immediately, once Ukraine is made a NATO state!!! What is taking so long????🤔🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
This dumb reporter is oblivious to the fact that Ukraine announced an offensive in Kherson that was a feint, luring Russia to send troops to the south and leaving the Kharkiv and Northeast areas under-defended. A simple tactical trick that the Russians took, hook, line, and sinker. The fact that they failed to report the calls from Russian officials to arrest Putin for treason is mind-boggling.
Hopefully Ukrainian forces aren’t being lured into some trap.
Kkkkkkkkk super power
As I said a month ago…Putin days are numbered.
Dear Putin, Ukraine is not Afghanistan or Syria, you are fighting against white people army this time, the level of resistance is different, you can’t even defeat the Taliban, what make you think you can defeat about 20 millions men of Ukraine, stop the blood shed and move east of your border.
It is Russian trap
Russia doesn’t have any future in Ukraine, nobody wants them it isn’t about occupying it is about holding which is impossible…
I bet American generals are loving this.
Keep fighting – you are sure to win!
God helps you in your fight!And on the renovated land
There’ll be no enemy, no rival,
There will be son and will be mother,
There will be people on the land!
For fame and freedom march with you,
And right is on your side!
Taras Shevchenko
Great news 👍
Okay pull the soldiers out before we drop the big one on them.
Oh look they are retreating
The mighty russian army is not as mighty as we thought.
You guys remember that movie “Downfall” where Hitler is going off on his Generals and people made memes by just putting whatever subtitles on there? Well there’s gonna be a future movie about this war and there will be a lot… of Putin memes. That is how he will be remembered on the internet by future generations. As an angry joke yelling about some contemporary thing.
I can’t believe it. Russia is throwing their dead troops into Ukraine Rivers.
See Russian soldiers fleeing from Ukrainian soldiers is so reminiscent of the Nazis at the end of World War 2. Putins behavior throughout has been as though Adolf Hitler was his mentor including his denials of reality.
Russian go home leave your brothers in peace
Russia is playing games. Retreat is to make Ukrain busy with …😂
TO MANY FAKE NEWS
ALJAZEERA NEWS THANK YOU SLAVA UKRAINE
it would be hard to imagine putin being able to hold power if he loses this war and It would also be hard to believe Russia can win in the long run.
Full support to ukraine from India
Just like the D-day in WWII.
Roll’em up and keep sending Ukrainians even more materiel, intel and aid. Let them put a swift end to Putin’s murderous folly. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇨🇦!!
HOHOHO WHAT A DESPETATE RUBBISH NEWS IS TO FOOL KIDS & DUMB PEOPLE..WATCH US COL.RICHARD BLACK NEWS REPORT.🤪🤪🤪😜😜🤪
Great true/story,book titled-“Cowboy Mafia🪴🌿
BS….
If Ukrainians can get back to their pre-2014 borders they can stop. Putin will destroy the rest of Russia. Russia will probably collapse unless they can get better leadership just as the Soviet Union collapsed. Putin has learned nothing from history.
The orcs are running! The orcs are running!
Quick note, these “settlements” that ukraine captured are nothing more than some streets that the Russians decided weren’t worth defending, no seriously it’s actually kinda comedic seeing a few blocs get called villages
God bless Ukrainian people
My salute to the bravest army in Europe today the Ukrainian soldiers
Nobody else know such detailed about Ukraine and Ukrainen people
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦bravo et gloire aux peuples ukrainiens qui se battent pour leur pays 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

If russian will not pullback to thier original line. They will suffer significant losses. And more country will rush to join nato.
it would be hard to imagine putin being able to hold power if he loses this war and It would also be hard to believe Russia can win in the long run.
wow big and bad Russian army retreating against a bunch of untrained ragtime soldiers with pop guns. Such fake news. Reporting on a fake war. Please bring us more lies.
Well that’s what happens when the whole country feel the need of fighting for their motherland and that’s the reason and number one difference from well paid army
When this war began I said invading Ukraine was the beginning of the end of Vladimir Putin. Remember when they were flashing Z, now that Z has become an L
Tactical withdraw…just forgot to take equipment also.
War brings misery and destruction!! There are no winners??
Tactical special operations by Russia.
Russia is the thief that stole Crimea, got too greedy and came back to steal more.
al jazeera has also started propagating american agenda
Ukraine is the dark forest. Every Ukrainian is an armed hunter stalking through the trees like a ghost searching for the invaders. Come in Peace or Leave in Pieces…………. Hail Ukraine!
About time, they wake up…the Ukraine army🤣🎪🙌👍🙃🙀🙈🙊🙉🇺🇦
Russia it’s losing the war, they sucks, bunch of butchers
Another Fake News Media theater show for all the gullibles

All of 🍁 supports Ukraine.
