Kyiv’s military says more than two dozen battles around Bakhmut, near Avdiivka and Maryinka.
Ukraine has said its troops recaptured three villages from Russian forces in its southeast, the first liberated settlements it reported since launching a counteroffensive.
Soldiers hoisted the Ukrainian flag at a bombed-out building in an unverified video published on Sunday by Ukraine’s 68th Jaeger Brigade, which identified the settlement as Blahodatne in the Donetsk region.

I saw a news article saying Ukraine had captured a village. 😂😂
4 actually and pushing further south
Ukraine thought that it will retake lost territories in 3 days but it’s a week since the beginning of counteroffensive and only taken two empty houses.
What gibberish is this?
@45641560456405640563 Russian bots tend to copy statements from the other side due to lack of imagination.
The 3 days was mentioned by the West when Russia tried to conquer Kyev. Now they copy it as if they brought it up first.
Never noticed?
This villages ukrainians are claiming to liberate was never under Russian occupation , this are the grey zones live warmap ukraine never indicated those areas as red .now the clownish ukrainians are hoisting flags.
This theatrics and propaganda and heavy lies will never help the ukrainians on this war to have an iota of success.
Seven days and you are hoisting flag in a village .?God help ukrainians God help zelensky.
Why don’t we have forceful peace negotiation conversations.
We all know ukraine can and will never win this war. It’s so sad that ukraine has become a military testing ground, and finally, Poland will be the nuclear weapons testing ground.
Then the will be peace for 70th year n back to testing weapons once again. Money oh money.
well then move to Russia if you feel that way and join some militia, best money ever spent by the west
@Dave Cuddahy. Regardablity, your health status of being blind and deaf understandably affects your judgment. We Americans blood, money,food, weapons, water, technology, policy on free speech, right to life and liberty was and, as to date, has been shared to every country throughout this world. We help Russia against Germany. Know your history blind and deaf human if you are. They are no winners in a NUCLEAR WAR. Ukraine is begging for weapons to fight a war. Russia as weapons to fight a war. We Americans are the bread basket of the world. Love it or leave it alone.
Do you Remember when Al Jazeera was a trusted media channel? Well ,now its fake as CNN…
Why do you even speak to this Kremlin mouthpiece😂? You know it is lying because it’s lips are moving!
Peace! The Hollywood actors are always complaining of residential attacks by Russian troops, while they are the ones that causes the attacks, because they are hiding in the buildings and using it as their shells, attacking Russian troops through it.
Helpful to remember that the same people feeding you this information are also the people who told you 1) Russia blew up it’s own dam. 2) Russia blew up it’s own pipeline. 3) Russia was leveraging ‘Pee Tapes’ to extort US politicians. 4) Iraq had WMDs. 5) The North Vietnamese sunk a US ship in the Gulf of Tonkin.
😢🎉😂🎉❤.. 👉🏻👉🏼👉🏽 America calls it “Liberation” instead of “Invasion”. That was what US call it in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia and the list goes on… Why the double standard? Confused… Please enlighten. Genuine question…

End of the battles are coming …. Peace should come soon …………….
Nope, this will be a 10 year high intensity war, in which Russia will be destroyed
💪🗽✌️🇺🇦🇺🇦😘🫶💛💙
The ruSSian trolls go bananas and I love it!
Slava Ukraini!
🇧🇷❤️🇺🇦🤞😍😋👌
For Putin: CRIES PIG!
How come russia will win these war? As of today counter offinsive ukrainian troupes out number russian soldier?.
Ukrainian PR Army writes stories for news outlets.
Or you can’t accept reality 😂
As opposed to the russian version of reality 🤔
where is the Russian news about how they are taking new territory in Ukraine…. oh… why are you even commenting on a western media platform ?…can western people comment openly on Russia media you great thick dumb hypocrite…
Ukraine needs everyone to believe they’re winning and not blowing up any pipelines or dams. Okay, got it 😂😂😂😅
Putin want you to think Russia is winning when he is ready to run to China.
@bradley heights simple, Beijing told Moscow to pump the brakes in-order to drain US resources. 😘
Change ukraine to russia and you are 100% correct
@Read is good De waterkant In the US, we’re only allowed to see the Ukrainian propaganda, so I wouldn’t know what Russia is saying.
the ukronazi did not loose the nonstrategic city of bachmut,why are they desperately trying to get it back?
It’s really amazing people still fall for this Russian denazification propaganda. Just amazing.
where is the campaign of silence 🤫?
ukraine is getting destroyed in natos counter offensive
🤡
looks like it will be a stalemate again.
3 villagies😅😅😅😅😅😅
What kind of joke is this .
Funny how Al Jazeera keeps western narrative and not showing hundreds of destroyed western equipment ))) There are tons of videos showing burning Leopard tanks and other US and EU equipment. Ukranian army didn’t even reach 1st Russian defense line, they getting destroyed in “Secure zone” which is 15 km from 1st Defense line but Al Jazeera is talking about 2 small villages )) I guess real journalism is dead in Western media only pre paid reports to fit Western narrative. I wonder how you gonna spin total defeat of this Coutner offensive ?
Ukraine army may reach the Russian first line of defence in a week ?
Serious question. Where is Bradley Square ?
The Russian defense is not based in the villages, the Ukrainians simply occupied empty villages where there were no Russian troops. The fact is that they cannot even approach the 1st line of defense, their vaunted Leopards and Bradley are immediately destroyed. They might as well plant a flag in an empty field and claim a “great” victory.
Tesla would call you a fool.
Bakhmut was empty as well. Nevertheless Wagner cried victory.
There are video’s of Russian’s mass retreated from these villages. There are already videos of Ukraine’s getting revenge and destroying Russian convoys for taking out Ukraine convoy.
@Imnackered Sirnackered And where can I see it, name the source? (I know YouTube blocks links, just name the channel)
Russian has disappointed us, they turned from offensive to defensive.
Kiev ofensive u ZEMETERY ?!
D day like
Russian bots on here is good employment. Working in a basement without windows , just in case they mistype .
Image dieing for Monsanto, Black rock and Vanguard…Hilarious
With so much “friends” help, and force Ukrainians took 3 villages?
And the number of dead, the number of destroyed equipment, vehicles…?
I used to complain about the money athletes get and movie stars, I thought it was too much,
but now I feel sick when I see how much money employees in the media get for what they give us.🤮
If you think a blitzkrieg and a 2 weeks invasion of Iraq is the norm of modern warfare, then you’re mistaken. Ukraine is still fighting against a superior force, and their victories against Russia is outstanding. And yes, there will be loses and casualties…coz it’s war, Mr. All knowing couch general in cheif
Almost no casualties on Ukrainian side, one ambush with transport vehicles and 2 tanks destroyed was shown at least 10 times in the last three days. Oryx has identified several destroyed tanks and maybe 12 transport vehicles. In short, don’t spread Russian propaganda here, not everybody is stupid to believe in their lies.
Haha I swear they do as much as they to make the self feel better about losing to Russia lol
What happens when this counteroffensive fails….?
Then there will be another one.
@Petroleumalley with which men? Which resources? We should not forget that there are people who are dying….do Biden/Nato aid packages contain sons,husbands ,fathers? Do they? Do Putins factories contain the same? ….let us remember that these are men with names who are dying
Reporting a load of garbage that’s all o can tell you a load of bull
Ukraine Kaput !
Yulia as hot as ever. 🤩🤩
Three villages in exchange for over 7k dead
fake news channel,,
continue with your lies
Russia is a terrorist state.
Ukraine must win.
Why aljazeera showing a training video of Ukrainian forces come on man go to the Frontline and sho reall footage, not even the first defensive line is reached.
Peace will come one of two ways. #1 Both sides start the peace process. Unless Putin is deposed, both sides appear to proud to negotiate a peace. #2 The second way one side devastates the other. Most of Russia’s military budget has been dedicated to missiles and submarines. Russia has the worlds largest stockpile of nuclear weapons. For a while Russia was the worlds only ride into space. The US has begun building a new generation of weapons. It appears we are getting ready.
After a whole week…we took three little hamlets after a whole week without even breaking through the first line of defence. Hardly a great success especially with 8000 odd Ukrainian casualties plus lots of equipment destroyed.
27 jan 2023
Unfortunately the second best army in the world has been forced to defend 😅
Shame on Russia
Amazing that Ukraine now on offensive and Russia running away with heavy casualties 😅😊
God bless Ukraine
🤣🤣🤣 yeah i bet ukras are arriving moscow soon in your head 🤣
@Kappa Claus running away, while bombing civilian in ukraine killing children
@Chandan Maharjan “Documentary” Thanks for the entertainment. Time to set the journalism bar a bit higher than dubious pro-Russia propaganda.
@Ishmael Watson eh…. so next you will be telling us Russia is taking new ground… you are a delusional fool…
Russia is winnig .
Russia will be in kiev in 2 weeks Im sure ,to librrate all of ukraine

Russian Defence Ministry Daily Report for Monday 12th June 2023
Uh huh, tell us more 🙄
Slava Ukraine! ❤🇺🇦
В составе России
Heroyam slava
@Людмила Федорова Киевская Русь, вы имеете в виду? Конечно, Белгородом можно управлять и из Киева в соответствии с Конституцией Украины и флагом.
@Sahasranshu Dash God bIess R U army !
Slava Bandera?
AL Jaeera is not that balanced as purported even if this news holds truth exceptionally.
Ukraine need modern helicopter gunship
and 10k F22
Ukraine has already lost 15% of the Bradley’s
15% of all promised bradleys, more than 15% of all they received yet.
@bradley heights maybe, so your position is fund Ukraine as long as it takes? Another endless war ?
and Russia is down to using 1950’s vintage tanks and equipment… Ukraine will just get more and more and better and better equipment… as Russia gets down to older and older junk…
@Miles Dugmore 1950s hahahahahahhahahahahahahahahqhhaha
Keep up the good work Ukraine. You can beat the inferior Russian forces. Free your land of them.
150 billion ,US in debt crisis , EU broke , 20 thousand sanctions, grand theft auto of russian assets and they managed to kill ten cows..
At this pace we guess another 42 trillion and Europe begging on the streets of Somalia till they LIBERATE a grocery store in Bakhmut.
Slava Ukraini!
You can guarantee NATO troops are on the ground. The west cannot afford Ukraine to lose.
Ukraine will never recover from this war.
Putin is gonna need a ride to Beijing soon to avoid the ride to the Hague.
Ukraine is winning the war🥰 badass,
If American go to war with Ukraine for sure, American will cry like a baby girl 🤪
Russian military will lose this war and Putins government is living its last year. God bless Ukrainians who are defending their land and people!
Akmut forces controls 99% of Maryinka
But he is right. Marinka is gone.
Ukraine sees a victory in sight. They are giving it everything to finish it. Go Ukraine !
Lol 😂
And what are the relative losses in men and equipment? For gaining a few low lying towns where they will be sitting ducks for Russian air and artillery.
Clearly little Vlodymyr is serious about fighting to the penultimate Ukrainian before bugging out.
Slava Bandera?
@John Kesich ah… Ukrainians are fighting for their country.. you want to tell us what Russian fighters are fighting for… Putin has ALREADY got Finland and Sweden to join Nato and open the door for the Nato membership for Ukraine.. maybe Putin has more he wants to do ? DUMBO
@John Kesich. Re: little Vlodymyr. Zelensky and Putin are both around the same height at 5′ 7″ each.
The war never bring you a happier news. Neither Russia nor Ukraine can win weapons are winning against. People with unbearable losses
Western selebrates cupture of three vilages in the gray zone. Half an equipment is destroyed along with several thousands of troops and Ukraine took vilages which noone defended. Ukraine is not even approached to the first line of the defense.
Did you watch Ukraine on fire documentary? must see
Orikhiv … Tokmak to Melitopol WE KNOW HOW THE AMERICAN GENERALS ARE TRYING TO CUT OUR THROATS” LIKE SADDAM HIGHWAY OF DEATH route80..1.Putin has placed his best presidential guard units for this fight !! 2. If?? Western weapons can smash through these Russian soldiers who are better paid ready to die for the motherland THEN Putin will have NO Option BUT use tactical weapons …….
Salam, Shlomo, Shalom, Peace.
Freedom To Ukraine, Palestine & Kurdistan.
With F16, Ukranian push could be much more effective. Why the West didn’t give airplanes to Ukraine? Secret deal with Putin?
May be sombody know me
Russia will get a big punsch in the next Week
For now it is only Operation to stress the russian defence
Ukraine if you really want peace then just surrender 😢 move to the US for a better life 🙄 let’s invade their land 🙂 glory to ukraine and slavery to US 🤣
There is despair setting in European NATO hawks as the Ukrainian long awaited counter-offensive has made no progress , while Ukraine army is suffering heavy loses.
!! this mighty Ukrainian counter-offensive drama been hyped by US collective media and experts – we had massive US-UK-EU-Ukrainian drama and propaganda past 4 months: Well its a highly flopped Ukrainian counteroffensive.
Ukrainian goat counteroffensive-, many recently trained by US collective are deserting the front lines under Russian heavy firepower.
-Its been all a major Hype of British and German tanks, armoured vehicles and training of Ukrainian forces:
SO far all hot air – by Ukraine and US uk-EU collective media. Where has all our billions of CASH gone -Zelenskys and his clowns pockets… ????
NATO and America is not ready to go to war. It’s doesn’t have enough man power and that’s the truth.
Using Ukraine to fight Russian is foolish n unresponsive.
The Hungarian president is truthful and honest.
America is part of NATO so it’s weird to mention them separately.
NATO never planned to go to war. It only concentrated on its defense.
No one used Ukraine. They decided to defend themselves against the Russian invasion and that is supported with equipment and intelligence.
Hungary should be kicked out of NATO. They used NATO for their own safety only and have no added value.
The war is entering a new critical phase. Canada’s Prime Minister Trudeau borrowed another billion dollars to train up a brigade on transgenders, furries, gender queers and some other weird alphabet names. They are being sent to Ukraine’s front lines as we speak.
Slava Ukraina glory to the heroes
I have never been in a war tone country, no have I experience war, but I have seen in my continent of Africa, countries going to war and people flee from their native countries far and wide. My country Zambia has been a hub for many refugees from different countries including Congo DRC, Angola, Rwanda, Somali and Burundi.
Can’t wait to see a day when guns can be silenced in Ukraine war and allow people to live a progressive life.
Love is the message I wished to send to all involved in the war.
Go Ukraine 🇺🇦💪 we are with You 🇺🇸
Down with Ukraine.
Fingers cross i wish UA would able to sustain there counter attack and ruskys will withdraw without a fight..GOD SAVE UKRAINE
Aljazeera reports are like Ukrainian bloggers 😂😂
If somebody is checking the map,it seems that they are going in a trap if the russian are starting to shoot on them from the heights. And if somebody checks the russian line defense,tvey didnt even reached to the first line. So manny lies and people are dying and all of this lying is a dishonor for their deaths. Why Boris didnt let last year the peace threaty be signed? We are so small and they are hiding so much from us.
Wagner is walkin WEST. Honorable Russian soldiers = pa pa PLEASE surrender. YOUR surrender will SAVE LIVES – most importantly yours. Subject to passing a security review to make sure u not a “special GRU asset” – for example – YOU will be given asylum in United States 🇺🇸 and a check for 100k. Offer good for 24 hours from … MARK. Drop all weapons – raise WHITE – walk WEST w arms and hands full up. F fighting for a moNstEr. SAMMIE wants you to come home. Offer only good for 24 hours.
Al-Jazeera, guys you REALLY NEED to change your sources, fo more field work and check military blogs with good footage. At the end of the fifth day of counteroffensive UAF lost 14 bradleys hit by heavy artillery ir trapped in mine fields in the Orikhiv axis, and at least four leopard 2a6 also in the zaporizhzha area, all confirmed with real footage. Your guy in kiyv, well send him on holidays. You did disappont me seriously.
So have the Ukes actually reached any of the Russian defence lines yet? Or are they just getting destroyed in the grey zone?
🧝The British sent TRUDEO to make a payment and start the counteroffensive after they blow up the DAM. nice. The long-range Storm Shadow cruise missiles fragments are not evidence that the British blow the DAM, nothing to see here, just like the nord stream gas pipe lines. Only an idiot believe Russia will destroy their own water supply to CRIMEA like the MEDIA is making you believe🧜
🦹♂Same video of 3 days ago, wonder how many feet more the British,USA trained army are able to advance🧝♀
God 💪 Bless 👊 Ukraine 🇺🇦
Bakhmut is of no strategic importance. They should just bypass it
War is a Racket, so donate to save the Ukraine and continue the wars just like you do by voting.
Propaganda channel.
War in Ukraine pays acting for Bugsys decision
In the past, Russia was the trainer of Ukraine. But now the trainee fight against its trainer aggression. 🎉🎉🎉
