Ukraine war: What is happening in Kharkiv? | BBC News

Russian forces have, in recent days, made small but significant gains right along the border in the Kharkiv region.
Their advances are only a few miles deep but have swallowed up around 100km (62 miles) of Ukrainian territory. In the more heavily defended east of Ukraine, it’s taken Russia months to achieve the same.
Russia claims its forces have now entered the border town of Vovchansk, which Ukraine disputes.
Ukraine's military chief has said its forces are doing all they can to hold the line in Kharkiv but they are facing a "difficult situation".

Everytime BBC say "What's happening in ....", that town immediately falls afterwards.

What town? There were no "towns" involved....

[@skywillfindyou]

There were. Cause it's hard to say if something there is village or town. English has difficult time to translate it. There are деревня, село, город. While in Ukraine there is no differencies between село and деревня.

These anti BBC posters should ask themselves who would benefit from it's disappearance? There are so many repetitive anti BBC comments it's almost as if it's organised...lol. Troll farms organise multiple reporting of comments that are effective in exposing their arguments as absurd or stupid They organise manipulation of threads. That's why comments disappear. They are afraid of rational intelligent debate. Cringe.

Zelensky, Poroshenko, Merkel and Hollande admitted that Ukraine had no intention to honor the Minsk agreements. Who didn't want peace? Who advised against the 2022 peace talks in April? Hint: someone visited Zelensky in Kiev at that time.

Hey BBC, why didn't you pursue Boris on why he advised Zielensky not to accept the peace agreement?

Probably because he didn't...

Your false narrative is falling apart. The Ukraine government themselves admitted Boris stopped the peace agreement . It takes two seconds to look it up.

[@peterib8455]

Thanks to the supporters of this war. All Russia requested at the start of the war was independence of Donbas based on a decision of the will of its people due to the civil ongoing conflict and an agreement Ukraine would not join nato. Ukraine would not have been destroyed and they’d have a much bigger territory than what they have now and probably will lose a lot more. “Pride comes before destruction”!

[@joker_g7337]

Hi Russian troll army!

[@jkfdkjjd]

Russia just launched an operation to capture Kharkiv with a tenth the number of troops it needs on the same day the Russian minister of defense was fired and you think Ukraine is going to lose? LOL Russia has thrown away their economy for this war, in a couple years Russian people are going to realize that people in the west aren't waiting in line for bread like they are. People in the west will be thinking "Damn, my big mac costs 50 cents more... damn war in Ukraine... oh well"

I do. By now, most Russians should understand that they are NOT WELCOME in Ukraine. The people of Ukraine don't want to be slaves under Moscow. All Russian war crimes are recorded, registered and documented, and will be used against Russia when Putin is sent to the Hague for justice.
