How the invaders stormed the bushes

• Russians like to brag about their “annoyances” . Therefore, sometimes they don’t even need to do anything for this, since you can always come up with something.
• Propagandists announced a “courageous attack” by the Russian military in the Svatovsky direction. However, it turned out that it was a “training” landing assault along the front line.
• Independent observers found out that in fact the invaders stormed an empty landing 15 kilometers from the line of clashes in the Luhansk region. It is noted that this could have been a training exercise by the occupiers.
• Video footage of a Russian attack on a thicket of bushes near a village in the Starobelsky district of the Luhansk region with an accurate geotagging was published on February 20 by the DeepState monitoring initiative.

What is the situation in Bakhmut: the main thing

• National Security and Defense Council Secretary Alexei Danilov said that the invaders are trying to take Bakhmut by the anniversary of a full-scale war. At first they promised to “give” it to Vladimir Putin on October 7 for his birthday, but failed.
• British intelligence claims that Russia may announce that they allegedly captured the city of Bakhmut, around which bloody battles have been going on for several months. The Kremlin needs to show at least some victories in order to reduce the pressure inside the country.
• President Volodymyr Zelensky stressed that it is important for Ukraine to defend Bakhmut, but not at any cost.
