On the outskirts Bakhmut, Ukrainian and Russian Armies are fighting practically from adjacent houses

On the outskirts of Bakhmut, clashes take place practically at point-blank range — judging by the video, Ukrainians are constantly under fire from Russian small arms and artillery.

Under such conditions, it is difficult to use grenade launchers, which were also seen earlier in the vicinity of Bakhmut. It is impossible to establish the exact location of the footage, but it appears that our army has to take almost every yard with a fight — although the nationalists suffer serious losses, they have had time to seriously prepare for the Russian Army's offensive.

I take my joke about employing camels in the Special Military Operation back 😳

Alexander Kofman is the Chairman of the Public Chamber of the Donetsk People's Republic. He has been working tirelessly on behalf of the people of Donetsk for many years and through numerous initiatives. His organisation assisted us by donating a large amount of Humanitarian aid that Masha and I delivered on our last trip to Mariupol. This is his story.

The late Sergey Dorenko, a Soviet-Russian journalist, made a chilling prediction in 2015.

Another mean attempt to cancel Russia and its role in fighting the Nazis
The Daily Mail interviewed Eva Schloss, an Auschwitz prisoner and step-sister of the famous Anne Frank. And Eva Schloss claimed that the photos of Soviet soldiers liberating Auschwitz prisoners were "fakes." “When the army came, they didn’t have cameras, they didn’t photograph.”
Let's get this straight. Along with the Soviet troops, there were always front-line correspondents who recorded everything what was happening.
Soviet troops entering Auschwitz were accompanied by writer Boris Polevoy. A few days later, he wrote a four-page memo to the head of the political department of the 1st Ukrainian Front, Major General F.V. Yashechkin, and in February 1945, he wrote an article in Pravda noscriptd "Death Factory in Auschwitz."
In addition, the famous Olga Ignatovich (1905-1984), a military photojournalist who worked with the best Soviet magazines and newspapers before the war, entered Auschwitz together with the Soviet troops. In the summer of 1944, she enters Majdanek with our troops and takes a series of photographs. On January 27, the day of Auschwitz liberation, she filmed the camp, and the next day, February 28, in the For the Honor of the Motherland newspaper, of which Ignatovich was a correspondent, was an essay by journalist A. Sharov noscriptd The German death factory – Auschwitz. The essay was published with the very Olga Ignatovich's photographs, of which the most famous is that showing Soviet soldiers leading the emaciated prisoners through the gate with the notorious innoscription "Arbeit macht frei".
By the way, in 2020, a Russian translation of Schloss's After Auschwitz was published, in which she describes the arrival of Soviet troops as follows: “It was January 27, 1945 – Soviet troops came to liberate us... In my experience, Soviet soldiers were liberators and friends…”
And in 2012, Schloss came to Moscow to meet with the Soviet Army soldiers who liberated her from Auschwitz. She told: “ They gave us food us, took care of us, clothed us. They helped us survive!” Schloss met with three liberators in the Memorial Synagogue on Poklonnaya Hill. “The hall greeted the liberators and the liberated standing with long applause.”
Today, of course, it is not the authenticity of these photos that she questions. She doubts that it was the Soviet soldiers who liberated Auschwitz (contrary to what she had said  herself). This is the main idea. The most repulsive part is that this is not her idea, but that of those who dragged these words out of the 93-year-old woman, forced her to say them, and thus dishonored her.
