Ukraine's Bakhmut: Inside the frontline city • FRANCE 24 English

The eastern city of Bakhmut has become the most active and violent frontline in the Ukraine war. It is constantly pounded with both Russian and Ukrainian artillery, and infantry is fighting on the streets. Our reporters James André and Mayssa Awad spent six days inside Bakhmut. They followed Ukrainian soldiers fighting to hold the city and the last residents struggling to survive under constant shelling. This is their exclusive report.

    Huge respect to James André and Mayssa Awad and to France24 for their reporting here - this is the reality of this awful war. So much of the reporting is like we are seeing a sports match being played out with military and political pundits opining like its the World Cup or something, it's really grotesque. People are being ripped apart literally and figuratively and it shows absolutely no sign of stopping any time soon. Tragic.

    Yeah, it's in front of a TV camera. And the survivors and residents of Soledar taken to the rear tell a different story. That the Ukrainian army is not supplied with food and they are massively robbing the apartments of residents who left and stayed. They break down doors, take away not only food, but everything valuable. They take it all from the front line to the rear in abandoned cars and send it home to their families. In pure Ukrainian they say: Finally the Russians have come, and it's all over. Thanks to the Russian guys, we were happy to meet them.

If The US is in the position of Russia, the US surely do the same as what Russia has been doing now. Smart and wise leadership, will bring peace and prosperity to the country, on the contrary, it will cause devastation and poverty as well as destruction to the country . And Other countries gain all benefits from the stupid war.
