Ukraine war: The human cost of the counter-offensive

Every inch of territory that is being won and lost in Ukraine's counter-offensive comes at an immense cost to the men on the frontlines.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
But the heavy toll is not just being felt on the battlefield.
In homes all over the country families are coming to terms with grief, loss and a future without a cherished son, father or brother.
We have been talking to some of those whose loved ones will never return and to the soldiers whose lives have been changed forever.

Ukraine still has a long way to reach the RU defense line to achieve a significant breakthrough. Just imagine how many lives and infrastructure could be saved by both Ukraine and Russia choosing peace over this damn proxy war!

The Western nations surveyed in the study have a combined population of nearly 1 billion - approximately 13% of the global population of 8 billion. This is a mere fraction of the populations of China (1.41 billion), India (1.39 billion), Russia (142 million), and Türkiye (83 million). Together, these countries have a population of just over 3 billion - making up around 38% of the total global population. ... “Many in China state that American and European support for Ukraine is driven by the desire to protect Western dominance”, the study acknowledged. “And for the vast majority of Chinese and Turks, Western support for Ukraine is motivated by reasons other than a defence of Ukraine’s territorial integrity or of its democracy”, it added. 45% of people surveyed in China, 38% in Russia, 30% in Türkiye, and 23% in India said the US is supporting Ukraine simply in order “to defend Western dominance”. ... The report admitted that “people in non-Western countries possess a clear preference for the war to end now - even if it means Ukraine having to give up territory”. 54% of people surveyed in India, 48% in Türkiye, 44% in Russia, and 42% in China think “the conflict between Russia and Ukraine needs to stop as soon as possible, even if it means Ukraine giving control of areas to Russia”. Despite biased wording from the pollsters, an additional 12% of people in India, 8% in Türkiye, 29% in Russia, and 12% in China said “Western dominance of the world needs to be pushed back, even if it means accepting Russian territorial aggression against Ukraine”. ...

In China, 79% of people surveyed see Russia as an ally or partner (35% as an ally and 44% as a necessary partner). In Türkiye, 69% of people surveyed see Russia as an ally or partner (14% as an ally and 55% as a necessary partner). ...

Interfering in a foreign territorial conflict is one thing (all great powers do so), but actively prolonging it beyond all reason and compassion is why I blame the West, and Ukraine’s heartless leaders. Mark my words, the war will end after an entire generation is slaughtered; and the very same ‘peace’ deal that was proposed a year ago, or could be agreed even today, will finally be agreed. Any death from now to then will serve no purpose, asides from weakening Russia and serving Western interests, at the cost of Ukraine.

    WSJ is describing Zelenskyy mobilization in this way: "Mr. Zelensky in January introduced even harsher punishment for desertion and disobedience. A disabled person was drafted in western Ukraine and pronounced fit for service despite having no hands. Another died on the front lines within a month of mobilization after 10 days of training, according to his relatives." Zelenskyy is officially catching and forced conscripting even disabled (not only army recruiters, but also police, border police, secret police and even municipal authorities are officially hunting for hapless cannon fodder leaving desperate people no chance to escape Zelenskyy goons). When such people are in the trenches let alone forced to go on the offensive, it's a recipe for disaster. They simply refuse to fight and surrender at the first opportunity.

    Ukraine IS NOT part of Russia! Have you ever spoken to a Ukrainian, asked them how they feel? The country as a whole voted to leave the USSR when they had the chance; 83% in favour in the Donbas, and 56% in the Crimea, those areas of 'ethnic Russians' that are supposed to be clamouring to rejoin the Motherland. All you are doing is supporting a neo-Nazi government whose stated objective is the eradication of Ukraine as a state, of the Ukrainian people and culture, and of Ukraine as an idea. Everywhere the Russians have been kicked out you find torture chambers, mass graves of executed PoWs and civilians, and victims of rape and torture. "All will be better..." Really? Do you believe that? The evidence from Kharkhiv, Kherson, Izyum and Bucha suggests otherwise, and fits well with Russia's historical record. Torture, rape, murder, concentration camps, deportations, kidnappings and disappearances are what awaits Ukraine if Russia wins. The Crimean Tartars are already being subject to another persecution and mention of Ukraine is being erased from Russian school textbooks. Everything Russia does suggests the intention to commit genocide. And people like you support it.

    Sometimes foreign influence as in meddling with a foreign nations goverment has it's price. Geo-political game of " RISK", you should listen to Victoria Nuland's infamous voice recording a few times carefully! Why was 2 US goverment officials, disgussing who to install in the Ukranian goverment? History of the CIA worked over south america really good, now in this case it seems to be backfiring. Why was the peace agreement presented in Türkie rejected after Boris Johnson visited Kiev ?
