The US has warned that Russia could seize Ukraine’s key eastern town of Avdiivka - the scene of some of the fiercest fighting in recent months.

“Avdiivka is at risk of falling into Russian control,” National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said, citing Ukraine’s ammunition shortages.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky vowed to do everything to “save as many Ukrainian lives as possible”.

Russian troops have made gains in Avdiivka, threatening to encircle it.

    When you see your conservative co-workers, neighbors and relatives, remember that they did this.

    The genocides in Ukraine, Gaza and eleswhere are planned, committed and celebrated by conservatives. The planet is overheating, the vulnerable are oppressed and entire families are being murdered all because of conservatives. The murder and destruction will continue as long as conservatives are able to make it continue.

    Remember this when you see them in your daily life. Remember they are the source of this.

        Who’s the speaker of the house blocking aid, again? Oh, it’s a MAGA GOP guy.

        Which party is trying to do shit about it, and which party is blocking everything, even shit they agree with, because Biden is in power?

        Top cognitive dissonance.

        Indeed, maybe you should get that looked at, or find someone to explain simple concepts to you.

          Nope, they’re gonna downvote everyone and put their fingers in their ears.

          Ten seconds of looking up who is blocking aid to Ukraine is too hard.

        I know things are different where you’re from in Russia, but in the US we don’t have a dictator who can do whatever he wants without congress.

          He did just fine sending Israel support without congress at least once. He could send aid if he wanted to.
