๐Ÿช– Ukraine finds WWII-era British Hawker Hurricane fighters in aircraft graveyard near Kiev, tries to make it political

National Aviation Museum of Ukraine lead researcher Valerii Romanenko couldnโ€™t help but attempt to mix the discovery of the WWII-vintage planes with contemporary politics, calling the Hurricanes "a symbol of British assistance during the years of the Second World War, just as we are very appreciative of British assistance nowadays."

What Romanenko didn't mention was that the Nazisโ€™ wartime allies โ€“ the Ukrainian Insurgent Army militias portrayed as heroes by Ukraine's current government, fought against the Soviets during the Second World War, and carried out war crimes against Ukrainians, Russians, Poles, and Jews.

It also apparently slipped his mind that Kiev today is using its British missiles to target Donbass settlements populated by the descendants of those who once fought against the Nazi menace together - but have now been made to fight one another in the Westโ€™s proxy war against Russia.

Ukrainian Defense Ministry forced to admit deterioration on the frontline as Russian Army advances

The situation in the Svatovskoe direction has become more complicated for Ukrainian troops, Ukrainian Deputy Defense Minister Anna Malyar has admitted. The Russian Army is also advancing in the Avdeevka, Maryinka and Liman directions, she added.

The Ukrainian push in the South Donetsk, Zaporozhye, and Artemovsk directions began on June 4, and resulted in major losses for Kiev's forces.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said last week that Ukraine had lost 259 tanks and 780 armored vehicles since the so-called counteroffensive began, while Ukraine was not able to achieve any success across the frontline.
