Image: Reuters, prompting Russia to claim full control of the eastern Luhansk region, a key Kremlin war goal, but President Volodymyr Zelenskyy vowed to regain the lost territory.

Ukraine on Sunday said the tactical withdrawal would save the lives of its soldiers who would regroup, to launch a counter offensive with the help of long-range Western weapons. But Moscow said the capture of Lysychansk less than a week after taking neighbouring Sievierdonetsk meant it had “liberated” Luhansk. It said it will give Luhansk to the self-proclaimed Russian-backed Luhansk People’s Republic whose independence it recognised on the eve of the war.

The battlefield focus now shifts to the neighbouring Donetsk region, where Kyiv still controls swathes of territory.“If the commanders of our army withdraw people from certain points at the front, where the enemy has the greatest advantage in firepower, and this also applies to Lysychansk, it means only one thing,” Zelenskyy said in his nightly video on Sunday.

“The fact that we protect the lives of our soldiers, our people, plays an equally important role. We will rebuild the walls, we will win back the land, and people must be protected above all else,” Zelenskyy said.

Dam when is this stupid war gonna end?

Someone plz advise Zelensky to just give up at this rate there will be no more Ukraine left standing with these constant bombings

SouthAfricansP1 What will transpire, is that a 50km wide no-man's land of scorched earth will come into existence.

SouthAfricansP1 Now Lysychansk can become a Russian bastion under siege, bombarded like sitting ducks, internally, legitimately, with short range weapons, by Ukrainian forces, supported with Western alliance arsenal. Should be a strategy for all the border regions abutting Russia and its allies.
