[speak easy]

Source: Euro Weekly News

Unconfirmed reports from intelligence sources in the Russian-occupied Donetsk region of Ukraine claim today, Saturday, September 10, that Denis Pushilin, the leader of the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic has fled. A signed document that appeared online purports to be his resignation as leader of the pro-Russian territory.

Ukrainian forces are said to be liberating large swathes of territory at an unbelievable rate today, Saturday, September 10.

Several cities are reported to already be back under Ukrainian control, with the national flag flying once more. The latest breaking – although unverified – news coming from online sites is that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have reached the outskirts of the cities of Lysychansk and Severodonetsk.

1. Road to Baghdad? For better or worse, this one will stop at the Ruzzian border. . . . nt

24. What a great line!

From a modern-day hero.

15. It will likely spill over the Russian border

as the Ukrainians destroy supplies and supply lines and quite possibly cross the border to destroy any military infrastructure there.

NATO is walking a fine line here, realizing that since a state of war exists between the two countries, this is very likely to happen as a matter of course, but not being prepared to supply Ukraine with long range weapons to do it remotely. The latter would seemingly cross a line which could lead to a wider war, although one wonders how Russia would manage to fight even a limited one on another front.

The danger is that any military incursion into Russia would give the war hawks legal permission to start lobbing tactical nukes.

2. Man, Donnie really screwed up the plan for Pootie.

He was supposed to lame NATO so Poot could pull this off. tsk, tsk.

Now it is Poot's incompetence that will shine.

Wonder what the Pig thinks of Poot's great land "deal". Turns out Poot isn't so savvy or a genius.

35. You know they say 'Everything trump touches dies'

How ironic if that loser even contributed to Putin's failure/fall! Lol, that would be so fantastically epic. He was good for something after all!

[getagrip_already]

4. You can't fire me, I QUIT! n/t

[Lovie777]

5. I think I saw a video where this guy in a car was traveling away .......

and apparently telling someone he was leaving and basically left people there to defend for themselves.

[Quakerfriend]

8. Yes, saw it too.

On dailykos. -Said he was leaving “our” land for them to defend.

[brush]

6. Things are happening fast and furiously in Ukraine...

in Ukraine's favor. Is Putin's special military exercise about to fail miserably?

[padah513]

7. If confirmed, man this is huge

[honest.abe]

9. So this guy is pro-Putin, Ukrainian separatist leader.

Clearly this is major sign that Donetsk is about to fall to Ukrainian forces. Maybe already has.

"And Mercedes for the wife. She no like to be seen in no Toyota."

18. "How about Texas? Since you're pulling a Cancun Cruz and all."

"Ah, no please, thank you. Texasses are even more fucked than Russian peoples."

ETA Disclaimer: Lucky me! I lived in Lubbock! (past tense version of once-popular local song and bumper sticker)

[peppertree]

19. "Texas? No! Ees too low-class for us."

"But, Mr. Pushilin. You and your wife grew up picking potatoes, and walking barefoot in the snow - uphill, both ways..."

"All the more reason!"

[liberalla]

11. There are so many reports and rumors coming out of UKR in the last few days! I can't wait to see

the confirmed news and reporting when all the dust is settled! I hope it is wildly successful. The Ukrainian people need a break. They deserve to live free in peace and return to productive satisfying lives. They deserve victory over Putin.

I look forward to celebrating the UKR leaders and soldiers and their brilliant winning strategy (eventual). I'm so proud that we supported and assisted them.

I'm especially proud of Joe Biden leading efforts and organizing NATO to help Ukraine fight back!

[Jirel]

12. You can run but you can't hide, traitor!

Which one do you want? A Ukrainian trial or a Russian shot in the back of the head?

[erronis]

13. If this continues, massive reparations for Ukraine. Take them out of Putin's hide

and all of his "friends" including tfg.

[cstanleytech]

14. So did he flee to Russia or did he flee the entire region hoping to escape from one of Putin's

well known assassination hit squads?

[Effete Snob]

16. The rumor could be a ploy to flush him out.

Since he’s gone to ground, then starting a rumor he resigned is a good way to try to make him pop up out of his hidey hole.

[Backseat Driver]

17. Hope its true!

[brer cat]

20. The situation in Ukraine is changing so fast it is hard to keep up.

If confirmed, this is good news.

[oldsoftie]

21. Please UKR, don't outrun your supply lines & don't get flanked!

But keep up the pressure!!!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

22. Good

[mysteryowl]

23. Possibly, a really good spy made this happen

[blue-wave]

25. By September 18th? Lol!!!

[niyad]

26. May it be so!

29. Russia is going to have their Saigon 75' moment with Ukraine very soon.

Get ready for a mass evacuation of their so-called independent Russian states in Ukraine in the near future.

31. Hope so! 🌻🇺🇦🌻

[NBachers]

[FossFafy]

32. Long live Ukraine

Brave people.

34. How is Putin going to play this?

Will he claim his, "Special Operation," has succeeded, so now they're leaving?

[Martin68]

36. BFD!

Ukranian collaborators are now quaking in their boots.
