    Why is Russia trying to annex it?

    Oh I don’t know maybe because the Kiev regime had been telegraphing for eight years their plans to use the oblast as a vector to reconquer Crimea

    Why is Russia trying to annex it? Why is the russian military leveling towns, sometimes still with civilians living there

    You think the Russian military are the one leveling towns and territories they’ll have to rebuild and administer, filled with allied civilians? Motherfucker, the Ukrainian army are the ones openly leveling towns to stop any and all Russian advances, angering western advisors by wasting mountains of artillery ammunition while hunting “collaborators” in the regions they’re purportedly trying to liberate, only Bakhmut can be said to have been destroyed in equal measure by the Russians, and that was a result of Ukraine turning that town into Redux-Stalingrad for no real strategic reason beyond media glazing

    You literally don’t know anything about this conflict
