Ukraine Manpower Crisis: 650K Ukrainian Men Flee As War Deepens And Russia Advances In Donetsk

Ukraine is facing its worst manpower crisis since the start of the war with Russia, with The Telegraph reporting that at least 650,000 fighting-age men have fled the country since 2022. Many others are hiding within Ukraine or bribing officials to avoid conscription. The draft evasion problem is spiraling as Russian forces push forward in Donetsk, with military analysts warning of severe infantry shortages and failing drone operations. Reports suggest desertions have surged to nearly 400,000, while disturbing videos show Ukrainian draft officers violently detaining men in what locals call “busification.” Even support roles like mechanics and radar operators are being reassigned to frontline combat. Thousands have attempted dangerous border escapes, some ending in fatalities. Ukrainian commanders warn the situation is becoming unsustainable, threatening the country’s ability to continue the fight. #Ukraine #Russia #WarInUkraine #DraftEvasion #UkraineCrisis #MilitaryShortage #Donetsk #UkraineWar #Mobilization #Conscription #UkraineConflict #Busification #UkraineFrontline #RussianAdvance #WarNews #UkraineDraft #UkraineProtests #UkraineArmy #MilitaryCrisis #EasternEurope ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.194~

Russia SLAMS Trump For His ‘BLEAK’ Prediction On Alaska Summit | Trump-Putin Summit

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov downplayed Donald Trump’s prediction that there is a 25% chance the upcoming Alaska summit with President Vladimir Putin could fail. Speaking ahead of the high-stakes talks, Lavrov said Russia would not engage in forecasting outcomes, emphasizing that Moscow has “arguments and a clear, definite position” ready for the meeting. He credited U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, Trump’s close associate, with laying much of the groundwork for the discussions and expressed hope that negotiations would continue into the next day. The Anchorage talks, already under global scrutiny, come at a time of tense U.S.-Russia relations and ongoing war in Ukraine. While Trump has framed the meeting as a potential breakthrough, Lavrov’s remarks signal confidence in Russia’s approach and suggest Moscow is prepared to stand firm. The world now watches to see if the dialogue will ease tensions or widen the divide. #Lavrov #TrumpPutin #AlaskaSummit #RussiaUS #AnchorageTalks #PutinTrumpMeeting #USPolitics #Diplomacy #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UkraineWar #PeaceTalks #USRussiaRelations #SergeyLavrov #SteveWitkoff #Negotiations #AnchorageSummit #InternationalRelations #WorldNews #GlobalPolitics Also Read Why Putin Wanted Alaska For the US, Russia Summit?

Trump to THROW Ukraine Under The Bus? Trump’s Most Explosive Statement Before Meeting With Putin

Russia Reveals Putin’s Top 3 Demands Before Alaska Summit | Will Trump Bow To Putin’s Demands?

In a move sparking outrage in Kyiv and across Europe, U.S. President Donald Trump is facing accusations of caving to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s demands even before their high-stakes Alaska Summit begins on August 15, 2025. The talks, set at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, aim to broker a ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine war, but Moscow insists on three controversial conditions: Ukraine’s full military withdrawal from four occupied regions, formal recognition of Russian sovereignty over annexed territories including Crimea, and a constitutional ban on NATO membership. Critics warn these terms would reward aggression, dismantle Ukraine’s sovereignty, and embolden future invasions. Trump’s openness to “territorial swaps” has raised fears of a deal without Kyiv’s consent. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has vowed “no concessions,” while European allies caution that agreeing to these terms could rewrite global borders by force and undermine international law. #Trump #Putin #AlaskaSummit #UkraineWar #Ceasefire #RussiaUkraine #Zelenskyy #Crimea #NATO #Geopolitics #InternationalLaw #Kyiv #USPolitics #Moscow #PeaceTalks #WarNews #Diplomacy #TerritorialDispute #GlobalSecurity #BreakingNews ~HT.178~GR.124~ED.346~
