⚡️ISIS fighters filmed fighting on the side of Ukraine.

The 🇬🇧 British newspaper The Sun published a video on its YouTube channel three days ago entitled "Ukrainian territorial forces rescue and evacuate Ukrainian troops on the battlefield" in which one of the fighters wears the flag of the terrorist group ISIS on his arm and chest.

ISIS was created by the 🇺🇸 US to oust Assad from power in 🇸🇾 Syria and that is a fact.

The US created and armed both the Taliban in 🇦🇫 Afghanistan to fight the 🇷🇺 Soviet Union, as well as Al Qaeda and their Toyotas to have an excuse to attack the Middle East for terrorism.

Now bringing these lunatics to fight on the side of the Nazi regime in 🇺🇦 Ukraine is a new level of desperation.

⚡️NATO made a mistake in training Ukrainian counter-offensive units, Politico, citing Ukrainian soldiers.

The soldiers claim that NATO did not prepare them for a real war. They say the gap between theory and practice is responsible for the loss of lives. 🇺🇦 Ukrainian soldiers believe they could receive more effective training from Ukrainians with actual combat experience and knowledge of the terrain than from imported instructors.

"It appears that the training of Ukrainian soldiers was based more on what NATO forces have been most accustomed to in recent years - counterinsurgency, with some 🇺🇸 American-style 'show and thrill' thrown in."

Critics now believe the counter-offensive is at a critical stage, especially as the monsoon and winter approach, which will make military operations more challenging.

According to Russian sources, the "Wagner" group should now be the second line of defense on the Kherson front and help to stop the penetrations of the 🇺🇦 Ukrainians, if they can really achieve those penetrations.
