West Admits Jets for Ukraine will Take Years + US Sanctions Blocking Syrian Earthquake Relief
Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for February 13, 2023 + US sanctions deliberately compounding Syrian earthquake relief efforts:
– US rep admits US sanctions and occupation of eastern Syria are to prevent reconstruction for use as leverage following Washington’s failed proxy war;
– Russian missiles & drones targeted Ukraine’s power grid inflicting heavy damage nationwide; – The missile/drone strikes included an unmanned naval drone targeting a bridge in Odessa;
– Western governments and analysts admit that it will take years to send Ukraine NATO jets;
– Any appearance beforehand means NATO pilots are posing as Ukrainian pilots;
– CNN claims captured “Wagner” fighters say Russia is suffering heavy losses, CNN suggests 80% of the 50,000 Wagner recruited have died, been injured, or are captured;
– This suggests only 10k Wagner fighters are outfighting/surrounding Ukrainian troops in Bakhmut;
– CNN used US-EU supported front “Russia Behind Bars” to back claims in report, a similar tactic used during the US proxy war in Syria;
