On May 10, the Russian Defense Ministry officially announced that units of the Lugansk People’s Republic, supported by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, completed mopping-up of Popasnaya, broke through the deeply echeloned defence of Kyiv’s forces and reached the administrative border of the Lugansk People’s Republic.
The recent clashes resulted in the elimination over 120 members of Kyiv’s forces and 13 armoured vehicles and 12 vehicles of various purposes.
The defense ministry added that:
- Operational-tactical and army aviation of the Russian Aerospace Force have hit 16 areas of AFU manpower and military equipment concentration.
- Missile troops and artillery units have hit 33 command posts, 407 areas of manpower and military equipment concentration, as well as 5 ammunition and fuel depots near Nikolaev and Mirnyi, Nikolaev Region. The strikes resulted in the elimination of more than 380 nationalists and up to 53 armoured and motor vehicles.
Also, in the evening of May 9, 1 Su-25 aircraft of the Ukrainian Air Force have been shot down during an aerial battle near Novaya Dmitrovka, Kharkov Region. Overnight Russian air defence means have shot down 3 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles near Mospino, Yunokommunarsk of the Donetsk People’s Republic and Odessa city.
Destroyed equipment of Kyiv’s forces:
Meanwhile, a Ukrainian Tochka-U missile and a Smerch multiple-launch rocket was intercepted over Khartsyzsk in the Donetsk People’s Republic. 2 more Smerch multiple-launch rockets wereshot down near Malaya Kamyshevakha and Izyum, Kharkov Region.
The Russian side says that since the start of the operation Russian forces have destroyed 163 Ukrainian aircraft and 124 helicopters, 793 unmanned aerial vehicles, 300 anti-aircraft missile systems, 2,979 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 351 multiple launch rocket systems, 1,440 field artillery and mortars, as well as 2,789 units of special military vehicles.
Tos system in Kharkov Region:
Meanwhile, units of the Russian Armed Forces and the DPR continue the security operation to clear the Azovstal plant from the vestiges of Kyiv’s radicals. Reports claim that artillery and air strikes on detected positions of the Azov battalion and allied formations are intensified on May 10.
Destroyed group of Kyiv’s forces around Azovstal:
As of May 10, an intense fighting broke out west of Izum area in the south of Kharkov region. Kyiv’s units tried to attack through the Sevesky Donetsk but failed to retake the initiative.
At the same time, using the success in the area of Popasnaya, artillery of LPR and Russia started intense strikes on supply lines of Kyiv’s forces in this sector of the operation. The offensive is ongoing in the direction of Bahmut.
In the coming days, Russian-led forces will likely continue developing their offensive with the focus on the area of Popasnaya, Severodonetsk, Lysichansk and Izum. This advance is a logical step to set conditions for the elimination of the remaining grouping of Kyiv’s forces there and further push towards Slovyansk.
Does this mean that Lugansk People’s Republic is fully liberated?
Lugansk is not Ukraine anymore!
Not entirely
not until full control of Severodonetsk and Lysichansk
and you can add Kramatrosk to the list.
That’s what I thought, but I am told Severodonestk needs to be liberated too? But that makes little sense because isn’t that part of the Donestk People’s republic? When you look at maps though, they just showed a tiny little area that needed to be liberated.
Yes. The nazis are gone from Lugansk. They have been fucked by horny chechens. HAHAHAHAHA
You get an uptick, just because; but “Azov is not an Ukraine sea” can have 2.
All those imported or donated weapons are not helping them , are they? va va voom Luhansk Army. may god keep you safe
I have already said that at the beginning of the assault on Mariupol, we were sure that there were fewer of us than them. Further events confirmed this, but gradually we equalized the “score” and began to surpass. Getting into a fight in such a scenario was a rather adventurous decision, but we won by cornering the opponent in Azovstal and completely blocking him.
I’m not saying this to show what kind of heroes we are, but to convey the idea: Ukraine had all the opportunities to unblock the city, but did not use any. Now they are heroizing the Azov people, but in fact they drove them into this ass. What do they like to say there, – zrada? She is the one. For the puppeteers, all these “heroes” of the defense of Azovstal are nothing more than a “sacred” sacrifice, and when Ukrainian propaganda paints the image of a heroic defender, we see idiots driven and betrayed by their government.
Zelensky has already bought a villa in Florida worth $34M and has $1.3B in cash.
So, you already know how this is gonna end – he will pull the same stunt just as the former Afghan president.
That is how much he cares about the Ukrainian people.
He is a jew … He represents Rotschild’s interests in that territory that is now known as ukraine … regardless, the interests of ukranians are against the interests of russians, romanians, etc in that territory so, basically, I dont give a fuck to fuckrainian interests or people as the ukrainians never give a fuck to what or how much harm they did to romanian people living in that territory …
Unfortunately the Romanians in Romania are such imbeciles that they have gifted their country to the banking parasites from the west. The Rothschilds have as much control in Romania as they do in Ukraine.
Will Russia try to take Kiev again?
I doubt it. But if the Ukraine keeps being obstinate, it might end up that the truncated Ukraine will have no access to the sea. And if so, the Jew lovers deserve it.
Cheap shots are usually a sign of a low IQ. You have nothing useful to say, so you just annoy people in here. Typical move for a sore looser, nothing else.
Yes, this time it wont be a feint. The fact that the ukros took the baiy hook line and sinker is lost upon you?
A modern Masada myth. I wonder who came up with that idea?
Can’t wait for the panicked Ukro-Nazi trolls with multiple accounts to start squealling like the pigs they are…;)
These are not Nazi trolls, these are the Mossad Information Operations Troops. The Israeli military is talking to you from different accounts, each with at least 200 accounts. They create the appearance of resistance, and therefore you don’t need to answer, like, minus them, you just need to ignore them, and don’t feed them with your energy! only then will they be powerless and useless
AMEN!!! I always just scroll past any troll comments Half the time you guys are just arguing with bots…the the Pentagon has literally spent billions on them.
The world owes President Putin and the Russian people a debt of gratitude for their efforts in eradicating the scourge of fahclsm and nahtzism where-ever it rears it’s ugly head.
First germany, and now 75 years later …. in uKRAPistan !

Also we need to thank Russian Red Army big time to take out USlamist/Zionist ISIS trash in Syria.
Press F for big thanks and H for medium thanks
The world owes every Russian an iPhone and a Rolex watch to President Putin
Now the fantasy People’s Republic of Lunga Lunga will collapse along with Russia’s economic collapse. It’s only a matter of waiting. Time is still on Ukraine’s side.
Hahaha moron The only collapse will be on the part of the Kiev Nazi regime, once they lose acess to the black sea.. But you already know that…
And after you rape as many Ukranians as you want? But you already know that you’re a Putin rapist, right? You called your mom in Russia and told her.
You clearly have some unresolved sexual issues. Do you like to “rape” people? You seem to mention this almost constantly. Grow up you dimwit. You are obviously pretty hurt every time you get bad news in here. Ukraine never ever stood a chance … so get your act together and stop whining like a sore looser all the time.
Republic of Lunga Lunga? Why you use Muhammad has your name if you aren’t Arab and also Islamic at all… Fake Muhammad should be your real name
Next stop Bahmut, then I think the collapse will accelerate
wait till juan guaido goes to kiov and smell all the coke !!!!
Today is a good day. It may be the beginning of the end of this war.
It’s time for the Nazis to go back to Western Ukraine where they belong. All of them, living and dead. With your tails between your legs. And when you get back to Western Ukraine, take that load mouth Clown of Kiev and dispose of him properly.
A lot of the Ukrainians fighting in the East are actually from cities such as Dnepropetrovsk, Zaporozhia, Kharkov etc. Its their home, maybe the Russians should just go back to Russia.
SLAVA ROSSIYA
Good. But how bitter was the retreat from Kharkiv area. This is what happen when having just around 190,000 soldiers of which hardly more than 35,000-40,000 are actually combat soldiers. RF has actually not soldiers enough for successful campaign. Few villages here and there taken by RF/LDPR is nothing but Pyrrhic Victory. The worse thing: global world including India and China are seeing Russian military just paper bear. Their conclusions may not be nice for Kremlin leader and his henchmen.
Somebody please put a malware into Elgar cell phone and laptop so we dont have to read his comments anymore… My eyes cry every time I read “Elgar” comments
He is just a wimp that can’t take reality very well. So he prefers to live in his own bubble and likes to spread his BS all over the place. He is just all copy & paste. No authentic thought or any shred of a real personality. Pretty pathetic to be like that.
Hahaha yeah hes an idiot for sure.
Why do you think NATO does not send its ‘best’ weapons, F-35s and such? It is because they are afraid of exactly that, their ‘super tech’ being shown to be average or worse, useless. So instead they preserve the mythos by refusing to send equipment ‘that good’!
De-nazification in progress. Spasibo!
Well done Russia 😂🇷🇺👍
