Russia-Ukraine Flash Report 15 MAY 2023 11:00 PDT - Trust but Verify
🕑 Added 2023-05-15 18:00:16 +0000 UTCThere is a flood of questionable reports of territorial gains and losses by Russian and Ukrainian sources in the Dvorichna, Svatove, and Bakhmut Operational Areas. On the surface, almost all of these claims are questionable at best and are not being made by reputable sources.
Both combatants are engaged in information warfare right now for different reasons. The Kremlin is trying to message "all is well and we are winning," while Ukraine is trying to create panic among Russian mobiks and contract soldiers. For this reason, we advise our listeners and readers to "trust the process" and wait for "right versus first." There is a lot of fog of war right now.

Thank you for taking the time to check.
There is an audio recording being circulated as “proof” that Klishchiivka has fallen. Haven’t seen any evidence on Ukraine retreating from Bakhmut. I’ll wait for the situation report tomorrow I guess 💪

As things heat up in the conflict it's important to keep this message up front in our minds. Especially in a world where being first is an end in and of itself.
First liar doesn’t stand a chance.
