Ukrainian Troops Ordered to Advance 500M Daily

Ukrainian President [V]ladimir [Z]elensky (right) has set a daunting task for his military, demanding that they take at least 500 meters of territory every day from Russian forces. His order given in a video address on Sunday, comes despite Kiev's troops reportedly suffering tens of thousands of casualties in their floundering counter-offensive.

 

As he explains, such progress is needed to strengthen Ukraine and motivate foreign allies to provide even more military support.

 

Of course, what [Z]elensky wants is well nigh impossible. What he actually means is for his troops to spill at least 500 liters of their blood every day! 😮😈😈😈😈

 

Celtic gained their first Champions League point of the season in a ferocious Wednesday contest with Atletico Madrid where they drew 2-2. 

 

The Scottish champions’ two goals came from Kyogo Furuhashi's fourth-minute opener and Luis Palma's angled strike in the twenty-eighth minute. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The draw meant the Scottish champions retain a chance of claiming third place and a Europa League spot – but progression in this competition is looking increasingly unlikely.
