######  **5/6 eyes media is talking up the alleged incident, first reported two days ago, of Russian soldiers executing surrendering Ukrainian soldiers. [ A saga that has been wrapped up nicely with claims now that Ukraine executed the Russian soldiers.](https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/12/3/7431450/)**

> **The Russian invaders who executed unarmed Ukrainian servicemen have been killed, said Vitalii Barabash, Head of the Avdiivka City Military Administration.**
> 
> **As far as I know, a little later our guys stormed these positions, and all who were there were killed.”**

**Who could question this narrative now?- It began and ended with Ukrainian claims and no verification** **from any other source/s**

**That said there are multiple reports that Russia is making gains on the ground and opening new fronts**
