A: Hey John, you got a minute? I just heard something interesting.

B: Sure thing! What's up?

A: Turns out our Ukrainian friend Arsen from Pokrovsk is having a tough time with the Russians. You know where Pokrovsk is, right? In the Donetsk region.

B: Yeah, I remember. What's going on there now?

A: Well, it seems like they got more people on their side. Arsen said the Russians have so many troops that they just keep coming and coming!

B: Wow, that sounds tough. Is that all? Just numbers?

A: Nope, he also mentioned they don't care much about people's lives when attacking. That's a bummer.

B: That does sound rough. They're trying to surround his unit and cut off supplies too, right?

A: Yup. And they've been using air power to help their ground troops against us. Every day, he said the Russians have been dropping over a hundred guided bombs on buildings.

B: Whoa, that's heavy stuff. Has Russia asked Ukraine to surrender or something?

A: Yeah, but Arsen said they'll keep fighting! They even told him their goal is to cause maximum damage to the enemy. Sounds like they mean business!
