The Israel-Gaza war is “taking away the focus” from the conflict in Ukraine, the country’s President Volodymyr Zelensky has admitted.

He said this was “one of the goals” of Russia, which launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

And he denied that fighting in Ukraine had reached a stalemate, despite a recent assessment to this effect by the country’s top military general.

Ukraine’s counter-offensive in the south has so far made little headway.

This has prompted fears of war fatigue among Kyiv’s Western allies, with suggestions of growing reluctance in some capitals to continue giving Ukraine advanced weapons and funds.

        I really think they do - looking at their comment history (after they commented on one of mine) Im not sure if they are trump-level clueless or a troll… think they are the most downvoted user I’ve seen on here.

          There’s this thing, it’s called, “scrolling down”, when reading a conversation topic.

          Nice attempt to ‘Kill the Messenger’ though.

      Dang, you’re really dedicated to this.

      It’s called normal scrolling, and seeing your next comment.

      Lol, gonna block you now. Getting annoying seeing you reply to all my posts.

      Actually, this is not the first time you told me you were blocking me. Please try to get it right this time.

      If you can’t handle disagreement with your opinions, move on, or stick your head in the sand, aka block.
