"It is God who alters the times and seasons, and he
removes kings. He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to the discerning." Daniel 2: 21
Near Kharkiv, Chervona Zoria, was by Russia taken,
Sulihivka and Dovenke at the Izyum front-line
but with defence the Ukrainians are unshaken:
HIMARS and partisans do Russians undermine.
At Bakhmut Russia use bombers for support
for their attacking infantry that are being decimated,
the air attack into Ukraine they had to abort
where air-defence a number of shot downs created.
Russians are to Vasela Dolyna very near
while fighting do in Bakhmut City rage,
Russian soldiers are with the losses in fear,
while from a cross-road they want further war to wage.
Wagner and Russian commands were destroyed,
as well as ammo depots but they press on,
where new tactics they try to employ
but too many to their deaths are gone.
At Marinka, Pisky and Avdiivka fighting is intense
where from Donetsk they are supported
and their number of losses is still immense,
where this is mostly Wagner as is reported,
while very strong positions against them remain
and meters at the very most they gain.

At the Zaporizhzia nuclear power-plant
the situation is calmer without radiation,
to independent inspectors they will access grant,
where Russia took it with their invasion.
In Crimea at Sevastopol there was an attack
at the Black Sea Fleet Naval Base by a drone,
Russians fired wildly with S-300 defence missiles back.
A China-made commercial drone did in hone
and a command centre by it was hit.
A Russian female blogger on the beach,
thought that Crimea do neatly into Russia fit,
did in fear for her mouth reach,
while around her missiles flew everywhere:
nothing did her for this experience prepare.
Putin threatens with a nasty surprise
on the Ukain's independence-day,
fears of a nuclear or chemical attack arise,
that he wants the country to slay,
24 August will bring what he deems
while still God do in control remain,
where Putin like a maniac seems.
At the right time Ukraine will victory gain,
where God judge between wrong and right,
do rulers remove, do put others in,
and at times His handiwork is out if sight
when it seems everything do out if control spin
but unseen in love he acts,
even when the most evil attacks.
