U.S. officials say Donbas victory won’t end war

New U.S. intelligence suggests Russian President Vladimir Putin is gearing up for the long-haul when it comes to his invasion of Ukraine, as the war enters a “stalemate” period

Three months in and Russia has intensified its offensive in the eastern part of the nation, but its gains have been slow.

The invasion has killed thousands of civilians, with many others fleeing their homes to escape the devastation.

America’s Defence Intelligence Agency head also says between eight and 10 Russian generals have been killed as a result of the combat.

But all Moscow has gained is a small piece of Ukrainian territory in the east.

Vladimir Putin remained tight-lipped about any plans to escalate the war during his Victory Day speech.

In a rare public meeting, U.S. Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines says a victory in the Donbas is unlikely to end the war.

In Ukraine’s north-east, officials say they have found the bodies of 44 civilians, laying in the rubble of a building that was destroyed by Russia weeks ago.

A five story building collapsed, with Ukraine’s head of regional administration calling the incident “another horrible war crime of the Russian occupiers against the civilian population”.

This comes as the UN human rights monitoring mission warns thousands more civilians have died in Ukraine during the war than previously thought.

MDMA is a drug commonly known as molly or ecstasy.

Some medical professionals say it can be helpful for people with post-traumatic stress disorder — which is why a group has been fighting to get MDMA legalized as a prescription drug.

Currently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is reviewing an application to use MDMA to treat PTSD. The agency is expected to announce its ruling as soon as August.
