  1. the truth will win. Putin can lie and blind his people all he wants. He's the mirror image of Hitler. Right down to the lies. Slava Ukraine !

  2. Russian soldiers were deceived regarding their Special Military Exercises by Putin, who is now a war criminal based on International Military Law. Many if not all know that now. The best thing for them to do is surrender and become POWs. It is safer for all involved. This is not Russia vs the Allies. This is a matter of Putin vs the decent people of the world.

  3. If there’s one thing the Russian army knows how to do it’s die at war.πŸ‘ŒπŸ» Best dyers ever πŸ™ŒπŸ»

  4. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΈπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ

  5. Russia – a failed and despised nation once again.

  6. Why do they say how much Russian troops died what about how many Ukraine soldiers are dead why lie its only one side propaganda

  7. She ask him a question pertaining to the casualty rates in regards to the Russian military and he rattles off talking about the casualty rates among civilian population, did he not understand the question that was being ask, or did he just have his own agenda that he wanted to get across while he had air time

  8. Anyone curious how come there are tons of news reports about russian casualties, civilian casualties, but i hardly see any news on Ukrainian soldier casualties?

  9. well it's a start ,only about 171,000 to go and then all the peacekeepers well be gone .almost got sick even saying peacekeepers .. out …

  10. Zelensky 666 πŸ‘ΉπŸ‘Ή he is fooling the 🌎 ,. Just like the Prophecy……he has Biolabs, ,,. Look i to up on Google or YouTube

  11. Liars!!! Russians DO NOT touch civilians, bt benders kill civilians and try framing Russians for it! And the reason for it is, that Ukrainian president dumped thousands of weapons in the city and anyone who wanted got a hold of the weapons.

  12. Ukraine claims more than 10k Russian Troops, no no no no they are wrong. Correction: there are 2 million casualties in Russian Troops right? Now, Biden is proud and happy with that right? US yankees claim that US war in Afghanistan had 2,461 American fatalities, that's correct, but they don't count the casualties in military contractors that overpass 20k in casualties.

  13. I don't want to hear another word about Chicago from any of these cave dwellers.

  14. Do NATO want Putin to remove Ukraine from the map and kill millions of innocent people!?

    – Ukrainian President Zelenskiy accused Russia on March 9 of carrying out a devastating air strike on a children's and maternity hospital in the southern port city of Mariupol. He said children were among the people "under the wreckage."

    – NATO and Blinken still ignore human disaster and are afraid of declaring a No fly zone!. They also failed to give Mig or provide more anti tank and anti air flight missiles to Ukraine!

    They pretend any help to Ukraine causes a Third world war!

    Does Criminal Putin want to get killed by many Nuclear bombs!? No, so he will leave Ukraine.

  15. Vote against Biden in the next election..let's get rid of Biden and the SquadπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“š

  16. Lets see pictures of Russians throwing babies out of incubators and people suffering nerve gas attacks and washing their faces with milk. Need more media Fake News.

  17. The US lost about 4,000 troops of all branches of the Armed Services over a 20 year campaign in Iraq and Afghanistan respectively. Russia lost that amount in 20 days. πŸ₯ΆπŸ™€ So much for a former Superpower reclaiming its lost glory having had all the time in the world to plan for this. They're also getting stuck in the mud and suffering from cold, lack of food, and zero command and control structure. This is the 21st century they're fighting like it's the Crusades. Ukraine will win!.. ✊

  18. Russian can’t count . I thought Count Dracula was Soviet .

  19. Ukrainian losses include 953 tanks and other armoured vehicles, 101
    rocket artillery systems, 351 pieces of artillery and mortar systems,
    718 military vehicles, and 93 drones. He also indicated that 137
    Ukrainian S-125, S-300 and Buk-M1 air defence systems had been
    destroyed, with these losses constituting over 90 percent of Ukraine's
    air defence systems.

  20. Does any of Putin inner circle advise him of what he is doing is wrong?

  21. When the leaders of the world are Putin, Biden, Xi, Macron, Trudeau it's highly possible things can get much, much, much worse.

  22. More than 11,000
    Is it some kind of joke ? 🀣🀣🀣
    In just 2 weeks ?
    11,000
    Lol
    Ukrainians can make some stories
    I agree with this 🀣🀣

  23. Russia can commit any atrocities and we will say the same thing. We see it as too risky economically, politically, et al, to becomae physically involved. IF they take Ukraine do we become involved on the next invasion if it is to west of Russia?

  24. Absolutely fake numbers..
    I just feel sorry for those who believe these fake news by western media

  25. Why didn't you try calling the phone number that list which Russian is been held captive and which Russians are dead because they're trying to keep account for the Russian mother's to call

  26. There is no need to drive anyone away, to demand more decisive actions, Flags of Victory over Mariupol, Sumy, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, Odessa, and even more so β€” useless Kiev with three million panicked, propaganda-pumped citizens. The objectives of the operation, strategy and tactics are a completely new page in the art of war, haste is unacceptable.Let the Ukrainians pickle themselves in the cities, digesting the Banderites who have settled in and the "territorial battalions" fooled by Nazi propaganda. Who can no longer cope with looters, what kind of "reflection of aggression" is there. The final turning point will come after the cleansing of Kharkov, blocking or taking Odessa. All the heroic self-defense forces of other settlements will dissolve by themselves, obvious signs of a humanitarian catastrophe are already visible in the surrounded cities. The fog, when it is completely false, subsides most quickly in the dark, invigorating coolness and on an empty stomach. It is useful to know history in order to predict the behavior of the Nazis. This is such an ideology, social norms of life, worldview.

  27. Regardless of the numbers,, where are the bodies?

  28. I wouldn't be surprised if we were to see western news outlets report Ukrainian soldiers shooting gamma rays from their eyes and annihilating anything Russian within their visual field. They are literally taking anything from the Ukrainian side, adding spices and then pasting it on the channel. These news channels have become a f-ing joke!

  29. Great job freedom fighters ! take no prisoners

  30. Keep the Russian Body Count Climbing..πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘ŠπŸ‘Š

  31. ukraine claims 11,000 soldiers death casualties while russia is claiming hundreds of civilians casualties… see the difference

  32. The world powers need to accept the fact that the attack on Ukraine is just the start with Putin. He will do what Hitler done, go from one country to the next, because his bluff of nuclear retaliation is working.
    Stop allowing Putin to carry on with his murdering campaign in Ukraine.

  33. Soon it will be nuclear war….
    I want one more vacation before the nuclear bomb. Can we delay nuclear bomb till next year please????

  34. Rule number one, never trust a Russian. Rules 2-100, see rule number one.

  35. I’m with Ukraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ but at the same time they are definitely Talkinh out of their ass there is no way they killed that many Russian bc Putin would level them if that was true

  36. i am crying! i wont to go there help but i will be killed in nanosecond. i am not a solder ;(((. Jesus stop this now! lets love and travel and have fun! we don't need this !! why should have good life. We all should stop having fun, having hot water, going to work., planning vacations i feel guilty planning my day tomorrow!

  37. 500 sounds more likely so far looking at all the images

  38. I don't care how much inflation or gas goes up. I would rather walk then have to walk a mile in some brave Ukrainian shoes

  39. Ukraine has been part of Russia for hundreds of years, and half of the population there are Russians connected by numerous family blood ties with Russians living in Russia. In 1991, the Russian government betrayed its people and divided Russia into 15 parts, and separated from Russia the Russian lands – Ukraine. It's like separating the state of Texas from the US, turning part of the population of Texas against the US, arming and directing against part of the population living in Texas and against the US. The united West represented by the USA and the EU countries again went to war against Russia on the territory of Ukraine. By the hands of Ukronazi militants nurtured in Ukraine. It was the US and the EU that staged a coup in Ukraine in 2014 and put Ukrofascists in power in Ukraine. And the Ukronazis with the support of the EU and the US began to kill dissenting Ukrainians and Russians throughout Ukraine. On the Dnbass, the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Nazi battalions killed civilians from all types of heavy weapons and bombed from the air for 8 years, in Odessa they burned alive more than 50 people of civilians, closing them in the house of Trade Unions. Tens of thousands of civilians died at the hands of the Ukronazis. And Russia finally went to liberate Ukraine from American proxy troops = ukrofascists. Russia will
    win!
