  1. Let's take a look at Russia. How many cities have been destroyed in Russia? Not just destroyed, but entirely and completely and totally ahniliated. Not a city block remains in some of the Ukrainian towns that were "liberated", what were they liberated from? Standing?

    Now, take a look at Ukraine. How many cities have they given to Russia and how many more will fall and be handed to Putin?

    I don't think either side is winning, but it doesn't feel quite as "close" as western media wants us to believe.. they need Ukraine to "win" by destroying the entire country. Likely so we will not have to pay any of their pensions whenever this war ends (likely when the Presidents who's Corrupt son is working in Ukraines term finally comes to an end…) .. and we can make trillions contracting the "rebuilding" of Ukraine.

    What is so different about Ukraines population, than that of say.. yemen,, or Iraq, why don't we ever rebuild those countries after fighting our proxy wars inside of them? I wonder if it has to do with demographic at all. What is it, less than 1% of the population of Ukraine ISNT white?

    Makes sense that a guy Biden who's from Jim Crow era is going to such extraordinary lengths to show our solidarity with a country that has rhe lowest gdp.. and that no one's ever heard of until his son got his nicest biggest paying job ever there..

  2. they forgot to say that those Western tanks got destroyed in that video

  3. Yo nbc it’s over already! It’s not even Saturday yet!

  4. Push Them Back Ukraine🇺🇦

  5. Tanks in an open field are sitting ducks. This isn't a spring offensive but a summer suicide mission.

  6. Time to make peace …
    It’s never wise to play chicken with nuclear powers …. TODAY they blow up dam’s TOMORROW they will blow up your cities 😮😮 America did you HAD to K my Japanese grand-father from my mum’s side??????

  7. Good content as usual please keep up the good work always appreciate it. Hope everyone has a wonderful day good bye

  8. Stay Careful Ukraine!!

  9. I don’t see Leopard 2s in action, I see a bunch of destroyed Leopard 2s…

  10. Hard watching . They were ambushed by artillery and drones as they were lined up like ducks. 6-8 vehicles damaged. The Leopard 2 lost a track, was towed and has been repaired. Looks like 4 Bradleys destroyed.

  11. Ukraine needs Air Power to have a successful counter offensive. it is the fault of the Western Allies for delaying that strength. Russia controls the sky and Ukraine will suffer the loss of thousands of military personnel and heavy equipment.

  12. i am tired of this idio..s not just say it direct .. of cause it was the pig Russian . stop the crap about who didi it and say it direct.

  13. The NBC provided map in this segment shows Crimea as part of RF, it should of course all be in red as occupied Ukrainian territory. Important distinction.

  14. 🇳🇱♥️🇷🇺

  15. Lindsey Graham says if millions of Americans must die of nuclear radiation along with the Russians it's tax payers money well spent.

  16. Those leopard 2 model 4 tanks were not in the front-lines at all… they were ambushed while moving close to the front-lines, they were traveling bumper to bumper and they got smoked by drones and artillery attack before getting to the action zone. Ukraine make a mistake there and lose several of them. No need for NBC confirmation because happens yesterday and was geolocated and published in Telegram by several sources that confirm the whole thing.

  17. Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh 🤐🤨🤫🤫🤫🤫🫥🫥🫥

  18. May the force be with you!!!

  19. I DO NOT stand with Ukraine.

  20. They are showing clips of Russia blowing up Ukrainian tanks.

  21. Go Russia 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺

  22. Russia already won 💪💪💪🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺

  23. The Ukrainians are giving back to the russians, how nice.

  24. Ukrain launch counter offensive in Mars…Aliens reported

  25. Is this where news sabotaged real.heroism

  26. There will be a counteroffensive as soon as they can track down enough men to fight.

  27. Honestly the main Ukrainian attack hasn't even came yet! Trust me you'll know when it happens!

  28. There is one picture there from an overhead drone that is a bit telling of how one attack was managed using that armor. If Ukraine plans to succeed in pushing out the Russians, they will need to do so by NOT following old Soviet-style military tactics. Russia has been doing that all along and look how far it has gotten them. Distance between units and speed are the key.

  29. Who put this info together? NBC announces the counterattack…but shows a clip of the western supplied weaponry (Leopards and Bradleys) being utterly destroyed?!?!? Even the Ukrainian YouTuber Denys Davydov used this clip to verify Ukraine's loses!!!
