  2. RUSSIA IS ONE MAN ARMY , WOULD DESTROY ALL NATO CAURED MEMBERS😊

  3. 🇷🇺🪆🇷🇺🪆🇷🇺🪆🇷🇺🪆🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺

  4. Wagner expects Russia to lose ground significantly in 2-3 months. So many casualties on both sides.

  5. Русские солдаты будут умирать как тараканы

  6. Help the people in the flooded reas all you can………..but do not forget nor stop to throw Russia out of Ukraine – then KEEP TEM OUT

  7. Dees arrgh veyry owld footages!

  8. It's hillarious how you always have to to blur out swasticas and iron crosses on ukrainian tanks, but you manage not to keep at least one every time you do it.

  9. Ukraine Nazi got victory in Bahkmut and Zelensky proud coz all western heroes dies for Ukraine Nazi.

  10. Forget Fentanyl. There is a media copium epidemic.

  11. There is absolutely no sound rationale for either the limiting of Ukraine’s access to advanced offensive conventional weapons nor restrictions on attacking Russian soil.

    Both of the above restrictions are based on irrational fears. One is the fear of nuclear war. Time and time again such fears have been shown to be unreasonable. Throughout all of the major world crises of the last 75 years, no nation has had the collective desire for national suicide that nuclear war would surely entail. The second is the fear of direct NATO involvement in the war. This presupposes Vladimir Putin would attack a NATO country when he obviously doesn’t have the military capacity to subjugate Ukraine. This is irrational.

    What the above policies and restrictions have achieved is forcing the Ukrainian military to fight a limited and unimaginative war. It has forced the Ukrainians to carry out its summer offensive against main lines of Russian defenses and resistance.

    Any first year West Point man or woman could look at the map of Ukraine and Russia and see what should be done. North of the Russian occupied regions of Ukraine lies 250 miles of direct Ukrainian / Russian border. Send the main elements of the Ukrainian army directly into Russia towards Kursk and Voronezh. The bulk of Russian forces are holding in the South in occupied Ukraine. The Ukrainian forces should be able to make rapid progress into Russia proper, either forcing Russia to divert their southern forces north or risk the Ukrainians continuing to drive toward Moscow. Even if the Russians could continue to hold regions of Ukraine and eventually stop the Ukrainian advances into Russia, Ukraine would then be in the enviable negotiating position of swapping Russian territory occupied by Ukrainian military forces for the portions of Ukraine occupied by Russian forces

  12. Getting modern equipments and training from 40 plus countries and still losing to russian shovels. 🤡

  13. It's mighty neighbourly of ukraine to honour their commitment of fighting to the last ukrainian … they are doing a great job and they should be down to their last man in no time at all….

  14. The only thing Russia has been effective at is when they lob missiles into civilian cities, trying to kill women and children. Which they do all the time.

  15. RUSSIA LOST THE WAR AT THE BATTLE OF KYIV JUST LIKE NAZI GERMANY LOST THE WAR AT THE BATTLE OF STALINGRAD. _ THE UKRAINIAN OFFENSIVE IS ABOUT DELIVERING THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE FROM PUTIN AND HIS CRONIES JUST LIKE WORLD WAR TWO IN EUROPE WAS ABOUT DELIVERING THE GERMAN PEOPLE FROM HITLER AND HIS CRONIES.

  16. THE UKRAINIAN PEOPLE WILL LEAD THE RUSSIAN PEOPLE OUT OF THE DARK AGES. _ RUSSIA NEEDS A GREAT DELIVERANCE AND THE UKRAINIANS ARE THE ONES UP TO THE TASK.

  17. Russia's final end is to be a junior partner to the Ukraine. _ In EXODUS it took GOD 40 years for to get "the ways of Egypt" out of the Jewish people and the Jews had Moses & Aaron to help them. _ The Ukrainian people are going to have to spend the most productive years of their lives babysitting 140 million Russians as they go through the same 40 year vetting process that Nazis Germany and Imperial Japan had to go through. [ 1945 + 40 = 1985 ] _ All the positives that the Ukrainian people have as a people suggests that will be successful.

  18. Ukrainians already has lost the battles. How much can you lie? Who pays for this propaganda? The west and europe

  19. Slava Ukraine ✊ Victory to the Ukrainian Warriors and freedom fighters 💪💪🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

  20. Well that didn't work out so well

  21. So Monday was just a test on how NOT to let thousands of UA soldiers die in a single day!? The dam break halted that and now the regroup, But “Russia did it.”

  22. This is the same place that ukraine suffered heavy losses doing recon last month!!!

  23. Russia will defeat the nazis again🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺

  24. shhhhhh the LGBTQ Empire forces got shot up… SHHHHHHHHH whoooosh whooooosh , shhhhhhhhh.

  25. Hows that going??😂😂👍😁

  26. So Ukraine have finally won the war?

  27. Attacks must be made in several small divisions. not straight forward🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

  28. Putin the inhuman and bullish psychopath who is shocked that the little guy Ukraine just hit back!

    We all know that hitting civilian areas is not liberation at all!

    In the beginning, Russian people just ignored the war on Ukraine and aggression by Russia; now when Putin ordered mobilization the Russians realized that the fire has reached their homes, and their families and now they are fleeing, now exodus from Russia is the new norm!

    Stand With Ukraine

    It’s time to save the world by stopping Putin and his allies, or else fire will reach everyone’s home! Every time Putin and Russia mention Wester or the EU as targets of the raging war on Ukraine so if Ukraine losses then someone else will be the next!

    Today no human life was lost in the EU or NATO from this war on Ukraine by Russia, just arms and money being invested but if and when Russia will engage in direct war with the EU or NATO then there will be human life losses too. Right now, Ukrainians are suffering life losses at large be it civilians or their defence force, who knows tomorrow who will be the next?

    If Putin and the Russian militant stop the invasion, then the war ends: but if Ukraine stops defence, then Ukraine ends!

  29. It already started 3 days ago and I'd say the ukrainians have done wonderfully starting their offensive with large loses with no significant gains…. tsk3x

  30. huh? no win for poor and proud urinians? el leopardo no help just burn and go boom?
    so sorry oink oink

  31. Ukraine is in very bad shape. Someone push Zelenskyy for peace talks, instead of listening to his baseless statements about F16, Leopards. More people are dying. If Zelenskyy don’t stop, then he won’t have an army nor country. Western media is simply lying and painting blue despite the fact that Ukraine is suffering heavy casualties.
