Watch: Reporter braves Russian shelling to visit Bakhmut frontline



Alex Rossi from NBC News’ partner Sky News, and his camera operator, dodged incoming Russian artillery to give viewers a close-up look at the fighting around Bakhmut, a city which continuous Russian bombardment has turned into “a vision from a nightmare.”

  1. Z 🇷🇺 🇧🇾 🇨🇳 🇨🇺 🇮🇳 🇿🇦 🇧🇷 🇻🇪 🇦🇪

  2. NYC'S, RUSSIA WILL PREVAIL AGAINST NAZISM AND FASCISM.

  3. Remember, folks, the US news media said Russia is fighting with shovels. So, the Ukrainians lost Bakhmut to guys with shovels. By the way, Bakhmut already fell when this report was made – if you watch mainstream media, you enjoy being a lied-to schmuck.

  4. This war not against Ukrainian, against western powers

  5. It took so long to Russians taking Bakhmut because they try to save lives of their soldiers unlike Ukraine's. This war more and more looks like slaughter of Ukrainians. Ukraine is pushed against Russia by the west that wants them to fight up to the last Ukrainian. However Russia won't stop nor retreat. If it's necessary they would execute second mobilisation and even if Russia is about to loose, it would strike with nukes not Ukraine, but Europe. Then the US would say, "It's not of our business". I don't believe Americans would mess with Russia putting themselves in danger of nuclear destruction.

  6. 🔜Year 2014. The British, France and USA provoked Russia to a war in Ukrainian by killing 14 thousand Russian children, women, and older man in all DONBAS territory. The Ukrainian people are been used by NATO, in a PLANNED PROXY WAR AGAINST RUSSIA. Do the people of Taipei, TAIWAN know they are next to be used by USA-NATO IN a PLANNED PROXY WAR against CHINA? The USA is arming Taiwan to give their Government the allusion they can win a war against China. Think about it. In 2014 NATO, Obama&Biden started the Ukrainian war training 900 thousands military Ukrainians and put lot of weapons including biologic weapons labs in Ukraine with the goal to exterminate the Russian natives as it was intended in China with the COVID19, These give the Ukrainian Government the allusion they could win a war against Russia, most if not all of that 900K are now dead. TAIWAN will suffer the same destiny their island will be destroyed.↩

  7. so exactly five hours later everyone runs away. 😂

  8. They shouldn't have shown the horizon the trenches can be located by the stupid Russians

  9. Zelensky will be very happy if foreign reporters dies. He gets ww3.

  10. I doubt there is nothing more terrifying than russia. Artillery.

  11. If that’s the front line they should just give up. it’s a mile away from the city they’re defending

  12. Is it a coincidence that zelensky left the country right when bakhmut fell? Coup in sight or assassination of zelensky for sacrificing Ukrainians for west. Ukraine needs to lay down arms and surrender. Save the remaining 80% or it will be gone too. West does not care about Ukraine or its people. Their goals are not even closely aligned with Ukrainians.

  13. Um. The Wagner group(musicians) have just conquered Artiomovsk

  14. Who’s here to celebrate the fall of bakhmut 😅

  15. Ukraine lost Bakhmut 🎉

  16. So the frontile is in a forest… outside Bakhmut… Hmmm … Ok

  17. Can somebody explain the Russian strategy to me? What is the purpose of aiming the artillery at the city center civilian buildings? Wouldn't it be better to use artillery against the defensive lines?

  18. Bakhmut has fallen only 12 days away from the longest battle in history

  19. Russians: "Ok no shooting or bombing there's a guy with "PRESS on his vest" Are these war reporters Brave or just plain Stupid?

  20. Its not just the Russians. Ukrainian are also shelling their own cities. Unprofessional Ukrainian civilian guerilla fighters with no military training using deadly western weapons to destroy every thing and killing their own people. This dumb war need to stop. Western media doesn't report on that. Always play the same old song awwww poor Zelenkskyy. That little clown is to blame for everything. After he gets his F16 and Russians destroy them all next Zelenkskyy will ask for even more weapons and probably nukes

  21. Every day it gets more and more like Vietnam.

    Talk to old Vets. This is exactly the same.

  22. There is no military target in Donetsk city. Here hasn’t been for 8 years. Yet Ukraine still bombard it indiscriminately with artillery. I have seen western news cover the amount of deaths caused by Ukraine prior to this war

  23. The Battle of Bakhmut is over and Bakhmut has been Liberated from Ukrainian terror.

    Russia will take all the land east of the river and Odessa.

    Leaving Ukraine to be a small landlocked rump of state.

    Big big mistake by Ukraine.

  24. Sky News is one of the only actually good news stations left.

  25. Responsible / responsibility for extermination and genocide (Holocaust, Holokaust) of the Jews jewish people during the Second World War: Germans from Germany Deatuchland. A country (German Deatuchland) that includes cities such as: Hamburg, Frankfurt or Munich. (Holocaust Business).

  26. The Russians have already taken Bakhmut

  27. Give us a break. Thats Grimsby!

  28. Considering their disregard for war crime laws and desperation to keep a narrative, Russians might have orders to target “PRESS” members first. Be careful!

  29. God Bless Wagner PMC 🇷🇺🐻💪 from USA 🇺🇲 👍💕☮️

  30. Correction of the title: Reporter braves Russian shelling to visit Chasiv Yar frontline…those 15 minutes in forest few km from Bakhmut don't caunt…

  31. These reporters are not needed on front. Drones are better and faster. So stop playing hero.

  32. Ukraine having its karma. NATO beware.

  33. Patrick Lancaster does this everyday .

  34. This weekend PMC Wagner will go to history as the only private company that captured the city and won the battle against the entire army of the West: Ukranians, Poles, Romanians + unlimited ammo, money, equipment, intel from the USA and 44 countries. Just amazing.

  35. Why so far from the structures? Lol report the real situation lol.

  36. Bakhmut/Artiomovsk is on the brink of liberation.

  37. 😂 defenders 😂 defending what is not in there hands?

  38. Nothing brave about the reporter or the story. Ukraine is losing badly but the real losses are perpetrated on US taxpayers

  39. Such a shame what the Kiev regime is doing to its country and people, and the world.

  40. Someone just got stabbed today close to where I live, in Denmark. I think without knowing, that there will be no real frontline in the future, the people act irrationally without the help of anyone leader. The people who got stabbed, are probably hard working honest people, I don't know, escalation is happening all over the nations, people with no leader, no purpose, just their own thoughts to murder someone, they murder. Conflict seemingly isn't isolated to a frontline.

  41. Stop this senseless killing. Ukraine is losing and needs to agree to recognize the Donbass ❤ GOD Bless Everyone
