The attack on civilian infrastructure was the deadliest in weeks after Moscow recently increased its strikes on the city. Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Andriy Kostin, said: ‘Russia continues to terrorise Odesa … Local residents, medical and emergency workers are among the victims and injured’.

  1. Russia is fighting against human animals Russia has the right to self defence. Azov battalion is using Ukrainians as human shields.

  2. Ukraine lost the following:
    sources are included in case anyone doubts.
    700,000 soldiers reported missing and the Ukranian military could not find an answer to where they are (The Washington Post)
    almost 20% of land lost (Ukraine map)
    almost 25% of arable land (Ukraininvest)
    14,600,000 million require multisectoral humanitarian assistance (UNHRC)
    3,700,000 are displaced within Ukraine, included with the 14,600,000 who require aid (UNHRC)
    6,500,000 are refugees (UNHRC)
    more than 50,000 amputees (WSJ)
    Ukraine's economy shrunk by 30% (Economist observatory)
    12 Trillion dollars worth of natural resources (DW)
    cost of rebuilding Ukraine is 468 billion (Reuters) other sources claim it'd be 1 Trillion (WeForum)
    10% of Ukranian housing destroyed or damaged (Reuters)
    and yet, some sadly call for Ukraine, to keep fighting, while they sit in the comfort of their homes, typing 'Salava Ukraine!' or 'Keep fighting, Ukraine!' but they're not willing to join the war, it tells us all we need to know about some NATO supporters.

  3. End lies and encourage peace, instead of being in the pockets of the CIA. You have the right and protection by the constitution to tell the truth and yet the guardian tells lies.

  4. Imagine if this chanel were to report attacks on ga san civilians, they would flood its own chanel and out of a job.

  5. I said at the start of this war Never trust America and now here we are America has stopped supplying munitions to Ukraine and NATO countries will follow Americas lead this war will be all but over by mid summer who needs enemies when you have a friend like America.

  6. The strike is a message to Emanuel Macron and French military if they plan to come to Odessa. On a second note, according to Authentic Ukrainian sources, the strike was on military and political personnel who were having meetings in the building.

  7. NATO have said themselves Russias missile attacks have been incredibly (and scary for us) accurate. Something supported by some NATO nation or Ukraine crying about lost officers everytime there is an attack on a 'civilian target' Meanwhile Ukraine actively shell Civilians (with NATO Arty) in Belgorod and the Donbass and the press think that fine. What a messed up bunch of lying nutcases our media are.

  8. Odesa port is not a civilian infrastructure. It's been run by the government with military staffing. More lies from Ukraine and the war criminal zelenski

  9. Today is exactly 10 years since the referendum in Crimea. Then 93% of the inhabitants of Crimea voted for the return of Crimea to Russia.
    Crimea became part of Russia 242 years ago. When there was no USA, no Germany, no Czech Republic, no Slovakia, no Romania, there was no Belgium, no Croatia, no Slovenia, no Finland, and even more so there was no Ukraine…
    And all these countries believe that Crimea should not be Russian. It's funny!
    Sevastopol in Crimea is the most European city. It is here that German, English, French, Turkish, Italian, Romanian cemeteries are located, where those who once doubted that Crimea was Russian rest.
    Happy holidays!

  10. Tell it like it is Mr. Macron. Time for the EU to step in and force the issue right now. Putin dare not attack a NATO country for that will force the USA in and doom his defeat in Ukraine faster.

  11. What do they expect, when Ukraine bonbs regions going through elections to vote for their president.
    If Zelensky believes so much in democracy – why has he cancelled elections in his own country. Oh thats right, he knows he would lose!
    🤨
