Ukraine’s military chief has said its forces are doing all they can to hold the line in Kharkiv, but they are facing a ‘difficult situation’ after Russia’s surprise assault on the Kharkiv region began on Friday.

Sky News’ security and defence editor Deborah Haynes has been reporting from the village of Ruski Tyshky, where residents are having to evacuate once again, as Russian troops advance.

  1. So the fault is with the western and delays of ammunitions. Yeah always other people fault. What about mining the camps in the grey area? Or trenches. What about not recruiting in time new troops to defend such a large boarder? The one are fighting has given it all. Honor to them.

  2. Ukraine is a failed state under foreign admin. Ukrainians stole everything from own country over the last 35 years and now are selling their own lives.😊

  3. From WWII, the soviet showed that quantity > quality for long and large scale wars. Why the west never learn? With energy trading, Russia can buy any needed components, chips, machinery, drones, vehicles from China, at unlimited quantity. If Ukraine destroy 10, China will send 100. In fact, the ammunition Russia consumed in the front is less than what they produced. No any chance for the Ukrainians. Sad, but true.

  4. It looks like a mandatory phrase that the propaganda imposes: "quantity (Russia) vs quality (Ukraine/NATO). They repeat this in every interview since 2022… I remember a football match when the commentators from one country said, repeatedly, that the other side is "just more physically bigger, but we are technically and tactically superior. The game ended 4-1 in favor of "less technical" side, which by the way produced spectacular football in their way to victory.

  5. what west expect, that Russia will wake up and give gift to Ukraine? they started conversations many times but Ukraine has left the conversations 3 times. now the war will end by power.

  6. Comedian zlensky led ukrainians to disastrous war for West. The narrative are also being hijacked by West. It's war for West and not Ukrainians.

  7. Well Zelenski built some lines with those latest billions, but not quite exactly the lines that NATO had in mind 😅

  8. And so it begins.

    The Puppet blames the Master for the awful performance.

    But USA have already said to such previous comments. Ukraine are tactically pretty bad and too readily leave their equipment.

    Meaning the USA have many examples of this happening.

    Zelensky forgets that THE USA never admit to anything but will readily dish the dirt on uppity minions….before making them a "Special Operation"…CIA style.

  9. اللهم صل و سلم و بارك على سيدنا محمد و على اله و صحبه اجمعين
    اللهم انصر اخواننا في غزة العزة و الكرامة و اهلنا في اليمن الحبيب فليس لهم ناصر الا انت سبحانك اني كنت من الظالمين
    اللهم استعملنا ولا تستبدلنا يا الله

  10. Zelenskiy and his Western Elite fascist neoNazi sympathizers rejected their ballot box February 2014 anti constitutional coup d'etat for the battlefield and rejected peace at the request of first class British idiot Tory Boris Johnson with the full support of the Labour Party. The two cheeks of the same Tory arse parties.

  11. The Ukraine are to stupid to think they are going to defeat by biging wipins for the west which is not possible, the only their sarvaival well be live with Russian peacefully…

  12. NO ukraine is winning with the delivery of NATO weapons, they are advancing backwards
    NAFO trolls ironically help to build this facade of a house of cards for the UA elites . The real men are suffering and dying in the front more thanks to your lies, NAFO.
