Well sky news just started its bias again bringing in this professor to analyse things which is good to report as is Ukrainians thats is on advantage…he was not around the last few months when Russia was winning in the east side😂😂😂
Good to see the Ukrainians have abandoned the US Vietnam strategy
How is Ukraine able to launch an attack if they don't have enough troops to defend. They must be lying that this is a Urainian push but a NATO push.
The Ukrainians just want their land back and Russia out . The sooner Russians see what Putin has done the sooner he’ll be gone .When the war is over an Russians see the destruction he has caused hopefully they’ll think differently.
So…. a new world.
Officially annex this new territory as part of Ukraine and so it will be (using russian logic).
I am cinvinced that this operation was planned by the the British and some SAS dare devils, mercenaries are included, but none of these participants are coming back home alive.
This fellow Clark is a charlatan.
The outcome of this adventure – Ukraine losses its quality troops for no strategic or tactical gains. Nice PR stunt… while the east front is colapsing as dominoes. Hitler learn the hard way. So will NATO.
UKRAINE NEEDS TO HOLD A PRESS CONFERENCE TO SAY THIS AREA IS NOW OFFICIAL UKRAINE TERRITORITY!!!
Putin is looking pasty….getting old. Won't live forever…then the regime change will happen.
Hell,the Ukrainians can't hold the area.
Fools mission
It's not an invasion…it's simply a minor special military operation…that's all.
Godwyn point reached prior to starting the video congratz.
Why can't Ukraine realize that they have been used as proxy to fight Russia.
Young men are not allowed to leave the country and forced to fight what is not their will.
The person who filmed the destroyed Russian column has been arrested by the Russian FSB for spreading false evidence.
Even though it's obviously true the Russian government denies it has happened.
No, it was some guy from China, on Damanskiy island
The west is giving Ukraine weapons and I think that if Ukraine does not make advances the west might turn around and ask Ukraine to make a peace settlement. or the west will stop sending weapons for a lost cause.
Ukraine is trying to make Russia move troops to counter the Ukraine invasion and Ukraine make advances where the Russain's have move out some of their troops
The retaliation from Russia will be huge, genocidal war criminal Zelenskyy has signed two peace deals with Putin but he is a puppet for America and told to ripped them up by Biden and then again by American puppet Johnson.
Ukraine cannot win this war, Putin could stop this war in a day by bombing Kiev but it has historic connections to Russia and all Putin wants is for Ukraine to remain neutral as promised by the WarsawPact treaty and to stop the genocide of the pro Russian Ukrainian Jews who have been persecuted y Ukraine in the Donbas region since Obama’s war crime from his funded coup in 2014. The Democrat government and war criminals NATO want to destroy Russia by installing nuclear missile bases on Russia’s border.
America has military bases in the WarsawPact countries that they promised Gorbachev would never happen. Gorbachev stated if either America or Russia steps one foot into these neutral countries there will be war.
America has over 880 military bases around the world and Russia has 29 so who is the aggressor.
Foolish move by the Ukrainians for publicity points. Elsewhere in the Donbass, the Ukrainians are being destroyed.
Operation Barbarossa the largest invasion in history. 3 million troops sent into the Soviet Union.
Obviously it didn't work out for Hitler. The attack by Ukraine will have no real significance in this war as Russia holds a much stronger position.
Facts matter, China invaded in 1969. Before anyone chips in about "undeclared war" , so is this conflict, the Ukrainians are also closing in on a critical power plant for the Russian economy
My history is a little hazy, so what happened the last guy who invaded Russia that the Professor mentioned?
Ukraines' got special forces now
Yes.. Prof. Clarrke, after Hitler, NATO followed the attempts to invade Russia
Alabado sea el Señor. Todos mis problemas han sido resueltos. Imagínese pagar una deuda de 15.000 dólares. Dios bendiga a la Sra. Angela Naomi Jones le estaré eternamente agradecida🇺🇸🇺🇸
Slava Ukraine
And What’s about China In 1969 ?
Learn to taste your own medicine.
Lying with good English is a habit of Michael 😂
Ukraine can do this but not protect its own country besides this is not a fight they can win ever
And the second to last person to invade Ukraine was also Hitler…then 80 years later a cheaper ruzzian copy invaded…or tried to invade
China crossed the soviet border after hitler in 1969..
I think so, it’s a provocation. Ukraine wants to make a show of strength, knowing it’s already on its knees. This is provoking a bigger attack from Russia 🤣. Poor souls, they have no idea what might be waiting for them. The response will be harsh for the Ukrainians. This incursion will have devastating long-term effects for Ukraine itself; in the short term, it may seem impressive and interesting to everyone, as if they are doing something, but poor souls.
From bad to worse in Kursk .. and the rest just the usual Himars show. Putin face in last meeting was priceless 🙂
What happens when Russia starts useing its nuclear atomic bomb in Ukraine or maybe even in the Western world
SUPRISE ? I THINK NOT. RUSSIA HAS THE BEST INTELLIGENCE IN THE WORLD. ITS A TRAP.
The last Nation Russia has invaded is Ukraine.
