  1. Consider this: long-range hits on airbases successfully disable Russian airforce; what are they going to do once they're left with only their nuclear arsenal to defend themselves?

    What would your country do?

  2. All these investigative reporters with so many awards and not one can tell us why exactly the NATO countries are refusing Ukraine to hit Russian civilian assets with their long range weapons? Is it because the NATO personnel are directly involved in the firing of these weapons?

  3. Ukrainians really think they should have the right to attack Russia but when they are hit back, they cry like babies. I just can’t understand their logic and brain.

  5. Cannot be true. Must be Western propaganda as the West always said Russia had run out of weapons and how Western weapons were superior … This is Western propaganda in reverse.

  9. 🇷🇺'n citizens have gone into food loans at their markets. Six months to pay the 1st and Infinity on the 61st. loan. Next up IOU's……
    Won't be long…..🤔

  14. It is not smart trading punches of drone with opponents who have more of them..and variety of missiles

    It is like Manny Pacquiao vs Mike Tyson… they are the best of its class but..

  17. They didn't stop the russian advance in kharkiv because it wasnt an advance….and vonchask is being heavily hit with air raids…..where do this people get info😅🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

  21. However, this is not the first time; Ukraine has already destroyed all incoming drones and missiles.
    Consequently, Kharkiv is undamaged.

  22. How is that there is always injuries in missile attack and no one gets killed..I think Ukraine is hiding something…If you are in trouble then reach a deal with russia immediately

  27. Kharkiv – Kharkov
    Ukraine – Novorossiya
    temporary name – name

    Time to call places with their right (Russian) name

  29. So you give Zelensky long range missiles targeting Russia by Western weapons, give me a reason why Russia should not use Nuclear weapons?

  30. The mainstream media outlets were applauding Zelensky and Ukrainian Neo Nazis while they were attacking civilians in Kursk. This was a military site which Russia hit with NATO advisors. The US and NATO are to blame for the aggression. Russia has every right to defend itself against US/ NATO Nazis. The US wants more escalation while they murdered thousands of Ukrainians and Russians for the MIC. The US cares nothing about democracy and freedom they want those trillion dollars worth of resources. The mainstream media outlets are an accessory to Zelensky’s and Ukrainian Neo Nazi war crimes as they spread propaganda

  31. Never Forget US troops are fighting alongside Ukrainian Neo Nazis in the leaked documents from Jack Teixeira April 2023
    A 21-year-old US airman will appear in court on Friday in connection with a leak of highly classified military documents about the Ukraine war and other national security issues. The mainstream media outlets seem to forget while they push the lies that Ukrainian Neo Nazis are fighting for our freedom and democracy. The U.S and NATO are the aggressors. Russia has every right to defend itself from US and NATO Nazis
