How Russia’s use of glide bombs is impacting the war in Ukraine

In the war in Ukraine, the use of a weapon known as a glide bomb is helping Russia to make new gains. Officials say one of those bombs is responsible for a recent attack on an apartment building in Kharkiv. Russia is now occupying around 20% of Ukraine.

  1. The Russians adapted and used cheap modifications to their old Bombs and made it a GAME CHANGER, now Ukraine is getting smaller and their troops are advancing towards Poland. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

  2. Yeah, ISW stated quite authoritatively that Vuhledar lost its strategic importance tonight and the same fate awaits Pokrovsk, Dnipro, Kiev and Lviv.

  3. More BS from CBS. This building was hit by Zelenskyy anti-aircraft missile as usual. No glide bomb can leave such insignificant damage.

  9. i scrap junk metal sometimes, so my buddy gave me a heavy aluminum car carrier rack is what he said it was but it has a stainless steel and aluminum mount to remove it and the strangest it has a pointy airodynamic tip of hard fiberflass like plastic i really think it doubles as a jdam type part it's so odd…i was thinking of using it for a jetski size boat frame because it's thick heavy aluminum

  11. that'd be one way to lower the cost of specialized parts is if they can double as a civilian use that's more common, for example if the add on was also a "car carrier rack" the sales and higher production rate would probably lower the specialized part manufacture costs …(?) [edit: or pay for it, as a military component ]

  12. This "3 day special operation" in Ukraine has turned into an utter nightmare for putin. putin definitely miscalculated

  14. According to US officials 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  19. All the damage in civilians facilities like apartments buildings, houses, malls, clinics and hospitals are caused by th Ukranian anti air defense systems when they fail to intercept the Russian missiles. Te only apartments buildings, houses, malls, clinics and hospitals that the Russian Federation destroy are those that are used by the ukranian military forces to hide, to storage weapons or ammo or like a command centers.
