Ohhhhh noooo govna I bet the russians r scared😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
slava 🎉Eukraine 🎉
Britain's establishment is panicking over Ukraine capitulating.
Russia blessed with Putin, the West with imbeciles.
Kyiv (Kiev) regime change is now inevitable.
Lots of decoy vechials will pay big dividends in the incursion for the Ukrainians.
Respond to the response ,the incursion can be bait.
The Ukrainian armed forces launched an attack on the borderline Kursk Region fearing new losses in the zone of the Russian special military operation, to strengthen positions at the possible peace talks, Ukrainian serviceman identified as Denys told the Financial Times.
"We can fight here and take their territory. And then negotiations can start, and we will have some land of theirs to trade for our land," he was quoted as saying.
According to him, the loss of Ukrainian army’s control over the settlement of Novgorodskoye (Ukrainian name New York), Dzerzhinsk (Ukrainian name Toretsk) and Chasov Yar in the Donetsk People’s Republic was just a matter of time. New York "will be captured, 100 per cent," the British paper quoted him as saying.
According to Defense Ministry updates, Kiev has lost up to 1,610 military personnel, 32 tanks and 23 armored personnel carriers since it launched the cross-border attack.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Monday that Ukraine's armed provocation on the Russian border was intended to slow down the Russian Armed Forces' offensive, but Kiev's hopes are futile. He noted that the pace of liberation of the territories in Donbass and Novorossiya has grown 1.5 times.

What are these clowns thinking pushing RUSSIA to the edge of nuclear war..this wont end well
This may be a come on by Russia to destroy Ukrainian army…lets hope not
Things are now guaranteed to get much worse
First class
Great reporting thanks for keeping a balanced view
Does Dom think this is still a silly idea for Ukraine to launch this incursion?
I would think that keep them guessing is a better overall strategy than getting belted over the head every day????!
Aint no complaints and all russian support until many russians experience the same as innocent ukrainians
Gasprom is still allowed to have franchise gas stations in NY. Why??
It was nothing short of insanity driven by desperation for Ukraine to have, again, invaded Russia. There was no possible way that two brigades with no air cover were going to make substantial gains from their start positions. With this war being the first that's largely driven by ISR, the Russians were immediately aware and quickly responded. So, we can compare this incursion to the 1949 Russian incursion into Finland, which turned into a route. Sure, Russia stepped back, put together a larger force, and obtained its objectives. Ukraine has no possibility of introducing a support force as it's hardly able slowing the Russian onslaught along the entire line of combat. What we most likely can count on now is Russia tossing out any thoughts of peace talks, but moving to take Kharkov, Odessa, and possibly Kiev… All Russian cities. Why not?
Excellent commentary and analysis..MUCH better than anything we can get in the US
What an exciting week. Joe Biden always gets underestimated. I think I understand it from the Europeans. They seem to have fallen for the kremlin's faking polls in USA.

The colours on the new Russian flag are white, white and white.
The dict. told his men not to take prisoners. That's all families there and not soldiers and weapons.
Zelensky got in there, how is he going to get out? 🤔🤔 It's Putin's yard, land and he can do what he wants! 😹
Yes, Zelensky had to ask permission from his puppet Masters what he can or can't do. This isn't a game, it's People's Souls being extinguished. How many Souls were lost at Bachmut??
Listening from London, slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
