  1. These are the same aircraft that flew in to British, US and Canada airspace on a regular basis. This caused aircraft to scramble and intercept them. Guess what, Russia can't do that anymore. They just lost their long range.

  2. This doesn’t mean Ukraine can win or has won, they are still losing, and now Russia’s retaliation will be more fierce than before

  3. Mr doglas hope you can still report later to us without bias about the Russian federation killing Ukrainians and trying to destroy their country bla bla bla, mr Trump too haven't said anything about the Ukrainian strike on the Russian federation Air bombers, because when the Russian federation retaliate i hope Trump won't be bais in condemning the Russian federation and Putin

  4. Why does the date in the top left corner of the drone camera say 3-20-2024? Check other vids and you can see it. Also, 40 FPV drones and we get a few camera angles from 1 reconnaissance drone that only shows a few bombers? There should be 41 videos minimum. Also, there’s this……

    Information regarding Ukrainian drone footage from March 20, 2024, is available.

    Ukraine's audacious drone attack sends critical message to Russia – and the West
    BBC
    regional weather climate representative
    "Shadows are formed when an object blocks light, preventing it from reaching a surface. Reflections, on the other hand, are the result of light bouncing off a surface."

  6. Those video clips of the smoke raising from those military airbases looks like Ford Island when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.

  7. Seriously Europe is going to receive a taste of its medicine very soon . Now I believe it is no more Ukraine vs Russia it is more like nato vs USA. Just common sense prevails but Europe is giving more options to Russia to screw other European countries. Interesting to see the next move from Russia

  8. Another report another crazy unconfirmed numbers that have nothing to do with reality. 11 planes hit probably half can be repaired. A well planned operation but certainly not as huge as media tries to spin it.

  9. “Minimal man power” …. Go interview a Ukrainian operating FPV sitting for 7 hours straight, drinking an energy drink every hour without breakfast lunch or dinner. And peeing into a plastic bottle. Minimal man power. Indeed . Sir. 🇺🇦💪🇺🇦

  10. Guess after this provocation, Russia certainly won’t agree to a ceasefire & will continue with the SMO until Ukraine/NATO surrenders to Russia’s stated demands! I.e. no NATO weapons on Ukrainian territory. 🇬🇧🤝🇷🇺
