Now Ukrainians don't need to take selfies with photos, they have their own burning attractions for selfies.

It’s good to celebrate but don’t cry like a child when Russia will hit back 😅

I'm walking in central Kyiv right now as I'm writing this message and I haven't seen this many people in Kyiv ever, so crowded. Everyone is so happy, thank you Europe & US for helping us make this a reality

This is stupidity, celebrating people who died during explosion

Как дела клоуны что до сих пор радуйтесь?

[patrickfarrell]

As a neutral I found this celebration of 6 innocent lives lost on the bridge extremely disturbing.
There's 2 sides to this story but I can assure you this callous celebration can only bring bad Karma.
