The problems, the leaders never suffers. It's always the innocent people that always do.

"Imagine a king who fights his own battles. Wouldn't that be a sight."

[joannb]

When these things happen I always wonder what kind of sneaky things are happening behind our back as we are paying attention to this

[rustyfox]

I can't imagine being woken up by a siren like that...

[intosound]

Kiss and hug your children, I hope it's over before it starts, the rich decide to go to war, but the poor are the ones who die.

[michelledean]

What a tragedy for the Ukrainian people. I pray for them as they fight for a valued treasure, freedom. Hang in the Ukraine

[VlvtCrp]

2:04 those sirens.. I can’t imagine how much fear those people felt when they heard them..

[levi]

I will never understand 21st century wars and invasions. Iraq war and now this. The men and women in the Ukraine military are forced to defend themselves and the Russian soldiers being deployed. All military personnel in both sides are risking their for something meaningless all because of one man in a very expensive suit says so. smh...

Praying for Ukraine and it's people

[itsjenga]

I wish humans could evolve enough to fight the urge to battle. This is senseless and devastating. :(

[laurac]

Imagine being so entitled that you think you deserve an entire country.

[haydena]

Just hearing those sirens at 2:04 brings tears to my eyes; and I don't cry easily. I pray that I never hear that near me... I can't imagine the tension right now...

[SupertoastGT]

Pretty scary. I hope we aren't getting dragged into a WW3 or Cold War 2 situation.

[joenichols]

My best friend in Cleveland was an immigrant from Ukraine. He told me that everyone is preparing to fight the Russian hordes. Ukrainians will not back down. Bombing didn't work in Stalingrad and it won't work in Kiev

[sekiko]

This is how a world war starts, and I'm afraid of how it will end.

[Jayro]

It's okay. We have a senile President who thinks he can handle Putin.

[terristanley]

Putin must be held accountable for his war crimes!

[therealhushkush]

From what I heard Putin considers Ukraine their family/closest brother yah get what I'm saying. But yet he's willing to go in their and threaten em all to get his way. Disgusting. Our prayers go to you Ukraine. Stay strong💪

[itsmespork]

We’re praying for you, Ukraine. Hang in there 🇺🇦

[spoonsVSforks]

The only ones that truly suffer are the innocent people… prayers to both parties involved not wanting to go to war..

[lukasmurch]

Those beautiful buildings at the beginning (St Sophia Cathedral?)...Russia attacking Ukraine is so sad. Support for the Ukrainian citizens.
