I hope for safety for the people of Ukraine and the surrounding areas. That is devastating

[Drew]

This is absolutely horrific to have the world sit by and watch this atrocity take place in real time, and know that any foreign military intervention is going to start another European war that quickly leads to global conflict.

[ObesePuppies]

It’s so sad to see how the rest of the word (countries) turn their back on a sovereign nation pleading for help. How is this okay in todays day ?

[Anastajia]

Some of the comments in here are downright nasty. I'm assuming most of the ones spouting the insults have never been in a situation like the people in the Ukrain are going through right now. I suggest you do a lot of praying and thank the Lord you are not. God help the people of Ukrain, praying for you.

Jeez, his 53yr old father being sent into battle as a potential reality... Those poor people...
I can't imagine my home being invaded.

[dipster]

And just like that we have another war.
Peace upon Ukraine and their people

[TheStolenBattenberg]

Honestly thought war would be a thing of the past with modern things such as the internet. How can you kill someone you might know?

[bmrigs]

Look out for cyber attacks from Russia if the U.S. involves itself even more to the conflict.

[tacx]

I’m so concerned for my home land but I don’t want live there

[GabGotti]

Putin has been waiting for this his whole life.

1:40 you need to go fight. And not let your dad fight for you.

[ibrahimsarder]

All humanity raise now, But when it was when USA attacked on Iraq, Afghanistan and Israeli attacked on Palestinian

[arnoldmunez]

I can’t believe we still listen to Gavin newsome’s opinion on this…… he probably jumped for joy when he saw it was happening.

[eddyrivera]

To the people of Ukrainia, defend yourself and not only fight for yourself but fight for your children and your children’s children. Fight the oppression That your grandchildren will thank you for your sacrifice. You will not be forgotten

[sahinovic]
