Russia set for ‘Embarrassment Day’ as Ukraine denies involvement in ‘ridiculous’ Kremlin attack

“Ukraine has more important things to do than to try to assassinate this leader of a terrorist state.”

Russia’s annual Victory Day holiday on 9th May will actually be an “Embarrassment Day” for them for the second year in a row, says Yuriy Sak, advisor to Ukraine’s defence minister.

If Ukraine had the ability to hit a flagpole 800km behind Russian lines twice in 10 minutes they would not be wasting it on hitting flagpoles.

Look how slow that drone was flying - are we supposed to believe it flew 460 Km to deliver a small explosive on a flag?

I’ve been thinking of the 9th as ruzzian corruption day but embarrassment day may be my new favorite 🤩

[NewBeginnings]

That looked more like a firecracker than a drone. 🎉

Ruzzia is fast becoming synonymous with ineptitude and failure and Putler is ruining two countries simultaneously - quite an achievement.

"nah, that is ridiculous" love this guy, good work

[scoobydooo]

This guy is really good, and with a positive attitude like that it's no wonder Ukraine is doing a 'David and Goliath' ....Slava Ukraini..!!

This is the only war in history where a country that has been invaded isn’t allowed to attack the invader beyond its boarders 🤔

Yuriy Sak is the best, I actually thought at first that he was British, he has such a good command of English for a foreign man.

Going that slow, it must have been sent last week. Good job Ukraine has mastered mid-air drone re-fuelling

[matthewwalker]

Yuriy Sak speaks such good English it's mental. For a guy, as far as I can see, who has spent his entire career, whether as a player or in management, in the Soviet and Ukrainian leagues I don't understand how he speaks English even with a bit of a London accent, lol. He's fast becoming a bit of a legend in my book.

Yurij your words are very very true. Impressive. Clear analysis. Stunning.

When the war ends in a complete debacle. Putin: "becoming a chinese colony was always our long term plan"

[SeanDring]

Gives Russia an excuse to reduce parades and limit display of reduced military capability. The parades will show the impact of war, so its best to stop them.

A tiny little drone for a tiny little man

[leoplaate]

What a great guy this is ...! , specialy like the term EMBARRASMENT DAY ...!

We did not attack Putin or Moscow; we fought on our own territory" - President Zelensky denies Russian claim that Ukraine hit the Kremlin in a drone attack.
