This has been happening in Syria, Yemen and Palestine for years but nobody says anything. All wars must stop whether it is against one religion or other

That's what Donbass region had been experiencing since 2014

Putin playbook:

When your military is incompetent, go after unarmed civilians.

They can't fight back.

This has a very strong London 1944-1945 vibe.

Explosions every 10 minutes for last hour, we can hear from the neighbor cities 20 miles away

Iranian drones are said to be being launched in Kiev. It means that Iran is using the war in Ukraine as a field trip for its drones, testing anti-aircraft defense systems. From what we're seeing, Iran has successfully tested the drones and can use them to target Israel's infrastructure whenever they want. Apparently the factories in Iran can make as many drones as they want and in a short amount of time. This could cause a tremendous upheaval in the Middle East.

Ukraine citizens are like Filipinos. The more they are wounded, the angrier they get. You can't destroy Ukraine's morale. Slava Ukraine! You are elite.

Anyone that still watches the BBC news expecting the facts about most things, let alone the war in Ukraine, is beyond hope.

[dandan]

stop calling it kamikaze
these are just remote controlled bomb meant for terror

[paullavallee]

A move straight out of Hitlers playbook

That strike on the Ukrainian public park was a severe military setback. Ukrainian forces lost 1 tree, 4 bushes, 100 sq. ft of grass and an empty water bottle. It could takes months to recover.

Literally one day after Putler said: "we no longer plan to attack Ukraine"

[zacidaxmad]

Where is America and nato air defense systems can’t defend against a small Iranian drones let alone a russia missile😂😂😂😂

[pierredewez]

I suggest to the BBC to make a complete documentary of what happens now in Yemen and how the Houthis are living there. Why don't you speak about what some people call now a genocide made for US by Saudi Arabia. Is this Yemens war pure and for a better world ?

[hookshot]

Didn't Germany in WWII try something similiar against Britain? How did that turn out? Long live Ukriaine.

[justice]

Deep condolences to all mothers, fathers, children and family who lost their lives in this war. Stay strong Ukraine🇺🇦🇺🇦

You know a russian is lying when:
A) His lips are moving
B) His mouth is open
C) He's about to say something
