Odesa Braces For Russian Invasion

[chuckkottke]

Unbelievable times we live in! I helped out a family that lived many years in Odessa and needed a place to stay after their home caught fire. Odessa is a gem of a city, I hope the invasion never comes, but if it does, may they fight like Giants.🇺🇦🗽🌄

The Courage of Ukrainian are absolutely amazing. Hats off

[MethosTR]

That naval officer commenting on the "fish growing fat from the sunken Russian ships" was oddly funny and foreboding at the same time.

These people are ready to fight like wildcats for their homes and lives. God bless and help them in the days ahead.

[gurhanweyrah]

That Navy officer’s threat was so chilling and funny at the same time

[NebraskaGonvilleJones]

Odessa has always been a magnificent city with historic architecture, beautiful gardens and of course courageous strong people. This is so senseless, the disregard for life and anything that is beautiful in this world is such a tragedy.

Sending love and support to all of Ukraine and anyone in this world that stands for peace and freedom ✊

[serega]

[justinatest]

Everytime I see Ukrainians I am in love. Now I love your Opera House as well.
May it stand as resolutely as the people do.
The world loves Ukraine. The world stands with Ukraine.

Odessa I have often heard described as the most beautiful city in all of Ukraine

As a Briton living in Odessa, Ukraine, it's heart-breaking to see what is happening to my home from home. The support from around the globe is amazing and there is no doubt that Putin (and those who support him) will lose, no matter what. I'm using my music and own YT channel to promote links to charities for anyone willing to support the relief effort during Ukraine's darkest hour. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦

The world is supporting the Ukrainians. We all should be pushing our respective governments to provide more aid, both military and economic, to the Ukrainians. With love from USA.

[edwardsianski]

May the Mother of God - Theotokos - protect Odesa from Putin's aggression. May St Michael and the angels protect the skies over Odesa.

I lived in Odesa for 3 years until March 2020. What is so sad is that Odesa, basically a Russian-speaking city, now views the Russians with nothing but anger and contempt.

[julesoflondontown]

God bless the Ukrainian’s, what an unbelievable inspiring group of courageous people.

[nancyalvarado]

It’s a beautiful country, May God Bless you all, may there be peace

[ampornsrisermbhok]

We will visit Odessa after all the Russian soldiers were kicked out of the land Glory to Ukraine.Shame on Russia.

[Madmen]

If Russia is serious about peace talks they should announce a hold on hostilities.

[jeffperteet]

Very good craftsmanship, you can definitely tell these people know what quality means, as they progress methodically and confidently

[kristinwallace]

The Russians are not capable of an amphibious landing. There is no way they can take Odesa by sea, and as the days pass there is no way they can take it by land either. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦 Lots of beautiful comments here, please make sure to spell Odesa the Ukrainian way, with one S. ❤
