Was this rocket attack like when Hilary Clinton came under sniper fire in Bosnia back in 2008?

[chriscarlino]

Now his underwear matches the brown shirts he has been wearing since the war. I never understood that, as if he is actually fighting.

[Beltfedshooters]

Where's the video of said strike from 300 feet away?

[ChuckPalomo]

They hit a special forces naval drone base that Zelensky was visiting to commend the operators that sunk the Russian ship yesterday. Why would they want to kill Zelensky and turn him into a martyr? meanwhile, the SBU carried out another car bomb assassination in Donetsk. So who are the real terrorists?

Sometimes i feel that reporters think the rest of us are deplorables. Russians have one of the best navigation system ( GLONASS) and they proved to us the last two years.

If 2 PMs of countries are meeting, many cameras will be rolling to capture everything, so where is the footage?

[donsims]

🙄 you mean he ACTUALLY WENT HOME AND TOOK A BREAK FROM WORLD WIDE BEGGING TOUR

[joseph]

It was 300 yards in the paper?? maybe tomorrow 30 feet .Does anyone have any good videos?

[joqjtxt]

Putin most certainly is giving the Empire (USA + NATO in this case) a bloody nose. Must be hurtful 💔

[stevelazaridis]

How do you know it is a Russian missile

[cantrun]

bro if it hit 300 feet from you you wouldn't be here.

[stevelazaridis]

Like Greek I wish the prime minister never come back to Athens

[Really-AintBuyn-nit]

Fake. Everything is a bad television show.

Zelenskyy basically led the Russians right to where the Ukraine special forces were preparing the unmanned boats they used to sink several Russian vessels, to which the Russians promptly attacked after Zelenskyy left the area. I hope that photo op was worth it.

[daveandrade]

High time Mr. Z. got to feel what conscripted soldiers feel every day.

[jakemensik]

This was stupid on Zelesnky's part. He literally led them RIGHT THERE.

[nmxnijr]

Fake news - where is the footage? This little guy has a camera on him at all times!!! You’re telling me it hit THAT close but no footage? Please

[chinysukainepyobytt]

Unfortunately they missed him its very sad I really mean it from inside my heart.

[benhaloho]

The message was very clear: They can see and strike Zelensky anywhere and anytime. Of course Russia had to "miss" the strike, you don't publicly assassinate a head of state. It's called courtesy. The message was well received and that's that.

[Gdb]

Yea yeah yeah, that was a warning! Those rockets are very accurate, they’d be turned into particles if those missiles were intended for them.
