  1. The civilian targeting started in 2014 against Russian areas.
    Defending their areas and their population is a right.
    The more civilians targetted will simply make their resolve stronger.
    Interesting how in ukr only military and supporting industries are in the cross hairs. Anyone that does not see the truth by now will come to a rude awakening in the future.

  2. The recent and present day Putin advantage: ALL THANKS TO COMRADE Marjorie Taylor Green, Matt Gatze, and the other a-hole MAGA crap that held up this desperately needed financial aid package!!

  3. Putin has every right to protect Russian borders against the West
    Zelensky is being used by the West .
    The west wants a weak Russia so they can gain access to Russia's
    resources, cheaply.
    The west is failing to see who the real enemy is:
    China and Islamic extremists
    Time to wake up, West

  4. THEY ARE PEOPLE STILL THERE? UKRAINE IS LOSING THIS WAR. BIDEN AND WASHINGTON MUST NOT LIKE UKRAINE. THERE WILL BE NOTHING LEFT OF UKRAINE.RUSSIA IS STILL GOING TO MARCH ACROSS UKRAINE.

  5. So Ukraine attacked a civilian target,is slow joe now going to deny them weapons? I’m betting he has nothing to say about his family’s sugar daddy country attacking civilians 😂

  6. Trying to get the initiative before the American toy box makes it to the front..Makes me wonder if a US ATACM was what hit the apt building.

  7. Civilians are to not be targeted by anyone we’re giving money to. That’s never truly necessary. I hope it’s not true and that this was not done by Ukraine. 😮

  8. The block is hit from north to south so it can not be Ukraine because Ukraine shoots from south. One can check the location of the block from this coordinate and compare the blue building next to the block to ensure this is the same place 50°33'27.2"N 36°34'44.3"E

  9. Just by the way, this wouldn't be the first time Russia bombed their own apartment complex. They bombed their own apartment complex, blamed Chechnya, then invaded Chechnya. They were eyeing Chechnya for a long time.

  10. Who ever says russia started the war you must be living under a rock😂 american propoganda really has yall gripped up. Do alittle study on what the U.S was doing in Ukraine before russia invaded. U can only poke the bear for so long before he gets tired and bites back.

  11. After I learned that Ukraine has been bombing Russian city with innocent civilians since 2014 and didn’t agree to the Minsk agreement to stop it, I see Ukraine as an aggressor too. And when Zelensky said on air that they will continue to kill Russian people in that city because they are not people for him, I lost all my respect for him. It is actually on YouTube, if you understand Russian/Ukrainian u can watch it. Mb there is English version too. Of course They are both bad, war is wrong. But I’m thankful that Russia is fighting only armed forces, unlike Zelensky that is still killing civilians in Крым.
