  12. I think its madness using British weapons against Russia one thing for sure any war with NATO England going to get hit hard I just dnt see how we defend against Russia when they try to take our energy infrastructure out

  14. It’s NATO storm shadow missiles. Not Ukraine’s. This war was started by the west, using a Ukrainian Puppet, installed via coup d'état by the west. In order to oust a elected president Putin via coup d'état.
    But it’s not going to work.

  17. 1 person died Russian media claimed… That means high-profile targets was blown to pieces all they can do is deny due to it hurting them.. I'm sure the storm shadow causes putin nightmares.

  22. How many Ukrainians will lose their lives in russias response, is it really worth it, if they join the eu do they think the influx of newcomers into Ukraine will appreciate the sacrifices of the Ukrainians lost in war??????

  25. There was obviously a large explosion. That's all I'm prepared to believe. Where when who and why is speculation from different sources with different actors. I just wish there were no more large explosions.

  27. The Russian landing ship was used to transport and store Iranian shaded drones and other munitions. With the recent Ukrainian downing of multiple Russian modern aircraft and modern air defense system( S-400), it left an opening for the attack flying the old Ukrainian Su-24 fitted with the Storm Shadow missiles.

  38. Jesus is Lord of Russia and the Black Sea, God Loves Putin as he blesses and continue to bless and protect Russia and the victory belongs to God, for his enemies will perish in Jesua's name, Alleluia

  39. It may appear that at least one other ship has been sent to the harbour bottom, a training ship, moored on the adjacent wall. There could also be images of a tender to the floating workshop, moored next the the landing ship, being damaged. 3 sleeping with the fishes. Slava Ukraine…

  40. "Ukraine's defense forces killed about 355,750 Russian invaders between February 24, 2022 and December 27, 2023, including 790 in the past 24 hours."
    Ukrinform… .
    1.4M+ RU casualties thus far:
    1,401,080+ to be exact. …. . . ..
    wia:1,050,810
    (Minusrus)

  42. Technically, UK/US destroyed russian jets and ships. AWAKS plànes and Patriot missiles ! Putin is going for re-election and he will strike back to boost his popularity, just a matter of time ! Will it be via cronies ? Western neo cons are putting all civilians in danger of high tech war with unthinkable outcome !

  44. US UK & EU committed atrocities against Russia did not honour the Minsk agreement pushed NATO on to the borders of Russia killed innocent people on both sides for greed pride and power paid no respect for agreements made, failed to love thy neighbour as thyself, sabotaged the Nord Stream pipeline no one will fool God, He is the Righteous judge, of these evil powers of darkness will not prosper in Jesus name Amen.
    Jesus is Lord of all the earth man is but dust and will turn to dust by escalating a war, Seek PEACE before it's too late
