BREAKING: Ukraine launches second incursion in Russia | Philip Ingram
“The Ukrainians are going to try and take over a ‘buffer zone’ inside Russia along its northern boarder. That will probably equate in size to the amount of territory that the Russian’s are holding in Ukraine.’
Ukraine has launched a new attack on Russia’s border in the Belgorod region. Former British military intelligence officer Philip Ingram brings us the latest on this breaking story.

that the Ukrainians did this is incredibly impressive, clearly using all forms of conducting warfare they can, combat, logistical but also politicial; it seems to me the Russians thought these regions safe due to how worried NATO is about escalating the conflict whereas the Ukranians are fighting a war for their very existence as a nation and correctly see these regions are legitimate targets. And certainly With the devasation in the East part of the country caused by Russian military activity, it can surely only be reasonable for Putin to agree to return to the original post Crimea border. The alternative is that we see completely useless loss of life, both Ukranians as as well as useless Russian deaths as well as the West getting to test all their kit against Russian kit for the next year while being able to get rid of old stocks and revitalise NATO military production. There just isn't a situation where Putin comes out on top here; and the most sensible thing he could do is exchange the territories and go home.
The Ukranians clearly have some excellent strategic thinkers in control, coupled with NATO tech and a strong intrinsic culture. Russia has force them to turn from a strong people into a galvanised people, I have nothing but respect for the Ukranians and disdain for the Russian government who caused this useless war, forcing several Afghanistan levels of casualities on their own people.
Going into areas where the natives are Ukrainians and were forced to become Russians.
Ukraine had better stop with war and seek peace, American citizens are fed up spending billions on this false adventurism. We are fed up paying for the entire economy of Ukraine including salaries and pensions. They will not be able to spend any money soon after Putin takes out all Ukraine power, transportations and water systems. Ukraine had better sue for peace now.
Nonsence!
WOW this special military operation is going terrible!….. I bet putin is glad he didn't do anything silly and go to war with another country 😂😂
Sending teoops deep into Russia when at the back there is no fortification is both suicidal and insane.brainless dudes are clapping for this.
Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤😊 !
Zelenski PR exercise to squeeze more money out of the west. 🤔
Ukrain is a zionis syayr
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇬🇧
Total idiots. Each one cheering on their side while not realising both Putin and Zelenskyy are corrupt beings. Neither side is good. It's evil vs evil.
Why do all these ex army guys get everything so wrong .
Stupidity or deliberate misinformation
Many have questioned this move. But its brilliant. putin will not give territory in donetsk and luhansk
back. Even with Ukraine bolstering units in those areas with manpower from the Kursh offensive units Russia would always creep forward.
Ukraine 1. Showed the world they can take the initiative with manuever warfare 2. captured territory, 3. politically embarrassed putin to his people and theworld and 4. put the russians off balance.
well worth it.
Zelensky's suicide mission in Russia sending his troops to poking the bear and end up having their heads bitten off. Bad strategy.
Two words: contact lenses
I wonder what the Russian population are feeling about this situation? Are they telephoning across Russia?
Just mind sounds of battle of the bulge and World War III before the end of Germany the Ukraine is just doing this little thing but it’s mainly just propaganda . like a mosquito attacking a human it’s annoying but we gotta look at it in the contacts sorry I’m not gonna fall for this propaganda the war is over we talk about it this be just a little propaganda thing they did yes they’ve had penetrated and shout a few missiles into Russia but it’s just all like an annoying mosquito nothing major more for publicity and PR. The Ukrainian presidents are his bought his villas the flee to when the wars over
Oh no, either Rostov on the Don will fall or Moscow. Maybe both.
I like the Librarian look. 😋
The idea is to use the Russian territory to force Vladimir Putin to the negotiating table to end the Russia Ukraine war once & for all.
As part of the negotiations it will be Zelenskyy saying to Putin what do you want we keep what we have or you give us or lands back & you give us ours back & pull back completely.
Smart plan put Russia & Vladimir Putin under severe pressure to retreat & sign a legal binding peace deal.
If they could live paralell instead of confronting
Anything with a Russianphobia/Russian Racism psychosis twist and it's guarantee that corrupt propoganda "Times Radio" Russianphobia nutters will create as many news angles as possible as long as it's anti Russian!!
Let's be absolutely clear it's because of the Russianphobia mentality of the corrupt "Times Radio" and their Western Elites over the past decades that has created much Western Elite hatred that has got us in this war situation!! And they are loving it!! They really want it to keep going!! The bastords.
How is Zelenskyy going to hold on to any square inch without receiving any back up man power and supply, once he’s surrounded, all this is symbolic and a desperate move, it’s game over for Ukraine 🇺🇦 😢
Zlenksky recently stated AFU losses at 30,000.
Multiply that number by 20.
If Trump's lips are moving, he's Putin! 😊
Long live Ukraine!
