Google is your friend sir. Pro-Russian journalists have already posted all the proof needed, just dedicate a little time and data to search for and watch the video of when the missiles that hit the railway station was launched by the Russian army.


Russia has claimed they don't use Tochka U Missile

And there is also a report where a western Journalist took a photo of the serial number on the missile case and an inventory report that showed it belonged to Ukraine Military.

Only a competent forensic expert can provide substantial evidence.

must be a good mess if less than 100k troups are giving a 600k military plus thousands of nationalist fighters such a hard time.

With the amount of western propaganda in March, one would have thought that the Russians would have retreated and Putin will be in handcuffs grin

It must be a good mess if a weak military like the Ukrainian military is giving the country with the second most powerful military in the world a bloody nose grin

With the amount of hype here on Nairaland, one would have thought the Russians would have captured Kyiv and Zelensky. grin

Some of you said Kyiv will fall within a week and the war wouldn't last more than 2 weeks. It's about 7 weeks now. grin

Putin is only as strong as the willingness of the groups to obey his commands. Internal sabotage has been one of the major problems plaguing the invasion.

If he no like it, make he comot suit enter war front.

True that, only a deep forensic analysis will make the truth undeniable. But you can't just post a random picture from a field and say that's the missile used. Missiles were launched by the Russian military and missiles landed at the train station. You've not seen any video of the missile that landed at the train station yet you want us to believe that it's Ukrainian missiles. A picture of a missile taken in an open field is not a proof that the missile belongs to the Ukrainian army. Let's keep it open sha, as politicians have been known to go to extreme length to sell whatever idea they have.

I wonder how Russia expected to beat Ukraine in their home soil. I have this strong believe that Ukrainian successes in various battles could be traced to using guerilla tactics like ambush, hit-and-run, scorched earth tactics etc
I like the way Ukrainians are using unconventional tactics in this war.
Russia should just sue for peace, call a truce and withdraw their forces else they would continue to suffer more losses.

Does it even need to be said? Russia has nukes, lots of nukes. Nobody is going to bell that cat but that doesn't mean Putin has any chance of making a success of his war in Ukraine.
Honestly I don't understand the success you are talking about. Apart from Mariupol where there are still pockets of Azov fighters, the Russian speaking part of the country has been liberated DPR, LPR. All in less than 2 months.

What is going on there right now is asymmetrical warfare between NATO and Russia. As long as Russia keeps selling oil and gas, they can sustain the battle.

EU has bought $35billion worth oil since Feb 24 when the fight started and they have only donated $1 billion worth of military equipment

I forgot, the EU and USA are in their own cuffs too grin

I can see that you don't have common sense ,Russia is the one making threats that if any country help Ukraine they'll face them , and so far smaller countries has ignored the empty warnings and went ahead to do otherwise whereby waiting for the toothless bulldog to so his worse .

If Russia dare face any Nato country at this time Putin will regret it . Nato is not giving full support to Ukraine simply because it is not a member and you know it . what saddam and other you mentioned were not dealt with because of fighting another country , I don't know why you're using them as your example .

Exactly. Geopolitics isn't 9ja politics. It's all about narrative. We know how Trump government tried to tie the Corona Virus to China and saw the way Chinese turned it around to USA too. We can share our opinion or even sentiment but there is more than meet the eyes underneath

A NINTH Russian colonel has been killed in Ukraine as the country’s armed forces say 19,000 of the invaders have now died.

Colonel Alexander Bespalov was given a funeral back in Russia but many soldiers corpses have been left to rot on the battlefield, to the despair of their mourning relatives.

Bespalov was a tank commander and he becomes the latest senior officer Vladimir Putin’s forces have lost in the disastrous invasion.

His death comes after Ukraine announced it had "eliminated" Colonel Denis Kurilo, commander of the 200th motorised rifle brigade, in fierce fighting outside the country's second city Kharkiv.

Bespalov was commander of the 59th Tank Guards Tank Regiment, Russia’s 74.RU news website reports.

No more details were revealed about the circumstances of his death but pictures show him with a large number of medals.

Throughout the war, video has emerged of large numbers of Russian tanks being obliterated by Ukrainian soldiers using missiles supplied by Britain and other countries.

Earlier this week shocking footage showed bodies of Russian soldiers piled up after they were allegedly ambushed in Sumy, northeastern Ukraine.

Many relatives of dead Russian soldiers have yet to see their bodies returned home.

Vadim Kolodiy's mum Tatyana has not received the body of the 19-year-old, who died after he was trapped in his armoured personnel carrier.

“No one cares about them. How many of these children, husbands, are there? How much pain had this all brought?”

Bespalov’s death comes after at least seven of Putin's generals were wiped out in the country.

In comparison, the Soviet Union lost just five generals during ten years of brutal fighting in Afghanistan in the 1980s.

One of the other senior officers killed was mown down was mown down and killed with a tank by his own men after leading them to huge losses on the battlefield.

Western officials say mutinying troops deliberately crushed their Colonel Yuri Medvedev of the 37th Motor Rifle Brigade.

It comes as it comes as a Kremlin spokesman admitted to "significant losses" of troops.

Vladimir Putin's mouthpiece Dmitry Peskov said the losses were a "huge tragedy" for Russia.

RUSSIA'S SLAIN COMMANDERS
Putin's top brass killed since the invasion of Ukraine:

Major Dmitry Toptun
Major Alexey Osokin
Major General Vitaly Gerasimov
Major General Andrei Kolesnikov
Major General Andrei Sukhovetsky
Colonel Nikolay Ovcharenko
Colonel Sergei Porokhyna
Colonel Sergei Sukharev
Colonel Andrei Zakharov
Colonel Konstantin Zizevsky
General Magomed Tushaev
Colonel Alexei Sharov
Colonel Yuri Medvedev
Colonel Denis Kurilo
Colonel Alexander Bespalov


As well as tank soldiers, large numbers of elite airborne troops have also been killed.

Haunting video shows the pictures of all 55 soldiers from one elite Russian regiment killed in Ukraine lined up on a table.

The pictures of the dead soldiers from the 247th Guards Airborne Regiment include Colonel Konstantin Zizevsky who was killed in the south of Ukraine.


At the end, a long line of photographs can be seen, testament to slaughter faced by Russia's forces and in particular its airborne forces in Ukraine.

Reports are now emerging of mutinies among Russian troops, with even paratroopers among those refusing to fight.


According to Ukrainian estimates, 19000 soldiers have now been killed fighting the Russians.

A senior NATO official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told AP that figure could be as high as 40,000 captured, injured or dead Russian troops.

This has prompted Russian elite paratroopers to stage a mutiny after witnessing their comrades being wiped out in battle, reports claim.

Among them are said to be soldiers from the 247th Guards Airborne Regiment.

They were expecting to see sophisticated military hardware’s, only to be disappointed by the outdated Soviet Union hard scraps.

Russia is just a overhyped shithole. Take away nuclear bombs from them and they just like Kenya or Nigeria.

Even Biafra did not lose the amount of weaponry and soldiers they have lost.

Wheather russia is wining ukrain or not is not the issue.the battomline is dat both counteies have suffered great loss both lifes and economy...it getting to d 3rd month .both countries are losers..russia after 3 months is yet to capture kiev or topple the ukrainian govt...ukrain is unable to join nato after pulling strong resistance to russia...so things stand ae it where before the war started..this war go reach 4 years and borh countries will suffer economically.it will take years for both counteies to recover..the lesson here is dat disputes are not settled with guns rather dialogue all these would have been avoided and other counteies would have still been afraid of russia..but with this act of ukrain other smaller counteies will disregard russia and ask putin to attack them if putin likes cuz ukrain did it..its already a mess..if russians was leading purin wont send additional 60000 troops..Putin is not telling us everything
