Unfortunately, it's the most likely.

It was the same helicopter model that crashed and killed the Indian CDS. Same crashed in Ukraine and Russia, and also Pakistan, where the Norway and Philippine ambassadors were killed.

I hate helicopters like mad. Crashes too often. There is nothing like Mossad or Israeli involvement. Just an helicopter behaving like an helicopter. *Flying coffins"
Your hate for that nonsense piece of metal don't even come close to mine, especially when it killed Kobe Bryant.

We are all going to die. So if you don't have anything good to say about the dead. Just keep quiet and type nothing.
Imagine someone rejoicing over the death of an elected officer in another country that has no bearing on his life down here. That tells you how callous and inhumane people can be.

That is exactly what I was saying. That thing has a 70 percent probability chance of killing its occupants in a fairly bad weather condition, not to mention under extreme bad weather.

Why don't you post the link to your claims? At least you got it from somehwere.

You lies are only meant for kids not adults with working brain.

2000 building in Mariupol alone or the whole occupied Ukraine?


And let once believe the whole city was leveled like you claimed and Russian built it in 6months cheesy

1.What is the total number of buildings in Mariupol?

2. Does 2000 building equals more than 15 thousands plus buildings in the city?

And please don't bring the USA into it..everything is not about West vs East.
First, the entire city doesn't have to be destroyed before one can termed it "destroyed." Much of the city was destroyed in the wake of the siege.

Ukrainian official claims stated that 95% of the city was destroyed.

UN findings stated that 90% of the buildings were damaged or destroyed.

In terms of the rebuilding, a lot has been done
at short notice considering that Russia is still actively at war. From residential buildings to railways, and a plan for a new airport next year, the rebuilding of Mariupol is on course, but it is still a work in progress.

Putin was surprised.

Note that hugging is not a common practice in traditional Chinese culture.
He hug him because he can't withhold himself from recognizing the leader of the emerging multipolar world order, a superpower who stood up to the western hegemonistic powerplay against all odds.

"90% of all trade between China and Russia is conducted in Ruble or Yuan after ditching the US Dollar"

*Many other countries will gradually join this new system of operation.

Many dollars in the world will become "surplus".

Inflation will be brutal in the US and Europe in a few years and is already very bad.

The bubble, which inflates the West with its huge foreign debts, will burst in a very short time."
So much truth in what he said.

Already, Donald Trump's economic team is planning how to reverse the current systematic death of the Dollar should he win come November.

Things would get worse for that paper if BRICS came up with its currency. It would mark the start of a great global economic reset that would overthrow many of the Western nations' monopolies on trade and financial control mechanisms, reducing if not eradicating their hegemonistic ability to bully, subjugate, and destroy the economies of other nations that refuse to toll their geopolitical lines.

I think Russia has lost up to at least 180k men. Excluding mercenaries.
But US intelligence briefing suggested that Russia's losses are about 10% of its entire military capabilities, which includes manpower. That US report was contrary to what majority of the western media has been claiming.

If we do the math, Russia's active military personnel is put at 1.32 million. Out of this number, it started the SMO with about 250,000 troops. It then partially mobilized 300,000 forces (much of whom are yet to see real combat). For the sake of objectivity, let's assume they're all active.

250,000 + 300,000 = 550,000.

Now, using the US Intelligence briefing:

550,000 × 10 ÷ 100 = 55,000.

So, going by the US military briefing to Congress, it shows that Russia has lost about 55,000 of its regular forces in Ukraine as at April 2024. This figure closely mirrored the figures some other analysts have been putting out in recent times. Even the BBC that lies through its nose have something similar... https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2024/4/17/over-50000-russians-killed-in-ukrainian-meat-grinder-bbc


So, the belief that Russia have lost 200,000 - 300,000 soldiers in Ukraine exist only on the figment of Western media believing bots imagination. Even if you include the losses of the DPR and LPR militia forces to the equation, it's still not up to the amount of 150,000.

Meanwhile, Ukraine that has mobilized more than 6 times says per Zelensky that they have only lost about 31,000 soldiers since the war started.

Clown. cool

If you look at the map, it's obvious that Russia is now opening multiple new fronts against the Uki forces, further stretching them while keeping them confused as to where the major ground attack would come from. This tactics has put the Ukrainian military planners in a state of apprehension and panic as such that they're now evacuating any area the Russians are attacking vehemently.

It's actually how the western presstitude tagged surrender as evacuated when the scenario doesn't suit their narrative. They said that during when the Ukrainian forces in Mariupol surrendered to Russian forces. As the surrendered Ukrainian soldiers were taken away in large buses, the western media said they were being "evacuated".

The scenario of the exercises is the conflict in Eastern Europe between NATO countries and Russia. The exercises analyse and use the experience of fighting in Ukraine, reports The Independent.

"An Apache attack helicopter flies in support of ground troops storming Russian positions. In fierce hand-to-hand combat, a number of fortified trenches are cleared and a counter-attack is repelled with the help of drones and missiles," the British newspaper describes the ongoing NATO exercise.

This is wrong don't spread Misinformation, he served in the Wehrmacht (Nazi Germany Unified Armed Forces) he wasn't Hitler's chief of staff, he was the Acting Chief of General Staff of the Army for a month in 1944 and is thought to have been involved in the attempted assassination of Hitler for which he was arrested but his involvement couldn't be proven.
While he was probably a Nazi the Wehrmacht was a professional army unlike the SS and SD. To call him Hitler's chief of staff is false

You and your habit of talking from both sides of your mouth.

You and your obedience cohort are the first two people I will ever hear describe the Battle of Britain as an "invasion."

Invasion is a very specific term. The Battle of Britain is called several names, including air campaign, air battle, air raid, and so on, but never an invasion.

Even British sources, including the Encyclopedia Britannica does not call it an invasion.

So who are you to categorize it as an invasion?

Educate yourself and stop acting ignorantly. Also, keep the insults away.
