View edit history A News Ukraine's Ministry of Defence issued a video using the caption "Russian TOS-1A shelling Ukrainian positions near Novomykhailivka, Donetsk region. This is what the largest and most horrific war of the 21st century looks like." The video showed the horrifying moments of Russia's heavy bombardment of the region as the country needed multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) to defend against Russian missiles. #donetsk #ukraine #shelling #anews
Even if he takes the whole of Ukraine today, he has still FAILED WOEFULLY. Because NATO is now closer than ever to Russia's mainland. Finland and Sweden would eventually Join NATO and there is nothing Putin can do about it.
90 days into his Brutal Invasion, Finland and Sweden have submitted forms to Join NATO. Ukraine have applied to join the European Union....
These are Massive Blows and Slaps on Putin's face.... He has failed WOEFULLY.
2 - when did you see me say that Ukraine should join NATO ? ....... show me
Ukraine never needed to Join NATO or even mention the idea of joining NATO if Russia was a responsible senior brother.
Have you heard of the Budapest Memorandum ?
Go and learn about it and you will understand why the United States and the United kingdom are committed to the Security of Ukraine.
Unlike Agbaya Russia that cannot keep to their promise but are planning to grab the lands of other nations.
3 - Have you bothered to find out why NATO was formed ?
Russia shows off Zircon hypersonic cruise missile in test-launch at sea Russia Follow Reuters Published: 28 May ,2022: 12:18 PM GST Updated: 28 May ,2022: 12:29 PM GST Russia successfully test-fired a hypersonic Zircon cruise missile over a distance of about 1,000 kilometer (625 miles), the defense ministry said on Saturday. The missile was fired from the Barents Sea and hit a target in the White Sea, it said. For the latest headlines, follow our Google News channel online or via the app. Video released by the ministry showed the missile being fired from a ship and blazing into the sky on a steep trajectory. President Vladimir Putin has described the Zircon as part of a new generation of unrivalled arms systems. Hypersonic weapons can travel at nine times the speed of sound, and Russia has conducted previous test-launches of the Zircon from warships and submarines in the past year. Russia’s military has suffered heavy losses of men and equipment during its three-month invasion of Ukraine, which it calls a “special operation,” but it has continued to stage high-profile weapons tests to remind the world of its prowess in missile technology. Last month it test-launched a new nuclear-capable intercontinental missile, the Sarmat, capable of carrying 10 or more warheads and striking the United States.

BritishNaija: Ahahahaha, Man how old are you? I cant believe I'm replying you. Typical Nigeria schooled. Look at how you just exposed your Level of literacy; Very low.
You could not even differentiated from animated video (ARMA 3 videogame) Which you posted the link above, from real live video. Tell me Why i should reply a mention from you next time when you could not differentiate between animated videos and real videos?
This shows that most of your arguing are kids, Chai!
BritishNaija: May propaganda not kill you. Former president that was discussing with military personels from a video Well published, that RTv from russian snapped a screen, then captioned it with their propaganda, you went ahead and swallow the hook and the sinker; Man you just got drown.
BritishNaija: You are making me laugh. Russian ran away from capturing Kiev because of the monumental losses they suffered, instead went ahead to concentrate all their forces in Donbass to atleast get a brief of winning to Please their delusional master Putin. Wait till the Negotiation of the long ranger weapons are approved, and see how they start the counter offensive in donbass region.
You need to watch Russia missiles hitting train station rail, bridges, roads airports.
All USA facilities weapons captured most of them Burts.
Nothing from USA will stick long without blowing it up.
DerrickzB: Where are those Ukraine apologists, nsiba BritishNaija opolopoopolonio, But you guys said Ukraine is winning the war!! What’s now happening nau?? Why the retreat?? Shey this is propaganda abi??
Since you say Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are parasites,
Russia should dare touch them and see what would happen.. Putin should Invade those nations. I want to check something...
In the midst of a War where Putin claimed that the expansion of NATO is the main reason why he Invaded Ukraine, Finland and Sweden have applied to join NATO.
Why didn't he Invade and attack Finland and Sweden since he didn't want NATO expansion....
Putin shamelessly came out and told leaders of several nations at the last CSTO meeting that "he does not have a problem with Finland and Sweden joining NATO".
Putin is such a Fiascos Pussy...
Since his attack and defense is now so formidable, he should have attacked Finland and Sweden the moment they decided to Join NATO..
On February 24th when the War started, Putin came out on national TV and said no nation should get involved in the War, if not there would be repercussions....
Poland have been the entry point of massive weapons in Ukraine. Why has Putin not fired one bullet into Poland ?
Putin should have attacked the nations sending weapons to Ukraine since he boasted of repercussions if they interfere.
Since his attack and defense is now formidable, what is he afraid of that he has not attacked Poland ?
I Repeat, this War is not about NATO's expansion.
This War is about Putin's Leadership Capacity.
His Leadership Capacity was been questioned in Russia when thousands of Russian Speaking people where been killed in Ukraine.
On 11 November 2014, the Azov Battalion was officially incorporated into the National Guard of Ukraine. As of late March 2015, after a February ceasefire agreement, the battalion continued to defend Mariupol and fight separatists in Shyrokyne.
Members of the Azov battalion are Guilty of Crimes against Humanity. Some of them were killing Russian speaking population in the Donbas. And These Russian speaking people are their fellow Ukrainians.
So Putin's Leadership Capacity was been questioned. He was now seen as a Leader that had grown soft. So he had to act because failure to do so may lead to a coup or he may be Assassinated.
So Bros, forget about the NATO's expansion brouhaha...... That was a false flag for invasion.
I commented last month about how I see the War ending........... My Opinion.
Ukraine as we know it today would be no more. The Russian speaking people in the East would Join Russia.
Zelensky and his West Loving Troops would join the European Union.
Both sides cannot stay together and to avoid perpetual conflicts, separation is a Solution.
When Zelensky came to Office newly he tried to bring peace to the Donbas region through the Steinmeier Formula (Under the Supervision of France and Germany) but Opposition parties started a Protest and frustrated that move.
If he had successful implemented the Steinmeier Formula, we would not be here today.
I don't support War Crimes or Illegal Invasion by NATO or Russia. That is why I am against Putin's approach.
The Security Council failed to do everything in its power to prevent and end this war.......... Antonio Guterres (United Nations Secretary General)
They are parasite to USA not to Russia trump said it..
Are you better than the pope that said nato moving to Ukraine cause the war.
seunny4lif: Ukraine military took 8 years to built defence system around Donbass region with all the nato weapons yet over 1K Ukraine troops have been captured
it took USA 20 years to train Afghanistan men and it took taliban one day to defeat all the men they trained Infact they all ran away.

The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) said air-defense crews are using the S-300V missile system to help with their "special military operation" to "demilitarize and denazify" the Donbas region.
The Russian military said the anti-ballistic missile system is very effective against both helicopters and aircraft as well as defending against cruise, air-launched and ground-launched missiles, claiming that a battery can control the airspace for miles around.

In other developments, Ukrainian officials said Russian forces have attacked over 40 towns in the eastern Donbas region.
They added that five civilians died, 12 were wounded and 47 civilian sites were destroyed or damaged in the latest attacks.
The death toll from shelling in Ukraine's second-largest city Kharkiv on May 26 has now reached nine people, including a baby.
NEWSWEEK SUBSCRIPTION OFFERS > Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on May 26 that lives are lost in Ukraine every moment the West delays putting more pressure on Russia. He said the Donbas could be left uninhabited by the invasion and accused Russia of carrying out a genocide in the region.
His foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba said Ukraine would not be able to counter the Russian offensive without more heavy weapons.
Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree Wednesday that makes it easier for Ukrainians in occupied areas to become citizens of Russia.
Russia has also done away with the upper age limit for contractual service in its military.
Ukraine has called Russia's offer to lift the blockade of its Black Sea ports in return for the lifting of some sanctions "blackmail".
The blockade has led to shortages in wheat and cooking oil across the world.
Russian troops invaded Ukraine on February 24 in what the Kremlin is still calling a "special military operation." May 27 marks the 93rd day of the campaign.
From February 24 to May 26, the total combat losses of Russian troops stand at around 29,600 personnel, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian military also claims that Russia has lost 1,315 tanks, 3,235 armored fighting vehicles, 617 artillery systems, 201 multiple launch rocket systems, 93 anti-aircraft systems, 206 warplanes, 170 helicopters, 2,225 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, 13 vessels, 502 unmanned aerial vehicles, 47 units of special equipment, and 114 cruise missiles.
Meanwhile, the Russian MoD claims to have destroyed 179 Ukrainian planes and 127 helicopters, 1,019 unmanned aerial vehicles, 323 anti-aircraft missile systems, 3,266 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 433 multiple launch rocket systems, 1,682 field artillery and mortars, as well as 3,190 units of special military vehicles.
