Here’s what others had to say:
@zani1106
All senior military commanders on NATO’s Military Committee paying a visit to Kiev is a pretty obvious sign that desperation and fear are setting in among the NATO leadership.
@David-IreAus
Putin when asked “what is your favourite day of the year”?
His responce… March 4th.
It took me a minute, but he has a sence of humour….
@dcataj5085
Zelensky: ”I hope that after the war ends, Ukrainians won’t want to kill me”
He still needs to survive until the end of the war, which in his case is already unlikely.
@TreeDweller
Hearing Dima pronounce Verliky-Berluk it’s my birthday present. Remind me of the old days of him talking about vuhledar for a year before it just flat ceased to exist.
@Princip666
“Let’s help Ukraine” – Ukraine gets mauled. “Hey, let’s help Ukraine some more!”
@YHauz-co
Many Russian lives would have been saved if all the bridges were destroyed in 2022.
@Tranzeis
Thin strings of Vivaldi’s violin sprang and slashed the performers face, because he didn’t know how to tune the damn thing!
@johnlivorness2204
Russians are smart, pull back to avoid being over run, then counter attack when the Ukrainians over extend their defence and supply lines. Classical warfare.
@jorgeantonio-wk8lp
You seems have finally been aware of the Russian everywhere tactics. They are not holding territories, they are more interested in destroying the man forces, so they retire and create a cauldron, the bear hug.
@zani1106
A jet-powered drone bearing a portrait of Russian President Vladimir Putin flew through the skies over Kiev today.
The Kiev regime would have not liked that.
@genrcflyer
So the Russians know where the Ukraine positions are when they are advancing but can’t seem to see a concentration of enemy forces just before an Ukraine counterattack that roles through their defense lines. But the Russians see everything!
@malikblake2203
One thing about this map it is the closest accurate map because of geo locations.
@John-ei5uz
In this war you have to defend with men but can attack with drones. That is probably why Russia retreats so easily and then attacks again to retake territory.
@leons.9806
It doesn’t mean anything NATO is just showing their face they put troops on the ground. World War III is on.
@kakabahuh
NATO representatives? Send the drones !!!!! They have no reason to be there. Ukronazia is not a NATO member.
@jmoe2689
So to resume the situation Ukrainians have retaken some villages in a lot of directions due to counter-offensives and they also lost a couple of square meters in others…
Not quite a good result for Mr Puttin’s birthday…we expected better results from the Russian Army.
@nightstorm9128
Since the Ukrainians started there Vivaldi counteroffensive,,They have lost 54 thousand soldiers.
@fredpotgieter7329
Carpet bombing of the three cities. That are on front line. Ukraine will just flee with 3000. Or 2000 Bombing of these cities. They will flee.
@MorsInimicis-m6q
Dima’s definition of a Ukrainian counterattack is about six guys in a pickup who took a wrong turn and accidentally found themselves behind Russian lines, for a military that relies so heavily on PR for public sympathy and foreign funding we never see a shred of evidence of these so called Ukrainian counterattacks!!!
@dennisc.6211
The Russians are using the tactic of defense in depth or elastic defense against the Ukrainians.
Every counterattack of the Ukrainians looks in the begin much impresive by gaining much land in a short time. But the heavy losses taken weakens the attackers to stop the attack and this is when Russia tactics really pay off.
The attackers have to defend the land they have taken, the more land they take the more men it cost to defend these lines wich are becoming overstreched.
The Russians have the resources and the time to take everything back what they lost and the Ukrainians are depleted so they finaly have to retreat.
The Ukrainians counteroffensif are only for pr and to boost moral but at the end the Ukrainians will always loose.
Russia is slowly but steady steamrolling all fortified positions of the Ukrainians.
Ukraine soldiers are very brave and very though but their military command take orders of a madman who doesnt understand tactics but only cares about media optics and making money for himself and his friends.
Thats why Ukraine will lose the war.
@mossig
There is 16 road bridges crossing the Dnipr between these two cities so a complete cut off is not imminent.
@dorustanciu8882
The presence of NATO commanders reveals nothing but desperation and powerlessness! For over four years, day after day, they have been humiliated by the Russian army, which is growing stronger and more capable by the day! They gathered in Kyiv to mourn the dead together!
