Here’s what others had to say:
@ken-m7y2w
Never under-estimate the ability of the Ukrainian leadership to burn manpower to temporarily achieve a militarily inconsequential victory in order to gain a small propaganda victory.
@haappy74
The “Ukraine is winning” chorus from Western media and analysts has gone suspiciously quiet. Now even Boris Johnson and Ben Hodges are warning of a very, very cold winter. Funny how “victory” suddenly sounds a lot less convincing when cold reality starts biting. What changed?
@HarryKiralfyBroe
8000 Russian FABs per month – the Ukraine is fading.
@MuckyMucky-z3c
The attrition and poverty of Europe deepens.
@lawrenceH9923
Elections? Russia is kicking the crap outa NATO/EU/Ukraine and the USA!!!!
@vladimirkarphotography
This conflict is killing slowly the EU economy and after, when it ll be time to rebuild the country, EU countries will collapse along with Ukraine.
@thamnosma
It does finally look like the Kremlin is softening up Odessa and will push to Transnistria. This is the only sensible move, no peace deal before that happens.
@tropolite
There’s a HUGE Difference between Ukraine and Russia in terms of elections. Ukraine will target Civilians while trying to register a vote in Russia. Russia would refrain from attacking in regions where voting is being carried out… That’s the difference between – Ukraine are Terrorists, Russia are fighting the Leadership and military.
@Tranzeis
While the Ükraniens making fake stories about Lyman counter offensive and entering another cauldron at behest of the clown president, the front is collapsing everywhere.
@SpatchcockRat
Rostov military airport is full of scrap Soviet era aircraft, mostly Il-18’s and a bunch of scrap helicopters. Cargo planes fly in briefly, unload and fly out. The equipment is then quickly sent to the front lines so the chance of something vital being hit by Ukraine is very small.
@jeromeguin7347
it is amazing the number of new warehouses in Ukraine….the militarization of this contry is absolutely unbelievable ! billions and billions poured in such a poor (corrupted) country….thousand miles of defense lines dug with NATO money…and in the mean time people in europe and the US are deeply affected…
@ronmiler5102
Looks like NATO private military company, Ukraine,is burning well.
@123sourir
Ukraine is winning, they moved very quickly to the west, millions invaded the EU in record time. The EU capitulated.
@stanH234
Zelensky didn’t get the Trump memo to stop hitting refineries due to deisel shortage.
@davidnayda103
The Ukrainians will have many fires to keep them warm this winter. Russia is GREAT!!!!!!
@josephvanwie6706
The Russians dropped a FAB 5000 on a underground NATO base and killed many from the UK and other nations.
@aneurindavies5943
Ukraine has been trapped in a huge cauldron, from which it will be impossible to escape from %.
@Guesthunter
Remember that in this video Blahodatne is marked as firmly in Russian hands. In case you forget it when 2 months later it will be marked as “contested” in hopes that no one notices and no one asks questions how another correction slipped in.
@mladenmatosevic4591
If Russia cuts connection from south to Slovyansk, whole area will be threatened with cauldron.
@aneurindavies5943
Communication, and consumer chaos is increasingly difficult for Kiev, Zelensky, and NATO to resume normal operations, service, and business %.
@HaltdenKopfhoch
Zelenskys pals in the West don’t care at all for the people of Ukraine and wether they might be able to vote! Western leaders would be happy to play dictator like their instrumental Zelensky.
@rexsticker
Why do the Russians not attack the oil depots in Ukraine, which would crash its energy infrastructure? What they are doing now is simply tit-for-tat, which enables Ukraine, supported by NATO, to continue and increase its attacks on Russia. This is crazy, i.e. it serves the interests of the Russian oligarchs, who want a deal with their US counterparts, which is against the interests of the Russian people.
