Russia launched an invasion with bewildering speed and against a wide range of targets right across Ukraine.
Al Jazeera’s @Andrew Simmons reports from Kyiv, which on Thursday woke up to the invasion.

*Russia 🇷🇺 doesn’t want war but it already took Crimea from Ukraine. Now Russia 🇷🇺 deploys massive troops and refuse to de-escalate by showing aggression invading Ukraine. Russia 🇷🇺 is absolutely doing the opposite of what it says. Love and support to Ukraine* 🇺🇦
Prayers for Ukraine💔
This will be the beginning of the end for putin an egoistic dictator.
*We r Witnessing free Ukraine from international licensed terrorist organisation AKA NATO and their gangsta boss USA | Love and support for our true & old ally Russia 🇷🇺… from India 🇮🇳…*
⚠️⚠️⚠️
First thing I want to say that Russia has a big role in today’s India, Russia was with India when America was with Pakistan at the time of war. Second thing is Russia or any Russian organisation never criticized India whether, American politicians, Individuals and organisations always criticizing India on many topics which ruined India’s image. Today America is showing support to India just because to slow down China, always remember that all the support which America showed to India in last some years is just because China challenged America’s existence as a world’s super power. India’s stance should always be in the direction of favour of India that is it.”
When comparing to USA Russia is trust worthy so far our relation to this country is concerned. Hence not at advisable to interfere into the present burning issue. The blind trust that Ukraine placed on NATO countries almost boomeranged. This same Ukraine voted against India in UN when India Conducted the Pokhran Nuclear Test .Also This Same Ukrain provides weapons to Pakistan..And Russia Was one of the main Country which Sided with India when article 370 was dissolved in kashmir and said that its India’s Internal matter in UN assembly.Let’s see how Ukraine has treated India so far,
– Ukraine has condemned India for 1998 Pokhran Test.
– Ukraine voted in favor of UNSC Resolution 1172 against India.
– Ukraine had called for UNSC meeting after the abrogation of Article 370.
– Ukraine sells military equipment to Pakistan (India’s sworn enemy).
So now west expects India to support Ukraine against Russia?
Zelinsky is cool 🤣🤣🤣
Woke up drunk on strong drugs and said; Ukraine is a strong country, we will fight a neighbor called Russia.
And today we see clearly, how Ukrainians find the ravings of drunken people untrustworthy, and they leave their country, not staying in their country if they believe what Zelinsky says.
And the MOST STUDENT POLICY is to send other countries into the battlefield, and provide their country’s battlefield for anyone who wants to fight against Russia.
Russia fights in the name of protecting its territory and the security of its country, while other countries are ordered by Zelinsky to fight against Russia in what name⁉️ In the name of bored of life⁉️ Want to die⁉️
Or the war on behalf of Zelinsky who has shouted at Russia 😂😂😂
📌 HEALTHY PEOPLE ARE NOT ENOUGH TO BE A COUNTRY LEADER, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT MUST BE sane and NOT CRAZY‼️✔️
Do we have leaders today? No. Just morally bankrupt puppets willing to crack down on their own people if their master demands it.
The pandemic only helped made this fact much more obvious!
Send Putin in one of these tanks , why kill soldiers who have families at home waiting for them
its time to detonate that hidden nuke under kremlin
Maybe it’s time to start talking about the genocide carried out by the ukrainian government for the last 8 years. I wonder how many people are clueless about that (thanks to the US and NATO countries, who supposedly had to be the first to try to stop it, but didn’t).
N sorry for u Ukrainian, n God b wth u, coz nothing america n Europe with NATO will do. Europe fear Russian.
Give Ukraine the ability to take out our aircraft! Just leave the pilots alive that ejekt. Destroy our equipment.
If I weren’t already doing my Jihad in the middle east I would have joined you comrades
Hahaha stupid U ,S ever never come to fight coz that’s not Middlest ,
Russia is best.

Know the world go nuts stop your hypocrisy,when japanese people were nuked and when the middle East was invaded,, when will this false USA be saints to us never,never
The president of Ukraine said his army is working? Well I guess he is lying again.
When Ukraine gave up there nuclear weapons, the United States promised to protect Ukraine. Why hasn’t that been mentioned???
Get your facts straight! The Budapest Memorandum was negotiated at political level, but it is not entirely clear whether the instrument is devoid entirely of legal provisions. It refers to assurances, but it does not impose a legal obligation of military assistance on its parties. According to Stephen MacFarlane, a professor of international relations, “It gives signatories justification if they take action, but it does not force anyone to act in Ukraine.”
In the US, neither the George H. W. Bush administration nor the Clinton administration was prepared to give a military commitment to Ukraine, and they did not believe the US Senate would ratify an international treaty and so the memorandum was adopted in more limited terms.
Invasion or Liberation? 🤔
Creating Taliban as freedom fighter against Russia and then considering them as terrorists the same thing happen with Ukraine .. peace 👍
everything you say is true but one thing is false that everyone is fleeing to poland it is not true 90% of the refugees are in Romania and the Republic of Moldova so tell the truth if you are not silent from yesterday 25,000 Ukrainians have passed in Romania I have not heard for Poland to support refugees, tell the truth what it is like if you don’t keep your mouth shut
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Mr putin has right against his enemies
Someone should help get rid of Russia’s aggression this is sickening
Did you feel sick when your country was doing this to Iraq Afghanistan Syria Libya Somalia and Yemen etc

Algeria has suffered from france crimes even in desert where nucleaires weapen used !!!! shame on france and his general degaul criminal
This invasion is approved by Donald Trump
inshAallah Damesko is relies
Al Jazira, still the best!!!
It isn’t even hard to see why things have come to this point.
Problems in USA today:
1. US dollars creditability crisis due to over printing money. 40% of all US dollars in existence were printed in the last 12 months. This is set to devalue the foreign reserves of all other countries. In recent years many countries have been trying to find alternative currencies in trades.
2. Inflation soared above 7% due to money printing and supply chain issue. The Fed has planned to raise interest rates to lower the inflation, which risks hitting the economy.
3. Nord Stream II: Last year the USA warned that Nord Stream II must be stopped, but it’s completed nevertheless. The crisis in Ukraine is the reaction by the USA. More reliance on Russian energy supply means Europe gets closer to Russia. It’s the best interests of Russia and Europe to be close instead of being divided. The USA allowed a gas pipeline from Russia to Germany passing through Ukraine, but NOT allowed a gas pipeline directly from Russia to Germany. Why? Because then the USA could control the gas supply to Germany via its proxy Ukraine (Ukraine has a government that the USA installed in the color revolution at Maidan in 2014). One of the most important purpose of NATO is to control Europe, as the first NATO Secretary General, Lionel Ismay put it: “To keep America in, to keep Russia out, to keep Germany (Europe) down”. The very reason for NATO’s expansion since 1991.
4. Russia and China are planning to use Euro as the currency for oil trades, threatening the petrol-dollar. America has just 4% of the world’s population and it’s isolated from the Eurasia-Afro supercontinent where 87% people live. The economy in this supercontinent is rising faster than America at a much bigger size, and Euro is a natural and preferred currency of trades here. The America has a long term strategy against Eurasia, as former Americans NSA chief Zbignew Brzezinski put it: “It is IMPERATIVE that no Eurasian challenger emerges capable of dominating Eurasia and thus of also challenging America.”
5. The Military Industrial Complex projects in the Middle East are closing down.
6. Biden’s low support rate heading to mid-term election.
7. Can’t get Russia into a direct war because it is nuclear armed.
If a war broke out in Europe:
1. Euro drops, strengthening dollars.
2. Capitals from Europe move to the USA. Killing two birds with one stone: reduce inflation, stabilize economy.
3. Russia is divided from Europe. The USA’s grip on Europe is maintained.
4. Petrol-dollar life is prolonged, therefore the life of the American Empire.
5. Continuity for the MIC.
6. Putting America in a commanding position in foreign affairs could boost the support rate.
7. A proxy war would place the battlefield outside of America. One in Ukraine, one in Taiwan (against China).
Seven major problems/concerns of America could be solved/mitigated if the war broke out in Ukraine. Not really that hard to see who’s behind the crisis.
Ukraine is never the root of the crisis but rather the consequence. If the crisis in Ukraine ends today, the USA would probably look for another proxy to play the game, Color Revolution in Kazakhstan in Jan for example. Let’s not forget after Euro was introduced in Europe in 1995, the US supported Kosovo’s independence causing the Kosovo War, as a result the Euro plunged 30%.
In geographical terms: The Chess Players (USA vs Russia), the Chess Pieces (European countries), the Chess Board (Ukraine).
Ukraine is just the chess board. Sorry for the ordinary Ukrainian people who would suffer from it.
Impeccable analysis
Last year was Afganistan, this year is Ukraine. So next year will be Taiwan? So now is all depends on their own ppl… God bless them…
P.S: For Taiwanese who watching, be afraid on USA promise from this war.
The 21st Century’s Russophobic Hawkish President !!
People ask why the hawkish president “Volodymyr Zelensky” hasn’t given up yet to prevent more lives from being lost as a result of his continued warmongering actions !
Finally, making millions of people fools has resulted in a large number of people being unable to opt out.!!
What steps have you (UK-US-EU-NATO) taken to protect his mandate?
Putin is an evil entity. He is indwelling with evil.
He will have to answer to GOD for the blood on his hands.
Brave Ukrainian army already destroyed 7 russian planes, 60 tanks, 140 armored vehicles and 450 russian soldiers.
there’s a saying, that Russian is ending a war that has been there for 8 years since 2014.
Long live russia
You arabia countries bow down to USA and you expect Russia to bow down?
I am pretty sure there are more options then invading other countries and bowing down.
@Waldemar Marwalde I hope you explained this to Americans the same things .. after foreign intervention year after year 🤷
@A M As a matter of fact. I did. So what about you. What about you. If you condemn US for invasion and Putin does the same thing. Do you condemn Putin too?
Good job russia we are stand with you 😍🇮🇳🇷🇺🙆🙆🙆
Who took Ukraines nukes
Bla bla
Go russia
That speech sounds like Hitler… Don’t you dare stop us… Well, you’ve got a week. That’s how quickly Denmark and Norway got dropped.
Where I have my sympathy to the civilians of each side, I hope wolrd should not differentiate between race and religion. Palestine under Israel occupation, Iraq, Afghanistan etc hit hard by US and other European countries. No mass destruction weapon found yet countries are still unable to recover.
The world is all about power game. Where US wants his power, other wanted theirs. It is the poor and weak ones to suffer.
All European countries should immediately revoke the work visas of Russians in their countries and expel those people.
Lord please help to make peace. mother mary praye for peace. 🙏 🙏
Please stop war and stop killing.
May the almighty bless all.
Hip Hip Hooray (Гип-гип ура) for Ukraine for it’s peaceful message and cheating it’s own land.
Its easy destroy russia
Stop war😥😥
Russia and Venezuela Will have an alliance if Americca helps Ukraine and Russia is going for the captial of ukraine to take over
Why does NATO want Ukraine and build up their military strength in Russia’s back yard? If you are Russian, would you allow that?
This was yesterdays news!
I’d rather have todays if that’s ok?
Where are the Americans and European countries , this is not Libya or Africa, where are the mafia , show your power because Russia in ation.
I call on all Russian citizens to rise up against Putin’s criminal gang in the Kremlin.
Lol
@Rugged Brother I don’t think you’re as rugged as you pretend to be, I even suspect you’re a born coward. LOL
RUSSIA DESTROYED KYIV’S SUPPLY STORAGE N WHERE DID THE RUSSIAN’S KNOW WHERE THEY KEPT THE SUPPLIES, THE DUMP GAVE THE SECRET 🤐 INFORMATION TO PUTIN 😳💩👿👹
RUSSIA WILL STAND DOWN AFTER DIALOGUE N AFTER THEY DESTROY IMPORTANT PEOPLE, SUCH AS THE MILITARY N IMPORTANT PLACES 😲😬😥
MAYBE UKRAINE WON’T JOIN NATO AFTER ALL 🤔
🙏💗FOR UKRAINE 🇺🇦 N IT’S PEOPLE 🧡
All this because USA tried to convince ukraine to join a meaningless NATO, they conducted military drills near russian borders
I would deal w/the two separatists states being let go at this moment before anymore defeat as it could have served as a bargaining chip before the take over but I also see these two states wanting to be disconnected from the Ukraine title sk Russia lending the force can possibly help Russia later on if these two make something of themselves and Russia has some stomping ground rights into what used to be Ukraine lol I would end any war talks and end furthering casualties
What is the point of the war, this is senseless
Should of signed the Minsk Agreement instead of killing 10,000 Russian separatists in Dombass. Feel sorry for the people in street it’s a political game started by USA and UK London England 💪
America should not sit on the border of russia then this wooild of not occured
Ukraine made a lot of effort to be part of the West (EU, USA,..) and now gets betrayed by the West.
Biden is too old for his job, he invited Putin to do this because he speaks only about sanctions.
Why NATO made/make no Military Manoeuvre in Ukraine, same as some years ago in Lemberg.
So….Russians killing Russians! If we don’t put a stop to this now, soon it will be Chinese killing Chinese even though the emperor of China says they would not do that. Personally, I don’t believe anything that comes out of his mouth. The good Russian people are protesting in the streets and are being arrested in huge numbers for defying the government. Where are they going to put them all? I have a suggestion. Now that a good many of the Uighurs have been brainwashed and re-educated on how to perform slave labour in factories, there is less need to house them in the concentration camps in Xinjiang. Those Uighurs who have been re-educated have been sent out in groups of 100 along with their handlers guaranteeing their complacency to factories all around China where they are housed on site 24/7. This leaves hundreds of thousands of spaces in the re-education centres which can now be used to house Russian citizens who oppose the invasion of the Ukraine. The Russian government can fill up trains and send them to Xinjiang! Wait a minute, haven’t we seen this before. I assumed we were over this already and the world had moved on to be a better place. Obviously, I was wrong. Take a look at the countries causing all the problems. They are dictatorships, ruthless dictatorships. And who in the past created all the havoc in the world? Dictatorships!
When you watch all the Chinese propaganda on YouTube, they are always talking about the US and how there is so much collateral damage during their bombings. There are reporters on the ground in the Ukraine who are clearly filming strikes on hospitals and residential areas. We’ve already seen the blood spattered beds were children died sleeping from shrapnel in residential areas. Sanctions will not work because the emperor has guaranteed his buddy Putin That he will foot the bill for any sanctions which caused them difficulty. Dictators make for strange bedfellows.
I urge both parties to stop fighting. Please do not fight. There is no solution.🙏🙏 my country Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Where’s NATO? Don’t talk rubbish..help Ukraine please
When Russia attacks Ukraine & Georgia it is Invasion.
When US attacks Syria, Iraq, Libya, Vietnam and Afghanistan it is
Liberation 😊
Too much DRAMA on Ukraine while Palestinian people suffered in the hands of zionist israel APARTHEID state and Terrorist but UN is silent! US is depending Israel terrorist! US invaded Afghanistan, Iraq and Somalia and killed Millions of innocent civilians but Europe doesn’t care for!
Actually the whole world is fighting between one another.There is food shortage , disease and poverty everywhere.
War and Killing is not the way to solve the Problem.
The world needs Peace and unity
🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱🇹🇱
Dokt believe USA
Looks like Al Jazeera has become a U.S. propaganda outlet like many others, how can small budget journalists like MAX BLUMENTHAL find such great evidence in Donbas area like “Texas” a Russian ally fighter with evidence of Ukraine atrocities but you with your recourses cannot, UNSUBSCRIBING NOW BYE.
🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
when the USA news claims that Israel has the right to defend them selfs against Palestinia’s,
then Rusia has the right to defend them self too 🤗
Pray for innocent Ukranian public from Turkey! Shame on Europea, USA and other countries that do not show action !!!
I like how Turkey sent soldiers and weapons… wait….
Hopefully RUSSIA wins this war quickly, LONG LIVE RUSSIA!!
Ukrain wins this war
It’s very hypocritical how NATO and eu are condemning Russia while they were quite when Israel massacred Palestinians and US massacred Iraqis and afghans .they themselves killed 11innocent children during their departure from Afghanistan .what a hypocritical world
You need to get your words right. Russia has NOT started a war… Putin has. There is a massive difference between the 144 million Russians who are Russia and the government. This is absolutely NOT in Russian peoples name
The sons of the world, let’s not fight BUT solve our differences on a round table. Through dialogue, we can solve what’s ailing us. Sons of our mothers, stop fighting . Fighting only add more pain to the wound.
Not worse than American invasion to Iraq, but it is close.
Russia Has The Right To Defend Itself
The western leaders will get on this right after there naps and gender studies group and pride parades.
The last part of the clip “shows the helicopter that was shot down”. 😂😂😂 after being shot down the helicopter magically landed on its landing gear. Other parts , have helicopters discharging flares to deter heat seeking missiles. Then they take an old army truck parked at an old hanger and carefully set the truck on fire inside the cabin. 😂 this is complete rubbish and fake news of what’s going on.
The aliens are watching us. Just remember that our petty squabbles mean nothing on an intergalactic scale.
the fact is their president is still a comedian, rest in peace!😴😴
What’s more disgusting is that Ukraine government is run and infiltrated by far right neo Nazis with a ideology to disrupt Europe and split up diversity based on ethnic lines. One of the reason Russia invaded is to bring back true democracy to east European and clear the far right ideological from its ranks that only care about restoring a Aryan race and bring Europe back to diseased way of thinking. How about you do some research on what is really happening and learn some history, instead of yapping with emotional nonsense.
It’s unfortunate that civilians will be killed, but it’s them same civilians that Stood by while the far right Nazis took power in 2014.
Its better what Russia is doing now clearing out a racist ideology from Europe to save the world in the future..
I’m with ukraine and UAE should support then not PUT’IN…
🇺🇦 God bless and God speed 🇺🇦
Fyi,.
@ZelenskyyUa is the president of the nation of Ukraine and Hero of FREEDOM
@KremlinRussia_E is the tiny coward of Russia
@elonmusk is the irrelevant anarchist that supports the domestic terrorist of the @GOP
Use your voice 😏 just saying
Red line from Russia is not to take lightly. When Russia said redline they means it.
