Massive = Only shows 1 street for a 1.4 million pop city.
I don’t see any building “flattened” as you claim in the description.
its FAULT WITH ukraine president, he thought acting and egoism only works in TV AND Cinemas,, why he cant be flexible with RUSSIA such a big country…………. tears coming by watching the families omg
raqis, Libyans, Syrians, Afghanistans, Yemens are also destroyed… who is responsible for it….
ukraine will be dead country😢
I can say karkiev has strong structural building. I must have to move from bigger cities to country side with my herds. The city is more vulnerable with nuclear.
learn english
Joined nato it’s your fault
they did not join nato!
I’m a carpenter, you can recover and build
but you can’t resurrect a human being who died from the bombs
@Shimmie Katendrecht I’m a carpenter not Jesus the carpenter . I only wished to look to the future , when this madness is finished
Just like Iraqi Syrian city’s so sad
Didn’t you see what you the world did distruction in Afghanistan? Are they not human? Do they not feel pain ? All kind of bombs NATO & US tried there
Afghan people in the leadership of Taliban defeated the entire world God bless Taliban the true representatives of Afghanistan
RUSSIA 🇷🇺 LOVE YOU
Funny that but NATO can do this Iraq Syria Libya
Have you seen BELGRADE? 78 DAYS OF Bombing By NATO and its cruel evidence is right in the centre.
Lets all stand up to war
Sadly there have not been peace in Ukraine the past 8 years, these people did not suffer what the others did in donetsk, until now. This is the sad thruth of how urban conflict looks like, the russians target ukranian forces that are in these streets.
Of course there has been no peace, once a country gets invaded, there cannot be peace
Tell your stupid government to come to agreement, nobody wants America and NATO bombs on their border and why didn’t you tell your government to stop bombing eastern Ukraine where the Russian speakers are, now you see how it feels to be bombarded? You see something that is not good weather it’s from your government or not say something because it can be you next, am sorry for your lose and what you are going through but I think your government, EU, NATO, and the Americans are to be blamed for this. NATO is not a defensive alliance we all have seen what they have done in Bosnia, Syria, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan, Yemen with their help. Am sorry but they lead you people to be be killed. They are only making noise because they know what they have done plus they also known refugees are going to go to their country and they will need to explain to their citizens but they don’t care about you people.
It’s all because Zelinskyy stupidity! Glory RUSSIA! Long live Putin!
Idiot
😂😂😂😂 You all deserve this
Ukrainian PM will make big mistake
1. Join to NATO
2. European Union
For main person
Ukraine PM
Biden
UK – PM
Three danger fellow for all this things happening
God bless you
Why important EU Ukraine PM zelenky
Not important. Ukraine and Ukrainian
Zelenky responsible Ukraine Smash
Remembering palestine , Iraq, libiya, Syria, Afghanistan, kashmir
The US did the same thing to Iraq, Syria , Yemen , Libya , no one because the victim are not white , God don’t sleep.
5th Battle of Kharkov. 1941, 1942, twice in 1943 and now 2022.
Also NATO sad will not get close to Russia but they did
Look what the US did to Libya
It so funny when you english people speak about “lies”. Putin is not an idiot, Russia will for sure help to restore everything back, not like the west. The civilianz though should move as far as they heard for there is a war. And by the way , Putin is a believer, he might pray for all the souls , he definately is not evil , and for sure he waited so long with such war decision, Ukranians should better have taken care off who their leader is. Peace to the victims, but the west isnt really measurable for truth by far.
Nice one 👍 👌 👏 😀 🙌 😄 👍 👌
American, United Kingdom and European countries do this all the time to non European race only for blonde hair blue eyes civilised refugees to be happy until they became what they do best to others.
Помогите беженцам из Украины! Средства на еду и медикаменты! BTC Кошелёк bc1qzfcaadazvknfx8uyu0pzdp8kedcsaw3s94ajz0 Всем огромное спасибо!!!
Help refugees from Ukraine! Money for food and medicine! BTC wallet bc1qzfcaadazvknfx8uyu0pzdp8kedcsaw3s94ajz0 Thank you all!!!
Middle Easterns, Pakistanis, North Africans, they all LOVE Putin and are so happy to see this. They watch civilians be bombed and comment “serves them right” or “they’re just getting what they deserve”. Wow… You can blame Westerners for their lack of interest in your problems, but to actually post comments like that? Only animals would do that
Never again! NEVER AGAIN!
“How Russian president can do this to a city” if Americans given themselves the right to do even worse than this in Iraq and Afghanistan then Putin definitely has the right
Don’t you worry, you are too young to understand now, but you will know the reason one day
Because America is evil that gives Putin justification to be just as evil? Shouldn’t you demand change instead of defending the monsters of Capitalism and Socialism?
@Rick Mont yea, a bunch of paid noise makers and whataboutism, russia killed more 1mil civillians in soviet-afgan war but I see no one complaing
How were seems of IRAQ JUST LIKE THIS WHEN NATO WAS helping IRAQS … HAHAHAH SAME VIEWS.
What was the condition of Iraqis…same?
As EU we have to push ordinary citizens to fight Russia, their brothers, and we will have more cities bombed like this. And if you fell guilty just make a tweet about how bad is Putin
the real threat of nato against russia is responsible for this disaster
The war industry has to end.!!!!!! Leaders without integrity cannot continue.
God is with us. After the storm will come the calm.
The whole world, including the population of Russia, knows that little time remains for Putin in his government.
Why does the US not apply sanctions on Israel occupying Palestine, or on Saudi trying to take Yemen and most of all why did the US take Iraq kill millions of people on preemptive strike.
I understand your frustration with these problems, I will not praise the US, but the issue at hand is not American aggression but Russian aggression
Iraq ,Syria, Libya, Afghanistan ,Palestine and now Ukraine, so sad .I dont know why iam still living in this cruel society and world .
Take a good look Putin! You are a Monster like Hitler!
There is no need to wash a newborn baby every day!!
Remember: no ukranian
It looks like Gaza
Am very sorry Ukraine this what war bring, we pray for peace all over the world like syria, Iraq,Palestine, Mali,yemen etc
All the city officials have to do is throw the Nazis out. Nope. The city officials are Nazis. I hope the Russians stretch their necks in Red Square.
USA and NATO must also be blamed for allowing this to happen to people by design. Ukraine is a proxy war between Russia vs the West. Sadly people always get caught in the middle.. Peace soon.There are wars in other countries as well with help of USA/NATO, so don’t forget.
the russian propaganda machine is still strong I see, what about this, what about that, blame Usa, blame Nato, blame someone, but not Russia that is dropping the bombs and invading.

🙏🙏🙏🙏🇭🇰
❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🇭🇰
Never would have happened under Trump Biden is weak
We are tired with western media propaganda, Nato invaded Iraq 🇮🇶 Syria 🇸🇾 Libya 🇱🇾 Afghanistan 🇦🇫 Palestine 🇵🇸 the list go on. No one talk about it.
I left Kharkiv last week. Been studying there for 5 years. This left me in tears… To think the city that’s been my home for half a decade is nothing but ruins breaks my heart in a thousand pieces. I pray everyday for this war to stop so everyone who loves Ukraine can go back
@t Perhaps because it is their home. would you freely leave your house if some villains set your front door on fire.
Those who stayed, love Ukraine. You clearly left because you don’t love Ukraine.
@t Unfortunately some people are too old and / or sick. My landlady for example is living with her elderly parents. It would be dangerous for them to leave since they’re all fragile. Some people maybe live in places that are still quiet. All my young friends have already left for Poland.
@Josue K sorry, your remark is stupid ! Would you be so brave ? Or maybe the first who would leave the sinking ship ? Even fighting for a place !
@Josue K we love ukraine, your brain is too small for understanding that
The dictator PUTIN and LAVROV and Russia should be ashamed of themselves.
Ahh the new Iraq..
Now it is really getting worse.
The silence from the Russian Orthodox Church is deafening. Hypocrites! Disgusting 🤮
Putin is a killer and a psychopath.
blame your comedian president for letting these happen!
Zelenky is incompetent leader he could have avoided this easily.
Why bioweapon then….you people only believe what you see.
“British lion! I am one of the first Britons to join the war in Ukraine and I was beaten by a guard during horrific interrogations.
An enchanting story from Sun about an Englishman who went to fight in Ukraine. On the very first day, he, along with the “Georgian Legion”, came under attack from the Russian Aerospace Forces near the Gostomel airport, hid in the forest, was caught by the SBU and mistaken for a Russian spy. After that, he was beaten during interrogation to a concussion,
As a result, after all the misadventures, he fled back to Britain through Lvi
I pray there is a massive earthquake in Moscow…
U wanted to take side, now pay the price…..
That remember me the iraquies masavteby usa
😪😬
Putin may be an idiot, but he repeatedly told the world they will not allow hostile pahtological military alliance like NATO to come to Russian doorstep in Ukraine. So what the reporter said in the end is pure lie and propaganda
Wait! Zelansky said Ukraine is winning…
Comedian Zelensky will not surrender until Ukraine becomes a 3rd world country and their is nothing left
Ukraine will never give up, never surrender.
It’s sad and tragic…..but now the rest of the world knows what it felt like for decades in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria and Yemen…War is not fun.
This is what happens when you cosy up with NATO
Her government has failed her
Ya, NATO has done worst destruction in Iraq syria isn’t it. War always bring destruction. Whether it’s NATO in middle East or Russia in Ukraine, both are wrong
We murdered women & children left, right & centre in Iraq, we destroyed the place. Infact the war in Ukraine is nothing compared to the evil we inflicted on the people of Iraq.
They r evil 😁😁 what about usa do in iraq, afganistan?? What about Israel., what are they doing against palaistain?? This Isn’t crime?? Lol…
It will take a decade to recover from just 2 weeks of war.
How long it will take to rebuild…
Looks like Mosul
Adolph Putin the killer nazicommunist
Could someone help me with the name of the street in the beginning of the video? And the name of the metro station in the end? I’m trying to use this video to show my propaganda brainwashed family in Russia what’s really happening. I managed to identify the church – Храм Святих Жінок-Мироносиць (РПЦ Московського патріархату) – but struggling to find the street. Thanks so much for your help!
Putin. 👍….20 Min. MONIKA
So does palestine, iraq, syria, libya, afghanistan.
When I compare this with Iraq ,Afghanistan and Yemen this looks like a posh part of the city
BS. You weren’t in ANY of those places. You have zero context for comparison.
@Dana H My country Yugoslavia was illegally bombed by America about which no one has a problem, no one shed tears, so yes, I was not there but I know exactly what I say since I was bombed. This Ukrainian-American propaganda is very familiar to me, a lot of lies and exaggerations spiced with a bunch of fake news.
This is Baghdad?
Yes vladdy I don’t like apartments either!!!!
I don’t defend russia what it did is inhumane but so that no more civilians die, accept russia now and don’t beg europe for support because they just take political steps and never help
Same happened in Iraq but world decided to watched it silently
There was no area bombing of civilian cities in Iraq. 90% of Mariopol has been destroyed. At the end of the Iraq war less than 2% of the total area of Baghdad was damaged.
Russians need to do something about Putin.
Very sad…It reminds me of Iraq invasion where cities were bombed and mothers/children killed by neocolonialists
