Russian Officials Say Ukraine Launched Cross-Border Attack
I feel deeply insulted by sheer oudacity of a complain comming from the agressor, at their victim doing (supposedly!) anything beyond bracing for hits.
If such attitude would progress any further we would have to start appologising violent offenders for their sore fists, shoes damaged from kicking, occasional strained muscle and failing to pay for all that digging they do in the forests…
It was probably just a small military mission! Definitely not an act of war!
As the good book says, “do to others as you would to yourself”
This is exactly the right thing to do. Ukraine needs to destroy Russias infrastructure break the supply lines that allow the Russian attacks against Ukraine.
Wow, are you telling us that these helicopters did not show up on Russia radar systems prior to and after the the attack? Someone has surpassed the alien technology!
GET EM BOYS!!!
No body really care if Ukraine get you Russia because you started it so yeah let’s keep it going lol
Take the fight to their territory Ukraine!! Genius!?
This war is a phken joke. And the joke is on you peep merekanz. Wuh dU think is real — a police action to get rid of endemic corruption, or a Nazi occupation by kipper-head lider? What a joke on u merekan fuls…laughing myself to death at U in the petrol stations!
This a problem how? Oh I forgot. Murdering thousands indiscriminately is supposed to be one sided.
😍😍😍
Good it’s War and Russia deserves it.
Russia win
Joke mann
Like that wood happed
nah it’s a special operation
I bet he was the one that did it to make it look like they did it.

Sorprendente .
You mean because I am invading a country and bombing and shelling their cities they can return fire ? how unfair .
nice
You bombed my country of course I will bombed back..common sense..only master tang from kung pow chosed option B..take the claw in the face and roll over and died..or A dodge the claw and take him out with a spinning back kick…Ukraine closed option A..
Good they deserve it. Hope they go all the way to Moscow!!!
Ukraine harbors a nazi faction dubbed the “Azov” disguising them as a “national guard”
Putin you asked for it.
Go Ukraine
The US has invaded Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, to name a few, to protect from security threats, and those countries were not right on our border. Yet many in the US either do not know the facts of the Russia/Ukraine situation or think the US is the only country with the right to defend against security threats. This conflict happened because NATO has constantly expanded towards Russia’s border since 1991 when the USSR dissolved. Recently, Ukraine insinuated they would also become part of NATO, they have since acknowledged they won’t become part of NATO. They also suggested they might pursue nuclear weapons, and had a significant number of their military near the border of the Donbas. In addition, Ukraine has failed to follow the Minsk agreements. This conflict has been going on since 2014.
It would benefit Americans to try to get the facts of the situation instead of reacting to the hysterical and emotional rhetoric of our government and the corporate owned news and social media.
😂😂😂
“How dare the Ukrainians attack a Oil depot!! They should target maternity wards and children hospitals like real men!” – Putin probably.
RUSSIA, CHINA, INDIA, INDONESIA.. OLD BIG BROTHER, SUPORT RUSSIA FROM INDONESIA 🇮🇩
Job well done Ukraine 🇺🇦
ima keep it 55th they need to bring the fight to russia on hood!
Need to do more of it ! Put one in the middle of Moscow.
Proxy war
SEEEE we told you they would attack us.
Russia doesn’t like attacks across borders? Really?
As they should
That’s a oil depot not an apartment ,now you know the difference
You guys liar so much
America is evil and devil
Good
When Russia fire across the boarder, tons of people die. When Ukraine fire across boarder, no one dies.
And Russia should not complain a word
This needs a MILLION likes
Please help someone Ukraine. There are far fewer people in Ukraine than in Russia. Therefore, it is very difficult for them to fight off a large number of people!
If I were not married with children I would be over there helping!!
Ha! They are surprised? The Russian leaders and their soldiers are a bunch of cowards. Cowards that hide the truth from their own people and make it a 15 year prison sentence to speak against Putin’s war. No honor for Russian soldiers, just disgraceful criminals that should not be allowed to call themselves warriors or soldiers. They would rather execute civilians than stand up to their commanders. Innocent civilians, Women and children in their homes and hospitals, riding bicycles, waking dogs, and trying to follow humanitarian corridors. These are not Russian soldiers, they are Russian Nazis. Their families are forever disgraced to be related to them. These judgements should follow all the way to those building their weapons including but not limited to Mikoyan. Yes accountability should transfer to those supplying the Russians with the technology that is committing these war crimes. It’s their weapons in Russian hands and they are working hard to keep weapons flowing.
It wasn’t an attack the Ukrainian pilots were only training
Ah, dont worry about it. It was just a Ukrainian “Special Air Exercise”. I’m sure Putin will understand.
Look like a CIA Operation to me
# REPENT
JESUS CHRIST IS RETUNING SOON
GET READY
(REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND)!
HAS ANYONE EVER TOLD YOU THE GOSPEL MESSAGE OF JESUS CHRIST?
IF NOT (PLEASE ALLOW) ME TO DO SO:
(HEAR ONE MORE TIME)
JESUS CHRIST DIED ON THE CROSS FOR (OUR SINS) AND HE WAS BURIED AND HE ROSE AGAIN ON THE THIRD DAY
BY FAITH (FAITH MEANS TO BELIEVE IN AND ACCEPT) GOD’S SON JESUS CHRIST AS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR!
ONLY JESUS CHRIST CAN SAVE US!
(REPENT) MEANS YOU TURN AWAY FROM YOUR SINS BY FAITH IN AND TO JESUS CHRIST
AFTER PLACING YOUR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST AND TURNING AWAY FROM YOUR SINS
SALVATION WILL BE YOURS AND ETERNAL LIFE WITH GOD IN HEAVEN WILL AWAIT YOU WHEN YOU LEAVE THIS EARTH!
(READ THE BIBLE JOHN CHAPTER 3 VERSES 16 THROUGH 21 AND) (1ST CORINTHIANS CHAPTER 15 VERSES 1 THROUGH 5 AND ROMANS CHAPTERS 1 THROUGH 12 THE BIBLE)
(ONLY BY THE SHED BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST)
YOUR SINS ARE PAID FOR!
MY SINS ARE PAID FOR!
ALL PEOPLE’S SINS ARE PAID FOR BOUGHT ONLY BY JESUS CHRIST
(BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY THE LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST)!
Russia staged it on purpose. So too make Russian civilization look to the Kremlin’s lies as an innocent country, but the truth. The government is the real Nazi not Ukraine or any other country. They a psychopath. The real Nazi is the Kremlin government
If Ukraine did attack it, can you really blame them? I mean, it’s not as humanitarian as destroying shelters full of civilians, but you have to start somewhere…
Ukrainians with the biggest pairs of balls again
Good take it to the Russians the entire world needs to hit back at Russia with direct combat let these communist know they better stay in their own countrys with that 💩 or deal with the reprisals
No fair!! Time out time out!
Annnnd, who cares.
Almost like the Ukrainian version of the Doolittle raid.
Show them they’re not safe even on their own turf.
Well Done Ukraine…NOW HIT THEM AGAIN!! Show Putin how to HIT MILITARY targets without harming Russian People!! 🇺🇸🇺🇦
No, that’s *not* what they said. They *deny* the attacks and within hours of said attacks, Zelensky declared two top Generals and an unspecified number of senior field commanders as traitors. People better pull the propaganda hose out their throat and wise up to what’s going on.
You blow ours up we blow yours up. Sounds like Russia doesn’t know what it’s like to get fired back on
Good. I hope they launch more strikes.
Good job uk 👍🏼
Russia later finds out it was Russian helicopters that attacked their own oil storage, Russian troops are turning on Putin. Military coup coming soon.
I’d love to watch Zelensky over rule Russia instead that would make a new movie.
Very good.. Need to bomb Moscow too if possible
Wow, that’s terrible they attacked another country…
If you have the stomach
Is Russia really complaining? I’m pretty sure Russia has attacked Ukraine a few times by now.
You crossed their borders long ago wtf is Russia talking about. This is nothing compared to the devastation you have and are still doing to Ukraine.
I hope the world can come together to help Ukraine rebuild.
Yes!
Russia: Hey, those guys are protecting themselves! Can they do that? 😭
World: That’s war, asswipes. 🤷
Drop the nukes Putin. Quit being a wimp
Putin about to go nuclear
Little Russian bitc* crying now.. Don’t provoke/attack someone if you are not ready to face the consequences.
This mentality amazes me. Motha F-er, this is WAR! NOT “we’ll be attacker, and you’re the defender” Theyre allowed to hit back you r^&(*#s..
Glory to Ukraine…from India
“How dare you attack our soil while we are currently destroying yours”
It was Rocket Man 👌🤣👍
so and why are you mad Russia you did same thing
How to stop rocket attacks on your strategic targets? Stop bombing them.
About time
Russia needs to show a firm response to this, perhaps completely flatten Kiev, love from Canada to Russia
Good for them. Take the battle to Putin..
And y’all hating on Ukraine really because they crossed into Russia and bombed Russia they need to do more they need to do more blow up a f****** gas thing they need to start blowing up their civilians like Russia’s doing to theirs man
Russia, just FYI, you started a War and other country fight back, it’s not Attack, its called selfdefense…..
Finally . Hit them mfks
We need Ukraine to hit moscow now yes
Oh no its almost like invading another country opens your own to being invaded WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING.
Good I hope they did on going peace talk putting a bit ch I’m glad they are bombing Russia go Ukraine
Sucks don’t it Russia
Ohhhhh noooo .. Russian got attacked … how dare Ukraine attack people attacking there country… putin is the boy that crys wolf
I mean Good 👍
🤨🤷♂️ why is Russia so confused and shocked that they got attacked one ☝️ time, when Russia has been the ones who’ve been leveling all of Ukraine
It could harm impending peace talks… Fair enough
so u attacking ukraine is allowed and ukraine attacking your soil is wrong?🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ukraine and western allies should NOW bolster all defenses in tge East and south to STOP Putin.
Most powerful weapons MUST BE SENT to Ukraine Immediately to stop this horrific carnage of civilians and children whoe are innocent.
USA, UK, EU and NATO PLEASE PROVIDE Ukraine NOW of all sorts of powerful defensive and OFFENSIVE weapons.
STOP reacting to putin’s blackmails. There is a NEED to SHPW PUTIN that HE MUST STOP or ELSe HIs ENTIRe Army in Ukraine will be decimated.
Russia attacks Ukraine but Ukraine can’t attack Russia… it’s all fair game
