#NBCNews #Ukraine #Russia
LOL yA OK.. WHATEVER Ukraine says the opposite is probably true,,
We all know by now that the ukriane lies 105%
the 2nd most corrupt country in Europe? they would never…
Well done Russia 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🦾 keep destroying those terrorists
It is only a counter offensive if we win- Ukraine. I am offended by this counter offensive trick.
“They did not cause us ANY losses”. Now that is misinformation.
Facts😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣those russians also liers
Disney, you’re a news network “SHHHHHHHHHH” I get that this network doesnt really care about the war but you were warned not to report on it. Yall just fear mongering and dont care about the war.
Ukraine’s military is the finest probing force. Ukraine’s military is a JOKE on the world stage. MOTHER RUSSIA RISING
Slava Russia uraaa
Ukraine: silent 🤫
Western media : Counter offensive start soon 😂😂
So the Ukrainians are winning ? 😂
Im even seeing the spread of misinformation in the comments here. Lol its sticks out like a sore thumb.
ahhh yes,the ol “russssian misinformation” line making the rounds again lol.
The Ukrainian population must be getting pretty sick of being used as cannon fodder for NATO
Video archive of latest abc videos are pride flag protests, gun violence protests, woman shot, and pellet gun.
Looks like we have misinformation too.
so much for “shhhh”
this is a very stupid and immature reaction from UA.
either stick to your guns and keep shut, or any sort of reaction that you’re not able to hold back will serve as indication of what is going on the next time that you’re not able to hold yourself back.
The West might have to send more of their soldiers into the Ukraine battlefield soon. Ukraine has depleted it’s manpower.
Otherwise we are going to see a grand Russia Summer offensive which will upset the whole Europe.
We the people should know that Ukraine is INVINCIBLE! They been winning this war since day one. Russians are incompetent, disorganized and stupid. That is why they occupy 20% of Ukraine. And the combined efforts of US led NATO supported Ukraine has NOT been able to evict them.. Sarcasm intended…
lol already failed not misinformation
dont trust western media ^_^
Lol. Of course everyone is lying. When Russia claimed that it destroyed a patriot battery, Ukraine claimed that it is not true and the batteries are safe and fine. But the USA denies both claims from Russia and Ukraine and said that the batteries are damaged and being repaired. Russia can lie to gain support from the its people while Ukraine can lie to protect its image of competence in handling expensive advanced transferred weapons. As of now, it’s only the USA government that i can trust about what’s going on the ground.
You talk about silence now after months of making videos of readiness
Ukraine said “they did not cause us any loses”. No loses??? There is a video. Are they saying it is a fake video?? Come on.
@bob charleslet him alone, if the media would tell him Ukraine conquered Moscow he would be all over the comments saying moscow is conquered. 🤣
@Sightline how do you fake a video of tanks being destroyed
@R.G. It doesn’t look fake or anything but you can easily fake a video like this and make it look completely real. Not to mention you can use footage from somewhere else. I do think it is real though but you should be aware that any video or picture can be faked these days, its not even that hard especially when its poor quality like the video is. I feel like you are very naive to say what you said.
@Rich bob you can tell when something is off the videos I saw were clear and confirmed by many people that I saw on YouTube
“Probably AI generated! LOL.” That’s what the western coping idiots would say
Russia has lied so many times and in such preposterous ways I can’t give any merit to what they say.
🤫
NBC is great at misinformation!
Ukraine is planning counter-counter-offensive
Does anyone with a brain still believe a single word the Russians spin? Sis. They are lying devils.
I do. They have been far more truthful then the west has been.
Didn’t Ukraine put out a video about keeping completely silent? How are we supposed to know when they have started if they want complete silence? 😂😂
So the footage showing Ukrainains getting blown up is fake ?
If it’s a misinformation, then why ukraine asking for more money, weapon, and training?
Ukraine is loosing terribly on the battlefield.
Let Ukraine come, we go other place in west as the same concepts likely middle east sometime ago.
Stop giving money to Ukraine. It’s the most corrupt country in Europe.
Best money ever spent.
@Jean-Philippe Martel yep straight to Zelensky’s bank account.
@Jonel “Bondying” Nuezca Evil people like you need to be defeated, no matter the price.
Just nuk Ukraine now!
Monster.
Imagine your “counter”offensive fails soo hard you need to cry faul at the enemy obliterating your forces.
One more day of denazification of Ukraine.
See people, if you elect a clown and you get a circus as a government
Russian MoD new update dropped: They say they have destroyed a Death Star and 3 Zerg Hives.
It failed, so it did not happen. It is not the offensive they are talking about. It’s another one.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRUMP HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT DAY. TRUMP 2024 😏✊
Know doubt who’s winning the propaganda war ,the only thing the comedian is good at ..oh and fleecing the American tax payer
Making a joke of the russian army and putin.
Lol after bakhmut i think kiev clowns shouldnt bring up misinformation…
In other News Russia announces Putin wins the Nobel Peace Prize & a Russian cosmonaut lands and Mars
Russia points with this that a Ukrainian offensive will do them even more damage and that this is only the beginning of what Russia is able to do. The more Ukraine plans to attack Russia’s territory, the worse it will be for Ukraine and NATO. ukraine really has a problem with this
Add Ukraine to NATO. Russia will either cease fire or announce war. Unlikely russia would continue raging war
If you want to live in a place thats lies and false news, exist, mis information and the authorities dont mind their citizens, go to china, russia, north korea, syria, cuba, this are the place for you, and goodluck
Investing in crypto now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you’ll be ecstatic with the decision you made today.
Am so happy, I earn $15,000 a week. GOD bless Steve A Korducki, his has been a blessing to my family..
I love how western media can not “independently verify” any Russian claims yet they report as fact everything Ukraine says.
I thought after Iraq that the media had decided not to just follow the governments line. I was very naive. I don’t ever again wanna hear about how autocracies and dictatorships keep information from their people. The media today never investigated the pipeline explosion and barely covered the intelligence release. Both of those would be huge stories any other time. Now they are basically acting as “Pentagon TV”. NBC should be labeled as state tv until they start doing their job
Comedian president comic offensive like a musk to the flame 🔥 🙄
Spring no summer offensive, no shush
ONE LONELY STAR 🌟 TAKE A BOW
Russians always lie! For God’s sake from Budapest onwards!
Nice shell account bro.
Russia akan tetap menang ….buka jalur nuklir tracking air to air anti nuke dan buat rapid nuke program
ofcorse ukraine never lose any troop, theyre immortal, no counteroffensive happen if no result
chill out dude, the news is just as bad on both sides and neither side ever tell the truth. Have you just discovered the mass media or something? All news sites are the same regardless of if its about a war or anything else. One side here is 100% pro Ukrainian propaganda and the other side is 100% Russian propaganda. Both are pure BS.
“It’s not a counteroffensive yet until the ukrins have gained ground”
-fake news western media.
It’s a payback for what Western governments have done and continue to do in Muslim countries, particularly Arab countries. This is seen as a result of their support for LGBTQ+, it’s a curse.
3 18 000 ukerenian soldiers are killed brutally 😢😢😢😢😢 and zeleski puppet of nato and America is crying and shouting
The only attacks Russia has been successful at are missile attacks against civilians in cities. So this is not hard to believe.
Always so easy to pick the bots out. Even ukrainian supporters arent this unhinged..
Thomas
In Ukraine even children use weapons, I don’t see why they should get to keep their “civilians ” status when bear weapons and fighting, Ukraine is Russia middle east and they need to be civilized, mind your own business and we can get peace much faster
Need to whole world Vietnam japan iraq iran china and arab African countries come together and start war against America and Nato countries 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉its revenge time. Japan don’t forget Hiroshima and Nagasika. Vietnam never forget Project Orange.😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Ukrainians lie. Thats what they do…
Ukraine is not stupid send self to the mouth of russia bear.
Artilery bombards russia illegal defenses in ukraine.
Plus interspersed with guerrila attacks invaders, powerful Destroying invaders logistical support.
ukraine should aviod sacrifice, make Ruissa soldiers are panic , hopeless and war weariness. god bless hero ukraine.
Russia never use misinformation. Russia is truth the scarlet star.
If want correct information and trustworthy source it should be from the official Russia government site and Russia media.
Bakhmut was of great strategic importance according to Ukraine and the western media until it was taken by the Russian Federation troops, then it became of little strategic value.
@joecare to elaborate and tell us how exactly??
@joe whinging
Guys he put /s to indicate sarcasm he doesn’t actually think Ukraine is winning
🇷🇺❤️❤️❤️❤️
Western hypocrites gotta have their morale up for the misguided war they started.
April: Ukraine, start your counter-offensive!
Ukraine: It is raining!
May: How about now?
Ukraine: We need more time…
June: Now?
Ukraine: Shhhhhhhhhh
THat ShhhhshSSHhhhhhhs is wholesome
Liezensky is a comedian and an actor, he only cares about his own self. He definitely is a good dancer though! Putin has given his life to Russia and the people. People need to wake up, actors should have no place in running countries or in politics!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Misinformation, one of the greatest weapons of war.
No losses? the fields are littered with abandoned tanks a other vehicles.
Don’t watch the news if you want the truth …….
Literally Ukraine is getting smoked it’s all over the internet.😂😂
Ukraine never admits anyting all you got to do is look at the results……..
I am expecting Ukraine to conduct a blizt attack into Russia like Germany did in WWII but it seems Ukraine won’t be able to pull it off. Where are those Leopard tanks given by NATO ? The Leopard tanks should easily break into any Russia defense lines but why it does not happen ?
No air support. A number seem to have been taken out by a combination of anti-tank missiles, drone-spotted artillery, and Alligator helicopters.
They can only easily break into your mother’s hole
I’m lost word on how AFU have a pledge to make a promotional video for their counteroffensive operation, it’s such a facepalming move compared to what Allies do prior to D-Day operations.
A lot of Ukrainian soldiers died las 5 days without even reaching first line of defence (a lot of videos). Of course they want the silence.
Almost feel sorry for Zelensky realizing he was used qnd his country is full of dead people 😢
He wasn’t used, he knew exactly what he was doing, he was bought by US for this exact purpose.
Impactful and regrettable video shows dozens of fearless and courageous Ukrainian vehicles being destroyed in a perimeter of 200 meters due to lack of strategy. How long will the uniformed comedian send young people on suicide missions?
Russias military is third world
Ukraine’s counteroffensive has failed
Ukraine is failing 😂😂
Funny how some in the West think about Russia and Ukraine?
I don’t trust Ukrainian news anymore than I understand the bizarre statement by Putin asking the difference between Cromwell and Stalin.
Cromwell viewed the Catholic Church as the AntiChrist and set out a Holy War against it as though he was a modern Joshua?
Stalin on the other hand had no experience in government, his religion was murder and was a bank robber, not a politician?
So why would Putin choose Stalin as more interesting than Alexander the 2nd, who was an ally and role model for Abraham Lincoln, inspiring the American version of slave emancipation modeled after the Serbian initiative in Russia?
If Stalin had not taken power, Chinese Nationalists would likely have benefited from the continued closer projected Russian and American alliance?
Yes, Alexander the 2nd was an aristocrat, in his 30s, speaking 4 languages, plotting the freedom of slaves while nurturing economic security for all?
Stalin was a common criminal who murdered millions (Nigel Cawthorne documented)?
War educates no population as well as prosperity, and while the West revels in political senseless dramas, the Chinese have taken a page out of the Eisenhower playbook and are building an interstate system in Africa while the West squanders the opportunities?
Is Mr Putin that naive, or does he want us to forget Alexander the 2nd?
The modern USA owes its survival from its civil war thanks to Alexander the 2nd of Russia?
You can always starve animosity with praise.
🇷🇺💪
NATO will not stop this war but will stop future wars, could that be the one after total nuclear annihilation 😂😂😂😂😂
So all those videos of Ukrainian convoys being destroyed are fake? For some unknown reason I dont believe Ukraine
ZZZ
The UkroNAZI/NATO terrorists failed bigly
Shhhh….
Once again zalensky in denial to get more Americans tax money. Americans are not in support of funding zalensky. Report that . Cut Ukraine funding. Zalenskys vogue wife can hold a bake sale to buy jets.
So trust the Ukrainians then….lolol….I don’t think so
🇷🇺🇷🇺❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️✌️
UA is lossing big time , they lost over 100 tanks last 5 days.
Where is Budanov ?
how to know it really failed?
if msm reacts immediately and reports its misinfo
lol.
It’s CLEARLY a DESTROYED leopards and Bradleys taken by landmines and artillery
Zelensky decided to fill up the front line with the corpses of Ukrainian soldiers and made a show out of the war
Ukranian foreign minister got some weight during the war lol
So even when you clearly see the destruction of tanks and APCs they saying it’s a lie 😆 😂 man they tryna make us feel like we blind although we see it
So many Leopards blown up 😅
come on, even german weekly battle reports from 1945 were more believable…
West media are killing Ukrainians telling them that they can win .
West media is war machine and there is no news network in west
This just in: Russia claimed to have destroyed the United Federation of Planets. More at five.
😂 PUTIN PEOPLE GET YOUR 👪 AND 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🇺🇦 COMING IS 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
Multiple videos and images burning bradleys and leopards…
