A bunch of videos grabbed from Telegram : https://t.me/rybar, https://t.me/donbassinsider, "УБЕЖИЩЕ 18+" channel on Telegram, https://t.me/r_chp
DonbassInsider is actually a french cunt (https://fr.linkedin.com/in/christelleneant) forwarding fake news for Russia!!
wuff
Fuck Putin, the guy is a cunt.
ApacheStache
I am so sad for Ukraine. These actions by Putin are utterly evil.
Rendova
History on repeat.
cluelesscookie
Fuck putin with a brick to the face. Fucking delusional piece of shit that should be rotting in the ground in an unmarked grave. Fuck him!
ApacheStache
Putin is evil. This whole thing in Ukraine is just so sad and infuriating.

Those russian Cunts
ObliqueRay
Russia makes its inability to understand democracy everyone's problem once again.
echonite
I think they understand it just fine, and the powers that be don't want the people to have it.
SansAandAnguS
I hope the world unites to push back the Russians. If they keep getting away with violence and aggression they'll just keep doing it.

This is bad. This is really bad. And there's nothing I can do but wish everyone stays safe.

Polls say that, because of Putin's misinformation machine, 50% of Russians are supporting this right now.
sirfanciesadrought
I was watching RT spread their propaganda.

And probably 40% of Americans

they have to or they go to the gulag

Someone somewhere is watching someone they love die on social media.

I can't figure out what the endgame plan is here, and its bothering me.
grandestoptimist
Remove any chance of Ukraine becoming part of NATO, install puppet regime.

And now, images of Russian tanks rolling over a civilian car...

Feralkyn
Holy FUCK I thought you meant actually crushing it. That poor bastard trying to open his door after like "dude!"
jamesythe3rd
I am a pacifist by nature but have always feared with this despot that the only answer is strong unified opposition using all means.
FrolickingFrolicking
Pacifism is good but I personally believe it doesn’t in a world of heavily militarized tyrants and dictators. Also history of enslavement.
ScienceDiscoverer
This proves that humans are extremely primitive as of now... To allow wars to exist at all...
stlouiscardinalsfan7
So is their goal to just destroy these cities so they can take them over and then instal their own politicians in these cities?
stlouiscardinalsfan7
Install***
stlouiscardinalsfan7
And if so, what does this accomplish? You just have more land? Prevent them from becoming a NATO member? I don’t get the tactic here.
zglonx
Regain the Russian Empire aka USSR
stlouiscardinalsfan7
Guess I just don’t understand dictators. I don’t get why it’s so important to control everything.
freshthrowaway1138
You should look up some articles about this because it's longer than 140 characters can define.
inconspicuousbiss
Does anybody know what they are targeting?
seckzie
Everything related to airforce and AA. When/if they control the sky, they will start airstriking other ukrainian military.
ApacheStache
Putin claims to be targeting certain defense/military targets. No idea if he's going to be targeting civilian/political opponents, etc.
sirfanciesadrought
This. And also he said he will be capturing certain political opponents and deal with them. Not sure what stage of plan that is.
ApacheStache
There is definitely going to be a lot of collateral death and damage. This is infuriating.
dragonofthesouth
So like, do we have initial casualty numbers? Know the war is like 12 hours old but this seems already spicy. Heart with ukraine.
Feralkyn
The year is 2022. War is breaking out in Europe. This guy just called it "spicy."
zglonx
I saw pictures of dead Ukrainian soldiers... but as it was on a ProRussia channel, it could be fake.
MrTay
Ukraine is reporting Russian casualties and holding the advance but that was 40 min ago. Also a hand full of planes and helicopters 1/
MrTay
Shot down. Friend in Ukraine sent me picture of what looks like an engine of a plane but could be a missile.
karateninjazombie
Post it here. The internet will tell you what it is
MrTay
/a/XLUVQdZ here you go
ZergRushKekeke
So far 40 military dead on each side and 8 civilians
PonySlaystation5
Many news sources quote 40+ deaths already.
SpaceYellowRubberDuck
We're at war for 8 years already, please wake up.
dragonofthesouth
I do know that, I meant this active stage of the conflict
zglonx
A video just posted shows the death of a Ukrainian civilian casually riding his bike getting hit by a mortar shell
zglonx
the videos (CCTV of the explosion just near the cyclist and the aftermath with the body) were removed from the telegram channel
Zamphox
39 year old man was riding to work, city is Uman, source: I'm from south of Ukraine, we had that broadcast on TV
overunderwhelmed
What is telegram? Moreover, can posts/videos from it be trusted as credible?
zglonx
No more than anywhere else... But you can look for different vanguard points to understand
overunderwhelmed
Ah yes. Right. And uh, what are vanguard points again? Trying to educate my dumb friend here
Feralkyn
He meant vantage
zglonx
haha. You can find different angles from a same event. And read comments. And follow links to real media for confirmation or the opposite.
overunderwhelmed
Oh ok, that’s pretty straightforward. Thanks for answering my dumb questions re: how not to get duped by ole bag-o-dicks Putin
Feralkyn
Vantage points!!
zglonx
indeed.... but Im only frenchy speaky englishy
Argon18
Yeah, it sucks to wake up to missile strikes on my town...
zipfel73m
holy shit! fuck that! be safe dude!
zglonx
Good luck, stay safe
displacedgothamist
Oh honey, big big hugs. I wish there was something more I could do besides send my hope you and yours stay safe.
StrangerNum1
There is always more to do. See what is in your power like take down your local government
displacedgothamist
So more war with war? My local government is fine.
PutItInNeutral
hippy80
Better than not waking up to missle strikes. Stay Safe, and keep your head down.
jatene
Are you ok? Are you and your family able to leave?
Argon18
Yes, I'm in central Ukraine, pretty far from the borders. Though had a few strikes nearby and military arsenal explosion
TheBigKahuna
We stand with you, destroy russia , i hope it collapses further and dies
Sayagain
This sounds thoughts and prayers with extra words
Janiporo
I can not even imagine that. I hope putin does not live too long. Hold on, and stay safe!
obv10us
Another asshole will pop-up like always unfortunately
pastramionrye
It’s already been too long for that asshole.
ApacheStache
Stay safe, man. I'm so sad about this. Putin is evil.
akadenk
YouTube media coverage isn’t showing any of this!
bluemyles
Given Russia's disinformation efforts, mainstream networks are being really careful with getting verification and context before showing.
akadenk
Sounds reasonable- I retract my comment. Though casting doubt on anything makes everything suspect. Welcome to 1984
idmt
YouTube media coverage? Lmao
Bigbadteddy
No media coverage is showing any of this as far as I have seen
ThePunishersVengefulBrother
https://www.np">npr.org/">https://www.npr.org/ https://www.reuters.com/ Both feature Ukraine heavily on front page. Also https://www.bbc.com/news
sirfanciesadrought
Nah, mate. I've seen at least 10 of these videos on CNN & Al Jazeera.
akadenk
Follow the second comment to the feeds on telegram.
theironmonkey81
How about good old Faux News? I’m sure they’ve denounced this.
sirfanciesadrought
Dude, they were praising Trump for praising Putin.
GrumpyOldMillennial
No but they are absolutely blaming Biden for it. Apparently he didn't wag his finger sternly enough at the crazy KGB dictator.
FlyingScot
It’s actually on there

Freakbeatagogo
Makes you wonder, if we could fast forward 3 years and look back, are we watching the first days of a major war in Europe or something else?
Gestalt7
Are we taking wagers on who gets to be the new Archduke Ferdinand?
temotodochi
It's now 2025 and it's only escalating.
MrHailstone
Seeing the progress they made since the early morning i dont think this war will last last more then a couple of days.
RoyalOss
It will turn into guerilla tactics after a few days
zglonx
I guess we can tight our butts....
Freakbeatagogo
Can't see any good way out of this tbh - let the butt-clenching begin......
zglonx
Neither do I especially when Putin warns about "something we never saw in Europe"...
ciscoxing626
It won't last 3 years and in this one we all die unless someone in that crazy bastards inner circle does the world a favor
DorianBlack
Sadly best case is either a few weeks or the potential to be a war of containment type thing where it melts down into a Syria situation
SprinklesMckitten
Putin knows its not what you take but what you can keep. Everything he does in Ukraine will be gains he can hold long term
prodmerc
What gains? More useless land? Other countries already realized that people are the greatest resource, everything else can be bought/made.
SprinklesMckitten
Crimea was a major industrial region and secured ports to black sea. Since he got away with that, round 2 to get more
GozerTheGozerian
I don't see other countries getting involved martially to avoid a possible WW3 scanario, so likely be via proxy, so Cold War 2.0 Remake.
Feralkyn
AKA Syria.
theschnubbeldidupp
That depends on if russia will try to invade the baltic states as well or not. It sure looks bad today though.
zylex
What are the odds they will not? Us 3 also have predominantly Russian speaking regions in each. They could play simmilar tricks with us...
prodmerc
I couldn't believe they would invade Ukraine right up until today, so...
theeighthcolour
Regardless of if NATO gets involved I think this will be the biggest war in Europe since the 40s.
MrHailstone
Nato isbt going to get involved. Only if russia decides to attack a memberstate which would be moronic
Ikusame
Yes, Europe vs Russia and ???
BukkakeRider3000
Jugoslavian war was probably bigger, but we'll see how this expands. Things are not looking good for us Finns.
VIVALa404
Why aren't Finland and Sweden a part of NATO?
tghood
no. neutrality has it benefits.
hirosjimma
Hope you and sweden get fast tracked into NATO. For your sake
CPTNNemo
You are probably right. If NATO gets involved then we probably have WW3. Ukraine wasn't part of it and Putler knows it
sirfanciesadrought
Yeah. I think both NATO & Putin know it will be WW3 if they come face to face. Sadly, we just have to let Russia defeat Ukrainian forces.
catsandtardis
To what end?
sirfanciesadrought
Idk mate. But if NATO forces entered Ukraine & fought on their alongside Ukrainian forces, Russia will most likely go the nuclear route.
mentallychallengeaccepted
To ask ourself the same question when russia takes a baltic country or other former ussr.
gytgud
If? They already r involved.
theeighthcolour
Not directly, only through aid (mil and civil).
gytgud
Thank you.
INeedMoreGifMeMoreJustOneMore
How are they involved? NATO isn't counterattacking or anything. They stationed more troops in neighboring countries, that's it.
gytgud
Dear Lord. You think NATO is only limited to military means?
INeedMoreGifMeMoreJustOneMore
NATO is LITERALLY a military alliance. They can definitely give aid to member States when they're threatened, but yes, in the end: MILITARY.
Ikusame
"A major war in Europe" Russia lacks allies that can actually fight. Its bad, but I'm tired of all the WW3 fear mongering.
CNChapeL
So does Ukraine I'm afraid
prodmerc
Seeing as he's using Hitler's tactics... Nazi Germany did it on their own. Their European allies were a joke, just like Russia's lol
Sharkbiscuit
What they do have is a way of making sure nobody can win. Enough deterent for others to help Ukraine
Admineral
China is capable
Ikusame
Of what? They have no sea nor air power.
fruitybootyhole
https://youtu.be/WuFayKQ3CTA
fruitybootyhole
They have alot of ships out there. They're cheaper and less advanced but their naval ships and carriers outnumber ours. not to mention -
fruitybootyhole
All of their fishing vessels that could be hiding military functions. Although china only claims to have about 3k trawlers, studies estimate
fruitybootyhole
I don't mean to fear monger but I think there's good reason to be concerned about the possibility and impacts of a new world war. See my -

cluelesscookie
A world war isn't by def one block against the world. Its wars all over the place. The response to Russia will determine what China /1
cluelesscookie
Will do in their region for example /2
Ikusame
Easy answer: nothing, because their own military is no where near where it needs to be and they only care about economic interests.
