A high-rise apartment block in Kyiv was hit by a devastating missile this morning as fighting continues to rage in the capital, with Ukraine's civilian death toll now standing at 198 following the Russian invasion.Shocking footage recorded nearby shows the weapon flying into the building, located near Zhuliany airport, while CCTV recorded from inside also shows the extent of the damage after the site was hit.Images show the tower block with a hole covering at least five floors blasted into the side and rubble strewn across the street below.

It's like WWII in Europe. The resistance at home in Ukraine is making Putin look really bad.

Pay attention Vlad. The British had a nice leisurely stroll up to Lexington-Concord looking for weapons and powder but the march back to Boston got a little messy. They did find the weapons and powder though .... they were in the hands of every American with a long rifle. Y’all might want to declare victory and skeedadle back to Moscow while you can.

Save the most corrupt country in the world! We must save the Biden family's cash cow at all costs. Don't worry about OUR border, the rapes, the murders, the trafficking, the drugs, the illegal voting... Save Ukraine!!!

Watched the movie "Bitter Harvest" last night. About when the Soviets invaded Ukraine. They ended up killing btwn 7 and 10 million Ukrainians. Can't blame them for not laying down and giving up.

Zelensky, who everyone thought was kind of a joke, is turning out to be a hero.

Zelensky, the President, picks up a gun and leads his people to save their country from the claws of the Soviets. Fight on and stay brave there aren't many leaders who would do this. Putin just might have tug on a tiger's tail he can always withdraw. MUGA

Sounds like a war crime carried out by a megalomaniacal madman to me. Where's James Bond when we really need him?

"Ukraine's armed forces on Saturday morning claimed 3,500 Russians had been killed overnight, and 200 taken prisoner. They said 14 Russian aircraft, eight helicopters, and 102 tanks had been seized."
If even only partly true sounds like Ukraine is getting a few tanks and more AK47s everyday.

This is not going to work out for Putin as he thinks he can go back to the Soviet Republic of the 1970's. Citizens are armed with the internet and cellphones recording his murders. Opposition will grow. Ukrainians should arm every citizen, fight in the fields, in the streets, building to building, and never surrender. Kill the invaders as they pass in the street, while they sleep. Ukraine has been overrun by the Russians, overrun by the Germans. Ukraine has to put a stop to it by fighting for their freedom, or they will forever be overrun. Ukraine must recognize that Biden is a lowlife, worthless, corrupt, and incompetent individual. Use him as much as you can, but understand what you are dealing with.

That’s nothing! Schmoe killed 9 children in a country he was fleeing from.

My latest email from a Ukrainian friend ended this morning with a PS "While I wrote this letter one missile struck the 16-floor house." followed by 4 frowning face emojis. I suspect that this is what she was talking about.
Russian missiles are crappy, and frequently go off course. And often the operators are incompetent and uncaring, too.

I've noticed that a lot of these missiles, while possessing kinetic energy, are not exploding, as designed. Lots of refuse, but there should be NONE if the warhead were to detonate.
I find one thing amazing, and that is how the terrestrial Cellphone Network and Internet are still active. Were the USA to launch such a strike, the first thing we take down is the communications infrastructure. Russia isn't stoopid... there's a reason they're preserving comms and hitting only select military targets. IMO this is all about Putin getting "his guy" back in power in the Presidency.
