#russia #ukraine
"We inflicted damage and retreated" - see, now that's a clever move. People keep complaining about slow progress. But, having minimum casualty and sustained result is more important for UA against much larger enemy. This will also help degrade enemy morale if any left.
The Ukrainian training and tactics are light years ahead of the Russian mob/orcs. This video is a great example of fighting smarter.
@@evrose "Fight smarter, not harder". I'm glad they are getting that right.
True but there is still no way ukraine will win against Russia without help from the us
@@itsmemogul889 So? USSR couldn’t win against the nazis without help from the US, so why should Ukraine have to fight the nazis alone?
@@itsmemogul889 Russia is not the huge force it pretends to be. They struggle to get enough people to fight, like what happened their Afghanistan withdrawal. This isn't the 1940s and they aren't counter attacking. They're just bad and they're being embarrassed. Ukraine deserves help. Putin cries because he lost his own proxy game, that's karma.
Every time i saw a report from ukrainian soldiers i appreciate how professional they are. 100 classes over the animalic russian horde of looters. Slava Ukraine !💛💙💛💙
In a war all humans will experience there animal tendencies so don’t blame Ukrainian soldiers or Russian soldiers blame the greedy bastards that make money from these wars
@Panzer Blitz Then you have not watched certain animals so much,the only difference is that humans can invent war machines of mass destruction. thanks
@@bbbb8301 The blame almost solely falls on Putins lust for territory to be put back like the old Soviet Union.Ukraine was there once and doesnt want to go back as most countries that left the Old Soviet Union also dont want to go back.In this case I dont think those making or selling weapons have anything or little to do with the war, be thankful those weapons are available for Ukraines use.thanks
@Panzer Blitz No one knows what animals would do if they had human capibilities. It all depends on the values of the humans as if they act on their natural sinful proclivities. or not. The difference is animals will not be held accountable for their actions.Some animals eat their young and the young of their own species by the droves.I would say humans are also involved in the planetary biosphere simular to any plant or animal,whatever that means? So humans steal oxygen and animals dont,your nonsense is astounding.Humans have the highest purpose on earth of any life form and that is to honor and glorify God for his whole life,because humans have the knowledge of good and evil and God and also even have a part of God within them.Just a slight difference of opinion.thanks
USA lost war 2008 - 2024, 3 - 4 trillions lost, 34 trillion o f dept. Germany on economic collpase., becuase USA blasted NORD STREAM, and Germany has no cheap Russian gas for in dustry. SO who will support Ukraine war next 3 - 5 years ? USA ? NO. Germany ? NO. So. WHo ????
Thanks for doing the job that many other countries didn't want to. Your sacrifices are appreciated in the US. With our ability to supply intelligence and weapons, coupled with your tenacious, well thought out attacks, we hope that you eliminate the invaders and their ability to wage war. Your courage is amazing and the rest of the world appreciates it.
Yes
@Terry Fogg • And many of us want to be there to help them rebuild. Ukraine had many beautiful cities & towns before the invasion and they deserve a return to an aesthetic environment.
And the poor people in the rural areas who didn't have great housing to begin with but lost a habitable place from shelling will need help. The Western world has been working on prefab housing but they've thought surburban. Now they need to think what farmers need, everything from kitchen size to well, not city water, easy energy, insulation, etc.
Well said
🇺🇦💙💛🇺🇦
Salmo 37/35 protection for ukanias' volunteer!
This conflict must not end until Ukraine get it's territory back, and Russia pays for damages. Slava Ukraine support from Romania.
conflict must not end until russia bleed out a lot, thats why it lasts long till ukraine gets everything to mop the floor with em.
Poo tin should end like Ceaucescu.
When will the military turn? It’s been used purely for poo tin’s own ego, and they’ve been decimated for nothing.
They must be pissed off at him.
this conflict must end with Putin`s death
Russia can never pay enough for the innocent blood it shed in this life.
nd Ukraine INCINERATES the Kremlin!
Great job guys..the Canadian army would be proud to fight with such professionals..I'm impressed.

Before this war, I knew nothing about the Ukrainians. Now, I am at awe. Glory to Ukraine 🇺🇦
couple years back there was protest and they killed their own people
on my channel I have a 360 video of Kharkiv. Have a look around at the city before it was destroyed.
Same. I knew it as a former part of Russia, they spoke Russian and Ukrainian, which I'm ignorant to the differences between them, that Ukrainians were more western now, lived under better conditions, and are friendly. And that Chornobyl thing. I've met a few people who lived in Priyat.
Now, I want to meet more Ukrainians. Such tough, loving people.❤🇺🇦
@@micha-elhorus5799 You should see how they treat black people in Northern Africa and don't even get me started how they're treated in Russia.
I'm Ukrainian on my late dad's side and I always had to explain where Ukraine is. It could get difficult sometimes because some then answered with "Oh, you're Polish then" or "you're Russian then" or in one case "Isn't that a part of Bavaria?". I think people don't need explaining now any more.
Ukrainians are good in communicating with each other. That makes them united!
when they defend their country ,their homes, the strenghts to do so is so big in percentages! big morale!
Also, they care about their people, unlike the Russians who are simply cannon fodder who can (sort of) follow basic commands.
@@TroIIingThemSoftly stay united ,Ukraine ,and send the orcs of Putin back in Siberia!!!
I am convinced that Ukraine has passed the exam to become a NATO member. No country joining NATO's ranks had to defend its homeland in order to prove its suitability. If NATO does not accept Ukraine, it will lose one of the best and most powerful armies in the world. Слава Україні!!! Привіт з Польщі. Ми з тобою.
They are brilliant fighters and very intelligent about what they do. Thw world should be awe how these Ukrainians fight. God bless them and all the people of Ukraine. Ukranians please listen to a song from Australian Artist !!You are the voice !!! This is an older song ,but very appropriate for all Ukrainians just a few words from this song for you !!! We will not be silenced, we will not live in fear. It is a great song.
Dziękuję, jesteście prawdziwymi przyjaciółmi narodu ukraińskiego
Did you ever stop and think why we never allowed them in NATO before?
Urkraine is too good for nato....just sayin.
@@ClintonCouldHaveWarnedUs There were a couple reasons. Still, one of the primary concerns was that before 2014 the Ukrainian army suffered from the same issues the Russian Army had bad logistics, corruption, and poor command structure. While I can't say that everything is 100% now their performance speaks for itself. Ukraine has really been the testing ground to see if NATO tactics and weapons really work, and they've proven that not only are NATO weapons effective but that Russian weapons are hilariously ineffective. Hoping to see NATO membership for Ukraine and Georgia in the next couple years, Russia's proven they're not to be trusted except at the end of a bayonet.
Such calm and focused people! Amazing spirit the Ukrainian army has!!!
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 Slava Ukraini!

Nice! More intelligence and tactics than I’ve seen from the Russians once. I’m so happy to see courage and dedication of the Ukrainian troops.
I just think its stupid that they are posting this though. Wouldnt stuff and info like this help the russians someway or the other?
Im not against them posting stuff though, whatever keeps their mind clear and happy they should do. But info on what they did and tactics may help russia in future situations
@@hoppeananc it's information war, the only way they will win this war is by using people on social media to side WITH them and go against Russia which is stupid
@@itsmemogul889 They already have Western media doing that for them though. Information war is happening all around, especially internally in Russia. Here, the lies coming from the west are mostly to keep morale up for Ukrainian soldiers. Russia is literally killing people who are against the war.
@@hoppeananc man those tactics are well-known by every officers, no matter the country or the rank. The russians know this tactic, and they employ it as well, it's a very common trick so no big suprise tacticaly talking
That manoeuvre was like something out of the 101'st Airborne book of tactics. Cause a diversion & let them have it. Excellent work.
Those are tactics are learned from the best 🇺🇸.
@@JC.5.56 yes the British training really seems to be paying off.
@@senseofthecommonman British? You better do some more research.
All that was staged fools! Russians left the positions without any fighting.
@@JC.5.56 Instead of bickering like fools, know that Canada, the UK, the USA, the Netherlands and other countries have had advisors in Ukraine training the Ukrainian military since 2014
Please ask the reporters to tell the troops personally that those around the world who watch your channel have the highest of respect for your courage as a soldier and for the love of your country.
Slava Ukraine
Basically letting the Russians know they are there, and can hit and kill them at any time they want to. Good way to boost morale amongst your own troops, especially if there are no losses on your side, and all the while making the Russians wish they never invaded in the first place.
I am also sorry for the young lives of the Russian soldiers, do they ALL rape and kill? Just a thought....
Striking key locations and fading can also create the appearance that you're probing for a way to push through that area, which could cause the enemy to pull more units in to support, weakening them elsewhere. As a wise man said, all warfare is based on deception.
Another true special military operation! 🇺🇦💛🇺🇦
👍👍😂😂😂
I'm blown away with 🇺🇦Ukraines military and people!
I will go 10 trillion pc with you on this
Amazing Brave Ukrainian soldiers. God bless from 🇬🇧
For now, it's the best way to fight up close. Hit and run. Many Russians don't want to be there, and if they are randomly hit every few days, it plays with their minds and willingness to fight/be there. They need to be made to feel that at any moment, they could be killed. Drones are doing a great job at this as well.
Thank you for the insight. (Instead of the morons who think it's a sporting event, or a holy crusade.)
A lot more long range artillery and MLRS systems would do an even better job. Ukraine is now within artillery range of Belgorod - the largest supply base and gathering point for Russian troops. Shelling Russian troops effectively when they aren't even deployed yet would be a formidable feat, wreaking havoc on their morale early on. Shelling Russian supply depots effectively would disrupt Russian operations all over Ukraine. Also, shelling a place where there are thousands of troops and tons of supplies crammed up in a small area is a lot more effective than hunting down individual tank and infantry units as they attack.
@@a0flj0 Yeah, but I am not sure how long that artillery would last without air cover. Plus, I don't think they are getting sent enough to cover the size of the areas needed..
@@mrmrgaming You are right. But mobile artillery could get in, fire, and be some other place, far away, before Russians could even lift airplanes from the ground. The howitzers the Germans send have a high firing rate - 10 rounds per minute sustained firing rate, 3 rounds in 0.9 seconds burst rate. In just five minutes, ten of those could shoot 500 projectiles - at more than 60 kilometers, with the smartest available munition. That should be able to do some significant damage, I believe - carpet bombing of 5 hectares, or targeted bombing of multiple smaller targets - camps or storage areas.
It is not easy to be warriors like Ukrainian soldiers
They love their country and are not afraid of dying for it. That, IMO, is what deserves the utmost respect. A man who doesn't love his country is a man with no identity, is a nobody. Someone pretending to love his country - its culture and its people - and not willing to sacrifice for his life is not really loving his country.
Victory to Ukraine! Stay strong ♥️
Such bravery 🇺🇦!! Defending your country from an invading force, I just cannot imagine.
May God bless you guys, you're defending your land and victory is around the corner..
God bless Ukrainian 🙌 🙏 ❤️
God protect you brave Ukrainian soldiers
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
Incredibly PROFESSIONAL job! You'd give US Marines a run for their money. Orcs don't have a chance. I'll keep pushing US politicians to pour in arms ammo intel and donating to help refugees and wounded.
Doing the same here!
Blessings and luck from USA to Ukraine 💙💛🙏🍀
Putin, that's how a special operation works and now the Finnish army is getting fully prepared
If no one resorts to chemical, biological, or nuclear weapons there may be hope. But if it happens then it’s s it’s not war, it’s mutual annihilation
The current Russian problem is, that the fights are much too close to the Russian border, so very likely they would hit themself. This definitely would sink the morale of Russian troops to the bottom. Then unrest in whole Russia would start and "neighbors" like China are likely to take a part back from Siberia.
Slava Ukraini, from Iran
hit and run, shoot and scoot. no Ukrainian casualties, that is good news, Slava Ukraine.
Ukraine, I wish I could be with you!I pray for you everyday day!
I've never ever heard of this sort of bravery since I was born... God save Ukraine 🙏💞💞🙏
Be safe, we are praying Ukraine will kick Russian ass. Bless you heroes. 🇨🇦 🍁
GLORY to Ukraine 🌻🙏💪 sending love and prayers from the US 🤝
The Ukrainian military have shown the world what amazing warriors they are ...I hope you all survive this brutal war !
Excellent work. Very professional. Victory to Ukraine!
Glory to Ukraine! Sending support from another country (Georgia) under current military occupation of Russian Armed Forces.

We need to get more optics and NVG to the troop level. It’s a game changer on the ground and would allow the Ukrainians to harass the hell out of Russian troops at night.
So proud of your troops, Ukrainians!
Our prayers for your safety always.
May this war end so soon.
God bless you all.
We keep praying for ukraine God will protect you🙏🙏🙏💙💛
If that "no own losses, up to a platoon of enemy losses" is even near the truth, that just tells us how badly prepared the Russians were and how well the Ukrainians understood and exploited the situation.
These dudes are amazing soldiers. So disciplined and well trained. Love from USA, Slava Ukraine.
Go Ukraine all the way from uk
Stay strong and safe 🙏🇺🇦
Awesome work Soldiers 👏. Keep at them. Stay safe and strong. 🙏🇺🇦💙💛

good job your bravery and resilience are starting to pay off SLAVA UKRAINI
Wow, this is a video showing what is really happening on the battlefield. Great job, guys - no damage with lots of losses on the orcs side :)
Pure heroes 🤗
What impresses me the most is the calm and efficiency demonstrated by the Ukrainian forces here and in many other videos. The look determined and professional.
This is a war of attrition on the Russian invading troops. The longer they stay, the more they suffer. God bless Ukraine!
Such harassment tactic is excellent: this made a huge damage and demoralise the ennemy with minimizing the risks
Since the 28th of February we have been with you Ukraine!Slava ukraine Glory to the Heroes!...
Bravo, Bravo, Bravo Ukraine! And thank you so much also to the brave reporter and camera man. Outstanding bravery to bring us this presentation.💯💪💛🇺🇦🙏🇨🇦 Canada supports Ukraine.❤️🩹
we are behind Ukraine in prayers because that is your land
What an awful radio setup. Having lugged a radio around myself quite a lot, I feel for that poor guy.
This is somewhere we in the west can easily help.
@PalleRasmussen • It certainly puts into perspective how dire the situation is that it's not even on Ukraine's "must have" list.
@@yvonnetomenga5726 I do not know their "must have" list. I do identify a problem from my own time doing recon patrols though.
Yes 👍, we the USA 🇺🇸 need to give them all the help they need

❤️Ukrain soldiers (smart, trying to stay alive)God Bless
These men know what they are doing, while the Russians as far as all the interviews I have heard, do not have a clue. Their commanders tell them nothing, so when they get to their destination, they 1) do not know it is their destination and 2) have no idea what they must do. 🤦♀️😂😂
Those have got to be the most brilliant soldiers of all wars, they are as smart and got the cunning of foxes, They all work as one, they can totally rely on each other, they care deeply about each other from the smallest child to the oldest person. The crazed Russians do not stand a chance, they must be suffering from a great lack of sleep worrying about when they are going to get fired or bombed on, it is a total nightmare for those invaders
Yes it sure is, they should lay down their weapons & go home. Then their nightmare will be over
@@frankwood7878 i Fully agree with you, To live life in peace is a great gift to have, to live with war is hell on earth

Still can't believe Russian infantry lacks night vision. Go get em lads.
They lack morals and a sense of right and wrong. NVGs are a luxury they just can't afford. Like tires for their trucks. They can no longer be considered a peer military.
Most Ukranians also lack it, unfortunately

I hope the west will stay united to help Ukraine even if it cost us all with higher taxes, prices for gas, goods and services etc. Speaking for myself, this is a cause that is trully worthy of our sacrifice when compered to what the people of Ukraine have endured. Stay united and stay strong, until the Russians are pushed back to their own country.
Oh im pretty sure they will.
Since Kramatorsk's newly discovered gas deposits last 2010 basically makes Ukraine the second largest gas supplier in Europe. Tapping on that will make Russias gas obsolete, and that my friend is why Russia invaded.
The "Destroy Nazism" part was just a piss poor excuse for justifying the invasion.
No its better usa take care of his own people first then sends money and weapons to war
This is end of the west😂

What incredible light infantry. Imagine what they could achieve if they had modern combined arms capabilities. They are using tactics barely taught at the Infantry School at Ft Benning. Manuals are going to have to be updated to use the lessons Ukraine is teaching about modern warfare.
Excellent work well done keep it up Slava Ukraine!🇺🇦🦖🚜🌻✌️
This war is an absolute disaster for Russia, they have gone into Ukraine as an occupying force, when the Russians are confronted or attacked they appear not to have any counter offensive strategy. The only seem to either stand there ground and get slaughtered or they simply turn and scatter in all directions. They were on Kyiv’s doorstep and then they simply retreated with enormous human loss and equipment destroyed. How senseless their entire operational strategies are, wasting manpower and munitions on civilian targets is simply stupid and pointless. Ukrainians have proven to be strategic and tough in their response to advances by the blundering Orcs.
They're not phased by explosions anymore
Warthog is doing an excellent journalist job ... real time alot of the time you can see it for yourself ... the journalists are not just imbedded they have skin in the game ... awesome ... we all do ...
Bravo Ukrainian soldiers .Chase the looters out of your land. Slava Ukraine. May you achieve victories.

This will provide valuable data to the military since it shows what troops are doing in modern battlefield where both sides have jets, tanks, artilleries etc.
When this is all done, they will teach the world their tactics in ambush. They have it down to a science I believe!! Well done!!!!
