    1. @Da Hermit – So, your grasp of historical facts are a little weak . What were our deceased Canadian military doing in Afghanistan with our American Neighbors ? Invading ? 🇨🇦🙏🇺🇦

  2. There is no way this high a death count should be happening.. even by Natural Disasters this would be an outrageous number!!
    😮😕😢 😭
    I stand with Ukraine! 💛 💙🇺🇦 💙 💛 Slava Ukraini!! 🇺🇦 💛

    1. @de caesaris NATO was never to expand eastward after 1989. Read up on Prof John Mearsheimer who has predicted this war and the late Prof Stephen Cohen. Russia was not allowed to join NATO and the EU. Anyway too late now Eastern Ukraine Donbass Mariupol to the sea is now liberated.

  4. I remember the world-wide concern for the Russian sailors trapped undersea in the “Kursk”, for the Chilean miners trapped underground – dozens of men threatened with death, our hearts went out. Here we have scores of men, women and children, trapped underground in rubble and still being bombarded on the orders of an ambitious criminal. How can we allow our representatives to stand by?

  5. The whole world must come together to destroy evil. Just imagine it was happening to your country. What would you do. What if it was happening to Russia. What if it was happening in the continent of africa

  6. I have a feeling that UN secretary is not fit for that position..after Kofi Annan the UN has never has never been able to confront or engage world leaders to respect UNand guide them to do the right thing

  7. Every heart that values life for every human is hurting today. My sleep, the nights of a billion others, struggles to remain hopeful.

    1. It doesn’t seem to bother any country, that what is supposed to be a major supplier of our important resources is being sacked by Russia. Does that mean other military actually buys their weapons from Russia and China too? Hmmmm Where does our military get all these mysterious resources for what they have. Do you see any other place in the world where it actually makes sense as a supplier, or does it seem like even those militaries don’t exist? Are we losing our defense from the inside out, or have we already been controlled by Russia this whole time and no one seems to care? I mean, they couldn’t win the court case accusing Myanmar of a 30 year genocide with all the evidence to prove it. As if they couldn’t afford doing that for the sake of using their military junta for replacing the shadow government that is trying to push away the west and stop them from using their land for farming. Myanmar hates the west, and every materialist society. Some people think that’s bad for business, since they want their land for all the gold and fertile soil is there. But they don’t want foreign people in their country. So their solution? Forming the junta and letting them kill and desrtroy everything and everyone until no one is able to stop them from making deals with netherlands, germany, and eurpope to develop the land there for their economy. Guess who supplied the weapons to Myanmar? Does it look like russia or is that too simple because you can easily have a very FANCY and elaborate way of supplying your resources to fund terrorism in other countries. I wonder what those TUNNELS look like and why they seem to exist.

      If you think this is a war about good vs evil, you are dead wrong. There is something far more worse that is using the death of innocent people to make people avoid considering more deeply the true horror of the reality we ALLOW wars to even exist! Both sides are wrong, none of this should be happening and both have their fair share of sins which they are truly committing. BOTH and the one connected to this elaborate system which supplies people with resources, has always ever BEEN ONE COLLECTIVE and agreed to entity (Major country suppliers of resources for businesses and industry) and viewed Ukraine developing an independent system as terrorists even though the true terrorists are all these global powers controlling every single country to create a system that destroys the land and enslaves people on low wages and kills culture for factories!!! So if the west is so well developed and has huge trade and is benefitting off of the resources in these countries supplying our products, who are controlled by these militaries, what do you think the real point of all this is??

      TO obtain resources in such a way that any evidence or trace evidence of how they are used is completely RESET now that russia supposedly claims that resource. So now it’s impossible to trace back WHO was supplying the weapons to these countries like Myanmar and Syria who are geocoding their people, and Myanmar too. And who you do think that benefits?? Look at where the money is. What countries are prospering, what countries benefit off of these control groups? DO you really know where you get all that STEEL???? Wouldnt it be Truly a CRISIS no one would ALLOW if one of out major resources was being taken over?? N…. BECAUSE…. We don’t JUST depend on them for steel. We get it from russia, china, and everywhere else that has evil military, which apparently exists solely to ensure that countries can be factoried, and forced into poverty to control resources not being a market, or overpriced, or even DENIED which could destroy the rest of the world who is a dependant on those resources. Rather than making fair deals with separate governments, they control them ALL to ensure no one is able to destroy an entire country (developed country like the US and Europe) from falling, so they all do this equally!! So no , they are not losing Ukraine if we still technically work with russia and other severely oppressed and enslaved and corrupt countries being used for their resources!

  8. Russians can’t wait to get a hold of this guy to make an example out of him
    I feel like the world has let this guy down

    1. Mayor Boichenko looks a lot like President Zelinski. They are both heroes for staying & fighting with their people against war criminal putin & his murderous goons. God Bless Ukraine with Peace & Freedom!!!

  9. Praying for everyone may God protect you, give you strength, and heal your wounds. So absolutely horrible. 🙏

  10. Terrible what happened there.

  11. I can only pray that the military aid arrives in time to take Mariupol back into their hands..I pray that God will intervene and stop this massacre. I wish I was young enough to join their army though I am not there my heart is.God bless Ukraine

    1. Dear Child: I gave you life, a nice place to live and everything you need to be happy. If you fu*k up everything, is not my fault. Fix your own messes.
      Signed: GOD

  12. It’s frustrating to watch this war rage on against civilians. We can’t do anything to help them, it’s up to the world leaders to stop this insanity. A city has been completely destroyed and nothing is being done about it.

    1. they have unleashed this madness and are going to take profits. So are they really leaders or representatives of someone’s interests?

  13. You all worked so hard to make your city great and then these demons turn your lives into a hellish night mare. Praying for you all.

    1. Ukrainian lost before that war started. Everyone who left should have stayed to fight for their country. So yeah, sometimes you have to know when to fold. Especially when it comes to innocent children. Blood is in that man hands.

  14. May God bless, protect, and preserve the entire land of Ukraine. May God bless, protect, and preserve all the people of Ukraine. Amen. Amen. Amen.

  15. Thank you USA for helping Ukrainians, to defend themselves from army of OrcSS, my country, Czech Republic, is doing everything to help them, but your help is so important, it’s a fight for freedom, independence and democracy
