CNN's Clarissa Ward describes a "steady stream of thuds and booms" around Kyiv as Russian forces continue to advance on the Ukrainian capital while CNN's Scott McLean reports on the growing humanitarian crisis in Mariupol where civilians are trapped without access to aid.

    1. @Deborah Freedman lol. I’m sorry, I know you mean well and these rules do exist but they are, nor should they be, not important to the men fighting on the front lines. Yes it should be different for the higher ranking, strategic players but when push comes to shove a good battlefield leader will do whatever is necessary to minimize losses to HIS troops. Sometimes a sharp knife cuts best. We all SHOULD know that the Russians WILL occupy Ukraine without help from outside. It’s in their best interest to save what’s left of their country and negotiate with the Russians. And NO, I don’t like that reality either but that’s just the way it is. The longer Ukraine resists, the weaker their bargaining position. It is one thing to win the war, quite another to win the peace. I’m afraid Ukraine has waited too long to take Putin’s concerns seriously enough to avoid the loss of a free society there. Better that than to get into WWIII.

    2. @luis manuel lopez zuñiga Throw a link to a video where nationalists drop bombs on maternity hospitals in Donbass. Show me where Donetsk is burning just like Mariupol is now. And if Russia had not entered the Donbas, then nothing would have happened

    3. @Q That’s because it didn’t happen. It’s hard to be a reputable news organization known the world over if you don’t report facts. If you want propaganda go watch Russian State News. Don’t watch actual news agencies and expect to find your Russia back conspiracy theories on them.

  1. Why doesn’t Vladimir work on solving the real problems in Russia?….The Russian people deserve better

    1. @Rick Sanchez I think you’re being fed false propaganda that is not all over the news outlets and if not they would talk about it so are you living in Russia it seems like you have a Cuban last name

    2. @lizzys BEAUTY show etc. Of course they don’t like their kids getting killed . Of course many young “innocent” boys die there , but they believe in what their doing till the last . Those who don’t , surrender to Ukrainians and we treat them with kindness, but Russians torture our poor soldiers if they get them in their hands

    3. @lizzys BEAUTY show etc. Russians don’t believe in God at least comunists if that’s what you meant

    4. @Emily Samoliuk Putin is horrible to his Russian soldiers he doesn’t even feed them and he said if they revolt he will Jade them jailed them for 15 years and kill their Russian families you are so right Putin is truly evil

    5. @Emily Samoliuk Who didn’t does not believe in God and hes a Communist I don’t know about the rest of the Russian citizens I just feel they’ve been oppressed and in the dark and they’re treated badly some of them are just not educated enough I suppose

    1. @gacj2010 There are pols who don’t know the same words and can make it to the W H. and had to be told where Venezuela and Ukraine were. This is just your little I’m smarter ego trip.

    2. Chemtrails stay in the sky and spread out. CON-trails evaporate. How can you people be so blind to what’s avoided your head EVERY. SINGLE.DAY!! Unreal how dumbed down and ignorant people have become

    1. @Ruoyu Li Hey little troll farm how much are they paying you in Russia I heard the rubles less than a penny hathat’s why Putin does he covers only one side of the story we’re here in America we cover all sides of the story

    1. @Jock Young How is it Russian propaganda? There has been articles in The Nation, Newsweek, RFE… and many other western media sources… Again, how is the fact of an 8 year civil war in Ukraine considered a specific sides propaganda? It’s well documented truth, as well as funding Neo Nazi groups in Ukraine (It’s literally in congress . gov)

      Was the ghost of keiv not propaganda?
      Was snake island not propaganda?
      Was the “little girl scolding the Russian solder” not propaganda?
      … so many more.

      If you not actively researching current events from both sides, you have a bias. If you’re being fed information by western MSM, without doing your due diligence, you are being propagandized. You don’t pay these “news” services and they have no legal duty to tell you the truth. Their goal is profit… by any means necessary.

    2. No politicians are hands on. Wtf are I talking about? The news and the world is all a stage. It’s all fake and nonsense. Anyone that goes to the news for info becomes dumber

    3. WHY IS BIDEN funding Russia?

      These WAR MONGERING FEAR MONGERING servants of Satan will be JUDGED! Commie puppets will reap hell for all their lies and disdain for God, truth and mocking the suffering of people!

      If they do not repent… They will be DAMNED!

      Jesus deplatform. lying bafoons

      Who support dictatorships who harm their people and nations that fund terrorism!

      Anti Jesus Communist tyrannical birds of a feather flock together. NO surprise wicked leftist in us are working with Putin and pals.in pro terroir Iran and venomous Venezuela.

      CAN TWO WALK together unless they agree?

      Wicked tyrants would rather people suffer, then do what’s righteous!

      WHY WAS THIS *REGIME* BUYING PUTIN OIL!? NOW HE WANT TO BUY AND IRAN AND VENEZUELA OIL! Both supporters of Purim and terrorism. Both are tyrannical governments.

      God gave USA resources. Only wicked lawless regimes would seek to starve and harm. Its own citizens well supporting tyrannical regimes! WAKE UP IN JESUS NAME!

      DISTRACTION is why is this adnin funding war against Ukraine? Billions for Russian oil!

      TO TRY TO GET PEOPLE’S EYEYS FROM THEIR Lawless tyranny and destruction!
      Bidens doesn’t care about them if he did he would stup importing oil from Russia! HE WOULD USE OUR GOD GIVEN RESOURCE’S! Rather then punishing working familiar!

      You hypocrite leftist are funding Putin!

      immoral platforms MSM…. using war to boost back up and try to change subject. GOD HAS NOT FORGOTTEN THEIR WAR AGAIN ST TRUTH, AMERICANS and all who rejected their propaganda.

      He will not allow thecabal of liars, thieves and bullies. To distract and hide from their crimes.

      Sin and punishment are like the body and the shadow, never very far apart. Who sin for their profit will not profit by their sin; you may see nothing but well in its commission, you will see nothing but woe in its conclusion. The law of retribution is as fixed as the law of gravitation. There is a connecting string between ourselves and our misdeeds. We tie ourselves by an invisible and enduring thread to every evil deed we do. There is an Australian missile called the boomerang, which is thrown so as to describe singular curves, and falls again at the feet of the thrower. Sin is that boomerang, which goes off into space, but turns again upon its author, and, with tenfold force, strikes him who launched it.

      This is why Jesus says to repent and preach! GOD IS MERCIFUL. This why Jesus said forgive and pray for others!

      Lord have mercy. DO NOT ALLOW THIS STATION FULL OF LYING IMMORAL PEOPLE TO manipulate anymore!

      5They pretend to be kind, but don’t believe them.

      Their hearts are full of many evils.b

      26While their hatred may be concealed by trickery,

      their wrongdoing will be exposed in public

      Pray to Jesus people. The regime is sneaky. PRay to God to exposé leaders who are false. Taking money and seeking to lead people to Marshall law.

       Prayer to Deflect Satan’s Schemes

      In James 4:7, we are promised that the devil will flee from us if we “submit [ourselves] to God and resist him.” Resisting involves placing ourselves in the best possible position to serve Christ and avoiding any places or positions containing unnecessary sinful temptations.

      The places and situations in which we put ourselves are often infected with strongholds. We regularly and voluntarily place ourselves in situations allowing Satan’s strongholds to birth and bind our circumstances. For example, church leaders are often asked whether the believer should totally abstain from alcohol or whether an occasional drink is acceptable. Every believer has certain weaknesses and strengths. However, if we place ourselves in a position of vulnerability with such a dangerous ingredient, we are inviting and giving the devil an advantage over us.

      By resisting and deflecting the devil, we are giving ourselves a home-field advantage.

      Heavenly Father, I wholly submit myself to you and your perfect plan for my life. I ask for you to guide my path and to take control of my steps wherein I can resist temptation and the wiles of the devil.

      I pray for the courage to avoid the acceptability of the places and paths prescribed and allowed by the world. I pray for the greater awareness of your higher calling for my life knowing that full submission to your will is required for total effectiveness of resisting our enemy and conquering the strongholds in my life. Amen

      WHY WAS THIS *REGIME* BUYING PUTIN OIL!? NOW HE WANT TO BUY AND IRAN AND VENEZUELA OIL! Both supporters of Purim and terrorism. Both are tyrannical governments.

    1. @D.h. Jefferies lol exactly.

      Trump tells his voters “Dont vote by mail”
      Trump supporters dont vote by mail.

      Election officials count the mail votes last which would have, you guessed it, votes being towards, not trump. do you think that people who dislike trump are going to listen to his orders?

      which is why you saw a mix of votes for in person voting going towards both parties which wouldn’t be surprising though that these types of votes, trump would lead in the majority.
      but remember, trump supporters listened to trump to not vote by mail, so they didn’t. which is why you see a majority of mail ins going towards biden. you think biden supporters gave a sht what trump had to say about not voting by mail?

    2. @detectivemarkseven now days it’s fairly easy and fast to rebuild if there’s these funds and I’m sure if they do win they will get alot of help

  4. I was stressed out when my wife was in labor. I can’t imagine going through that with bombs raining down. Absolutely heartbreaking.

    1. @Mike Martino of course they believe it. They’re brainwashed.
      The government just spent 2 years using psychological warfare against the American people. They will believe anything from this point on. I bet most of them are still sitting around their home and driving down the road in their car wearing a mask.

    2. @Heywood Jablowme how does that matter at all?? Russia is still firing at Ukrainian people… People are people and Russia needs to duck off.

  5. I like how Putin calls for talks and does not ease up on the bombing. He is a double minded man, is punishing Ukraine for rejecting him. He’s like a controlling ex boyfriend who is punishing his long lost love Ukraine for saying – we don’t want you. How childish.

    1. yes, so many children are in heaven too early. … please, don’t tell “childish”. slava Ukraine🇺🇦 gerojam slava💓

  6. Two days ago, 81 young people between the ages of(13 _ 50) were beheaded by Saudi Arabia on political charges in one day. Why did the humanitarian,sports and media organizations censor this tragedy?🤐

    1. Primary reasons are oil, money, and skin color of the victims. World does not care as much about people being beheaded if they aren’t white.

    2. CBS reported it. It said the Saudi government claims to have beheaded them for capital crimes, like murder of men, women and children. The CBS story also states the Saudi government executed those people now, because world attention was focused on Ukraine.

    3. They are of dark skin. No one cares. It doesn’t affect us. This could affect the entire world and they are white people. That is your answer.

  7. Russia has a active army of 12 Million soldiers, 74 warships, 51 submarines, while the army has more than 13,300 tanks, almost 20,000 armoured fighting vehicles, and nearly 6,000 pieces of artillery. Its air force boasts around 1,300 aircraft and 500 helicopters, thousands of missiles but it choose to send only 1.5 million soldiers and a few hundred tanks and vehicles and no fighter planes why because they know the US and NATO does not have the guts to challenge it in it’s own backyard. The Russian from the beginning wanted to Donbass region and it wanted to link Crimea by land to Russia mainland. That’s why there is heavy pounding of the coastline and to deceive US intelligence and western media that it wants to capture Kyiv they paraded 41 Km of tanks clearly visible from satellites as it was done intentionally so that all focus is on Kyiv. Russia has no interest in Kyiv from the beginning all they wanted south coastal region and nuclear facilities. Javelins and Stringers are defensive weapons it can only prolong the war not win it. The Russian war strategy is siege and break the morale of the enemy and compel it to surrender.Today’s Putin statement proves this as he said the negotiations has shown good progress which means it’s objective of war is achieved. I will not be surprised if this war ends in couple of days. By the way US and NATO bombed Iraq for 40 days and Yugoslavia for 80 days before sending ground troops so we can imagine the civilians casualties and loss of properties.

    1. I’m sorry, but where did you get 12 million solats from? There are 65 million men of all ages in Russia. The real Russian army with all the reserves is 1 million. And ready for war 200k. If Russia had so many soldiers, it would not ask Belarus to attack, it would not send Chechens to Ukraine, and it would not gather volunteers in Syria. Russia is a weak country that has created a myth about its large and strong army

    2. @Ярослав Верба They were probably planning on using Belarus regardless. Belarus is close to the Capital and easy to launch Air attacks from. The Russians used a strategy similar to the Nazis except there plan was to quickly encircle them. Only thing that is slowing them down is because the Ukraine has better trained soldiers. Russia has a large army but poorly trained. If the west didn’t Supply Ukraine with Weapons Russia would of already won, Right now and it pains me to say it because i have family Roots in the Ukraine all we are doing is just delaying the inevitable and repeating history. All talk and no action until the enemy starts knocking at our doorstep.

    3. @Ярослав Верба Russian Armed forces are 1.1 million of active duty force. Reserves are 2 million. There is no need for more force to bring to Ukraine. Territory of Belorussia will be needed for third faze of the war – invasion of the west of Ukraine. So far very obvious tactic of Russian military is to avoid urban war and high civilian casualties, unless absolutely necessary, like in Mariupol. Ukrainian army is grinded every day and already lost more than a half of armor and equipment. In two weeks Ukrainian resistance in the East will crumble and then events will start to develop very fast.

  8. It’s Russian military tactics to brake resistance and take control of the city, just ask people from Syria for instance.

  9. In the United States, not a single report was shown on television about the attack of Ukrainian troops on Donetsk on March 14, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said.

    The Russian ambassador to the United States, Anatoly Antonov, said that there is a feeling that no one cares about a missile strike on Donetsk. He also noted that the majority of Western media exposes Russia as an aggressor and creates a one-sided perception of events in Ukraine among the audience.

    The Ambassador expressed hope that the media in the United States will stop inciting Russophobia and will assess the situation impartially.
