    This war is so stupid. Innocent people dying just because one 70 year old man full of botox jacks off to the fantasy and memory of the soviet union.

    PLEASE TO STOP THE STUPID CLAWN
    PEOPLE OF UKRAINE SHOULD MOVE QUICKLY TO REMOVE PRESIDENT ZELENSKY FROM HIS POWER WHY? 1) BECAUSE ZELENSKY SEND UKRAINE YOUTH AND UKRAINE PEOPLE TO DIE ON THE BATTLEFIELD TO SERVE TO BECOME A NATO PROXY 2) BECAUSE ZELENSKY'S DECISION TO STAY IN WAR HAS DESTROYED UKRAINE CITIES. ZELENSKY PROTEND THE WAR ONLY TO SERVE THE WEST. NOT IN THE INTEREST OF UKRAINE AND ITS PEOPLE. 3) BECAUSE ZELENSKY FOLLOWING THE WEST EXTENDING THE WAR HAS MADE THE UKRAINE PEOPLE POOR AND SUFFERING JUST FOR THE FOLLOWING OF WEST ORDERS. 4) BECAUSE ZELENSKY WAS STUPID TO OBEY THE WEST TO ENEMY WITH RUSSIA AS A NUCLEAR SUPERPOWER WITH DEVASTATING MILITARY POWER. 5) BECAUSE ZELENSKY IS STUPID, KEEPS AT WAR WITH RUSSIA WHICH WILL NOT BE DEFEATED NOR AMERICA OR NATO. EVEN MORE BY SMALL POWERS OF UKRAINE BECAUSE RUSSIA IS A NUCLEAR SUPER POWER IMPOSSIBLE TO LOSE IN A MILITARY CONFLICT WITH UKRAINE. 6) THE PEOPLE OF UKRAINE SHOULD IMMEDIATELY OVERTOCK THE FOOLISH PRESIDENT ZELENSKY TO STOP DESTROYING UKRAINE AND KILLING THEIR OWN PEOPLE FOR THE WEST'S INTERESTS COME ON UKRAINE PEOPLE Overthrow this doll government ASAP.. DON'T LET YOUR FATE BE IN ZELENSKY'S HANDS.. YOUR FATE IS IN YOUR OWN HANDS. DO IT NOW.

    Ukraine atack bridge as its military target in a war, and terorrist country russia use rockets and drones to attack civilian targets and grain storages at Odesa, destroying 60000 tons of grain. This is pathetic and weak is to revenge like that.

    Attacking the bridge is the escalation! Putin gives just soft respond😂

    This bridge must be taken out completely to win the war.Bombard it till the highway and railway lines are gone forever.

    Armies still run on their "stomachs". ANY disruption of transport to the front areas will have an effect. There is rarely anything such as a grand action that is obvious to everyone. The death of a thousand cuts still results in death, it's just not a fast a bullet to the head. The latter being what people want to see but the former wins the war.

    As the days go by, Russia loses its place as one of the world's armies.

    If I were Putin, I wouldn't worry about my reputation in this situation. After everything that happened, one more blown up bridge hardly makes any difference
