Russia is stepping it up, Ziolensky will be crying in tomorrows briefing. He'll send out pleas to join a west alliance or something which will on deaf ears. All on your own.

Why would they kill him? Just an innocent student.

More up to date news - he died being hit by a shell fragment.

Bad enough.

If he were in NATO, then this would have already been a WW3. That is exactly why Russians moved in; they have no interest in fighting Ukrainians at all. They just want to replace him with their own puppet.

The sheer force is just to make an example out of what happens when Russians are pushed too far.

I just want to say that knowing a thing or two about blast overpressure effects, that must have been a very powerful blast considering the distance between the initial flash and the blast wave overpressure reaching the camera crew. Honestly I am so sad watching this, I know deep down anyone near to that blast will not have survived it.

Air Raid sirens blearing over Kyiv again:

Bad enough.

The way Ukraine is showing indifference about international students of colour, countries need to raise the matter seriously with India leading the charge as they probably have the highest number of students. The freaken Ukrainians can't hold foreign students hostages if their respective countries don't support their cause.

Those who are gungho about this invasion should consider.

Russia says Ukraine was part of the Soviet union and has no right to exist after DECADES of recognizing it as a separate country which it has been historically.

What if India claims Pakistan and says it was part of India and is fully justified in invading it and merging it back into India as it was divided by the British, a foreign colonial power.

Such reasoning would be dangerous, utterly unjustifiable and a clear example of territorial expansionism.

This is Russian expansionism and has to be denounced by the world community on principle if nothing else.

Pakistanis here seem be supporting this invasion and justifying it, without realising what the consequences would be for many parts of the world.

An endless century of wars across the world as powerful nations justified invasions in the name of correcting a perceived wrongs of history.
