Why do they have to do so?
Before the start of Zelenskyy's counteroffensive on the "Fourth of June, the Russians controlled 120,700 square kilometers of Ukrainistan. In 4 months Führer Zelenskyy's troops conquered 100 square kilometers, only 120,600 square kilometers to go, do some math how long it will take to recapture entire Ukrainistan….😂😂😂
Situation in the Zaporizhia district: Russian troops, air strikes, artillery fire, MLRS and heavy TOS-1A flamethrower systems repelled an attack by the assault group of the 71st Jaeger Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the area of the village of Verbove. In addition, in the area of the settlement of Robotyne, accumulations of manpower and equipment of the 47th and 117th mechanized brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces were defeated. Over 60 Ukrainian military personnel, two armored combat vehicles and three cars were destroyed. During the counter-battery fight, two US-made M777 artillery systems, an Akatsiya self-propelled artillery mount, and an Msta-B howitzer were hit. Yet at Verbove yesterday the Russian Army reflected the attack of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
He’s not dead, he’s in a special coffin
In the South Donetsk direction, the Russian Armed Forces repelled an attack by the UkroNazis. Enemy losses amounted to over 150 UkroNazis…🔥🔥🔥
Dead or alive the war is going on😢

Trust Ukranian media (only a single government – controlled outlet, by the way) at your own risk.
Sad the lies 😞

This is like the Russian version of that Weekend at Bernie's movie😂😂
Did anybody else notice the video of him possibly alive that he didn't have his admiral stripes on if I'm not mistaken
I'm not familiar with Russian ranking, but I thought I've seen him with his admiral patches in more recents photos
Dead man sitting
Interview on Russian tv shows a Russian reporter asking him about recent events or trouble in sevastopol and he said there was no trouble in sevasstopol… Weird answer.

Russia tells the truth? Then santa claus is real
Why do russians look so evil looking😂
Another Ukrainian propaganda. Ugh sick and tired of these wars just end it man find peace. It’s only draining our tax payed moneys that could’ve benefited fellow citizens in need of basic items instead of buying cry baby Ukrainians some weapons that they even don’t know how to operate.
This guy lies too much 😅
so the mission is still ongoing!!! hunt him down for all the missiles he launch that killed civilians!
La Russie est encore trop gentille avec l'acteur. Elle devrait finir avec l'acteur depuis longtemps pour que la guerre se termine en Europe.
it was fake picture they claim.
Who is thst old guy Ukro shill? He's making clearly false and pointless claims why?
What of the Ukrainian false flag missile strike on the civilian market place?
It sounds like Zelensky has just hired a known Satanist woman to work with Ukrainian schools!
Fake stories again from Russia
Just look how scared the Russian generals are Putin’s puppets
Dictator Putin is a war criminal
For ukraine,he is dead,for russia,he is the ghost

Russia: where the lie where invented. Ridiculous ! It is an insult to intelligent people ! What is the average IQ in Kreml ? 50 ?
And what is your joy? West destroy Africa and now East just get out with your propaganda
It could be a look alike, Russia uses all sorts of look alike. In the vedo Sokolov is not seen to speak or to blink. Could be a Sokoloc doll
Couldn't give a flying fig!
BBC aid famous for lying the US intelligence services have admitted Ukraine has gone only 2km since their offensive they have lost the war all they are doing is pumping weapons to dead soldiers
