Ukraine War special report: soldiers in Kharkiv take on the Russian army – BBC News

Ukraine’s military claim that in many areas they are now pushing back Russia’s invading forces.

The city of Kharkiv is 25 miles from the Russian border. It’s faced relentless Russian missile strikes and shelling.

But Ukrainian soldiers are holding out there.

Ben Brown in Lviv presents a BBC News at Ten special report from Quentin Sommerville and cameraman Darren Conway.

  2. I hope the Russians recruit the freedom fighters and patriots the
    Taliban. They proved themselves worthy opponents. Making the USA, England and
    NATO fight 20 years against an army of 100,000 peasants and lose. How
    humiliating. The worst military defeat ever in the history of warfare
    suffered by the USA, England and NATO.

  5. Russia makes 720 million usd per day selling only gas and oil. Most goes to Putin. Russia has about 144 million people. That is 5 dollars for every Russians per day even they do nothing and breath. If you only pay children, that is 82 us dollars per day for children under 18. Let russians know so that they punish putin. He does war so that people rely on him during war so they reply on him instead catching him for stealing money that russian people deserve.

  9. 'WAR' is a place where young people who don't know each other and don't hate each other kill each other by the decision of old people who know each other and hate each other but don't kill each other…..poor innocent civilians and soldiers die..no one will benefit ..nothing is left only history in books remain

  12. At the moment Ukrainian forces and their president Vladimir zelenskyy should surrender to Vladimir Putin and obey whatever Putin says cuz this is the last option..today their is only one option and that's knee down to the Russians..Britian France america NATO they are dragging Ukrainians into a big trouble..and I know Ukrainians have no idea what will happen to them in the next 72 to 96 hours..Russians will vanish them and millions will die if a single ICBM is fired..Consequences will be terrifying and then no one even Boris Johnson macron Biden NATO will fight against Russia and their Allies..Russia Iran North Korea China Siberia Pakistan are the strongest Allies and they will help each other if it's necessary so I think zelenskyy should think about his innocent civilians..Kill ur EGO zelenskyy and save ur country 🙏and people u can't beat Russia even with the help of 30 NATO countries in the coming 2 decades

  27. Where is the justice? Turkey used chemical weapons on the Kurds few months back amd noone cares. Turkey is Russian Ally. Sad part is that Turkey is part of NATO. Turkey considers the YPG to be a terrorist group linked to the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party, or PKK, that has waged an insurgency against Turkey since 1984, leading to the deaths of tens of thousands of people.

    However, the YPG forms the backbone of U.S.-led forces in the fight against the Islamic State group in Syria. The U.S. has not been happy with Turkey's previous incursions into Syria.
    Turkey made ISIS to get rid of the Kurds. The Kurds are the native people. The real people of Anatolia which is called Turkey now. So sad! Look up Kurd talks to Turks, you'd be surprised the amount of racism and hate against the Kurds. Look up who are the Kurds. 50 plus million Kurds without nation. The Mongols came here 800 years ago and took the land from Kurds, Greeks, Armenians, Assyrians and now they want to kick out all the Kurds and kill them so they can take the rest of it. UN needs to stop giving Turky the right to kill and imprison the Kurds for being a Kurd and wanting to be a seperate nation because of all the racism and injustice. Don't believe me? Look up Kurd talks to Turks 2. My family too personally we were attacked and told to go back to our country. We were thrown rocks at and got death threats. So where do we belong really? As a Kurd we don't belong in any of these parts. We need our own state as it should have been after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. West messed up and gave everyone their own country. The Greeks, the Persians, the Arabs, and the Turks who were there only in the last 800 years. The kurds, we were here for 1000's of years and we don't have a country. So sad 😞
    I am sorry for the Ukraininas to go through this but we have been through the same and worse and noone cares. People forget. They don't care if it doesn't effect them personally. There will always be that other side that thinks it's better than you and can just come take your land and kill your people and imprison them. Turkey is now in Northern Syria where the Kurds are. Noone cares haha. Turkey is proudly part of NATO. How?

  29. "While Russia stumbles, Ukraine stands firm." Let's hope the US is smart enough to provide sufficient support to a government and a people who deserve it. Quite a departure from the sleaze merchants that the US usually supports.

  31. I really don’t think the UK and USA general public tax payer wants to provide weapons of mass destruction to the Ukraine. Rather than ignore Putin, we want Biden and Johnson to re-open talks with Russia. It’s the UK and USA who are prolonging this war and actually help killing the Ukraine citizens. Let’s STOP the west from interfering with other countries cultures… isn’t that then actual democracy instead of the USA/ NATO/ UN dictating what their version of democracy is?
