Russia invading Ukraine (NEWS/UPDATES)

Even considering how unhinged he is I just don't see him doing that? He needs the infastructure of the country as intact as possible for so many reasons.

So did Hitler, but that didn`t stop him destroying whole cities in his thirst for power.

Poland refusing to play Russia now (football) - Scotland due to play Ukraine, 24th March isn't far off. It's another little thorn in Putin's side, but it does seem so irrelevant against everything that's going on. Sad, sad times. War in europe.

It’s not irrelevant at all. It’s this kind of stuff that will cut Russia off from the rest of the world and from normality. It is money too. It’s power, it’s influence. All of this shit matters.

You literally liked the post I was taking the piss out of and then call me a bigot. Deary me.

Peel the onion matey.

No it wasn't, it was 100% a Russian armoured vehicle.

What makes you say that?

The reports I’ve read are that it was a Ukrainian Strela 10 that was taken by Russian saboteurs.

On Sky new now stacks of people making Molotovs, don't you just wish you could stamp on Putin.

The length of the line of people ready to sign up to fight man. The feeling of national pride and togetherness is unbelievable. This is something Putin will not break, and the leaders of the country are setting a shining example.

The Hungarian foreign minister posted on Facebook that Hungary is not blocking the removal of Russia from SWIFT and that it’s fake news to suggest so… I guess we’ll know next time there’s a vote on it. As it stands all EU countries now support the removal.

If they're still not controlling the airspace hopefully it means some weapons can be dropped.

All those people making Molotov Cocktails man! This is mind boggling

Just seen them on sky news, this isn’t the fight putin was expecting.

The sad thing in all this is that the majority of the Russians don’t want this either and are being sent to their deaths by a madman.

Just been watching the Ukrainians signing up in Dnipro. Men and women look tough as auld boots and even though news reporter was a bit smiley , it ain't no game to them as their stares were obvious

Majority of wars are fought between people who are geographically and culturally close to each other on the say-so of people who don't give a shit about them

There's a brilliant irony though in the threats to disrupt fuel supplies to the EU, and they run out of their own fuel not far from their own doorstep.

Too true.

Very clever move that.

I think it’s very difficult to know how someone will react when their back is against the wall. Putin’s will be before long.

Hopefully people understand now why the right to bear arms may not be the worst idea in the world.

How long is taking them to make a decision ffs, it will be finished by the time their sorted.

Flip side is that it makes you a legitimate target

That is f***ing heartbreaking. Don't have any kids myself but spent most of yesterday with me 4-year old nephew and was so grateful that he's in a country where he can simply enjoy being a kid as opposed to having to hide in bomb shelters or seeing conflict in the streets.

That could be my grandkids from the back

I think we all know deep down how he will react. Hes 70 and has nothing to lose.
