Overreach, you know, using the art of assume to do something stupid applies as Putin has done just that by turning the attack on the Ukraine into Russia's Vietnam based on the fierce resistance Ukrainians are putting up against all odds. Russia had legitimate concerns regarding NATO and the Ukraine but the response against this remote possibility goes beyond reason, an initiative that will negatively impact Russia like what Vietnam did to America.
Ukraine’s defense forces, outmanned and outgunned, waged a ferocious resistance to the Russian invasion on Saturday, battling to keep control of the capital, Kyiv, and other cities. There was intense street fighting, and bursts of gunfire and explosions could be heard across Kyiv. Here are the latest developments:
The Kremlin said that Russian forces were resuming their advance on Ukraine on Saturday, claiming that President Vladimir V. Putin had ordered a pause on Friday while possible talks with Ukraine were being considered. Russia has established attack lines into three cities: Kyiv in the north, Kharkiv in the northeast and Kherson in the south.
Videos and photos showed a residential building struck by a missile in southwestern Kyiv, about 1.5 miles from Sikorsky Memorial Airport. At least six people were injured and dozens more evacuated, according to emergency services.
President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine said in a video that his country’s fighters had “withstood and successfully repelled enemy attacks.”
Mayor Vitali Klitschko of Kyiv announced a curfew extension, warning that “all civilians who are on the street during the curfew will be considered members of the enemy’s sabotage and reconnaissance groups.”
Across Ukraine, people huddled in air-raid shelters, lined up at bank machines and stocked up on essentials.
