A Russian journalist denied her country was invading Ukraine during an interview with i24NEWS, while footage of the invasion played beside her.
“Let’s get one thing straight, you’re saying troops, however, there has not been any proof of actual troops going into Ukraine,” Moscow journalist Tatiana Kukhareva said on Thursday. Because of this, she said Russia’s actions could not be called an “invasion” and that her government was only attacking “military targets” through airstrikes.
Footage of Russian tanks in Ukraine began playing while Kukhareva spoke, which she did address.
“What you’re showing now, those, unfortunately, the pictures that … cannot be verified that those are troops going into Ukraine,” she said. “There is no verification.”

CNN’s Matthew Chance documented Russian troops taking over an airport just 15 miles outside of Ukraine’s capital on Thursday morning.
“We are here at the Antonov airport, which is about 25 kilometers, 15 miles or so out of the center. These troops you can see over here, they are Russian airborne forces,” Chance said. “They have taken this airport.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized the independence of two separatist-controlled regions in eastern Ukraine on Tuesday and deployed troops to the territories under the pretext of “peacekeeping functions.”
On Thursday morning, Putin announced Russia would begin “a special military operation in Donbas,” which was followed minutes later by reports of explosions in Ukraine’s capital, Kyiv. Putin said he did not want to occupy Ukraine but “demilitarize and de-Nazify” it.
in 10... well done
Reverse Baghdad Bob - the invader says there is no invasion vs. the invaded
Was this the communist journalist, Ienniger Pschkaki?
Baghdad Babushka! She is auditioning for a job at CNN of “mostly peaceful protests” fame.
Fiery but peaceful invasion.
Much of CNNs film footage has been debunked as archived footage from Syria and 2014 fighting.
LOL. Putinists are so brainwashed. There is film of a CNN crew standing next a gun battle a few miles from Kyiv today. Ukrainians claim they destroyed Russian airborne units and retook the airport near Kyiv. I guess we’ll see tomorrow what the truth is.
What’s sad is there was a CNN crew standing literally feet from a Russian soldier fire team today near Kyiv. For once CNN is not fake news.
Hmmm... interesting.
Got some source links to the debunking?
I think you forgot to take your pills today.
Some of its up on truth social.
No I’m just aware of what is going on in the world. Its very different than what the mind farmed public is being fed on CNN and Fox News.
Sounds like many people here on this site...
Putin isn’t building up forces around Ukraine!
*Putin builds up forces around Ukraine.
Putin doesn’t want war!
*Putin publicaly states military threats.
Putin has no intention of attacking Ukraine!
*Putin launches missiles and aircraft against Ukraine.
Putin doesn’t want to invade Ukraine!
*Putin sends tanks, artillery, and missile launchers into Ukraine.
Some people just can’t sell their property on the banks of denial.
👍
So is this Syria or 2014? Asking for a friend.

You’ll never get a straight answer. That FReeper after claiming for weeks/months that Putin would not invade, now claims that it’s not an invasion but “surgical strikes”
“We’ve always been at war with Eastasia, Winston.”...................
The Russians are definitely conducting a surgical military operation in the Ukraine to remove the Gesarian mafia. Somebody had to do it. its been a cabal hot bed for years. Money laundering, child trafficking you name it. The Russians are not invading with an occupying force. They want the Ukraine like we want Puerto Rico. It would be a huge welfare drag on Putin’s economy.
I watched 4 live cams of Kiev last night. No sign of anything happening there. No damage, no smoke, no military hardware rolling on the streets, all the lights were on, a few cars driving around. Very normal looking.
If you understand that there is an alliance led by Trump and our military or a portion of it that is taking the cabal out around the world then you would understand that Putin has joined this alliance. He has always been anti NWO and he does not want it in Russia.
If you don’t understand that this war against the cabal is happening then nothing I can say will get you to turn off the mainstream media and their ridiculous lies. If for no other reason you must be scratching your head at Trump’s tepid response to this so called invasion. Maybe because he knows what’s going on.
LOL. This is the willful ignorance that this FReeper posts on FR. No links to cameras that shows what the FReeper claims. And when evidence disproves the fake news that this FReeper posts? Crickets.
I've never heard of this organization, and Google doesn't know about them either. Is that a typo, or is there a link that can clarify who this is?
