Sounds like the Ukrainians missed Patton’s halftime speech...

Brave but begs the question why weren’t explosives at least placed last week? In war oversights are paid for in blood. Imagine for patriotic Ukrainians, unlike globalist Democrats, sabotaging your own infrastructure is a difficult emotional task.

The story came from a Twitter account here:

you can see the happy face of the alleged hero.

myths of heroes are common tools in wartime propaganda.. but usually they are at least somewhat plausible.

Well, because this was reported on Fox, standby for the FR contingent that believes all news is propaganda now.

Horatius at the bridge.

Except that Horatius was able to swim to safety.

It would appear that ol’ Vlad, for now, has greatly under estimated the Ukrainians.

If this fails, he’s done. No más for him. He has backed himself into a corner

"Shakun did not have time to flee the blast zone before detonating the explosives, and informed his battalion that he would be blowing it up regardless."

A extraordinary act of courage, and to be honored when one is doing so justly, and is not the same thing as Islamic suicide bombers (Inc.). In the former case the soldier did not intend to die, nor targeting innocent persons, but was in a situation in which his own death was required in order to combat evil.

You can wire those things up beforehand and detonate remotely but it wouldn’t make for such an exciting tale of self destruction 🤪
