LOL. Not only the video is cut short, where did he say the Russians shot them?

I believe they were approaching a Russian checkpoint. Why would the Ukrainians shoot at them when their reporting was in their interests? If there was another Ukrainian checkpoint, why would they shoot at them after they passed the first?

BTW, I think a lot of these journalists are foolish wearing body armor and helmets because from a distance that makes them indistinguishable from combatants.

1) Kiev “self-defense” is a bunch of guys, half of them released prisoners who were handed rifles without ID and no training.
2) Irpen is not under Russian control.

Whether you believe or not is irrelevant.

Like these cowboys who shoot an unarmed Kievan for being out in defiance of curfew.

(Warning - Graphic) В Киеве началась жесть...(Twitter)

The Google translation is wrong. "жесть" translates as tin. But in this usage, it means "something horrific" or "Something horrific begins in Kiev."

They shoot dozens of people every day, including each other and Ukrainian troops, harass police, rob homes and businesses.

It's quite possible that someone from either side panicked, but given the fact that they were leaving Kiev and moving towards the Russians, it is more probable that it was the Russians.

And according to what I read, the Ukrainians are only in control of about 70% of Lrpen.

The insinuation in the original post that this was some kind of false flag is just ludicrous.

Sad to see you denigrate American veterans and quite indicative of where your loyalties are.

Scroll up to post #66 to see an example of the fine young men they’re risking their lives to support.

LOL. Now aren’t you becoming quite the Russian Supremacist. Are you dreaming about shoving Ukrainians into ovens, too?

Maybe “journalists” are the enemy in Ukraine as much as they are here?

The media is saying Russia has done all these things...

Had Russia not invaded, none of these things would have happened. Everything in this conflict is Russia's fault.
