A prominent Ukrainian air unit responded with delight to the attempted assassination of former US President Donald Trump, who has criticized Western support for Kiev's proxy war against Russia.
The social media channel of Ukraine’s 79th Air Assault Brigade celebrated the shooting of former US President Donald Trump Saturday, according to a Sputnik contributor, appearing to jokingly take credit for the assassination attempt.
Security analyst Mark Sleboda made the revelation on Sputnik’s The Critical Hour program Monday. “As soon as [the shooting] happened, the first thing that popped into my mind was, hmm, Mirotvorets,”M said host Garland Nixon, referring to the Ukrainian government-connected website that appears to endorse the killing of those it deems enemies of Ukraine. “Was it crazy for me to think that it could have been Ukraine immediately without any information to suspect that Ukraine could have been behind it?”
“It's not crazy because actually the Kiev regime's official social media channel of the 79th [Air Assault] Brigade, they celebrated it,” said Sleboda. “They thought it was their own [intelligence].”
A post on the Ukrainian 79th Air Assault Brigade’s Telegram channel appeared to satirically take credit for the assassination attempt, comparing it to the killing of Russian philosopher Aleksandr Dugin’s daughter Darya Dugina and the bombing of Russia’s Crimean Bridge.

Another post included an image of the dead would-be assassin, mocking him as an “incel.”

ZEEPERS a little embarrassed? Nah!
Laugh it up, the graveyard tain is about to stop.
Gravey train.
More Russian propaganda.
Fire the man, toss him out of break him into the ranks to hold on to the line in the face of Russian advances! If this man isn’t punished—not one more dollar to Ukraine!
Just how much taxpayer money has been sent to these nit wits? And how much more?
It has all the hallmarks...
While I don’t trust the media, especially as it pertains to Ukraine and Russia stories, this wouldn’t surprise me at all.
The current regime in Ukraine is very Biden-friendly. I believe Putin favors Biden too.
Neither of them seem to want Trump to put a stop to the bloodshed.
Caption this.
Spigot about to be turned off!
F the corrupt elites of Ukraine!
They have stolen enough US TAX PAYER MONIES!
I’m sure this will be noted come January 21 by 47.
Hypocrisy at its worst. The FRussians are the only ones that can make the leftist media look fair by comparison.
You’re more right the first time.
I always trust them yankees at Sputnik news.
GFY!! We care more about our own country than Ukraine.

Wait until they get sent to the Russian front and see how happy they are
