Huge explosion lights up Kyiv night sky during Russian air strike

SHOCKING moment a huge explosion blast lights up the night sky over Kyiv during a brutal Russian air strike that devastated the city last night.
Footage seen on a building site’s mounted CCTV camera shows the area illuminated by the light of the blast at approximately 04:20 local time (02:20GMT).
Eyewitness videos shared by local residents and a livestream video facing a different part of the city, viewed by Reuters, also capture the explosion.

I thought we had left this kind of naked aggression back in the second world war. But, then when one starts to think through all the other incidents, perhaps not. Think of Cambodia, Vietnam, and more recently the bombing of Baghdad. The image of the young Iraqi boy left limbless always haunts me. I pray for all the people of Ukraine and also the Russian conscript army. Judging by the picture of two Russian soldiers that were captured, they are only boys. It is very true, wars are waged by old men and fought by the young. May the Almighty bring some sense to this madness.

Feal sorry for the Ukrainians that are being used as pawns by uncivilised NATO warmongers. These wonderful Ukrainians will sadly lose their lives whilst NATO gloats. During the 1962 Cuba issue, USSR is portrayed (in the west) as the aggressor, they wanted to place their weapons on the USA border. The defender, USA raised their right to defend their border. In response, the aggressor, USSR, withdrew and this prevented loss of life. The aggressor today is NATO who want to place their weapons on the Russian border. Like USA in 1962, Russia has raised their right to defend their border. NATO WARMONGERS, the aggressors today, are refusing to withdraw and are therefore responsible for every life that is lost. Uncivilised NATO warmongers are also fully at fault as they broke 14 treaty agreements that Russia let slide to avoid loss of life. Now NATO warmongers and were about to weaponize Ukraine. Reluctantly on this occasion Russia (who stood back for 8 years) stood up and finally said NO! to uncivilised NATO warmongers. I am ashamed that my British nation behaves like this, we have learnt nothing from our vile colonial past. They say there are no winners in a war, but NATO warmongers will talk about their victory for years to come, they will see themselves as winners as only expendable Ukrainians and Russians die. They will gloat about how they successfully goaded Russia into a war that destroyed their economy
