😱Zelenskyy did NOT expect this from the soldiers! Look what happened in front of everyone - War & Politics 24



Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy delivered a greeting address to Ukraine’s defenders, congratulating the missile forces and artillery troops on their professional holiday. He praised their skill and achievements, emphasizing that Ukrainian missiles no longer have “unreachable targets,” even deep in the enemy’s rear.

The President thanked every commander and soldier for the effective coordination of drones, artillery, and missiles in combat, noting that if Russia does not stop the war, the strikes will intensify. - 12/06/2025.

America had hero’s to defend against the war coming down on US. “Nah, I don’t do politics”.
“I can’t take time to vote, both sides suck anyway”.
God ain’t Blessin America dumb asses. Stop singing about it and printing it in everything.
Sure seems Satan is.
