Il nuovo comandante in capo dell’Ucraina Drapatyi è in guerra dalla rivoluzione pro-UE Maidan del 2014. È stato il suo veicolo a saltare drammaticamente un posto di blocco nemico durante la liberazione di Mariupol! Filmati iconici di quando era ancora maggiore

I still can’t wrap my head around how some people arre dressed. They’re wearing what my grandparents wore during Communism in the 80’s but they’re living in 2014. Even down to the red dyed hair.
It just puts things into perspective. The Soviet stranglehold is so strong for some people.
That’s a guy who doesn’t fuck around
Glory to the heroes!
The only reason the tank stayed stable is because of the enourmous weight of the crew’s balls
*”General Drapatyi is a commander forged in combat and one of the finest examples of Ukraine’s new generation of officers. He rose through the ranks on the battlefield, bringing extensive experience and a deep understanding of the situation across many sectors of the front. He also brings a team capable of driving positive change, and I believe this team can significantly strengthen our military capability.”*

I hope he gets to liberate Mariupol once more.
I remember seeing this clip in “Primo Victoria” memes

Onward to Moscow.
Saw this the other day. I can’t believe people have hidden something so cool for so long from me
“Enemy checkpoint” is some unarmed civilians standing in protest around a makeshift barricade?
Is that guy throwing rocks against an IFV?
I can see only civilians throwing stuff at BTRs. OP, what enemy are you talking about?
If only those people realised what kind of hell and destructions is waiting Mariupol. I wonder how many of them died in the ruins of city.
Insert that gif of Obélix passing through Roman’s legions
Hmmm, so they were fighting civilians back than, no military personel on video…?

An ethnic Ukrainian professor at a Canadian university, he did extensive work 10 years ago on the events of 2014 on the Maidan.
It was a coup d’état, in which “protesters” shot their own people to carry out a false-flag operation and accuse the elected president, Yanukovych, of killing civilians.
Drapatyi was then suppressing civilian protesters in Donbas who disagreed with the Maidan authorities.
All these sad events ultimately led to the war of 2022.
He needs a PR manager, though: https://youtu.be/W8DZMpx–UA?t=714
They looked so happy waiting for Ukranian defenders
In 2014? Damn, how many Ukraine patriots died during that time. It was pure bravery going against Russia at that time because the odds of anything good for any Ukraine was bad.
When you apply for a job and instead bringing your cv you bring this video
Wow, almost killed some civilians
I remember this. This whole period I watched on livestream for days on end. I became an avid fan of Ukraine during this time and feel affinity because of it
Enemy were people of Matiupol
There are only civilians around, and I don’t see any people with weapons. Is this brave major fighting a womans on an armored personnel carrier?
That looks more like a road block than a checkpoint. A checkpoint probably would have been easier.
