Brian Williams will remember himself as a hero at this life threatening event.
Good thing someone was available to take pictures of their “harrowing” experience. 🤣
“...the steering wheel, and dashboard had disintegrated.”
Gulp.
“...we started screaming we were journalists”
There was a brief hiatus in the barrage, but then we heard someone give a command to reload.
(Sorry, that is in very poor taste.)
maybe a big white press flag might help...
Almost like they are a tv crew or something..
BOOM! Maybe they learned war is not a video game, now.
Shades of Geraldo Rivera, that famous war correspondent!

Bring up the grenades 🤪
Thank God they still had the courage to film themselves as they “ran for their lives.” Otherwise I’d never believe this story. /s 🤣
Thats insane! Something tells me the “PRESS” written in English might have annoyed someone
Still funny though, lol.
“(Sorry, that is in very poor taste.)”
With some Cajun seasoning, it’s downright tasty!
What did your trusted contacts tell the Russians?
Salute your very bad taste! lol

Vlad doesn’t care much about journalists, how many Russian journalists does their Army have prancing around.? Besides, Vlad told all Kiev residents to leave the city by a date ( two days ago I believe) after which they were told if remaining to stay in their houses and if caught on the streets they may get shot.
A few other videos circulating, they all begin by “ We were approaching a checkpoint, then all of a sudden…” The commonality, they were all leaving past the deadline. Yes Johnny, war is hell. Everyone suffers, both good and bad.
I think it was them who interviewed me back in the day (before the First Gulf War) after the Kuwait invasion.
I was working at Yuma Proving Ground at the time. We were doing support for what became the invasion.
