A Ukrainian millionaire says he asked his country's military to bomb his mansion after he saw it had been seized and occupied by Russian troops.

Andrey Stavnitser, the CEO of the Ukrainian IT company, TransInvestService, told ITV's "Good Morning Britain" that he saw Russian forces, including a tornado rocket launcher, move onto his property near Irpin on March 5 via a security camera. Irpin is a town outside the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv.

"They destroyed most of the cameras inside the house, but there was one small amateur webcam," he said.

1. It's beyond me why Putin thinks he can defeat these people

My house has Russians in it. Fucking bomb it!

2. I imagine there was a certain amount of horrible, but

deep satisfaction in watching the Ukrainian army bring it with the biggest, baddest burglar alarms they had on hand.

3. All Ukrainians have fully grasped the concept that material things don't matter if you don't have

Freedom.

At this point, I’m sure every Ukrainian citizen knows someone who has been murdered, raped, carted off to Siberia, unalived in fighting. The brave soldiers holding on to that small piece of Mariupol know this is their Alamo. They can die fighting or suffer a worse fate at the hands of the russians.
