They’re in the northern suburbs.
Fighting has reached the northern suburbs of Kyiv after a night of missile attacks on the Ukrainian capital to prepare for a major Russian assault, as president Volodymyr Zelenskiy pleaded for more international help and tougher sanctions.
First ya gotta do us a little favor though.
Air raid sirens wailed over the city of 3 million people and heavy gunfire and explosions were heard in a residential district on Friday morning. Ukrainian officials warned that Russian military vehicles were approaching the city from the north-west.

“Horrific Russian rocket strikes on Kyiv,” Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, tweeted. “Last time our capital experienced anything like this was in 1941 when it was attacked by Nazi Germany. Ukraine defeated that evil and will defeat this one.”
Lavrov says Russia’s doing this to free Ukraine from oppression.

Just a couple of buddies hanging out at the office!
Only one of them has a well-fitting suit, though. Perhaps his friend could recommend a tailor so he doesn’t have to buy off-the-rack.
Remember Vietnam? “Unfortunately, we had to destroy the village in order to save it.”
Honestly, I can’t remember if that was said in earnest, or as satire.
