The photo is symbolic for America’s complete failure.
As well as the failure of many others.😠☹️💔
So painful for the loved ones of the fallen; knowing that these sacred human remains had been held for so long on land that had been desecrated by occupier fiends that should never have been there.
I hope they’re all Ukrainian this time and that the investigators document the usual war crimes. Yes, God bless our Defenders and their loved ones. Putler will pay
Слава Україні! Героям слава!
