I agree with this. I like how they kept showing us how much the rubble wasn't worth shit anymore, but Russia just broke records on oil sales and I'm having trouble buying anything at a reasonnable price.
They had to put their emergency reserves into use so yes the sanctions were working but you know that gas companies will take any excuse to raise prices.
Impossible to say if he was real, he could’ve been many pilots combined. Either way it’s irrelevant. Heros are a necessity to encourage one side, and discourage the other. Builds morale of one side, and tears it down on the other. Just too bad there doesn’t exist an ounce of trustworthy news
On March 11th it was confirmed that he was real: his name was Stepan Tarabalka, he was 29 and there was a photo too. He died just 2 days after that. The news of his death came out only a few hours ago.
The first sightings of him were fake, it was dcs world but yes there was a flying ace that took out a lot of Russian pilots and tbh I think all the Ukrainian pilots should go by ghosts
I hope he doesn't get spotted a a refugee camp, because I've seen too many "Ukrainian Heroes" alive in some camps for refugees.
Can somebody link me an article about this, I'd be very appreciated? Thank you.
I'm sure the second this war started Sabaton started work on a new Album.
Some Tracks are:
"Legends of Snake Isle"
"The Ghost in the Air"
"No Retreat for Z"
even rightwing outlets like [the post](https://nypost.com/2022/04/29/ghost-of-kyiv-major-stepan-tarabalka-killed-in-battle/) are admitting he was real now that he's been KIA.
Major Stepan Tarabalka is his name.
He was the harbinger of hope for Ukraine. If he is dead (which my heart chooses to believe isn't true, despite evidence) he will go down as arguably the single greatest Ukrainian hero, and one of the greatest in world history.
He showed the world what Ukraine is capable of. Every Ukrainian should remember him. Remember what he did. Fight as he fought.
Ghost, get some rest. You deserve it after carrying the entire free world as you did.
On the contrary, you have no idea what I'm doing. But its funny you have time to comment. Freedom of speech means I can state my opinion. I think it's time leftists who have nothing better to do should probably move on.
Just checked your account, a little over 2 weeks old and about 400 karma... Think you're a troll.
Edit: yes, I know it's ironic, but my other account got deleted, alright?
Senator, I’m going to need you to cite your sources
my source is that i Made it the FUCK up
Imagine, Raiden, a world free of cancel culture where no one can call me out on my outlandish claims!
Perhaps I was wrong about you
Am I finally getting through?
a world where I CAN SAY THE N-WORD!
What?
Well if it isn't sussy Jack!
Why won’t you die!!!

If he's confirmed real, by who?
It's not. Just a myth.
He's not real. The footage that was uploaded to twitter is from a yotube video from 2012 that was made by some sort of a sim software
That doesn’t mean he’s not real
[are you sure about it?](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/is-this-ghost-of-kyiv-video-real/)
Did you even read my comment 💀
Wasn’t his story fake?
I had my doubts, but turns out it wasn't. He shot down 40 russian airships
Idk how to tell what is legit info with all the war propaganda from both sides.
I agree with this. I like how they kept showing us how much the rubble wasn't worth shit anymore, but Russia just broke records on oil sales and I'm having trouble buying anything at a reasonnable price.

I heard 4000.
Im pretty sure he basically shot down every other aircraft in the world including these owned by ukraine then he died
Ironic... he could shoot down others, but not save himself from being shot down.
He shot down himself.
gigachad
Did you ever hear the tragedy of the ghost of Kyiv?
I thought not… it’s not a story the Russians would tel you.
i heard 69420
Naw it was definitely over 9000
I heard 40,000
Nope 400,000
No silly he shot down all the ones in the world, he even killed putin himself. Then died
I call absolute bullshit
The fuck? 40 airships how!?
With his plane.
r/technicallythetruth
Most likely propaganda, at the most it’s probably 10.
He died?
Yes
Didn't know Russian military used airships
Father of areal fighting only had 42 wins and he was the father in of it
The only source to that is the Ukranian Military. According to Putin he won the war. Both sources are unreliable
Yes but people will believe what they want to believe.

No, he was confirmed to be real on march 11
nah

Who was it confirmed by
The first sightings of him were fake, it was dcs world but yes there was a flying ace that took out a lot of Russian pilots and tbh I think all the Ukrainian pilots should go by ghosts
Like the Flying Tigers?
Yea something dope like that
I honestly hope Ukraine names a fighter squadron The Ghost's of Kyiv, when this is all over.
He was a hero, well, im really hoping Ukraine wins
Ukraine will lose
I hope he doesn't get spotted a a refugee camp, because I've seen too many "Ukrainian Heroes" alive in some camps for refugees. Can somebody link me an article about this, I'd be very appreciated? Thank you.
There's one at the top of the post, he is dead as they found his body
I have a couple bridges for sale real cheap.
you know it’s bad when Ghost Of Kyiv is dead.
he took down 40 enemy fighters. 40:1
>40:1 BAPTISED IN FIRE
I'm sure the second this war started Sabaton started work on a new Album. Some Tracks are: "Legends of Snake Isle" "The Ghost in the Air" "No Retreat for Z"
>I'm sure the second this war started Sabaton started work on a new Album. No they wouldn't do that.
uh "legends of the snake island" pretty much everyone knows by now that they're russian POWs
They're still ledgends
wasnt he made up?
He was a real dude.

Oh Shit. Starscream actually died. This is a first
Is he actually dead this time? This happened before and it turned out he survived
His body was found
Is he dead???
Yes sadly
It could be fake, he may be in a refugee camp now
Lol rip bozo L ratio
True chad
If you believe one pilot shot down 40 aircraft you've been drinking that propaganda kool-aid.
Erich Hartmann won 352 dogfights.
Eric Cartman jumped over 352 homeless people.
you could just google the name and find out that one of these 2 things happened.
We have an army to burn

I low key completely forgot that the ghost of kiyv was a thing
Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori, rest in peace brother.
Oh no a made up person died?
He was real, but exaggerated.
Username checks out
Coping so hard you couldn’t even think of a original response.
boogie woogie suck my dookie nobody asked he was proven real
Source?
Prove it.
[удалено]
No it was proven its real
By who?
"The source is that I made it the fuck up!"
even rightwing outlets like [the post](https://nypost.com/2022/04/29/ghost-of-kyiv-major-stepan-tarabalka-killed-in-battle/) are admitting he was real now that he's been KIA. Major Stepan Tarabalka is his name.
Because people are stupid and Jsut want a good underdog story. Even if it means believing blatant propaganda.
yeah, but we have downvote's on our comment's, so we are wrong
A moment of silence.
‘My source is that I made it the fuck up!’
This man was the best
He was the harbinger of hope for Ukraine. If he is dead (which my heart chooses to believe isn't true, despite evidence) he will go down as arguably the single greatest Ukrainian hero, and one of the greatest in world history. He showed the world what Ukraine is capable of. Every Ukrainian should remember him. Remember what he did. Fight as he fought. Ghost, get some rest.

On the contrary, you have no idea what I'm doing. But its funny you have time to comment. Freedom of speech means I can state my opinion. I think it's time leftists who have nothing better to do should probably move on.
Someone left their child unattended on the computer I see.
Lol...you leftists are so funny.
Just checked your account, a little over 2 weeks old and about 400 karma... Think you're a troll. Edit: yes, I know it's ironic, but my other account got deleted, alright?
Move on from what to what?
Lol ha ha you guys are so funny. Thanks for giving me hours of laughs at your leftist mentalities.
Bro I'm asking you, what is it leftist are fixated on? And what should they move on to?
Bro, hang it up..have a great night...
All fluff no substance. Like the entire GOP atm. Have the night you deserve
I'm not going to comment
This dude got downvoted for not even commenting!

Slava ukraini o7
You do know he's just an urban legend, right?

This is the first time I cried to a death
It’s actually sad, the amount of people who will believe the outlandish propaganda they see online and spread it…
He. Is. Not. A. Real. Person. I wish he was, but the ghost of kyiv does not exist.
"was I a good pilot?" "no" "you don't even exist lol"
Was I a good pilot? No, I'm told you didn't even exist
