The video shows a news report of Ukrainians preparing Molotov cocktails to fight Russians as Putin's invasion of Ukraine enters its second week.

The video has been viewed over 400,000 times and people praised it on social media, but it is also just one of many times the country has shown it has its finger on the pulse in terms of social media.

Is it any wonder the country has a sense of humour, when they are led by a former comedian who was filmed playing the piano with his penis?
