The episode is a rare example of disagreement among some of the Kremlin's strongest supporters.

"off the face of the Earth" in response to Ukrainian shelling were met with condemnation by one of his guests on Russia-1.'s reporter Julia Davis shared a clip from Solovyov's talk show where Yaakov Kedmi, an Israeli politician and diplomat, calls the host's ideas to bomb Ukrainian cities into submissions"obscene."

"It's obscene, it's not constructive, it's criminal to bomb peaceful cities. These words, 'To wipe Kyiv and Kharkiv off the face of the Earth,' they should not be uttered, especially in Russia," Kedmi said. Russian TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov smiles during the ceremony of the annexation of four Ukrainian regions at the Grand Kremlin Palace on September 30, 2022 in Moscow, Russia. His calls for Moscow to bomb Kyiv and Kharkiv were condemned by a fellow pundit on Russia-1."There were no wars in history, where the bombing of a peaceful city, of a civilian population, ever led to some kind of results on the battlefield.

Solovyov, who had been listening quietly, didn't appear upset by Kedmi's comment, quickly saying:"Fine, then we'll keep responding on the level of a girl in the 5th grade, who's crying that our peaceful cities are being bombed." Meanwhile in Russia: a rare moment of sanity on Russian state TV, when one panelist was finally fed up with Vladimir Solovyov's threats to wipe Kyiv or Kharkiv off the face of the earth.
