First day of the Russian-organized 4-day-referendum in the Kherson Region (82% ethnic Ukrainians) on whether Kherson should become part of Russia.
Armed Chechen soldiers of the Russian Army go to the homes of Ukrainians to collect their votes.
This photo should go around the world!

The apartment she lived in was completely destroyed. Kateryna had three cats and now rescuers are trying to find two more Another telling face of the war... which the occupiers are waging against the civilian population. A face that those who still doubt whether to help Ukraine or give weapons...

Украинскую журналистку Викто��ию Рощину, попавшую в российский плен летом 2023 года, жестоко пытали. На теле журналистки были ножевые ранения, она весила до 30 килограммов, а сотрудники колонии прятали ее от проверок, говорится в фильме-расследовании "Последнее задание Вики" издания "Слідство.Інфо".
Журналистам удалось выяснить, что сначала Рощину удерживали в незаконных местах заключения на оккупированной территории Запорожской области, а затем перевезли в Таганрог. Сокамерница Виктории Рощиной рассказала, что девушку также пытали током. "Она не говорила сколько раз, но говорила, что была вся синяя", - вспоминает она, уточняя, что ток могли подключать Виктории к ушам.
Последний раз украинскую журналистку видели 8 сентября 2024 года, когда ее вывели из камеры в неизвестном направлении. 10 октября отец девушки получил письмо из Минобороны РФ, в котором без уточнения подробностей утверждалось, что Виктория умерла 19 сентября в российском плену https://t.co/VrlaqQwRGO
As Erasmus said, "The less talent they have, the more pride, vanity and arrogance they have. All these fools, however, find other fools who applaud them."
Rory Stewart summarized it perfectly when he said;
“Was it for this that the U.S. spent 80 years building power and alliances? Not to be a force for good. But instead to impoverish neighbors, threaten those it protected, rob minerals from war torn countries and break its promise to 100s of millions of the poorest in the world?”
Trump has not only cut off military aid already appropriated, he has also lifted sanctions on Russia. So what did Putin, an indicted war criminal do to earn this reward from the US? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! The President of the United States is rewarding one of America’s most dangerous adversaries for murdering 153,000 innocent Ukrainians. He is rewarding a man whose soldiers raped women and young girls. A man who was party to the execution of men and boys. Their only crime? To be Ukrainian.
Trump has in the words of the Kremlin, ‘aligned’ the U.S. with a communist thug, brutalizing an ally whose soldiers died on the battlefields of Iraq alongside his own.
To say I feel sick to the stomach would be an understatement. I have no words to articulate just how I feel right now.
As with everything else, Trump has used executive orders to circumvent the legislative process, He has decided to use ‘impoundment’ to deliberately misinterpret Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution, by abusing the Take Care Clause. This states the chief executive “shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed.” This needs to be challenged IMMEDIATELY in court.
Trump’s not stupid, he knows a legal challenge will mean the aid can stay on hold long enough for him to hold a gun to Zelenskyy’s head and force him to sign a deal to extort his country’s mineral rights. While an indicted war criminal partners with America, to carve up Ukraine. Is this what Trump calls a just and lasting peace?
I don’t know who America is anymore. Our young men and women died in Afghanistan and Iraq after coming to the aid of a nation in distress. This nation is now aiding and abetting an indicted war criminal to rape an ally and sovereign country. Is this what they gave their lives for? It is beyond disgusting, but Trump would just say they were ‘suckers and losers’.
Europe and the rest of the free world needs to unequivocally condemn the actions of this sociopathic thug. We can talk diplomacy all day long. Trump doesn’t care about diplomacy. He has already demonstrated he doesn’t even care about the rule of law in his own country. Which bit of the man is an unrepentant convicted criminal are people struggling with?
It’s time to build a coalition of the willing, to stop two criminals from dismantling the free world. Trump has decided to declare war on the world in revenge for Zelenskyy not digging up dirt on Joe Biden in 2019, that’s who this man is. If we force Zelenskyy to step down what next? Who will be the next leader Trump wants to remove?
It’s time to forget America and take ownership of the Ukraine situation. If we fail, Putin WILL regroup and the Baltic States will be next. We should not wait for Trump to leave NATO allowing him to use US membership as leverage. He should be expelled. While he remains in the alliance, he is Putin’s fox in the hen house and this represents an existential threat to global security.
We have reached an inflection point which will be discussed by historians for generations to come. This is Britain’s 1939 Poland moment and Keir Starmer has the opportunity right here, right now, to put together a leadership team to defeat the threat to all of us.
Tonight Trump will address the world in the State of the Union. His book of lies for the nation. Time for Democrats to send a message. Every Democrat member should enter the chamber wrapped in a Ukrainian flag 🇺🇦to demonstrate to the world that this is not who America is
This is sadly what America has become.

Близько п’яти годин під завалами будинку у Запоріжжі провела дівчина, обіймаючи свого кота. Провела з вірою, що ї�� врятують🙏
Квартира, в якій вона жила, повністю зруйнована. Катерина мала трьох котів і зараз рятувальники намагаються знайти ще двох
Three years ago today, Putin's tanks rolled into Ukraine, and Russian aircraft began bombing the country.
Trump is lying. Russia started the war, not Ukraine.
Putin is a dictator, not Zelensky.
Президент Франции Макрон: "Во-первых, Украина в первую очередь должна получить компенсацию. Во-вторых, всем тем, кто заплатил за помощь, должна возместить ущерб не Украина, а Россия, потому ��то она начала войну".
У ТРАМПА ЧТО-ТО С ЕБАЛОМ
I don’t want to hear any Republicans talk about “freedom” unless they have the guts to call out Trump for the lies that he is telling about Putin and Ukraine.
It was Russia that started the war, not Ukraine.
Putin is the dictator, not Zelensky.
Три роки назад па був першим, кому я подзвонила. Він одразу зібрався і поїхав за мною до Харкова. Це лише на день відсрочило його долучення до війська. Фото з квітня 22го, ще навіть у своїй звичайній сорочці.
Згадайте його, інших, кого забрала від нас русня⬇️
