Incredible. It appears Ukrainians struck some of the largest power generation hubs in Crimea. Sure, diesel generators can help mitigate the consequences… provided there's any fuel to keep them running 😆

Ukrainians and Belarusians are very, very close to each other as people. Their languages are mutually intelligible, they share the same history of living for centuries in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, and thousands of Belarusians are in Ukraine today, fighting against Russia.
Belarus is not Russia. There is no domestic constituency in Belarus for a war with Ukraine. Such a conflict would not only destroy the Belarusian economy but also endanger Lukashenko’s rule from within.
Which is why he wants to avoid it.

16.07.2014, Gukovo, Russia: A resident of Gukovo—which lies directly on the border with Ukraine—films (48.07338, 39.92583) the Russian army attacking Ukrainian army positions from inside Russia.

“In the early months of the occupation, children played a role in the resistance. They slipped through checkpoints easily, took instantly to encrypted apps, and were extraordinarily brave. But the risks they took were no less grave than those faced by adults. An errant social-media post—or simply “liking” content supportive of Ukraine—was enough to get a child hauled in for interrogation. Those sessions could involve unspeakable violence, especially for girls. I interviewed one who was only 11 when her village near Kherson had been occupied. Implicated in “resistance” activities, she was dragged from her home. As we began our conversation, she apologized for her stutter. “I did not used to have this problem,” she told me, “until the Russians took me to the basement.”

Russian blogger Nikita Tretyakov is having a day

"I don’t want to even suspect that instead of a carefully planned and organized special operation, Russia could get drawn into a trench war that would last longer than the First and Great Patriotic Wars, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that the enemy could have so surpassed our air defense system that it could hit strategic defense and industry objects almost every day with missiles and drones, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that after five years of war, a great energy power would not be able to protect its oil industry and would be forced to impose fuel limits on the population, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that the country that once opened the world to space could not overcome the lag in communication and reconnaissance satellites, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that a country with advanced development in information and telecommunications technologies could launch a campaign to block the Internet, including for its own troops and the military-industrial complex, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that Russia, with all its fleets, special forces, and marines, could not or would not defend its tankers from enemy pirate seizures, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that a strategic plan to counter the expansion of NATO could have led to Sweden and Finland joining the alliance and the emergence of NATO bases on the approaches to St. Petersburg, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did.

I don’t want to even suspect that our country could have ended up in the deepest crisis since the end of the last century due to the inability to recognize the seriousness of the current situation, due to the fear of implementing emergency measures designed and prepared for an emergency situation, I don’t want to even think about it, but it turned out the way it did."

The world's richest man is desperately trying to rewrite history regarding his destruction of USAID.

Elon Musk's sudden pivot to damage control proves he knows exactly how devastating his actions were, no matter how much he tries to spin it now.

In his latest gaslighting campaign, Musk claims he only stepped in to ensure there was no fraud, leaning heavily on fabricated narratives about Ukraine and COVID to shield himself from criticism. But the internet remembers everything. We all saw him brag on X about sending USAID to the wood chipper with zero regard for the global fallout.

His malicious cuts dismantled life-saving food, medical, and security infrastructure around the world. A peer-reviewed study published in The Lancet warns that the defunding of USAID will result in a staggering 14 million preventable deaths by 2030, including 4.5 million children under the age of five. Hundreds of thousands have already died. They are dying from entirely treatable conditions like malnutrition, malaria, and a lack of HIV medication because PEPFAR and global health networks were frozen overnight.

Naturally, given the chaotic nature of humanitarian crises, it is impossible to audit every single one of these deaths in real time. But while the precise statistics will be debated by academics for years, the big picture is inescapable: when you suddenly choke off medicine and food to millions of vulnerable people, catastrophic suffering and a massive loss of life are the inevitable result.

No amount of whitewashing by Musk will change the facts, and history will remember him for the lives he destroyed

When I was in Ukraine a few months ago, a Ukrainian civilian who was abducted by the Russians and tortured so badly he lost all of his teeth told us -- in a public setting with other Ukrainians around -- about the horrors of the Russian captivity in a flawless, accentless Russian

@mindbanx @Mylovanov @nyu Putin has sent 400.000 Russians to die for nothing, just failed imperial daydreams. He keeps sending them. 100s of thousands crippled. Demonization well deserved.
