Heroes never die

[Maria Avdeeva @maria_avdv]

Once again Russia came to kill us.
25 killed in Kyiv.
Dozens of ballistic missiles fired at the city.
Tomorrow is a day of mourning 💔

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

EU countries are still buying Russian gas & supply Russia with raw materials.

This is where their money goes: burying civilians under rubble in Kyiv.

Europe is facilitating this.

[Zarina Zabrisky 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @ZarinaZabrisky]

A brave person I knew was attacked by a Russian drone a few hours ago in Kherson. He died in a hospital.

Two hours later, a hospital was shelled and damaged. A doctor was killed and a nurse injured.

Russians kill people with drones.

Stop human safari.

[Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦 @jurgen_nauditt]

Horror! The moment a Russian drone struck a swimming pool in Zaporizhzhia while swimmers were inside.

Russia: We only attack military targets.
No, you don't. You filthy terrorists attack exclusively civilian targets and have already committed over 230,000 war crimes.
Filthy scum.

[UAVoyager🇺🇦 @NAFOvoyager]

Katerina Holovko. Murdered by russia.

She was a teacher. A mother.

She was taking her son to class when a russian attack drone struck their minibus.

She died from her injuries.

Her son survived.

This is what russian terror does to Ukrainian families every single day.

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

A European capital is on fire because Russia spent the night firing missiles at civilians in their beds.

Kyiv is full of smoke. People are buried under rubble.

This is terrorism.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

The homes of innocent civilians in a European capital, bombarded by advanced military weaponry day and night by the Russian terrorist state. Europe watches and offers minimal support and many words while Ukrainians defend them and die.

[Zarina Zabrisky 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @ZarinaZabrisky]

Kherson.

Svitlana, 18, dreamed of learning Japanese and translating comic books.

She said, “In Kherson, the air is different! So good to breathe! We’ll rebuild everything!”

Yesterday, a Russian drone cut her in halves in front of her mom.

💔 7-year-old Veronika Opashnianska was killed by Russians today in the village of Shevchenko, Dnipro region.

​The family had previously fled the city of Shakhtarske due to heavy Russian shelling, seeking safety at her grandmother's home. But today, Russians struck the peaceful village with guided aerial bombs. Veronika was killed in the attack, while her 11-year-old sister Polina, her mother, grandmother, and father all sustained severe injuries.

​Pictured: Veronika and Polina.

It is important that the world does not remain silent about today’s utterly cynical Russian attack against our people. Thank you for your words of condolence and your willingness to help us. Defending against ballistic missiles is impossible without a sufficient number of missiles for Patriot systems. This is our greatest priority right now. We discussed which partners can help and how exactly. We will work on this.

Alex noted the successes of our warriors on the front. Everyone can see how the situation is shifting in Ukraine’s favor and how effective the long-range sanctions are. This is the right kind of pressure on Russia. We are looking for formats to reinvigorate diplomacy. We exchanged views on ideas that could help and coordinated our next steps.

We also discussed our bilateral defense cooperation. We are preparing to conclude important agreements in the near future. Thank you, Alex. Thank you, Finland!

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

Russia is already lying about Kyiv, pretending this was about “military targets.”

Hotels are burning. Apartment blocks are burning. Civilians are still trapped under the rubble.

I went on @SkyNews to say the obvious: Russia is talking absolute shit.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

The death toll from Russia's strike on Kyiv has risen to 25. Over 100 people injured. There might still be people under the debris.

These are not just numbers, statistics that international organizations will later put into reports to state that Russian attacks killed more civilians in Ukraine this year than ever before.

Behind each number is a person, someone's world. An irreplaceable loss, a scar on all of us.

It is so painful to see these numbers mounting up, growing, spreading because Russia is still able to continue attacking us. Russia must be stopped, by force.

In Trump’s America we can:
Give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the top 1%
Spend $1.5 trillion on the bloated Pentagon
Shell out $100 billion to bomb Iran
Provide $31 billion for Israel

But we can’t:
Enact universal healthcare
End child poverty
Abolish homelessness

Unacceptable.

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

Trump claims he's profiting so much because "the stock market’s going up" and "everybody's profiting."

That is BS.

Trump made $2.2 BILLION last year making shady stock trades and corrupt crypto deals—while workers struggled to afford basic needs.

When will enough be enough?

[Olena Halushka @OlenaHalushka]

At least eleven people were murdered in russia's massive overnight attack on Kyiv, which hit residential buildings across the city.

On mornings like this, after another sleepless night in a shelter, I genuinely wonder how anyone claiming to follow Christ can choose to stand with such remarkably naked evil.

[MFA of Ukraine 🇺🇦 @MFA_Ukraine]

Russia's continued terror against civilians in Ukraine demonstrates its unwillingness to end its war.

Kyiv survived another night of terror. At least 13 people were killed and dozens were injured.

Russia's main targets were private homes, apartment buildings, warehouses, and a hotel.

Decisions on air defense systems and missiles for Ukraine are needed right now, not later.

Decisions to increase sanctions pressure on Russia are needed right now, not later.

Decisions to increase support for Ukraine, including energy assistance, are needed right now, not later.

Every delay puts more lives at risk – lives Russia is so desperate to take.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

The response to the aftermath of Russia’s attack is still ongoing in Kyiv: first responders are clearing the rubble, searching for people, and providing assistance. Damage has been reported at more than 20 sites across the city, most of them ordinary residential buildings. There was also damage to an ambulance station, a research institute, a hotel, and businesses.

As of now, we know that, tragically, 13 people were killed in this Russian strike. My condolences to their families and loved ones. More than 90 others were injured. Everyone who needs help is receiving all necessary assistance. Five people were wounded in the Kharkiv region, including a child, and two more in the Kyiv region, where civilian infrastructure was also targeted. Overnight, Russia also struck the Sumy, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and Cherkasy regions.

In total, Russia launched more than 70 missiles of various types against Ukraine overnight, nearly half of them ballistic missiles, along with almost 500 attack drones, including jet-powered “shaheds.” The main strike was directed at Kyiv. Our air defenders managed to shoot down a significant number of the incoming targets, but not all of them.

Air defense supplies for Ukraine are an absolute and critical priority. Contributions to the PURL program remain essential – they directly help save lives. Every bilateral agreement we reach with our partners on air defense truly makes a difference. I am grateful to every leader who is helping.

It is especially important that we move forward with implementing our agreements on the production of anti-ballistic capabilities. We also very much count on a decision by the United States regarding licenses for Patriots and other forms of cooperation. These are the kinds of steps that can stop this war and prevent attacks like this. I thank everyone who stands with Ukraine, with our people, and with our efforts to protect life.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

I’m currently witnessing dozens of huge explosions in Kyiv city centre. A hotel near my apartment is on fire. Residential buildings damaged. This is not war against soldiers, it’s Russia terrorising civilians in their homes. A sad and pathetic nation.
