@ExpediaHelp Thank you for the quick reply!

@ExpediaHelp Hello! I just booked a series of flights via Expedia, and I'd like to confirm that my luggage will go straight through to my final destination and I won't have to exit immigration at any of my stopovers.

@FinnairHelps Hello! I booked a series of flights on Expedia. They all have Finn Air designations. I'd like to confirm my luggage will go straight through and I won't have to exit immigration at any of my stopovers.

Last night just as I was out of time on talking with @bbclysedoucet, I asked Lyse quickly about the golden dome that was behind her in the evening light. Her answer really moved me - and it seems I’m not the only one.

The last time I was in Chernihiv I stayed in this hotel. 💔

[NEXTA @nexta_tv]

In #Chernihiv, 53 people were killed by shelling during the last 24 hours.

One of the all-time greatest interviews.

@UN @WFP You mean 'war.' A unilateral INVASION. An impartial, unbiased person can see that. Have some moral integrity.

[Amy Butler @WayfarersBook]

I can't believe this... I love Kharkiv so much. Anyone who believes Putin's deranged rhetoric needs to see the destruction he's caused. And to the Russians who did this, иди нахуй.

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

@natachabut An Al Jazeera team was able to enter the devastated city of Kharkiv in Ukraine after Russia announced a pause in fighting to allow people to leave.

Reporter @stratfordch was shocked by what he saw ⤵️

[Darth Putin @DarthPutinKGB]

To save Ukraine, we have to destroy it.

ELT teachers of Twitter....

Our teachers who have fled Ukraine for neighbouring countries are going to need work.

They are Celta/Delta qualified Ukrainians excellent English, and a couple of expats.

If anyone knows of vacancies, could you let me know?

This just popped up on my timeline -- it's a podcast I did years ago about living in Kyiv. I moved away, then came back because I loved this city so much. I hope this inspired someone to travel there. The war has been going on for 8 days. Ukraine needs help!

Kiev, 🇺🇦: While looking for an alternative narrative about a city currently under siege, we dug into the podcast archives and found this one from The Amateur Traveler by @chris2x. Buildings can be erased but travel memories cannot. 🙏🏾🙏🏾#Travel #Peace

Chernihiv is home to some of the nicest people we ever met in Ukraine. Russia's invasion is horrific.

[Evan O’Connell @evanoconnell]

Via UNIAN — harrowing video of Chernihiv after the strikes. Not sharing the whole video, which can be found on their telegram channel and gets a lot more graphic, this is just the general destruction. https://t.co/i4QYKK2bH1

[Amy Butler @WayfarersBook]

People's homes... And so much vile propaganda has come out of Russia today.

Beloved Kharkiv. 💔 2nd biggest city in Ukraine. The last time I was there was May 2021. I ate at that cafe at the intersection twice. You can see the building where I stayed at the end of the video. And Russia with its "we don't target civilians" propaganda. 🤬🤬

[Rob Lee @RALee85]

Downtown Kharkiv. We’re getting a good indication of what the siege of Kyiv will look like. That’s probably the point.

In #StPetersburg, #Russia, the police detained a well-known survivor of the Siege of Leningrad Yelena Osipova at an anti-war #protest:

[Amy Butler @WayfarersBook]

Russian police are arresting their own children, there's clearly a teen being taken away with her mom -- what do you think they are doing to the Ukrainians??
