At a Lviv school, a classmate danced a waltz at the prom (a Ukrainian tradition) with a disabled classmate who cannot move.

Sweden will transfer the first 16 Gripen fighter jets to Ukraine.

Thank you, Sweden! 🇸🇪🇺🇦

These are JAS 39 Gripen C/D multirole fighters - aircraft Ukraine had previously described as among the most sought-after for strengthening its combat aviation.

Ukraine and Sweden also signed a declaration on deepening defense cooperation.

5 confirmed hits in under two weeks:

May 7 — “Karakurt”
May 15 — “Buyan” + minesweeper
May 17 — “Svetlyak”

Ukrainian drones are scaling fast.
Summer will be hot for the occupiers.

❗️First Ukrainian guided aerial bomb is ready for combat use - Defense Minister Fedorov.

Its development took 17 months. This bomb has been created for the realities of modern warfare. It's not a copy of Soviet or Western developments, but a unique product by Ukrainian engineers.

Ukraine is creating our own high-tech weapons, @FedorovMykhailo noted.

Guote from a citizen of Ukraine about President Zelensky:

"What Zelensky is doing now at the international level, no president of Ukraine could have even dreamed of, it is simply an epochal figure, I am proud of our leader, he literally saved Ukraine in 2012, when he collected aid from all over the world, and continues to do so every day, respect!"

🇺🇦❤️

If you told me four years ago that I’d be watching videos of a shotgun-mounted Ukrainian drone mercilessly shooting down a swarm of russian drones, I would have laughed. Yet, here we are.

Ukraine's new sleeper trains 😍

For just $22 you can cover over 1000km in comfort, arriving in just 14 hours, but you won't want to leave!

You meet amazing new friends, play chess, eat yummy food and because it's a sleeper train you wake up and the journey is already over!

🇺🇦🥰🇺🇸Think about it. The U.S. ambassador to Ukraine resigned and openly accused Trump of forming an alliance with Putin.
Respect to Bridget Brink. A brave and honest woman.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It was great talking to Stephen and the inspiring young people we’ve worked with at the @ObamaFoundation on the @ColbertLateShow.

When the Obama Presidential Center opens this June 19, my hope is that this will be a place where people can come together to meet, learn, and work with each other to create change in their communities. Learn more at https://t.co/ahkDMKalIn.

On May 6, Ukraine marks Infantry Day, honoring those holding the front lines through years of full-scale war.

Enduring extreme conditions and long separations from loved ones, they continue fighting to reclaim every meter of Ukrainian land.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Former US Secretary of State Antony Blinken:

For every dollar that we [the US] put into Ukraine, Europeans and others put in a dollar and a half. So the notion that they were free-riding on Ukraine is simply not true.

And much of the money that we spent on Ukraine was actually spent here in the United States to either buy weapons systems for them or to replenish the systems that we gave them.

Deliveries of food to Ukrainian positions is now routinely carried out by drones.

Those who package these deliveries try to include some treats together with the food.

Only one chance in this lifetime…

Like watching sunset at the beach from the most foreign seat in the cosmos, I couldn’t resist a cell phone video of Earthset. You can hear the shutter on the Nikon as @Astro_Christina is hammering away on 3-shot brackets and capturing those exceptional Earthset photos through the 400mm lens. @AstroVicGlover was in window 3 watching with @Astro_Jeremy next to him.

I could barely see the Moon through the docking hatch window but the iPhone was the perfect size to catch the view…this is uncropped, uncut with 8x zoom which is quite comparable to the view of the human eye. Enjoy.

I am in Barcelona today to help unite progressive parties from around the world in a defense of democracy and a war against corruption. A first of its kind event. Necessary to beat back the forces of fascism.

Artemis II: Closing in on the MoonThe astronauts of Artemis II are now truly venturing into deep space — and the Moon is getting closer every hour.They have already traveled more than 200,000 miles (about 320,000 km) from Earth. With every passing moment, our home planet grows smaller in their windows, while the Moon looms larger ahead. Soon, the Moon’s gravitational pull — its “sphere of influence” — will begin to dominate, gently tugging the spacecraft into its embrace.Right now, the crew is fully immersed in the demanding routines of deep-space flight: Running critical checks on the life support systems that keep them alive
Testing communications with Earth across vast distances
Practicing manual flight maneuvers
And carefully preparing for the dramatic lunar flyby that lies just ahead

This is the moment Artemis II transitions from leaving Earth behind to preparing for humanity’s return to the Moon — not just orbiting it, but getting ready to push the boundaries of exploration once again.The journey is entering its most exciting phase.
