Kyiv is going to have food, electricity, water, and heating shortages. Maybe it is time to stop being concerned and instead increase weapon production and expand the capabilities required to destroy Putin's terrorist regime.

Kramatorsk 💔

A Russian bomb killed 30 people and injured 20 more today, striking two public buses and people nearby.

As the evacuation continued, Russian drones hunted the police officers helping evacuate the wounded.

No words for this horror.

There are russian airplanes over Kramatorsk right now dropping 40 glide bombs every day. Today they killed 33 innocent people. These are huge weapons never designed for civilian areas. Ukraine needs air defense to shoot down those planes & save thousands of innocent lives.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

This is a nightmare! People got torn apart right there. There was no chance.

​Russia struck a passenger bus in Kramatorsk, killing 30 people. 30‼️

President Zelenskyy’s comment on US Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s remarks that the war in Ukraine is at a "strategic stalemate" and that there are now "no prospects for a negotiated settlement":

"You cannot negotiate future economic projects with Russians on the one hand and, on the other, claim that we are in some kind of diplomatic stalemate. We are not in a diplomatic stalemate.

Shut down Russia’s entire economy. Shut Russia's mouth. Stop feeding them through your sales. Impose sanctions on their weapons.

Open Starlink for Ukraine. You opened it when responding to Iran, after all. Everything worked there. Israel completely controlled the skies over Iran. So when you need it to work, it works.

It costs them nothing to help Ukraine. And I said quite frankly: help us protect our skies and gain dominance there.

Then Putin will sit down at the negotiating table. Why? Because he will lose everything. In two or three months, he will lose everything.

And instead, we are waiting for the Chinese to develop an equivalent and hand it over to Russians.

This is not a stalemate - this is called a lack of will."

Fucking piece of shit

Trump: "Today is Vladimir Putin's birthday. I'm sure you're going to celebrate it. Are you going to celebrate his birthday? I have a call set up."

What the hell is wrong with you?! Celebrate? You sure? The birthday of a butcher responsible for murdering 25 people in Ukraine today? Who struck an apartment building at 6 in the morning, wiping out entire families, including 5 small kids ON HIS BIRTHDAY!?

​You're sure you want to celebrate such a person instead of maybe mourning his victims? And they laughed in response. They fucking laughed! What the fuck is wrong with these people???

[Jay in Kyiv @JayinKyiv]

Now backed by the White House, the bodies of more kids pulled from their homes this morning all over Ukraine, while Putin celebrates his birthday with a huge round of mass murder.

Trump will surely put a call in to congratulate his friend.

Respond, goddammit!

You have the ideal chance to strike back without putting your own skin in the game by arming Ukraine. But no, you’re all "concerned." I’m sure Putin gives a royal fuck about your "concerns."

[Andrew Perpetua @AndrewPerpetua]

I feel like a crazy person when I see people say that EU is trying to de-escalate with Russia.

Putin is ramping up his provocations to get a response. He keeps going up up up.

EU is saying we will not respond to provocations until they cross a certain line. But what line? What response does that line call for?

You aren't communicating where the line is, or how close Putin is to the line, or what the response will be.

The further you move the line, the more extreme the response has to be. Is the line killing civilians? If so, how many? 5? 10? 1000? Without a clear threshold, deterrance fails. Instead, you merely make the ultimate response more extreme.

The response for killing 2 people is going to be a lot less than for killing 20,000. Where is the line?

This is not de-escalation. It is escalation. You are ramping up the response curve. Instead of having small responses to small events and medium responses to medium events, you're setting up a situation where you have no response until something huge happens and then you have a single enormous response.

This isn't how you avoid war, this is how you make war inevitable. You are banking on Putin himself deciding not to cross the line you aren't communicating to him, knowing full well it is in his nature to push until he hits resistance. Strategic ambiguity only works if the adversary believes crossing an unknown line carries immediate peril. But here, ambiguity is being used to cover for inaction, which Putin instinctively feels compelled to probe.

Guys, remember when we raised $150,000 together in 2025 for an AI-powered turret to help protect Ukrainian skies?

Well, we just got a pretty incredible update. We now have confirmation that one of the Sky Sentinel turrets funded through our fundraiser is currently deployed in Kyiv, helping protect the city.

How cool is that? Seriously, this is what your support made possible. You helped put an actual piece of air defense on the ground in Ukraine, and now it’s protecting people every day.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

Ukraine is expecting another large-scale Russian attack tonight. Their planes are reported to be in the air already and on their way to bomb Ukraine.

​We are going to spend another night hoping that Russian missiles don't strike our home. It's a deadly lottery, and someone always loses.

​Keep us in your thoughts.

😄 Prague has found the perfect use for Putin — printing his face on dog-poop bags

The idea came from Czech designer and humorist Tomáš Břímek. Part of the proceeds from the bags goes to support Ukraine through the Dárek pro Putina initiative — “A Gift for Putin.”

Keeping the city clean — and the karma clean too.

🚨 South Korea has shipped 176,000 tons of fuel to Russia, mostly diesel, using sanctioned Russian shadow fleet tankers in July and August 2026.
This is why the South Korean government created a fake scandal attacking Zelensky over North Korean POWs.
