I would like to present you with an important development of our work. A month ago, in the kangoroo court that sentenced him to 9 more years prison time, Alexey @navalny announced that the Anti-Corruption Foundation will expand its work to the international level.

“He told me to give him [oral sex]. The whole time he held the gun near my temple or put it into my face. Twice he shot at the ceiling and said it was to give me more ‘motivation’,” a female victim, raped by a Russian soldier, told @HRW.
7 years ago today I got a call from my boyfriend at the time, saying my dad had fallen whilst doing house maintenance and hurt his head. I had no idea how bad the situation, so decided to drive from uni back home to make sure things were ok, expecting to be there for 2-3 days.
You rarely hear from mothers of Russian soldiers. This lady came up to us at an anti-war protest in Moscow, desperate for the safety of her 22 yr old son. She told us there were only 10 men left in his regiment. If there are voices Putin fears, it’s these
Ukraine gained a complete victory in its case against Russia at the International Court of Justice. The ICJ ordered to immediately stop the invasion. The order is binding under international law. Russia must comply immediately. Ignoring the order will isolate Russia even further
She was so, grateful and genuinely thankful. Her hubby works 2 jobs to pay the mortgage and bills but even that doesn't cover things for them. This morning wifey is meeting this woman in Whangarei and taking her to Pack & Save. Our shout
People are really hurting. Help if you can
A smear campaign launched by Russia against Marianna, a pregnant woman from Mariupol's bombed hospital, is terrible. Not only Russian officials harass her, users from Russia write atrocious things on her Instagram page. These people are completely deprived of humanity
I would like you to meet Polina Kovaleva. Polina is a 26-year-old glamorous Russian girl from London🇬🇧. She lives in a huge apartment in Kensington and loves to party, her instagram feed looks like a non-stop holiday. That’s not unheard of, but there is one small detail…(THREAD)
In Antalya, Foreign Ministers of #Ukraine and Russia had talks. Amazing. Lavrov said literally this: “We do not plan to attack other countries. We did not attack Ukraine either.” As if we all are blind
Today the man who answered the phone asked for my name. I said my name was David. He said to me the reports from the Ukraine and now from the bombing of the hospital in Mariupol are fake news😡😱
Remember the recently detained Yelena Osipova, who survived the siege of Leningrad? She's back in action, protesting publicly in St Petersburg
"🇷🇺 soldier, drop your weapon - and you'll be a real hero!"
Banners are painted by herself.
Don't know about you, but we love her! 💙💛
Watching this video of saluting youths in a shopping mall in Kazan wearing the Z Russian army logo side and then looking at the photographs coming out of Mariupol and it’s hard not to feel sick.
This #Russia-dropped bomb would flatten a building — and yet these #Ukraine EODs defuse it with 2 hands and a bottle of water, while shells audibly land nearby.
Mind boggling bravery.
Zelensky to Putin: "Good Lord, what do you want? Leave our land. If you don't want to leave now, sit down with me at the negotiating table. But not from 30 meters away, like with Macron and Scholz. Sit down with me and talk. What are you afraid of? We're no threat to anyone."
