when foreigners casually drop ‘bombing of kyiv’ these pics always come to mind. this is what #RussianColonialism did to chechnya and grozny when they tried to leave the empire in 2000. a war crime of horrific scale, but the rest of the world was like ‘meh’, so moscow continued
In 2022, critics weaponized the chaotic evacuation to call Ukraine racist. russia used this case, of course, for spreading disinformation about my country.
Today reality is clear: Ukraine remains a welcoming home for international students while russia is the common threat.
Twice within hours, Russia struck civilian buses in Zaporizhzhia. Three people were killed, while over 10 passengers, including children, were injured. These were ordinary people travelling through the city when Russia deliberately targeted civilian transport.
Today, Russia also launched a missile strike on Dnipro, attacked Kharkiv with guided aerial bombs, struck emergency responders in Nikopol, and hit the Sumy, Odesa, Chernihiv, and Kherson regions.
In Kharkiv, one person was killed and at least 12 were injured after Russian guided bombs hit a civilian enterprise, damaging a tram and railway tracks.
These attacks are part of Russia’s systematic campaign of terror against Ukrainian civilians. Every additional air defence system and every interceptor missile delivered to Ukraine means more lives protected. Strengthening Ukraine’s air defence is one of the fastest and most effective ways to save civilians from Russia’s terror.

His mother survived.
Two children survived.
One girl is fighting for her life.
No battlefield.
No military target.
Just a family in their home.
And for some reason there’s still a discussion if the EU should allow Russian soldiers to enter the Union. Those exact soldiers that are cutting heads of Ukrainians.
Czytam informację o śmierci 15-letniego chłopaka z Ukrainy. Dziecka....
A pod nią 117 reakcji z uśmiechem...
Nie wiem, co trzeba mieć w głowie, żeby przy śmierci dziecka klikać uśmiech. Nie wiem, ile nienawiści trzeba w sobie nosić, żeby cudza tragedia stała się powodem do satysfakcji...
To jest moralna zapaść...
I naprawdę zaczynam się zastanawiać, czy my jeszcze potrafimy być ludźmi?
“This isn’t fair, this isn’t how it’s meant to be. They were both taken at once.”
Olha dedicated her life to helping children with disabilities. She and her husband, Ukraine’s defender Vitalii, were expecting a child of their own.

Horrifying strike in Zaporizhzhia: russian drone slammed into a civilian bus stop in broad daylight.
