Russia is attacking Ukrainian cities with one goal - terror.

Russia is stalling for time.

Russia wants to prolong the war.

The U.S. Congress is going on recess until September 2.
The European Parliament will reconvene on September 8.

During all this time, Russia will continue its terrorism and killings.

📹: Kharkiv

What’s wrong with this world?

Kharkiv. Several air-dropped bombs. On a residential neighborhood. In broad daylight.

If it were New York or Paris — the world would burn with outrage.

But since it’s just Ukraine?
Silence.

F*ck everyone who stays silent and pretends not to see.

[UAVoyager🇺🇦 @CrimeanVoyager]

Watch closely. Don’t look away.

We scream into the void.
And the world pretends nothing’s happening.

Odesa. The building hit last night is on the verge of collapse.

[Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦 @jurgen_nauditt]

The question that will be asked in the history books of the future is: why did Europe just stand by and watch?

russia attacked Ukraine overnight with missiles and drones – destruction and fires were reported in several regions.

Odesa – The famous Privoz market was partially destroyed, and a residential building was damaged. Primorsky Boulevard was damaged. Three people were injured.

Cherkasy and the surrounding area – six injured.

Zaporizhia – Residential buildings were damaged, and one of the attacks hit an educational institution. Preliminary figures: no injuries.

[Zarina Zabrisky 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @ZarinaZabrisky]

There are no words to describe the feeling: I walked there holding my mom’s hand, loving the smells and sounds and tastes of Odesa… they burn and kill people, beauty, memories, hearts, souls…

While the world is on vacation.

@CarloMasala1 Die Nonchallence, mit der der Ukraine umfassende Korruption vorgeworfen wird, geht zu weit.
Wie man sieht, ist sie auf gleicher Höhe wie z.B. Brasilien oder Marokko. Trotzdem käme niemand auf die Idee, diesen Ländern ständig Korruption vorzuwerfen.
Btw. Russland ist da rechts.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

I gathered all heads of Ukraine’s law enforcement and anti-corruption agencies, along with the Prosecutor General. It was a much-needed meeting — a frank and constructive conversation that truly helps. We all share a common enemy: the Russian occupiers. And defending the Ukrainian state requires a strong enough law enforcement and anti-corruption system — one that ensures a real sense of justice.

Criminal proceedings must not drag on for years without lawful verdicts. And those who work against Ukraine must not feel comfortable or immune to the inevitability of punishment.

I am grateful to all participants of today’s meeting: the Security Service of Ukraine, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office, the National Agency on Corruption Prevention, the State Bureau of Investigation, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the Prosecutor General. Thank you for your willingness to work as a team — as Team Ukraine — and in the interests of Ukraine. We agreed that everyone would work solely in a constructive manner.

We all hear what society is saying. We see what people expect from state institutions — ensured justice and the effective functioning of each institution. We discussed the necessary administrative and legislative decisions that would strengthen the work of each institution, resolve existing contradictions, and eliminate threats. Everyone will work together. At the political level, we will provide support.

We agreed that next week, there will be an in-depth working meeting on the joint action plan. And in two weeks, a joint plan must be ready — outlining the steps that are needed and will be implemented to strengthen Ukraine, resolve existing issues, deliver greater justice, and truly protect the interests of Ukrainian society.

What happened in Ukraine today is an internal matter. And if you don’t understand Ukrainian politics, maybe just don’t comment. Don’t project your country’s politics onto Ukraine. The context is different.

Russians murdered a 10 year old boy this morning while Europeans were crying over their local cafe being temporarily out of organic almond milk, instead having to suffer through the hardship of cappuccino infused with a cheap oatmilk variety.

⚡️ US urges Europe to join potential secondary tariffs on Russian oil.

"I urge our European allies, who have talked a big game, to follow us if we implement these secondary tariffs," U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said.

Terror continues: Russia struck a residential building in Kramatorsk with a glide bomb, killing a 10-year-old boy. At least five others were injured.

[Денис Казанський @den_kazansky]

Russians attacked a residential building in Kramatorsk (Donetsk region) and killed a 10-year-old child

In Russia, this is called "defending Donbass from fascism."

[Jürgen Nauditt 🇩🇪🇺🇦 @jurgen_nauditt]

Odesa and Sumy were attacked by russians overnight.
Houses and shopping centers were destroyed. Unfortunately, there are also injured people.

[Bundeskanzler Friedrich Merz @bundeskanzler]

Norwegen ist unser wichtigster Energielieferant. Wir sind Norwegens Handelspartner Nummer Eins. Heute haben Premier @jonasgahrstore und ich eine vertiefte Zusammenarbeit für Sicherheit vereinbart.

Lieber Jonas, wir sind enge Freunde und strategische Partner. Das ist ein Gewinn.

[Nico Lange @nicolange_]

450 Drohnen, Marschflugkörper, ballistische Raketen und aeroballistische Raketen ließ Putin letzte Nacht auf die Ukraine abfeuern. Menschen übernachten in U-Bahn-Stationen, Wohnhäuser brennen in Kyjiw. Wir Europäer können das nicht einfach geschehen lassen.

[Radosław Sikorski 🇵🇱🇪🇺 @sikorskiradek]

Putin still mocks @POTUS peace efforts.

[TT @TTomenendal]

Schau hin, Europa!
450 Millionen sehen weg – und lassen 40 Millionen Menschen einfach fallen.
Unsere Großeltern haben uns beigebracht, füreinander einzustehen.
Und heute? Heute schweigen wir. Heute ducken wir uns weg.
Das ist nicht das Europa, das sie uns hinterlassen wollten!

[Jay in Kyiv @JayinKyiv]

Trump's "50 days" is now taken by Putin as Carte Blanche for mass murder in Ukraine's cities.

Missiles, drones, all poured onto the civilian population.

Trump's fear of Putin will cost so many loved ones, homes..

Kyiv, this morning.

[UAVoyager🇺🇦 @CrimeanVoyager]

Another (not) good morning in Ukraine.

That destroyed Kyiv apartment could’ve been mine. My family.

But who gives a damn?

The world scrolls Epstein files and sips cocktails, while russian terror wipes out cities and families.

Shame on everyone who chose silence and inaction.
