Today is Stepan Chubenko’s birthday. Native of Donbas, in 2014 he was arrested by russian occupiers for his pro-Ukraine position. Tortured for days. Executed mafia-style. Body found half a year later, with his hands bound behind his back. All his teeth were missing. He was a talented goalie, a poet and just a bright boy. Only 16 years old. His life was ahead of him. His dad was Ukrainian, his mom was russian - but the occupiers didn’t give a shit. They were burning out everything Ukrainian. As they still do. #RussianWarCrimes #StandWithUkraine

Zaporizhzhia. Russian forces struck the city with aerial bombs, destroying an ordinary residential apartment building and private homes. The oncology hospital building was damaged. Rescue teams are searching for people under the rubble. Tragically, one death has been confirmed—my condolences to the family and loved ones. There are also wounded, and everyone is receiving the necessary assistance. Each of these Russian attacks not only kills people and devastates lives but also obliterates any words about the lack of conversations with Russia or some calls to the Kremlin. They take pleasure in killing people. That’s why true protection of life means air defense for Ukraine, the capability to destroy Russian military aircraft, and permission for Ukraine to carry out long-range strikes against the occupier. I am deeply grateful to everyone in the world who helps us in these efforts.

Polish police report that a group linked to Russian intelligence sent packages containing explosives across Europe, the UK, and tested deliveries to the USA and Canada. “The main targets were civilian sites, such as warehouses and large stores, using arson as the primary method. The group distributed disguised incendiary materials in courier packages across Europe, with a timed ignition mechanism during transport,” stated the Polish prosecutor’s office. This is part of Russia's ongoing program recruiting saboteurs from European countries through social media with promises of cash or crypto currencies. The goal is to intimidate Western populations and undermine support for Ukraine.

in his evening address, President Zelenskyy said that North Korea factually joined the war against Ukraine. So this is it then. We will be at war against the entire axis of evil, while our military potential remains restricted and military assistance inadequate, as the world still fears escalation. But if this isn't escalation, what is? And what will the world do when it runs out of Ukrainians to defend it?
