‼️All of this is just from tonight in Kyiv, Thursday, August 20, 2026. People have already been killed and injured.

The world sees. The world knows. The world has air defense systems capable of protecting Ukrainians, but it is not giving them to Ukraine.

The world has excuses.

These books were destroyed in Kyiv today. 10 million already ruined this year across Ukraine.

Burning books has nothing to do with territory by the way.

F-16s & Mirages just sent a Message: 100% of Russian Cruise Missiles Destroyed

Overnight, Russia launched a mass attack on Ukraine with 426 aerial weapons.

The outcome?
🔥 Every Kh-101 cruise missile shot down
🔥 Every Iskander-K cruise missile shot down

Ukrainian Air Force @KpsZSU spokesman Col. Yuriy Ihnat says the job was done by ground-based air defence + the air component — and that Western-supplied F-16s and Mirages performed “brilliantly” again.

Ballistic missiles still got through in frontline regions.
Some drones reached regional centres and Kyiv.

But the bigger picture is clear: Ukraine’s air shield is learning, adapting, and hitting back harder.

🔴 Russian forces conducted a massive attack against Ukraine, with casualties reported in Zaporizhzhia, Poltava, and the Kherson region.

According to preliminary estimates, about 30 missiles and 250-300 drones were deployed.

W/ an FPV drone, russians targeted a train Slatyne-Kharkiv, killing a 61yo passenger and injuring train driver and his assistant. Another FPV-drone bombed a public bus in Sumy region, wounding a driver.

The scale of russian human safaris is growing by the day. Don't look away.

Russian strike on a residential building in Dnipro.

Pure terrorism.

Three people are injured.

Hundreds of Russian drones are attacking Ukraine right now.

[Illia Ponomarenko 🇺🇦 @IAPonomarenko]

Good take by @portnikov:

"I have no doubts that in real negotiations, a criminal attack on civilians would be grounds to refuse to continue them and to pursue other diplomatic demarches.

But the problem is that what we are witnessing today is not real negotiations. It is an attempt by Ukraine and its European allies to prevent the Trump administration from accusing Kyiv of being unwilling to achieve peace, walking away from the process, and even cutting off assistance to Ukraine.

So in reality, we are negotiating with the Americans. The Russians are there as mere furniture, and they have the same task we do: to convince Trump of their “peace-loving” intentions simply by being present.

And the fact that Washington prefers not to notice Russia’s attacks on Ukraine during these talks is something the American participants will have to answer for.

And finally: will there ever be real negotiations with Russia?

The objective prerequisites for that are practically absent in the coming years, even if the enemy’s economic and military potential is significantly reduced.

More likely, we will be dealing with a gradual fading of the war, and our main efforts should be focused on actions aimed at exhausting Russia’s resources.

Participation in an imitation negotiating process in order to prevent the United States from abandoning pressure on Moscow is an essential part of those efforts."

TENDER PLEASE DO MAKE REASONABLE UKRAINIAN BALLISTIC MISSILES HAPPEN. 1000 x THANK YOU

Питання в тому, скільки часу піде на те, ��об +- довести цей проєкт до рівня «стріляє - кудись поряд влучає». Бо якщо це ~рік+ — то, для РФ, може бути сумнівна затія, вони можуть концентруватися на більш перспективних напрямках.

Але якщо це може бути доволі швидко і в декілька тисяч ракет — нам буде боляче:(

[Maksym Borodin @adnashmyash]

Just yesterday, Witkoff and Kushner had another empty-handed meeting with Russian dictator Putin. And now we have a massive Russian attack on all of Ukraine.

Hey, @LindseyGrahamSC , where are your promised "tough sanctions" on Russia?

[Wild Hornets @wilendhornets]

Shahed-107 shot down by interceptor STING 🔥

In just 6 hours, fighters of the Sky Wars unit of the 47th Mechanized Brigade “Magura” destroyed 22 enemy targets, including this rare UAV.

It is more compact, cheaper, and designed specifically to bypass Ukrainian air defense. It was first deployed against Ukraine in 2025.

The situation in Ukraine’s energy system🥶

Words cannot describe the incredible effort Ukrainian energy workers put in every day. It’s terrifying.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

Kharkiv after tonight's russian attack.

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

For the first time in a long while, Russians attacked Kyiv with Kh-22 missiles.

These missiles are designed to strike aircraft carriers and carry a warhead weighing about 950 kg. Such targets can only be intercepted by Patriot systems, said Yurii Ihnat, Head of Communications at the Ukrainian Air Force Command.

[Iryna Voichuk @IrynaVoichuk]

The number of people injured in russia’s nighttime attack on Kharkiv has risen to 31, including two children.

[Natalka @NatalkaKyiv]

This is what’s happening in Ukraine to countless elderly and sick people because the world is letting Russia do this to Ukrainians.

A post from Kyiv 🔽

Air raid sirens, ballistic missiles, Shaheds.

My grandfather, 88, can’t go to the shelter. We can’t turn on his oxygen machine because there’s no power…

All that’s left is to pray. I tell him: “Hold on, it’s not time to give up. You’re strong.”

And we thought Russia was negotiating about peace in Abu Dhabi.

[UAVoyager🇺🇦 @CrimeanVoyager]

Kyiv. russia is openly bombing residential buildings in the middle of Europe.

Why?

Because it can. Because the world lets it.

This isn’t “complex geopolitics.” This is terrorism — tolerated, enabled, and ignored.

Massive Russian drone and missile attack on Kyiv as Russia targets the Ukrainian capital's remaining power grid

Hundreds of thousands are freezing and in the dark after last attacks as Russia attempts to weaponize the -15 frosts

[Anton Gerashchenko @Gerashchenko_en]

Massive Russian attack on Kharkiv tonight - about 25 explosions over two hours shook the city.

A hospital, a maternity home and a dorm for refugees damaged by the attack.

At least 11 people injured.

Russian attacks on civilians are relentless.
