A day in Zaporizhzhia with the HUR. I finally met Delta, Ukraine's battle management 'big brain', access codes for which are the first things Russians want from prisoners. Film: @jleather Exclusive: Inside the Ukrainian war room turning the tide on Putin https://t.co/HRBx3Maodq

Petro's message to Ukraine's resistance fighters: “Be brave and wait. We will be back.”⁠

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

In occupied Mariupol, Ukraine’s resistance is built to survive arrests and disappearances.⁠

Speaking to The Telegraph’s Dominic Nicholls, one coordinator explains how secrecy is their greatest weapon.⁠

His message to those still living under occupation: “Be brave and wait. We will be back. Definitely.”⁠

In Petro's words: "About Mariupol - not a victim, but a warrior. About our Resistance. About the people with whom I work and fight together - the greatest honour for me. As candidly and personally as possible."

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

Inside occupied Mariupol, Ukraine’s underground resistance is fighting back in the shadows.⁠
⁠
Speaking to The Telegraph’s Defence Editor @DomNicholls, one saboteur describes a covert war driven by “fury” and survival, from car bombings targeting Russian-installed officials to poisoned vodka at military gatherings.⁠

[Jack Leather @jleather]

The best saboteurs are not necessarily those you’d expect. Key qualities needed? Creativity, power and “you have to be a believer”. The best motivation? "Fury" and a desire for revenge.

I regularly have to move a line of these bikes that have been left blocking a small but frequently used entrance to my local station.

Mothers with prams have to divert onto the road to pass them while people leaving the station often nearly fall over having not been able to see them around a corner blocked off by bushes.

While it may appear small, it shows a lack of basic civility and awareness of living in a shared city. An internal thought process of 'leaving this bike blocking the pavement might cause problems for others' shouldn't be a difficult one to have. The result is frustration amongst other residents who feel less likely to engage in a society that appears to lack such basic courtesy.

The worst offenders from my own experience are trendy twenty-somethings.

Great piece to highlight such problems.
