Fellow Hongkongers, have you bought your copy yet?

I truly hope that I can have a fraction of the bravery of the 13 Ukrainian soldiers who told a Russian warship to "go fuck itself" even though they knew what would happen next.

May their memory be for a blessing.

[Ilya Lozovsky @ichbinilya]

Reports that a Ukrainian kindergarten, used as a shelter, was hit. I will not share the images as they’re too graphic. Absent an extremely compelling explanation - hard to imagine what it could be - this is a war crime.

Putin now pledging “denazification” of Ukraine, whose President Zelenskyy is Jewish.

[Gabrielius Landsbergis🇱🇹 @GLandsbergis]

We in Lithuania know it very well that Ukraine is fighting not just for Ukraine, but for us in the region, Europe and everyone in the democratic world. It is our obligation not just to punish Russia for its actions but to help Ukraine with all and every means available. Now.

[Joey Siu ���嵐 @_joeysiu]

Governments should have implemented sanctions much earlier and should have took every action possible to prevent this.

Countries need to make up for the mistake NOW.

🚨🚨The Times reporting today that the Home Office are considering extending the Hong Kong visa scheme to young people.

It's not clear yet what pathway will be on offer, but thank you @pritipatel for considering doing the right thing for Hong Kongers.

Staying silent only increases the appetite of authoritarian governments.

So true of #CCP and their ludicrous henchmen; of Kim Jong-Un's regime in #NorthKorea; and so true of the ludicrous #MinAungHlaing in #Myanmar/#Burma

Today we confirmed that the Chinese government took my Australian Uyghur friend’s Mum to a re-education camp after Chinese hackers breached my emails and saw him speaking to me. It is impossible to describe how shattered I am, I barely feel alive right now

[Benedict Rogers 羅傑斯 @benedictrogers]

Unbelievably heartbreaking

The despair and desperation caused by the Chinese Communist Party regime in #HongKong is clear, palpable and devastatingly tragic

1. Most of you may not understand how dreadful the closure of Apple Daily means to Hong Kong. Not only to its journalistic landscape, but also to the people and the city itself. This is their last day. They are going to print 1 million copies tomorrow to commerate the fight.

[Jack Hazlewood @JackHHazlewood]

Can confirm reports from @StandNewsHK & others that tomorrow (Thursday) will see the last ever print edition of @AppleDaily_HK. Print run of 1 million.
