Sterlitamak, Bashkiria. The Solnechny shopping centre is on fire.
Three dead. Seventeen evacuated, including a child.
Smoke over the building.

Samara. The Kuibyshev oil refinery hit today.
A dark cloud on the horizon behind the apartment blocks.
Another refinery. Another city.

@vonderleyen@eucopresident@AlboMP You say Europe and Australia see the world the same way. Over-regulated, high taxes, and a digital cage. That is the shared vision.
Moscow region. Two huge columns of black smoke rising next to the highway.
The fuel is burning. Winter is close.
That is the view from the road.

Moscow. Air-defence tracers cut across the sky while a fire burns between the buildings.
The drones still get through.
That is the picture over the capital.

Germany. NATO cargo planes coming in low over the highway.
Two of them in one shot.
They are moving hardware, not statements.

Ukrainian soldiers moving through smoke with explosions a few metres ahead.
Blue armband. They keep walking.
That is the exhaustion on camera.

Moscow. A residential high-rise on fire after the weekend drone strikes.
Several floors burning on voting day.
Not a refinery. An apartment block.
#Moscow#Ukraine#Russia
The trench. Russian and Ukrainian soldiers fighting at arm’s length.
A rifle in the mud, gear scattered on the slope.
This is the range now.

Shchyolkovo, Moscow region. The waste sorting plant is on fire.
Flames running the length of the building.
The capital’s outskirts again.
#Shchyolkovo#Moscow#Russia
Zaporizhzhia. A Russian strike hits academic building No. 3 of the national university — a 1902 former girls’ gymnasium in the city centre.
It survived two world wars. Tonight it is on fire.

New York. Guterres gives his final UNGA speech and asks the world to choose hope over despair.
The wars are still running. The institution is unchanged.
That is the farewell.

St. Petersburg, station 486. A Yabloko observer is detained without explanation, brought back, then attacked by a commission staffer.
Scratches, documents taken, phone smashed.
That is how they handle observers.

Krasnodar, station 2059. After midnight two commission members open the sealed packets and swap the ballots. Police standing right there.
Cameras on. 23:06.
That is the count.

Novosibirsk, station 2013. Men in uniform outside the polling station in a student dorm, handing out summonses and pushing army contracts.
Voters say they almost had to run out.
First you vote. Then they take you.
#Novosibirsk#Elections#Russia
Yerevan. Several hundred queued at “Noon Against Putin,” including Russian activists who already faced arrest at home.
They bought the water themselves and handed it out in line.
That is the vote they have left.
