[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Every Russian defense facility that serves the war against Ukraine is a just target for our long-range sanctions.

Last night, FP-5 Flamingo missiles successfully struck the Titan-Barrikady facility in Volgograd. It is a major industrial complex where the enemy produces artillery systems and specialized military equipment, including components for missile launch systems used in attacks against our people. Confirmed strikes were followed by a fire on the plant's premises. I thank the warriors of our Defense Forces for their precision.

The reach of Ukraine's long-range sanctions continues to expand. And it is precisely our pressure, day after day, that lays the groundwork for a dignified peace in the end. I am grateful to every Ukrainian engineer and warrior who is making our long-range capabilities possible. Glory to Ukraine!

Are workers subject to algorithmic management devices facing a justice gap? My latest paper explores how trade unions can fill this gap through litigation, and why it's strategically attractive. #algorithmicmanagement #collectiveredress #legalmobilization
