Ceasefire? What ceasefire? Killer Russian drones are raining down across Ukraine.

Hace menos de un mes publicamos este reportaje. Israel ya tiene su nueva guerra. Hoy han asesinado a 5 sirios en Daraa en el primer enfrentamiento de lo que será un largo conflicto. Es una regla matemática de la historia. Ocupación = Resistencia. https://t.co/Zue8BM1m1U

For @Le_Figaro, I spoke with Nate, JD Vance’s First Cousin and a Volunteer Fighter in Ukraine. With the stunning photos of @lores_albert who met him in the first place (without knowing it!) in 2022.

La portada de hoy, que recoge el reportaje que hicimos en Banias. Un viaje que me hizo viajar al pasado, cuando veía estas mismas masacres, pero cometidas a manos del régimen de Bashar. Muy triste.

Esta gran foto de @lores_albert resume el horror al que ha regresado #Siria tras la euforia que provocó el final de la brutal dictadura de Bashar al Asad. Hoy, un amplio reportaje sobre lo que vimos en Banias. Me habría gustado no tener que escribirlo. https://t.co/ItiYA28RTB

Here's the United States director of national intelligence on national TV pushing proven falsehoods and talking points that could have come straight from the Kremlin. I'll address them here:

-Elections were not "canceled," they are postponed under martial law, as set out in Ukraine's constitution. Ukrainians do want elections, but only once a peace can be guaranteed with security assurances that will deter Russia from attacking again. Why are such security guarantees necessary? Because there are millions of Ukrainians living under Russian occupation, millions more who've been displaced, a million or so military – and all these people would need to be granted the chance to freely vote, which cannot happen under the Russian gun. Moreover, Ukrainians overwhelmingly support Zelensky and none of them are questioning his legitimacy. There are two countries who are questioning his legitimacy: Russia and the US.

-Ukraine's political opposition is not silent; they criticize Zelensky even in wartime. There is still a healthy political discourse and competition in the country.

-Churches are not being shutdown as she mentions; the Moscow-run arm of the Orthodox church which has a proven track record of operating as branch of the FSB has been barred from practicing.

-"Total government control of the media"? Hardly. Independent news outlets are plentiful in Ukraine, and they report critically on the president and the military; many focus on exposing corruption.

-Gabbard also asks what Ukrainians are fighting for and whether they actually value freedom. Ukrainians are engaged in an existential fight. They are fighting and dying for freedom and independence – and they have done so since Russia first invaded in 2014. Ukrainians also led two revolutions – the Orange and Euromaidan/Revolution of Dignity – over corruption, state violence, political repression. The latter saw more than 100 pro-democracy protesters killed on Kyiv's main square, aptly named Independence Square. If there is anyone right now in the world who understands what freedom means and what it costs, its the Ukrainians.

[Financial Times @FT]

A Financial Times investigative documentary has found evidence that Russian executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war are not isolated incidents but are likely to be part of a broader pattern that points to a systematic policy.

Warning: this film contains distressing images

“Intellectuals in America a century ago imagined and admired a Soviet Union that never existed—a country of equality, of development, of arts and freedom,” says @k_sonin . “Now the American right wing once again imagines a Russia that doesn’t exist in the real world, a place that is conservative, upholds family values and liberties.”

Desmontando las falsedades 'rusas' de Trump: ni Zelenski es impopular, ni es un dictador, ni empezó la guerra contra Rusia. La mayor parte de sus aseveraciones se basan en mentiras calcadas de la propaganda rusa. https://t.co/JnS4tIcuya
