Kim Jong Un is President Trump’s “friend.” putin is a “good guy.”
Could the American President please ask his friends to stop killing Ukrainians - and stop sending troops and weapons to help kill us?
Kyiv.
russia just struck the Pivdennyi Bridge.
A metro train was crossing it. Dozens of civilian cars were there.
russia deliberately brings terror into the middle of a city — and the world keeps watching.
Trump again blocks previously agreed weapons transfers to Ukraine.
Ihor Romanenko, former Deputy Chief of the General Staff of Ukrainian Armed Forces, explains that following his conversation with Putin, Trump blocked transfer of 3,000 air-to-surface missiles intended for targeting Russia's ballistic missile launchers.
Kramatorsk is living through hell right now.
russians just dropped a KAB on a residential building.
russia is killing civilians, destroying homes, and tearing Ukrainian cities apart.
The world must not normalize terror on this scale.
A Russian strike against the building of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. A rescue operation is underway: crews are putting out the fire and searching for people who may have been trapped inside. All services are deployed. Today in Kyiv, a pharmaceutical company and gas stations were also attacked; in Dnipro, a business center; and in other cities and regions, civilian facilities, businesses, and communications infrastructure were targeted as well. Sadly, people have been killed… My condolences to their families and loved ones. Russia will definitely face a response to this. And every one of Ukraine’s partners must see from this terror, from these strikes, that supporting Ukraine means truly supporting people’s lives – supporting the principle that terror must never be normalized, anywhere. Russia must be held accountable for all of this and face real consequences. I thank everyone who helps Ukraine!
Russia has one enormous strategic advantage of which it is taking advantage. It can daily attack civilian targets--hospitals, universities, markets--knowing that while Ukraine can do the same, the Ukrainians are too humane to do so.
BREAKING:
Russian forces dropped a multi-ton guided bomb on a school in Sumy while children were in class.
Dead and wounded have been reported.
Video filmed by one of the students captured the moment of the blast as she ran to a shelter.
As expected, Putin has signed today a decree increasing the size of the Russian army at 2,441,630 personnel, including 1,550,500 military personnel, effectively immediately.
It replaces all previous decrees in that matter and marks the seventh iteration of Russia's mobilization efforts since start of the full scale war in February 2022.
The meat grinder needs fresh meat.
People are trying to escape a burning building in central Kyiv after a russian attack. Trying not to burn alive in the place where they came to work.
And meanwhile, people are still posting “russia is not my enemy.”
Non-stop, all over Kyiv, Russians now targeting homes, schools, shopping areas, just indiscriminate mass murder, showing the world what Russians truly are.
❗️“We are witnessing attempts to create a Fourth Reich,” - Lavrov, accusing Europe and Germany in particular of militarising and preparing for war with Russia.
Interesting.
A Goebbels-style propaganda machine. A cult of the leader. Crushing dissent and independent media. Militarisation of society and children. Calling everyone who resists you a “Nazi.” Invading neighbouring countries while claiming you are “protecting” people of your language and culture beyond your borders. Annexing territory. And selling an expansionist war to your own population as an existential struggle for the survival of the nation.
Perhaps Lavrov should stop searching for the “Fourth Reich” in Europe.
A mirror would save him the trip.

Brigadier General Andrii Biletskyi, commander of the Third Army Corps, says the phase is over. Nove, Ridkodub, and Katerynivka liberated. Karpivka and Novomykhailivka back under Ukrainian control. Another 51 square kilometers this phase. 176 square kilometers since the offensive opened in mid-September. These are Ukrainian military figures, not an independent count.
