🇷🇺 dictator vladimir putin claimed to have taken control of Kostiantynivka,
✅19th Corps of 🇺🇦 Armed Forces has officially refuted these claims. Servicemen have released footage from various parts of the town, which clearly confirms that Kostiantynivka remains under the control
У Національному архіві Швеції зберігається документ, який варто показувати кожному, хто називає українців «молодою нацією».
Це оригінал «Pacta et Constitutiones Legum Libertatumque Exercitus Zaporoviensis» — першої української конституції, складеної гетьманом Пилипом Орликом 5 квітня 1710 року в Бендерах.
Тепер трохи математики. Конституція Орлика з'явилася за 77 років до Конституції США. За 81 рік до конституцій Польщі та Франції. Коли в Європі ще панував абсолютизм, українці вже прописували поділ влади, обмеження повноважень гетьмана, незалежний суд і права козацтва. Не як подарунок від монарха — як договір вільних людей зі своєю владою.
Це і є відповідь усім «експертам», які досі розповідають про Україну як про «young nation», що «раптово виникла у 1991 році». Ні, панове. Нація, яка 316 років тому писала одну з перших конституцій у світі, не може бути молодою.
І саме тому Москва століттями нищила нашу пам'ять — палила архіви, забороняла мову, переписувала історію. Бо імперії було життєво необхідно, щоб світ вважав нас «частиною Росії», а не дорослішою та набагато старшою за неї політичною культурою. І оригінал конституції Орлика вцілів лише тому, що зберігався у Швеції — поза досяжністю імперських рук.
Russia is already lying about Kyiv, pretending this was about “military targets.”
Hotels are burning. Apartment blocks are burning. Civilians are still trapped under the rubble.
I went on @SkyNews to say the obvious: Russia is talking absolute shit.
The russians hit my friend's business in Kyiv this morning, their team is injured.
I wish you all truly understood russians.
I wish you could feel how much we hate them, and why.
They are the worst of humanity.
Caolan is a real fucking reporter. Missiles exploding behind him, and he keeps filming, while the entire Western media hides, closes its eyes, and pretends the war in Ukraine isn’t even happening.
Fucking thank you, @CaolanReports, for doing what the world won’t.

Very emotional moment from the interview with Zelenskyy. You should watch this.
JOURNALIST: Do you miss being an actor?
ZELENSKYY:?I miss being a good father.
JOURNALIST: When your children were little, what did you tell them the most? What was the thing that you told them the most when they were small?
ZELENSKYY: I love you.
JOURNALIST: And what do you tell them now that they're older?
ZELENSKYY: Oh, I miss you.
JOURNALIST: When was the last time you cried?
ZELENSKYY: I will try to do it after our interview. No, I mean this, between us. I'm a normal man and then there are a lot of different moments, between us, almost each day, a lot of losses on the battlefield and civilians, and there are absolutely crazy attacks on our people.
And I'm just, it's… I mean, It's very difficult really, when I give orders (medals). I said about it. It's always difficult for me when I give orders (medals) to the mothers and fathers, who lost their children. In such moments, really, I often cry.
JOURNALIST: Are you a hero?
ZELENSKYY: No.
JOURNALIST: So who is your hero?
ZELENSKYY:?My hero? My children, my army, our army, and Ukrainian people. So I'm a part… I'm also a Ukrainian, so I'm a part of our nation. But now our nation, I think, that our nation is absolutely heroic.
When Notre-Dame burned in 2019, the world stopped.
Today, Russia damages Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery nearly 1,000 years old and older than Notre-Dame itself.
A thousand years of history deserves the same attention, the same sympathy, and the same protection.
Congratulations to NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik (@AstroKomrade)!
@NASA has announced him as commander of the Artemis III mission.
He has Ukrainian roots (from Dnipro) and has visited Ukraine several times.
In 2017, while aboard the ISS, he became the second person after Leonid Kadenyuk to unfold the Ukrainian flag in orbit. In 2008, he also adopted a boy from Dnipro.
Wishing him all the best on this historic mission — a truly special connection between Ukraine and the stars.

🔴 More than 50 Ukrainian children have been killed by Russia in 2026 alone.
According to the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, as of May 2026, 705 children have been killed and at least 2,527 children have been injured as a result of Russia’s full-scale aggression against Ukraine.
Wie verlogen kann man sein? RuZZland 🇷🇺 behauptet, die Ukraine 🇺🇦 würde "unschuldige Studenten" in einem College in Starobelsk angreifen. Dabei zeigen sie selbst ganz stolz, wie sie genau dieses College als Militärbasis für Drohnen-Piloten und zur Rekrutierung missbrauchen. Die Studenten werden hier als Schutzschild instrumentalisiert und Angriffe auf ukrainische Zivilinfrastruktur und Zivilisten werden mit sowas gerechtfertigt. Einfach nur abstoßend.

National Art Museum in Kyiv after the attack.
Closed for an uncertain period.
According to photos published by the Ministry of Culture, there is much more damage inside.
My heart is bleeding.
While russian politicians party in Venice, waves of missiles & drones have pounded Ukraine. People are under the rubble of an apartment building in Kyiv this morning. Important for the world to see this footage and stop inviting this terrorist state back into civilised society
