"And glory, mountains blue, to you,
In ageless ice encased!
And glory, freedom’s knights, to you,
Whom God will not forsake.
Keep fighting — you are sure to win!
God helps you in your fight!
For fame and freedom march with you,
And right is on your side!"
🇺🇦Taras Shevchenko, 1845
Russia has spent $1 billion in the last few days attacking Kyiv. Not building roads, hospitals or fixing the failing economy - on murdering civilians. This is the priority of a nation totally obsessed with terrorism and nothing else.
"It was a difficult decision to share this photo. A Russian missile wiped out an entire family.
Will this image stop the war? Most likely not. But I believe the world needs to see the truth.
I hope those who are pained by this photo can forgive me.
Kyiv, July 6, 2026." - photographer Efrem Lukatsky
💔 Kyiv. Heartbreaking.
A person escaped the burning building but never made it to safety.
This is what russia does. This is the reality Ukrainians endure while the world watches.
With spiraling situation in Russia, Putin has only one means by which he'll deflect growing public anger - the mass murder of civilians in Ukraine.
Another massive Russian missile attack on the civilian population of Kyiv the past few hours.
Many dead.
@Bartaway That could be just down to the proximity of air defence launchers to your place. The previous time, interceptor launches sounded like Cape Canaveral opened a franchise spot down the block. Tonight — no so much.
At least 3 people were reported killed in a Russian attack on Kyiv tonight‼️ First responders are working to save people from blocked apartments and the rubble.
Unfortunately, the number is likely to rise.
A 5-year-old girl was killed and 7 other children were injured in a Russian strike on Sumy.
The girl's 34-year-old mother was also killed in the attack, while her older daughter has been hospitalized with moderate injuries. A 61-year-old man also lost his life.
Doctors are currently fighting to save the lives of several critically injured victims.
Russia keeps murdering Ukrainians daily. Murdering children!
🚨 BREAKING: Russian aerial bomb strike kills three in Ukraine’s Sumy.
At least three people were killed and several others, including a 13-year-old child in critical condition, were injured when Russian forces struck a central street in the city of Sumy with aerial bombs today.
An 11-year-old child and a 76-year-old adult were killed in a russian attack on Zaporizhzhia.
russian terror is indiscriminate — they have an urge to murder everyone.
We urge you to help protect the innocent:

🚨 BREAKING: Russian strike destroys Red Cross warehouse in Kyiv.
The attack incinerated 320,000 units of critical aid and medical equipment valued at around $2 million during a massive aerial assault on the capital, dealing a severe blow to the humanitarian infrastructure essential for emergency response.
The UN has confirmed 129 executions of Ukrainian prisoners of war by russians since 2022.
From November 2025 to January 2026 alone, 37 executions were documented across 18 separate incidents.
These numbers are only the tip of the iceberg.
Russia launched a missile strike on Dnipro, targeting infrastructure. Rescue operations are still underway at the site. All emergency services are involved, helping people with everything they need. Tragically, five people have been confirmed killed as of now. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Twenty-nine people were wounded in the attack.
Russia also struck Zaporizhzhia today, targeting an ordinary passenger minibus. Three lives have been lost in this drone attack. My condolences. Six others were wounded, including a child. In Nikopol, the Russians carried out a double-tap strike on first responders and a fire engine. They also attacked energy infrastructure in the Sumy, Odesa, and Chernihiv regions, and launched strikes on Kherson and the Kharkiv region.
It is very important to counter this Russian terror. People need greater protection from such horrific attacks. Above all, we need anti-ballistic capabilities. It is essential that Europe is as active as possible in developing its own anti-ballistic defense – its own systems and missiles. The sooner we have more of these capabilities, the more lives we will be able to save.
