While Elon is posting awful memes about the Ukrainian president Zelensky out of boredom, I want to remind you that this is also the person, who, on the first day of the full-scale attack by Russia, refused the US offer to evacuate, saying 'I need ammunition, not a ride', and this alone was a huge morale boost for the Ukrainian people to defend themselves in what was anticipated to be “a three days blitz war.” While you are laughing at Elon’s meme about Zelensky without knowing the context, keep in mind that Ukraine has decimated the Russian army from the second strongest in the world to the second strongest in Ukraine.

The president of South Africa. Here I fix it.

1. It is Kyiv, not Kiev.

2. It is not a conflict, but an invasion by Russia.

3. Those were Russian missiles you had to hid in shelter from.

4. De-escalation can be achieved in one day by Russia withdrawing its troops.

5. Ceasefire and de-escalation of counteroffensive will cement abuse of Ukrainians in occupied territories and will invite more atrocities in the future. We have been there in 2014, and it didn't work, did it?

6. All countries need security guarantees, true, but also no one threatened Russia, definitely not Ukraine.

Today's Ukraine recap.

1. African leaders visit Ukraine and meet with Zelensky. Russia attacks Kyiv during the visit and they go into bomb shelter. The president of South Africa misspells Kyiv in Russian way and his spokesman claims there was no attack or sirens. 1/

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

13-year-old Dmytro from Kharkiv, 4-year-old Lisa from Vinnytsia, Serhii from Novosolone who was just 2 days old. They are among five hundred innocent children whose lives were destroyed by Russia's onslaught.

Many of them could have become famous scholars, artists, sports champions, contributing to Ukraine's history.
They fell victim to the enemy's missiles and hate, which keep ravaging and claiming lives of young Ukrainians.

It is still impossible to establish the exact number of injured children due to active hostilities and the temporary occupation of a part of the Ukrainian territory.

We must hold out and win this war! All of Ukraine, all our people, all our children must be free from the Russian terror!

There is an actual international conspiracy to kidnap children, and it is based in the Kremlin

We know how often tyrannies try to use sports for their ideological interests. It is obvious that any neutral flag of Russian athletes is stained with blood. I invite Mr. Bach to Bakhmut. So that he could see with his own eyes that neutrality does not exist.

⚡️Pope urges to spend less on Christmas, send difference to Ukrainians.

“Let’s have a more humble Christmas, with more humble gifts, and send what we save to the Ukrainian people, who need it,” he said.

These are the conditions in which children are born in Kyiv: with lots of love and sandbags in the windows to protect them from the evil from the east.

Ukrainian soldier Mykhailo Dianov is among the fortunate ones: in contrast with some of his fellow POWs, he survived russian captivity. This is how russia “adheres” to the Geneva Conventions. This is how russia continues the shameful legacy of Nazism.

The hand with the blue and yellow bracelets found in Izyum belonged to Serhii Sova, a 36 year old Warrior from Nikopol who fought in the 93rd brigade.

His wife recognized him by the tattoos on his body and the bracelets - their kids gave him to dad.

RIP, Serhii.

@elonmusk people say you come from another planet to teach people to believe in the impossible.
Our planets are next to each other, as I live where it is nearly impossible to survive.
Help us get out of Azovstal to a mediating country. If not you, then who? Give me a hint.

Waiting in line at the grocery story today in Kyiv I met Daniel — a Ukrainian soldier balancing the responsibilities of new fatherhood with defending his country.
