[Steve Capus @SteveCapus]

I’m spending this week once again in Ukraine, a place I strongly support and will always hold close to my heart. 🇺🇦

People here are strong, determined, filled with national & personal pride—while enduring a bitterly cold winter.

Here’s some of what I’ve seen this week: 🧵1/7

[Steve Capus @SteveCapus]

Forever proud to have been Executive Producer of “CBS Evening News with @ScottPelley.” I learned something new every day - from this respected, principled journalist & writer who simultaneously earned all of J’s top honors for his exemplary @60Minutes work

[Czech Embassy in Washington @CZinWashington]

After 4 remarkable years in DC, we bid farewell to our Deputy Head of Mission, Jan Havránek 🇨🇿🇺🇸

Friends and partners gathered for an evening of memories and gratitude to celebrate years of transatlantic cooperation and friendship—complete with a live performance from Jan’s upcoming EP, "Between Worlds." 🎶

Thank you, Jan, for your dedication to strengthening Czech-American ties.
Wishing you and your family all the best on your next adventure!

[Oslo Freedom Forum (OFF) @OsloFF]

Georgia’s first female president refused to stay silent as democracy came under attack.

At the Oslo Freedom Forum, Salome Zourabichvili reflects on a country pulled between freedom and authoritarianism, where citizens, journalists, and activists continue risking everything to defend their future.

Her story is not just one of political struggle, but of a national fight to keep Georgia free.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Our long-range sanctions carried out by the warriors of the Security Service of Ukraine, the Unmanned Systems Forces, the Special Operations Forces, the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine, and the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine have yielded good results. Important facilities on Russian territory were hit last night.

Among them was the Petersburg Oil Terminal. The distance from Ukraine’s state border to this facility of Russia’s oil industry, which serves the war, is about 1,100 kilometers. Purely military targets at the Kronstadt base were also hit.

Another target was an enterprise in the Tambov region involved in the production of Russian weapons. The distance from the frontline is almost 600 kilometers.

I thank our warriors for their precision. Ukraine’s plan for long-range sanctions is being implemented exactly as needed to bring peace closer. Glory to Ukraine!

[RFE/RL Pressroom @RFERLPress]

Immediately after last night’s Russian attacks on Kyiv, @RadioSvoboda correspondent @SerhiiNuzhnenko was on the ground documenting the devastation.

Amid fear and destruction, @RFERL journalists keep showing up to report the truth.

[RFE/RL Pressroom @RFERLPress]

In the wake of brutal Russian assaults on Kyiv, @RadioSvoboda journalists endure these attacks while showing up every single day to document the truth of the war.

[RFE/RL Pressroom @RFERLPress]

Thank you @SenatorShaheen for continuing to highlight @RFERL journalist Farid Mehralizada’s case and amplifying the call for his freedom. Farid must be released. #FreeFarid

[Steve Capus @SteveCapus]

For my @radiosvoboda colleagues, work & life takes place in war zones. As Russia escalates targeting of Ukrainian civilians, there are no safe zones. For years, @RFERL’s Ukrainian service has selflessly documented every aspect of Russia’s desperate, failed war effort. #respect

[Steve Capus @SteveCapus]

Despicable, inexcusable. Do not look away from what’s happening in Ukraine. Look at all of it including the senseless murder of a 3 year old boy.

[Yulia Svyrydenko @Svyrydenko_Y]

A young victim of Russia's overnight attack on Dnipro was a 3-year-old boy.

Rescuers recovered his body from beneath the rubble of a four-story apartment building destroyed by a Russian strike.

A child who should have had his whole life ahead of him.

My deepest condolences to his family.

Every child killed by Russia is a tragedy that cannot be undone.

A reminder of events in the last month.

May 9th. Russia wants a parade in Moscow, threatens massive attack on Kyiv if it's disturbed. It wasn't disturbed.

May 14th, missile strike on Kyiv kills 24.

May 24th. 90 missiles & 600 drones attack Kyiv.

June 2nd. 50 missiles. 5 dead.

My interview with @RFERL is out. A message of friendship, co-operation and optimism - the only good way forward.
