Maybe just for me that I took the 📷 but this is incredibly powerful

A 🇺🇦 girl taking up Kalashnikov and learn how to use it while probably she would have just loved to be in a cafè with friends

But she felt it was right to be there & learn how to defend her country

Impressive

🇺🇦 Being in a war zone means not only staying professional but also human.

Last night, I decided to help some NGOs ‘Alliance4Children #Ukraine’ to unload an ambulance full of medicines and essential goods for children and orphans stuck in Kiev.

#Ukraine 🇺🇦: in a training center that helps civilians to learn how to use weapons and how to shoot. Impressive massive presence of women.

Anti raid sirens continuing to sound here in #Lviv this morning. Third time today. Since yesterday reports of possible invasion from the North West of #Ukraine from Belarus have started persistently to circulate.

Today is Father’s Day in Italy. But some fathers here don’t have their children anymore because of the war.

109 empty strollers sit in a Lviv square, representing children killed in the war.

🇺🇦 After crossing the border by foot via Poland, I finally made it to Ukraine, a country at war just 900 km from my hometown, Trieste.

After my war experiences in Iraq, Syria, Nagorno Karabakh, it’s the first time that a conflict is so close to our home. #Ukraine️

Personal presence in Kyiv of PM 🇵🇱 @MorawieckiM, Jarosław Kaczyński, PM 🇨🇿 @P_Fiala, PM 🇸🇮 @JJansaSDS is a proof of boundless support for all Ukrainians. The visit of three Prime Ministers on behalf of the #EU Council will be recorded in history textbooks.

#Ukraine Irpin. Andriy Kulik is trying to comfort his dog, paralyzed by fear. The dog refuses to walk after shelling.

[Mateusz Morawiecki @MorawieckiM]

Together with Deputy PM Jarosław Kaczyński, PM @P_Fiala and PM @JJansaSDS we are going to Kiev to meet President @ZelenskyyUa and PM @Denys_Shmyhal. Europe must guarantee Ukraine's independence and ensure that it is ready to help in Ukraine's reconstruction.

[Jens Stoltenberg @jensstoltenberg]

I have convened an extraordinary Summit on 24 March at #NATO HQ. We will address #Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine, our strong support for Ukraine, and further strengthening NATO’s deterrence & defence. At this critical time, North America & Europe must continue to stand together.

My overview of democracy being eroded in countries with close ties with the EU, for @theEUpost:

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Desperately needed assistance has to reach Ukraine.

So humanitarian corridors must be opened. Humanitarian convoys need safe passage.

Civilians must be allowed to leave besieged cities safely.

Russia must let our humanitarian partners deliver aid in the war zone.
