Kharkiv mourns today—Russia killed 12 civilians yesterday. These murders are a daily reality that could be prevented:
- Deploy more air defense systems
- Allow strikes deep into Russia with Western weapons
Why are these simple steps so difficult to take?

Now Russia laments how dear a friend Raisi has been. They've likely put a lot on him for buying drones and missiles

Mokhber, Iran's interim president, helped supply Moscow with missiles and drones to attack Ukraine. Another reason why waiting for Putin’s replacement is pointless; only Russian military defeat will bring change.

Putin must be really worried about those Shahed drone supplies—sending search and rescue teams to Iran to find Raisi. How considerate!

This was my last visit to our dacha near Lyptsi, planting apple trees. Afterward, Lyptsi was occupied, liberated, and now Russians are back. These untended trees are just one more reason to do all it takes until Russia is defeated.

'Driving home, I saw an attack on the recreation center and immediately headed there. It was awful. On my way back, two UMPBs (guided bombs) flew overhead and hit the park and cemetery'—Just another typical day in Kharkiv.

Last night, not only did Fury miss a few hooks, but so did the Russian military airfield and oil refinery in Krasnodar Krai

That moment when you realize size isn't everything 🤜🏻🇺🇦

Here's a special map with city names in both Ukrainian and Tatar. Crimean Tatars still face the horrors of Russian genocide, just like 80 years ago, unable to return home. But the time will come. Crimea will be liberated because #CrimeaisUkraine

'The West must accept that Ukraine has the right to strike targets in Russia' - Timothy Garton Ash. Otherwise, it's like fighting with one hand tied behind your back. When will this simple idea be acknowledged?

Honored to meet Timothy Garton Ash after his amazing speech on winning for Ukraine at Lviv Media Forum. He just donated his 2024 Lionel Gelber Prize for 'Homelands: A Personal History of Europe' to the Armed Forces of Ukraine! 🇺🇦💪🏻

Evacuation from Vovchansk becomes extremely dangerous. Today, Russia bombed evacuation point. With each passing day, more people are desperate to escape. This 92-year-old woman, who lived through WWII occupation, says this is far worse than anything she’s ever experienced.

The mood in Kharkiv is a mix of anger, anxiety, and defiance as Ukraine’s second city prepares to defend itself against a new Russian offensive, writes Maria Avdeeva in #UkraineAlert .

Kharkiv Update: AFU slowed Russian advance, with the deepest penetration reaching 10 km. Situation is most difficult in Vovchansk, Russia's primary target. Russia continues daily bombardments of Kharkiv, with two KABs just landing in the city. The biggest threat remains Russia

Russia's Black Sea Fleet base in Novorossiysk, along with the oil terminal and Tuapse refinery, was attacked by drones. Well, well, better luck hiding them next time.

“We could have destroyed them, but we were not allowed to”—Kharkiv residents are angry about restrictions on using Western weapons inside Russia.

People in the Kharkiv metro are singing the anthem on Vyshyvanka Day today. These parades have been held for years, but this is the first one underground—a bold stand against the Russian advance, showing Kharkiv’s strength and resilience. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦💪🏻

Russian troops are on the streets of Vovchansk. The situation is critical. Kharkiv police continues evacuation
