Fuck-up No. 4. “You are incredibly resilient and especially courageous. We admire you.” — Steve Witkoff Special Envoy Steve Witkoff to Ukrainians. If you truly admired us, you would not be flying to Moscow to negotiate our future with the man responsible for killing us. We don’t need your admiration. We need you to understand who the aggressor is. You praise Ukrainians for their courage while treating Putin as a legitimate partner whose demands deserve accommodation. Do you even understand how absurd this looks? You disrespect Ukraine. You undermine America’s credibility. And you normalize Moscow’s position while calling it diplomacy. I genuinely don’t know what else to call this anymore. Useful idiots The White House President Donald J. Trump for Moscow? Because your actions are making that description increasingly difficult to avoid. #Ukraine #StandWithUkraine #Witkoff #Trump #Putin #USForeignPolicy #RussianAggression #UkraineUnderAttack #SupportUkraine #StopRussia #PeaceForUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState #SlavaUkraini

Air raid alert in Kyiv — a MiG-31K has taken off. A Russian fighter capable of launching ballistic and hypersonic missiles is in the air. Reports say Russia is preparing to intensify strikes on Kyiv: up to 18 Iskander-M / KN-23 ballistic missiles and 7 “Zircon” hypersonic rockets could be aimed at the capital tonight. The enemy is focusing on energy infrastructure, transport hubs, railway stations, and defense-industry sites. But these bastards can also hit residential buildings. We keep reminding each other: take shelters seriously, follow the alerts, stay close to safe rooms. Right now, people across Europe and the world are sitting on terraces, having drinks, enjoying summer evenings. And at the same time, we are here in Kyiv, preparing for another hellish night — and possibly for the loss of someone we love. This is what the war looks like in real time. #AntiRussiaSocialClub #russia #war #Ukraine

In support of Henry, I want to confirm every word. Every time I came to Berlin, Henry was there — at Ukrainian events, or standing with a huge Ukrainian flag, counter-protesting pro-Russian demonstrations. I first met him in March 2025, during my first visit to Berlin. Someone was showing me around the city when, in the distance, I suddenly saw a huge blue-and-yellow flag. I immediately said: “Oh look, that’s our demonstration!” 🇺🇦 The person with me was confused: “But the Ukrainian demonstration was two days ago. There was nothing announced for today.” As we got closer, I realised it was Henry. He had come with his Ukrainian flag to counter a demonstration where people were displaying messages like “Stop Russophobia,” “Don’t give weapons to Ukraine,” and “Russia is not the enemy.” Then the police detained him. When I understood that Henry was being accused of violating the rules around the demonstration, I decided that if I couldn’t legally do what he had been doing, I could at least use my voice. So while the police were restraining Henry, I started shouting. And something happened that I will never forget. People passing by began stopping. Germans came over and said things like: “We Germans support Ukraine.” “Russia is a terrorist state.” “Thank you for defending us.” Other Germans went directly to confront the demonstrators and ask what kind of disgraceful message they were trying to promote in Germany. Even tourists stopped. “I’m from Britain. I support Ukraine.” “I’m from North Africa. I support Ukraine.” People, I have rarely seen anything like the reaction I saw that evening in Berlin. I love Berlin. I love the people there, and I will never forget the support for Ukraine that I witnessed that night. And Henry is one of those people. I saw him again this year. He came to Café Kyiv and then to the demonstration the following day. I was genuinely so happy to see him because I still remember the evening we first met. I tell Ukrainians about him. I tell Ukrainian soldiers about him. So when I see what is happening to him now, I cannot stay silent. What happened is unacceptable. Please support Henry. Share his story so that more people can see what is happening. The Russians aren’t reporting him for no reason. And what happened is unacceptable. Please support him!!!! Share this so others can see it!!! The Russian House was a hub for collecting humanitarian aid and other support for the Russian military, and served as an FSB center. It is not just a cultural center. Stop the Russian hydra!!! #StandWithHenry #StandWithUkraine #Ukraine #Berlin #Germany #StopRussianAggression #RussianInfluence #StopRussianPropaganda #RussiaIsATerroristState #SupportUkraine #SlavaUkraini

The whole world must see this. A Ukrainian serviceman released on May 15, 2026, testifies to torture, starvation, denial of medical care, and deaths inside the Kamyshin detention center in Russia. Ukrainian prisoners — both military personnel and civilians — are being held in inhumane conditions. International organizations are denied access. The world must act immediately. #SaveUkrainianPOWs #HumanRights #Ukraine

This morning just completely broke me. I cried. I asked God: why? I tried to calm myself down, pull myself together, and convince myself once again to keep living. Not to give up. To keep doing what I can for Ukraine and for our people. But today is especially hard. In just one day — more attacks, more wounded, more deaths. And I look at the names of the cities in the news and realize: these are not just names. This is the map of my life. Russia stole Crimea from me — my home. Russia is destroying Zaporizhzhia, where my university years passed. Russia strikes Kryvyi Rih over and over again — the city where I was born. Russia daily devastates Nikopol — the city where I studied, worked, and gave years of volunteering to. Russia is destroying the Dnipro region — a land I know not from a map or the news. Russia strikes Kyiv — my home. Russia ruins Odesa and Chornomorsk — places where another part of my heart, my memories, and one of the most important periods of my life remain. Russia destroyed the Kherson region and brought occupation to the children I cared for for years. And yesterday, I was watching a video from Kramatorsk — and at some point, I just couldn’t take it anymore. I started choking on my tears. Because day after day, I am watching the destruction of places where I lived, studied, worked, loved, served, volunteered, made friends, and was happy. And I am haunted by a terrifying thought: where will I return to one day? What will be left of the places where my life used to be? Where will I be able to walk down a familiar street and say, "This is where I once was"? Russia isn't just destroying buildings. It is trying to destroy our memory. Our cities. Our connections. Our sense of home. Entire chunks of our biographies. Russia has destroyed a huge part of my life. And at the same time, over and over again, I see discussions about whether Ukraine should explain something else, concede something else, prove to the world yet again that the aggressor is indeed the aggressor. How much more? How many more destroyed cities? How many murdered children? How many people must lose their homes, families, and entire parts of their own past before people stop making excuses for Russia? Russia is an aggressor state. Russia brought this war into our homes. Russia must be stopped and held accountable for what it has done. But today, I am allowing myself to cry. And then, I will stand up again. And I will keep doing everything I can for Ukraine. Because if they are trying to erase our memory — we will preserve it. If they are trying to force us into silence — we will speak even louder. And if after all this, someone still wants to ask me, "Is Russia really that bad?" Today, I have no diplomatic answer. Fuck you. #StopRussianAggression #Crimea #Zaporizhzhia #KryvyiRih #Nikopol #Kyiv #Odesa #Kherson #Kramatorsk NATO, United Nations, European Commission, United 24.

🇺🇦 FUNDRAISER FOR A UGV FOR THE “DA VINCI WOLVES” Вовки Да Вінчі Dear friends NAFO Fellas and Smookfleets, We are happy to welcome you and finally announce the launch of our fundraiser! This is more than just a fundraiser. It is our shared superpower. Because this fundraiser helps make it possible for robots to take the risks — instead of people — wherever possible. Today, Defence Robotics UA is working to make unmanned ground vehicles increasingly effective and capable of taking on missions in places where sending a person would mean exposing them to extreme danger. Because every human life is priceless. During my fieldwork with the “Da Vinci Wolves,” I saw with my own eyes the aftermath of a strike on their position and a destroyed UGV. I also saw firsthand just how essential this technology is for the unit and how it helps them carry out their missions while reducing the risks to human lives. 🎯 Our goal is €5,000. It is a significant amount, but it represents only part of the funding currently still needed to purchase a new UGV. With the rising cost of components and equipment, this need must be met as quickly as possible. Most importantly: we do not receive or hold any of the funds raised. All of your donations go directly to Defence Robotics UA. Our role is to help this fundraiser reach as many people as possible and, together, close the remaining funding gap. Every €1, ₴1 or $1 matters. Every donation is a contribution to technology that can reduce the risks faced by people. Every share means one more person who may be able to help. Ukraine is fighting for freedom, for the right to determine its own future, for independence and democracy. Equipment can be replaced. A human life cannot. 💳 SUPPORT THE FUNDRAISER You can find the link to the official fundraiser in our bio.

Right now, on my way to Ukraine during a transfer in Romania, I was emotionally hurt and experienced discrimination because I am Ukrainian. I was told that I should “go back to Ukraine.” I have never heard such insults in my life. I have never been attacked just for being Ukrainian before. I am currently in a state of shock and literally shaking while people mock me, discuss the fact that I am Ukrainian, and say that I deserve this. I have never offended people and have always tried to look for light… in everything. And I am simply devastated and broken right now by what happened — especially knowing that my country is protecting these people, their countries, and the EU, while they allow themselves to behave like this.

After this morning’s drone attack on infrastructure in Moscow, I see many statements from Russians saying they don’t like it, as well as polls about how Russians feel after the attack in various public channels. I also see sympathy being expressed for “ordinary Russians.” Well, I don’t care about that. Just like all of us living in Ukraine. Because nobody asked us, and nobody asks us, whether we like sitting under drone attacks. Whether we like the sound of exploding missiles. Whether we like living under all these bombardments. We are forced to sit and survive. And yes, we want all Russians to live in a state of anxiety. We want them to be afraid. We want them to feel the horror that they have brought upon others. Because they brought this war into our home. And every single one of them must bear responsibility for their inaction. Period. Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. If you would like to support my field reporting, documentation work, and travels across Ukraine, you can do so via PayPal or Buy Me a Coffee. ☕️🇺🇦 We are waiting for more. #Ukraine #war #russia 🅿️ay🅿️al: [email protected] BuyMeaCoffe:

One of the favorite ongoing series among Ukrainians and many of our international friends has become watching Russian panic unfold in real time. 😁❤️ For a second day, Putin stands in Moscow insisting that everything is fine, that the economy is stable, and that the war is not affecting Russia. Meanwhile, ordinary Russians are suddenly asking: “What happened?” “What is going on?” “What caused this?” And the most astonishing part? The war has been going on for more than four years. Only now are many people beginning to realize that there is a war. For years, millions of Ukrainians have lived under missile attacks, drone strikes, occupation, deportations, and constant fear. Entire cities have been destroyed. Thousands of lives have been taken. Yet many Russians remained silent as long as the consequences were happening to someone else. What concerns them now is not the suffering inflicted on others, but the inconvenience reaching their own lives. That is why Ukraine needs continued support. Support sanctions. Support international law. Support accountability. Support Ukraine. Because this war is not only about Ukraine. It is about whether aggression, terror, and the destruction of civilian lives can be rewarded in the 21st century. Glory to Ukraine. 🇺🇦 Glory to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. 💙💛 #russia #war

No, this is not the 20th century and not World War II. This is Kherson. 03.06.2026. - 05.06.2026 And this is the reality people in Europe are choosing to live alongside — and the reality of how this enemy will eventually behave toward the EU as well. The enemy burns people alive inside their own homes. #Kherson #Ukraine #War
