Reporter in Ukraine 🇺🇦

The shamefull collaboration between Irish politics and russia is exposed: Irish politicians have evaded questions about the Aughinish refinery supplying materials to the russian war, so Caolan R. confronted government minister Niall Collins. 'I don't think it should be sanctioned,' Collins replied.

Kudos to Irish journalist and film producer Caolan Robertson for single-handedly dismantling the myth of his country's 'neutrality' by exposing the collaboration between Ireland's political elite and the russian terror state!

Every day, ships leave this russian owned factory in Ireland straight for St Petersburg carrying thousands of tonnes of raw alumina for the war machine. There’s corruption everywhere. Locals tell me politicians are bought by oligarchs. Ireland is no longer militarily neutral.

Tree of the Day this beauty in one of Orban’s many mansions that most Hungarians don’t know about because of his grip on the media. Great drone work Caolan! Tomorrow a chance for Hungary to say no to corruption, no to Russian and US interference, and goodbye to Orban, the populists’ populist

This has been the worst week for russian oil ever. Baltic oil ports are still burning. Repairs will be a nightmare with labour shortages & broken supply chains. 40% of the Kremlins oil export capacity HALTED. Ukraine has unleashed complete hell on russia & it’s not over yet ⏰

European history is being erased by Russia. A 17th century church in Lviv was deliberately hit by a drone. The footage shows it diving straight in. 630 Ukrainian religious sites have been destroyed since 2022 Meanwhile Russia parades itself as the ‘defender of Christianity’

Ukraine has seriously perfected their drone warfare. Every day there’s brand new footage of helicopters & air defences being destroyed. More land has been retaken in the last month than any since 2023. 4,000 russian losses every 48 hours & these numbers will continue to increase

Moscow residents are making videos complaining they don’t have internet. It’s the first time they’ve complained about anything since the full scale invasion. They don’t care about russia’s war crimes. Only that they can’t watch Netflix. This isnt just Putins war; it’s russia’s

Orban is blackmailing and threatening Ukraine. His entire campaign is attacking Zelenskyy. All because he’s in bed with russia. Kremlin election meddlers have been spotted with him. He is desperately clinging to power to avoid jail for corruption where he belongs.

Last year, Zelenskyy warned Trump that war would reach US soil and that drone warfare would spread. He was told to shut up. Now, Shaheed drones are crashing into US air bases & crippling global oil. Everything Ukraine warned the world would happen came true

I just watched a drone explode over Maidan at 9 a.m.,, debris is raining down over Freedom Square. Flying drones over a city centre is indiscriminate terror. While the rest of the world starts Monday morning getting ready for work, Ukrainians have to head to bomb shelters.

Moscow’s internet is gone. Ministers and commanders are “falling out of windows” and being arrested. Russian soldiers are posting videos complaining about losses. Ukraine advancing on the battlefield. Putin has shut down Russia because he is terrified of a coup.

Journalists are banned from the White House for asking Trump tough questions. Meanwhile in Kyiv I interviewed President Zelenskyy with zero restrictions. Funny how the “dictatorship” still lets reporters ask anything.

For years Ukraine tried to warn the world about russia, about disinformation, and about how war itself was changing. Many leaders brushed it aside. Now the same countries are asking Ukraine for help.

Ukraine is sending thousands of these drone interceptors to protect US air bases in the Gulf. The country once told to “say thank you” is now exporting the future of air defense. Turns out Ukraine had the cards all along.
