A school in Sumy after a Russian gen0cide attack on it while children were inside. There is no justice great enough for Russia's crimes in Ukraine.
You think genocide = "lots of civilians died"? By that standard just about every fucking war in history was a "genocide". You dipshits have propagandized and watered down the term to meaninglessness.
Don’t worry, The Guardian said the National Academy of Sciences “has longstanding ties to Ukraine’s defence sector,” so you’re all good – bombed a military target after all. Big thanks to The Guardian for handing Russia an excuse for the strike.
No one should allow any Orcs or anyone from Belarus to play in any games at all.
The UEFA should not allow Belarus to play, and Finland should boycott this game
@michaeldweiss.bsky.social tells @mpolymer1.bsky.social how Alina Habba’s wedding put FBI Director Kash Patel in the same room as a former FBI informant suspected of being a double agent. "These MAGA weddings are like the Star Wars Mos Eisley cantinas for counterintelligence."

250 russian soldiers surrender in Lyman and get taken as POW so russia decides to smash hospitals and cultural buildings in Kyiv. What a completely pathetic loser nation.
3rd Army Corps used unmanned VBIEDs to breach russian defences in Donbas. Old Soviet BTR-60s, no crew inside, packed with explosives and driven by remote control into the strongest fortifications. Nove, Ridkodub and Katerynivka liberated, over 250 russians taken prisoner.

A range of up to 30 km and 1.5 hours of flight time: Vyriy Industries has unveiled the Slavic, a new Ukrainian tactical reconnaissance UAV. 👏👏👏👏👏🫡🐱🇺🇦
🚨 BREAKING: Russia targeted central Kyiv, striking the building of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

The Swiss Vatnik Party initiative was strongly rejected today! A yes would have greatly reduced Switzerland's ability to sanction belligerent states, such as russia.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, we’ll introduce the “Safeguard Swiss neutrality” ballot initiative, which goes to a nationwide vote in Switzerland on 27 September. Superficially, its promise can sound appealing: peace, sovereignty, and permanent armed neutrality. But most of that is a distraction:

Yesterday, Somali pirates operating in the Gulf of Aden hijacked a commercial oil tanker and held the crew hostage for ransom. Instead of relying on international naval forces or paying the ransom, the owner's tribe took matters into their own hands.
“We’re launching the Army of Robots.” Former Minister of Defense of Ukraine had just posted this video. Today, drones account for over 95% of battlefield strikes in Ukraine. The future of warfare is being determined in Ukraine.
In India, a monkey broke into a liquor store, drank a tincture from a bottle, and fell asleep right on top of the boxes of alcohol.

The "Cameraphone" was a revolutionary portable wooden gramophone manufactured in the 1920s, mostly coming out of Germany and Great Britain. Designed to look precisely like a folding box camera of the era, it was the 1920s equivalent of a portable music player. IG: @popmania.es
Adolfo Kaminsky was 18 when he was recruited into the French Resistance's forgery operation. Born in Buenos Aires to a Russian Jewish family, he'd already spent years learning the chemistry of dyes & inks. Those skills became a weapon against Nazi persecution. #EternalLight 1/10
“I can’t stay silent anymore. I don’t want you to just end the SMO — I want you to leave my country completely. There are a lot of us. A lot of us. We’re just silent because we’re scared.” — 14-year-old Daniel from Chelyabinsk addresses Putin
Dimwitted antisemites think they are heroes. This impressive mind holds a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in drama from the The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C. You can't make this shit up.
AND NOW, SOME GOOD NEWS FROM RUSSIA… Bears have started entering Russian cities en masse. At least 25 attacks have been recorded since June, with sightings and incidents reported across multiple regions. Nature is healing. 🐻
Oh, the Schaudenfreude! #TrumpWarRoom goes to war with itself and I’ve got the popcorn.
"The political consulting firm that runs several of President Donald Trump’s top social media accounts is suing one of its co-founders, accusing him of embezzling and gambling away millions of dollars, including spending company funds on luxury sports cars, designer clothing and first-class travel."
Guterres's final lie in his valedictory address: "Gaza represents a scale of death and destruction unlike anything I have seen". Even by most biased accounts, that means 70K dead, mostly Hamas fighters. This vatnik and terrorist supporter is finally gone. Hat tip Jake Wallis Simons, Telegraph.
