There are so many defenders of Ukrainian Civilisation on this site. Please consider supporting Mykhailo Myna, who was wounded on October 17, 2023, and is now a double amputee. Please read his story, it's the least you could do. ctzn24.com/en/hero/300

It takes years to educate a human being. It takes Russians seconds to intentionally destroy it.

Kharkiv today: A Russian glide bomb struck near a tram stop, killing a young woman‼️ She was only 23. Many others were injured.

⚠️ Ukraine Daily Update: 16-17 June 2026 Brendan Kelley: @kelley7622.tochnyi.info In Trostianetska hromada, Sumy Oblast, an 11-year-old girl, two men aged 42 and 48, and a 47-year-old woman were injured as a result of a Russian drone strike on a gas station.

That leaves one more radial-forging machine in Russia - at the ‘Electrostal’ Metallurgical Plant "Electrostal", located in the city of Elektrostal, roughly 58 kilometres east of Moscow. 6/11

If Ukraine hit Barikady’s radial forging machine, this would have a significant impact on Russia’s ability to forge barrels, warheads and other components. The spare parts Russia needs to repair this machine are no longer available after companies GFM and SKS cut all links with it. 5/11

🧵If Ukraine struck 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬⁣ part of the Barrikady factory complex, it is significant. This morning's FP-5 'Flamingo' strike on the JSC "FNVTS 'Titan-Barrikady' plant in Volgograd highlights a critical vulnerability in Russia’s supply chain for its long-range missile capabilities. 1/11

Welcome home, heroes! 160 defenders returned from russian captivity today 💙💛

Every time there's a prisoner exchange, I go on Threads and endlessly like posts about people reuniting with their loved ones after russian captivity. Somehow, the Threads algorithm has become my mental therapy.

Updated map of the regions of Russia where there are shortages of gasoline or diesel. As always it's worse in the occupied territories. Added 7 regions. Oryol, Buryatia, Bryansk, Novgorod, Krasnoyarsk, Novosibirsk and Yamal.

Russian doctors have been complicit in many war crimes during Russia's war against Ukraine. Ukraine's justice list for them will be long, with no statute of limitations. khpg.org/en/1608815869

Medical torture to the end against Crimean Tatar political prisoner with malignant tumour and his family

Russia is recruiting Africans for troll farms and influence ops targeting Europe. From fake accounts spreading division in the Netherlands to amplifying migration fears and anti-EU sentiment, Moscow is weaponising African labour for its hybrid war.

This Father's day, I'm thinking of all the Ukrainian fathers who cannot see their daughter. For children everywhere, the absence of Dad from children's lives is the absence of an irreplaceable rock.

The return of Ukraine's stolen people's from captivity in Russia is dependent on the defeat of the Russian armed forces. It is a moral imperative to support Ukraine's victory in this war.

🔴 Ukrainian special forces strike Crimea’s only gas storage site. Operators from the 413th "Raid" Regiment hit the Hlibivka underground gas storage site during the night of June 19, damaging the only facility of its kind on the peninsula.

Kateryna fled occupied Mariupol and rebuilt her business in Kyiv. The latest russian strike destroyed it too. "I have ten sets of keys, but nothing left to open. One fit my Mariupol apartment, eight fit the shops we lost there. The last one fits my Kyiv shop that burned down." 💔

🧵 What is the true scale of Russia’s Shahed drone production at Alabuga? We analysed Russian media footage of Alabuga to estimate the total Shahed engine output at this infamous facility in need of deletion - and we observed how production there is being scaled up. 1/8

We once looked on passively as the Taliban destroyed 1,500 year old Buddhist statues. We must refuse to do nothing as Russia, likewise, deliberately targets the oldest, most beautiful religious churches in Ukraine such as the Lavra. This is a night which really should change the war.

June 13 is the Day of the (first) Liberation of Mariupol. On that day in 2014, the Ukrainian army freed the town of russian invaders and terrorists. By 2022, Mariupol grew into a rising star at the Azov shore. I hope to live to see the second Liberation Day of Mariupol.

📋 The Smyrtos, the Russian shadow fleet Aframax tanker which the UK intercepted last night, loaded 106 000 tons at Ust Luga last week. It left port during the week of May 31st to June 6th.

Another example of the Adverse Childhood Experiences that Russians perpetrate on Ukrainian children. In this case that of physical, emotional, or sexual abuse.

The stripping of these Ukrainian childrens' cultural identity happens by force - and is one of the many potential Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) they suffer at the hands of the Russians who perpetrate these war crimes.

What happens to a child taken from Ukraine? (1/12)

The inflection in this BBC anchor's voice on "unprecedented" is a vocal and emotional contagion - influencing how people react. As if the theft of thousands of Ukrainian children merit any comparison to a legitimate strike on an oil refinery during an 'economic forum'. Do better, Jane Hill.

During russia's attack on Kyiv on June 2, Veronika, a mother of two was killed while running with her children to a shelter. Her sons, aged 2 and 4, were taken to Okhmatdyt children's hospital. The mother did everything she could to save her children. She did not survive. 💔 Source: Suspilne, TSN.

Fascinating read.
