In the first half of 2026, Ukraine received three times fewer air defense missiles compared to the previous year, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said following a meeting with military leaders. Supplies of anti-ballistic missiles decreased, even though Ukraine’s partners have them available, he said

Cornyn: "There's nothing we could do to rein in the president"
Journalism once vowed to “comfort the afflicted & afflict the comfortable.” Yet as Ukrainian civilians are being hunted by Russian drones and returned POWs show signs of torture, western media outlets look away. Silence isn’t neutrality. It’s suicidal. Ignore atrocity long enough & it comes home.
That was the stated purpose behind the establishment of the branch of government in which you serve but go off king

"Olga Stefanishyna stated that she herself resigned. "This is my own decision, dictated by the personal circumstances discussed earlier," she wrote." #Ukraine hromadske.ua/personaliyi/...

You might not know that Ukraine has a language, distinct from Russian, not a dialect. Westerners take it for granted that dozens of countries speak Spanish & Arabic - noone questions their unique histories or right to autonomy -but somehow Ukrainians should just disappear into their invader's empire
Putin’s war against Ukraine isn’t just about gaining territory, it aims to obliterate Ukraine as a sovereign country and culture.
🔴 Day 38 of Ukraine’s 40-Day Operation. Ukraine targeted Russian fuel, power, and air defenses in a massive overnight operation.
Among Ukraine's targets across Russia this morning is the Saratov Oil Refinery.
🔴 Day 37 of Ukraine’s 40-Day Operation. Today’s strikes stretched 1,600 kilometers deep into Russia, as well as across Crimea and the Black Sea—targeting refineries, rail infrastructure, a naval drone base, and a Rosatom cargo ship.
This is the story of the Voronov family, who lived in a small village near Kryvyi Rih. Everyone in the house, including 8 children, were murdered when a Russian missile completely destroyed their home. #Ukraine hromadske.ua/viyna/268684...
«Дивлюсь на кратер — і розумію, що це якраз те місце, де було ліжечко малого». 10 смертей однією ракетою: трагедія родини Воронових
Цей будинок був крайнім на вулиці. Сюди Артем і Олена Воронові зі своїми десятьма дітьми переїхали 2020-го. За хатою — вже пустка, трохи далі елеватор, а збоку через одну вулицю — рейки залізниці. Ни...

Thanks for responding reasonably. We ARE protesting every day. People have died for this. It's hard to see because we're so big and the media can eat a bag of dicks. People are resisting in lots of ways beyond public protest. I see it all around me, and I want to honor their efforts.
🔴 Day 36 of Ukraine’s 40-Day Operation. Today’s strikes focused on Russia’s logistics and support infrastructure, including the first reported attack on an Ozon hub, another Wildberries warehouse, a major Lukoil refinery, and military infrastructure in Volgograd.
I think a good point to make here for all the useful idiots and trolls that call President Zelensky a dictator. Under martial law in Ukraine, the right to peaceful assembly and public demonstrations can be legally restricted. But it is obviously not restricted, unlike in putin's totalitarian russia.
I hope for the best for Ukraine, but this is a little hard to watch. I want Ukraine to do well and repel the Orcs. The thing is, if he is replaced back as Defense Minister, there is no way he will follow any direction from Zelenskyy, leaving confusion in organization. I am afraid of that scenario.
A busy night for Ukraine's Armed Forces, striking targets from Volgograd to Dagestan. 🔹 Volgograd: Reports indicate that the "Lukoil-Volgogradneftepererabotka" oil refinery and a Wildberries logistics center were hit. Large fires broke out at the sites of the attacks.
Iran has been helping Ru since 2022. Now that Ukr has struck an Iranian military shipment, the right questions to ask are: why isn’t Iran focusing on its own défense? Will it finally reconsider aiding Ru and stop risking more Ukr strikes? « Why would Zelensky do this » is the wrong question!
Day 610 of daily, uninterrupted protests in 8+ cities in Georgia.
🔴 Day 35 of Ukraine’s 40-Day Operation. Ukrainian strikes hit key Russian targets, cutting off oil and disrupting enemy military infrastructure.

On the night of July 28-29, 2022, Russian forces blew up a prison barrack in Olenivka, occupied Donechchyna, where 193 Azov POWs were being held. At least 53 were killed. A witness recalls that many people died because evacuation was never even attempted.🧵
Ukrainians wrote "children" outside the Mariupol theater where families were sheltering. Russia bombed them anyway. Now we're supposed to care whether this is one e-commerce chain versus another? Gtfo

This does NOT mean the bill has passed, as some other media outlets have mistakenly claimed.
The U.S. Senate has supported the initiation of consideration of a bill on extensive sanctions against Russia and its "shadow fleet." During a procedural vote, 86 senators supported the start of consideration of the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026, according to "Suspilne."
There are few spaces that produce more bullshit than discussing Israel-Ukraine relations. Seems very hard for many people to grasp that UA has its own reasons for hostility to Iran and the Axis, all tied to support for Russia little to do with “Zionism.”
Ukrainian forces struck several Russian targets on July 27 and overnight into July 28, including the Prioritet combine in Russia’s Udmurt Republic and supply depots in occupied Crimea, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported.
