🙏🇺🇦 Zelensky: At night, the Russians launched a combined strike. They struck Sumy, Kharkiv, Dnipro regions. There are wounded and dead. Russian military enterprises, Russian logistics, Russian airports must feel that the Russian war has real consequences for them.

Robert "Madiar" Brovdi: NATO members' security doctrines require urgent revision. "I don't know which NATO member state is capable of defending even one of its cities while enduring 200-300 Shahed drones every single day, seven days a week, without pause⤵️

This is how millions of Ukrainians have coped with 41 months of near nightly Russian aerial bombardment: sheltering in subway stations. This is Kyiv's subway overnight. Powerful photos by Serhii Nuzhnenko.

These are Ukrainian farmers from Kherson region. They're harvesting watermelons, which is vital for their livelihood. They brought the child with them because their city is constantly under Russian drone attacks, and it's unclear where it's safer to stay.

My new paper doi.org/10.1093/esr/... explains that personal networks expose us to different degrees to economic distress, which shapes public opinion (here, institutional trust). Yet institutional trust research has largely overlooked networks. #sociology #netsky

Today, russia attacked a house in the Chernihiv region with a drone for no military reason whatsoever, murdering a person. Why? What did it achieve them? There is a dozen of such news every day with no coverage in media.

A couple in Kyiv stands before the ruins of a building, clinging to each other, tears falling as their son remains beneath the rubble. Russia will claim it struck NATO generals and whatnot. But they are just murdering sleeping civilians, tearing families apart, and turning homes into dust.

Florida child welfare officers found a 17-year-old living in a shed with no food or water. They sent him to a foster home... and then reported him to ICE, whereupon he was handcuffed and shackled and marched to detention. Not only is that victimizing him again, it violates Florida's own rules.

The decision to alert immigration authorities to Henry’s status as an undocumented migrant is at odds with decades of child welfare practice in Florida – and it appears to violate a 30-year-old state Department of Children and Families rule that prohibits workers from acting upon a child’s status. Fran Allegra, a children’s attorney who ran Miami-Dade’s private foster care agency from 2004 until 2014, said if DCF’s action in Henry’s case represents a formal change in policy, it “puts Florida children at risk, and introduces a new chilling effect on reports to the [state’s] child abuse hotline. Reports about undocumented families are already low. This shift makes the chance for reporting, and, therefore, rescuing kids, less likely.”

Florida welfare authorities have turned over a 17-year-old foster child to ICE. He has already been separated from his mother, who was deported. He may have been the victim of labor trafficking. Yet, he was taken from his foster home in shackles. A minor. www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

Florida child welfare authorities turned over a 17-year-old foster child to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, sparking intense criticism that the action could hinder efforts to protect children in the state’s large immigrant communities. The Honduran teen was removed from his Pensacola foster home Monday morning — in handcuffs and shackles – and transferred immediately into ICE custody. The boy and his mother had crossed the southwest border into the U.S. without permission, sources familiar with the case told the Miami Herald. After being separated from his mother, who was later deported, the boy traveled from Texas to Pensacola, where he sought work. He entered foster care after he was found living in a shed with no source of food, shelter or income, records show. The boy, whose first name is Henry, also may have been a victim of labor trafficking. The Herald is not fully naming him to protect his privacy.
