Former journalist Iryna Levchenko is being held in a torture chamber in Melitopol. Last May, the occupiers detained her together with her husband, Oleksandr. The journalist's sister, Olena, told about this.

During last night alone, the Russian army used almost 40 "Shaheds" against Ukraine. Importantly, most of them were shot down by our defenders of the sky.
When Russian aviation launches more than a hundred guided bombs against our cities, villages, and frontline positions every day, we need reliable protection against them.
This iso possible if we destroy the carriers of these bombs – Russian military aircraft – wherever they are. Our sufficient long-range capabilities should be a fair response to Russian terror. Everyone who supports us in this supports the defense against terror.

Russia blocked the speech of the Czech ambassador at the UN, let's make sure everybody can read it - here is the transcript and the link: @CzechMFA
"Colleagues, First and foremost, on behalf of Czechia, I wish to express my profound sorrow and sadness at the attacks on Okhmatdyt Children's Hospital as well as on several maternity hospitals in Kyiv and across Ukraine, resulting in many dead and wounded. What happened yesterday is unconscionable. It is beyond the pale. Czechia condemns in the strongest terms the devastating attacks perpetrated by the Russian Federation. The horrific spectacle of relentless death and destruction caused by Russia’s blatant aggression reached a new dark chapter yesterday. Targeting small, innocent and sick children with hypersonic missiles is utterly shocking.
Directing attacks against civilians and civilian objects is a war crime, and any such attacks are unacceptable and must end immediately. Regrettably, Russia continues to completely disregard international law as well as claims for durable and just peace. It is more than obvious that arguments such as “mistaken strike” or “Ukrainian air defence caused it” do not hold any ground here. Russian military must have known perfectly well what civilian targets they aimed at and what damage these strikes would cause.
Colleagues, No matter what lies the Russian propagandists continue to spread, the simple truth remains: Putin’s Russia is the aggressor. The launching of this war of territorial aggression is Russia’s choice.
The gross violation of the UN Charter and international law is Russia’s choice. The bombing of schools and hospitals is Russia’s choice. The killing of children and civilians is Russia’s choice. Let that sink in. Those responsible for this war must be held to account. Colleagues, Ukraine needs our support. Ukraine is defending its territorial integrity and fighting for its survival. I want to use this opportunity to reaffirm that Czech support for Ukraine remains unwavering.
The international community must take concrete steps to end the war and support Ukraine’s sovereignty within its internationally recognised borders. Czechia is determined to work with all those who genuinely uphold the key principles of the UN Charter to bring an end to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine once and for all. Thank you. "

For 20 years, rewarding Russia's ever expanding atrocities with territorial concessions and diplomacy has only produced increasingly heinous atrocities.
Now Russians are massacring our children.
When does it end?

DISGRACE
Sanction the Indian leader & stop issuing visas to his citizens.
A leader that flaunts that he is violating US 🇺🇸 & EU 🇪🇺 sanctions must be held accountable.

⚡️⚡️⚡️ Within the next minutes Kyiv 🇺🇦 will suffer a significant attack by Russian missiles.
👉 Russia is openly murdering civilians. Putin does not want peace!
Putin’s goals have not changed: The annihilation of the Ukrainian state. Putin must be defeated.

Bravo, @ElinaSvitolina🇺🇦
After making it to to #WIMBLEDON’s quarterfinals, our ambassador couldn’t hold back emotions. Not because of her win, but due to today’s missile attack on Ukraine💔
The audience supported her with an ovation. Thank you, Elina!

Arm Ukraine 🇺🇦 to win.

Doctor Oleh Holubchenko was operating on a baby when a Russian missile hit the hospital.
He was flung back onto the operating table, but he didn’t stop to place the baby on artificial respiration.
Doctors moved the baby to another hospital and finished the surgery. The wounded doctor walked outside to help in the cleanup of the rubble 💔

👉 No negotiations with Russia.

I understand that it is physically painful to like such videos, but this is the only way to raise posts in X-algorithms, people need to see the truth about what the Russians are doing on the territory of Ukraine.
After a Russian drone spotted volunteers delivering humanitarian aid to civilians in the Ukrainian town of Chasiv Yar, they all started to be shelled, and this trend is constant, according to local residents.
Thank you volunteers for the video so we can have a chance to show it to the world!

On this day a year ago, Russian occupiers blew up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant's dam and structures.
It was a deliberate and premeditated crime, one of their most serious crimes against the environment and people in our entire region. It is also impossible to estimate the exact number of people killed because the most severe damage occurred in the occupied part of the Kherson region.
At least tens of thousands of people were affected, and hundreds of thousands were left without access to clean drinking water. Large areas of Ukraine were flooded, and the Kakhovka Reservoir, which supported the stability of Europe's largest nuclear power plant, Zaporizhzhia NPP, was destroyed. The direct consequences of this crime were felt in neighboring countries in the Black Sea region.
During the past year, our state and people have been able to eliminate some of the consequences of the Russian attack. I am grateful to everyone who helped save lives, provide housing, and restore the drinking water supply. This is important. No less important work will be done to bring Russia to justice for this and other war crimes, as well as all of Russia's deliberate attacks on people, humanity, and all living things. Everyone who works to bring justice to Ukraine and rebuild our country is a life defender.
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

Regarding Putin's yesterday's interview:
He expects a long war. Judging by his speech, his cognitive functions are not impaired and he expects to rule for many years.
My conclusion is that he feels super confident. He has a strategy. And he believes that Ukraine and its allies have no strategy.
Putin realizes that there is a war of attrition. And he's ready for it.
Putin is sure he is beyond punishment: occupied Crimea, shot down Boeing MH17, war crimes in Ukraine, Bucha, Mariupol, murdered Nemtsov and Navalny, and so much more. But Putin continues to be dialogued with, interviewed. He has allies, trade with Russia continues.
All this tells the criminal that he can move on. That none of the democratic countries can or will really stand up to him - a dictator with nuclear weapons.
Russian bombs are exploding in Ukrainian cities, in the center of Europe. In the city of millions, Kharkiv, children study in underground schools. The world has accepted this as something routine. The war in Ukraine has moved to the background, although it is very close and the price of a quiet life in Europe is paid by Ukrainian soldiers.
I feel very uncertain about the future of not just my country, but the world as a whole.
The Armed Forces of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people who support the AFU are the only real force holding back this monster and mad Russia.
