🇺🇦🙏 Residents of Oleshky are forced to eat grass and say they will die of hunger and cold if they are not liberated before winter, — Sky News 💬If we are not liberated before winter, it will be so terrible here, people will die from frost and hunger, because not everyone has the opportunity to leave.
How do we call those who hold hostages? We call them terrorists! Oh I forgot, since they have a nuke, they are dear friends, not terrorists anymore.
❓Steve Witkoff called Putin a humanitarian. Do you agree with that? 🇺🇸 JD Vance: I agree with Steve Witkoff saying something nice to a person who just released an American hostage.

I bet he will say again that it was neither him nor Elon.
Breaking news: The Trump administration has not approved the transfer of interceptor missiles to Ukraine that are needed to protect the country from Russian attacks, officials said, a delay that comes as President Trump has embraced Russia in recent weeks.
I have no words for the atrocities committed by the russians. There should be a tribunal for everyone responsible for the deaths of children in Ukraine. From those who ordered down to those who executed these crimes.
🇺🇦Zelensky: A terrible Russian strike in the Kharkiv region. Park near an ordinary cafe. 6 people died, including children. A girl was killed in a wheelchair. Her name was Angelina, she was a little over a year old, she was born in August 2025… Her mother’s name was Inna, she died in the hospital…

About 1,700 people remain trapped inside Russian-occupied Oleshky, according to the U.N. The testimonies of those who escaped point to a worsening humanitarian crisis as Russia neglects the residents of an area it claims, illegally, to have annexed.

Russians attacked energy again, and it seems the US has already stopped sharing intelligence with Ukraine. It's hard to believe but we are on the edge of the betrayal of our friends.
🇺🇦‼️Zelensky: Russian ballistic missile strike on Kyiv. Again without warning from partners. The main target is energy, namely CHPP-4. Unfortunately, there is hit. A residential building was also damaged, rescuers are currently extinguishing the fire. CHPP-4 is one of Kyiv's main energy facilities.

The same with the Russian war against Ukraine. If Putin sees that President Trump needs some kind of victory, he will decide what to give and what not to give. And that is the problem: Putin has come to believe that he is the one who can decide. But America is a hundred times stronger than Russia.
Russians target civilian institutions on purpose. Meanwhile POTUS has been delaying sanctions again.
As Ukraine’s defenses struggle to keep up with Russia’s technological advances, its capital is fast becoming a frontline city. Russian drones struck Kyiv, hitting a science academy and a medical center, killing at least two, authorities said.

I hate it when people claim we got a promise from NATO. It makes us look like such idiots for signing all the treaties that made it clear we didnt. It's why I am forced to post this video of Gorby confirming we didn't get one.
Matlock heard Baker assure Gorbachev: NATO wouldn't expand 'not one inch eastward.' Later, lawyers rewrote it and expansion happened anyway. Firsthand testimony on a broken promise that shaped decades of geopolitics. #NATO #ColdWar #History #Geopolitics 🔗…
