A video of a ukrainian young boy has gone viral on social media. He tells his mother that he has grown used to the sound of Shahed drones and is no longer afraid of them. “It’s better to listen to nature and what the trees are telling you,” the boy advises his mother.

The EU is now pushing a new narrative: Russia is disrupting global food supplies, putting millions at risk of hunger. True. But Trump is doing the same with oil and his war in Iran. Meanwhile, we’ve slashed humanitarian aid budgets, leaving us unable to buy food even when it’s available.

JD - I've got 15 free minutes before my son's hockey practice ends, so let me see how many of Trump's enrichment schemes you didn't see that I can remind you of. 1/ First one is easy: Trump has executed over 30,000 stock trades, many on inside information, netting him millions.

What Trump is doing is basically like Europe signing business deals with Al-Qaeda right after 9/11, but actually much worse, as Russia is a way bigger threat to Europe than Al-Qaeda ever was to the US

It's Day 1696 of the clear genocide in Ukraine. I have no time for genocide deniers, or those leaders who are too afraid of "rocking the boat" to say it. Russia is murdering civilians every day, trying to destroy all culture in the country it invaded in 2014 + 2022 Here's the🧵

Thank you to EU Ministers for chance to join them in Dublin. My challenges to humanitarian community and supporters … Is reform yet meeting the moment? How do we reconnect with public? And who will help reimagine humanitarianism?

🇺🇸 The #Trump administration allows other countries to buy Russian diesel → Russia uses the profits to produce more missiles and drones → Russia supplies those weapons to Iran → Iran launches them at US and allied military bases and ships. The US is financing attacks against its own forces.

We have a responsibility to uphold international law. The EU is fully committed to the independence of international justice. We urge the United States to use the coming months to engage in dialogue. We will continue support the ICC and to protect its members and staff.

The people of Saudi Arabia have no political voice. They live under an absolute monarchy that confiscated the wealth of much of the royal family by locking them in the Ritz-Carlton and ordered a journalist to be chopped into pieces. Sure, let’s stand in full solidarity with MBS.

Fighting in Ethiopia’s northern Tigray, Amhara, and Afar regions erupted on September 22 between the Ethiopian military and forces aligned with the Tigrayan People’s Liberation Front. This follows reported clashes and airstrikes in Tigray since August. Civilians must be protected.

There is no electricity, water, or gas. Shops are closed, and medicines are virtually unavailable. Roads are mined, and the Russian side refuses to authorize a humanitarian corridor. Up to 6,000 people remain in Oleshky, including 200 children, compared with a pre-war population of around 24,000.

Sloviansk. Russian forces have destroyed yet another architectural landmark – a hospital built in 1901. It survived two world wars, but not Russia's “help for Donbas.”

A 120-year-old historic building of Zaporizhzhia National University survived two world wars. It did not survive the Russians. Their drone hit the 1902–03 former women’s gymnasium on Sep 21, setting it ablaze and gutting much of the protected landmark.
