Reminder: after around 900k total casualties, russia currently occupies 19% of Ukraine. It occupied 30% three years ago, when it had less than 100k total casualties. Let’s stop pretending that russia is in a position of strength. It’s only the US that tries to put it in one
NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.
So, best we share all the footage we can here!
This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.

Morning from Kyiv,
where three people were killed
during a night drone attack;
a man and his five-year-old daughter among them 💔
Drone debris fell in several parts of the city, causing damage.
I need a strong #warcoffee.
We should do more to strengthen this relationship. I have a feeling it will become very important in the next 4 years. We should ratify the free trade agreement CETA. 18 member states have yet to ratify the treaty. Also, let's consider giving visa free travel and residency to Canadians.
On that note... now, 3 years later, isn't it incredible how the pro russian propaganda grifters like Hasan Piker or Kyle Kulinski have all successfully rebranded as "I was always pro-Ukraine". Disgusting really.
And this is from a full week before the start of maneuver operations! Russian artillery was going NUTS at that point trying to soften the Ukrainian defenses up and there were STILL fascist grifters going "duuuuhh u believe warmongering mainstream media about innocent Rushia lol"
More sham trials of unlawfully imprisoned peaceful protesters today. Judges handling this dictatorial circus must all be sanctioned. Yesterday, it was Ketevan Jachvadze.

Also in the coming year, Bulgaria is joining Schengen, which is a big W. Bulgaria didn't reach the financial goals to join the Eurozone on January 1st. But, it is highly likely to join the Euro within 2025. The designs are already made, so we'll soon be getting our first Cyrillic Euro coins
A KC-767 Aerial-Refueling Tanker and Transport Aircraft with the Italian Air Force is currently heading East over the Mediterranean, bound for Rafic Hariri International Airport in Beirut, Lebanon.
More evidence BlueSky is toxic.
This site had a higher ratio of nutjobs celebrating the CEO murder than 8CHAN. AND 4CHAN. AND TWITTER.
Y’all. Time to do some soul searching.
Criticizing democratic elected officials for actively working to undermine the party and get Trump elected is not Muslim hate.
My civil rights are directly affected by this degenerate Jew hater’s choices.
Progressivism is dying a shockingly quick death right in front of us.
The flaws we ignored are too apparent.
There are two teams. People like me who woke up from the coma and those that are too mentally weak to. They will be politically irrelevant.
Vato Bzhalava has just been kidnapped by the regime as he went out to walk his dog. The dog was found tied to a tree. Vato’s whereabouts or health condition is unknown. #terrorinGeorgia#GeorgiaProtests
I don’t think many realize just how screwed Hezbollah actually is now with the fall of the Assad Regime in Syria, the “Axis of Resistance” has well and truly collapsed; with the only Groups really still remaining being the Houthis in Yemen, PMF in Iraq, and Iran.
It's crazy how confident these people were that they would all just get away with it. And... like... these people literally posted videos in which they tortured and murdered people, and now they think a facebook apology post will get them out of it.
You think if the internet existed during WW2, Hitler would have made an apology post on facebook, like all the Assad regime goons, rather than shooting himself?
Israel wants to wipe out the remnants of the Syrian air force, from the looks of it. As well as all cruise missiles and chemical weapon sites. Turkey is helping its proxy militia advance into Kurdish controlled territory, and wants to crush the prospect of Kurdish autonomy in Syria.
The stuff coming out of Syria is nuts. Secret underground prisons are found in large tunnel complexes built under hospitals, schools, universities, parks, and even housing blocks, all across Damascus. There is an entire city of underground prisons with thousands, possible tens of thousands in them.
Two Israeli Officials have confirmed to the New York Times, that Israeli Ground Forces advanced today beyond the Demilitarized Zone on the Israel-Syria Border, for the first time since the Yom Kippur War in 1973.
The Syrian example shows that Russia can be kicked out and will go home. The Baltics were right – the West is strong enough to win. We don't need to fear "the Bear" in Ukraine or anywhere else he is causing chaos.
Btw it is confirmed now that in their chaotic retreat the russians just forgot and left russian troops stranded in bases and outposts in the Syrian Desert.
An Arms Depot at Mezzeh Air Base in the Syrian Capital of Damascus, which held Strategic Weapons of the Syrian Armed Forces, has been targeted and destroyed by an Israeli Airstrike.
The Syrians still have not accessed the worst parts of the camp. They are hidden behind secret doors that lead to a vast network of underground torture cells. They can't find the doors. Nobody knew this existed until now. Thousands of prisoners are seen waiting on security camera screens.
@derparrot.bsky.social you don't seem to get the mindset of the Middle East, and this take is very mistaken.
If Israel had done what you said, the rebels would be seen as Zionist shills and would lose any hope of controlling Syria. This was the moment to do it. Not then.
The time to bomb Assad's chemical and strategic weapons was 4 days ago, when the regime was in disarray and Israel would have had wider support for doing it. Now, Netanyahu, and by that extent his country, look like a bunch of opportunistic vultures.
Major General Ali Mahmoud, the Deputy Commander of the Syrian Army’s 4th Armoured Division and Close-Confidant of Maher al-Assad, has reportedly been found Dead inside the Library of a Guest House in the Countryside of Damascus.
