I'd like to believe this, but I'm sure there must be an error in the algorithm - multiple copies of the same paper being counted as different papers perhaps?

Amazing heroism by this Ukrainian defender!

This is very noticeable! It won't help the AfD, Rassemblement national, Reform, and other far-tight outfits.

🇺🇦👀 Zelensky: When our strikes reached Yandex data centers, there was less hate, less division, and fewer provocations on social media. Because there were fewer bots, it's pretty clear where those bots were coming from.

Speechless, but expected. Trump says he has a phone call scheduled with Putin today, on the Russian leader’s birthday. “It’s his birthday, I am sure you're going to celeberate it? I have a call set up,” Trump said. #Russia

In WWII it was found that the bombing of civilian populations only increased their determination to resist. I'd expect the result to be the same in Ukraine.

Russia's gift to Putin on his birthday. The toll from the strike on a five-story residential building in Pryluky has risen to 9 dead and 50 injured. Rescuers recovered the bodies of three children from the rubble. 27 people were hospitalized, three in serious condition, 12 were rescued. #Ukraine

Ukrainian National Guard troops rescued six cats from Russian-occupied Oleshky in an unusual drone operation. With help from locals, the cats were placed in a specially designed cage and flown more than 10 km across the Dnipro beneath a heavy bomber drone. All six made it across safely. #Ukraine

🔥👀 For fair elections! Down the king! We want freedom! In the center of Moscow, an agreed(!) rally of the Communist Party was held, which did not go according to plan. At first, the party leaders spoke there, but after that, protests began. 65 people were detained.

This is so alarming: Trump's best friend in Moscow really wants to be exporting diesel but Zelenskyy (who has no cards) won't let him!

MAKS 26 👀🇺🇦@maks23.bsky.social

🤔🇺🇸 Trump: Diesel is really hurt much more, not by the Middle East, but by what’s going on in Russia. Those diesel refineries are being knocked out at a pretty alarming rate. If that didn’t happen, we wouldn’t have a diesel problem.

Many disillusioned participants are pulling out of Russia's three-day march on Kyiv:

Footage released by Ukraine’s 3rd Army Corps shows Russian soldiers taken prisoner during Operation Vivaldi. The corps says 250 Russian troops were captured during the offensive, including members of entire units that surrendered. Some POWs said they had struggled to survive. #Ukraine

In Mari El, Russia, they apparently decided to speed up the election: two stacks of ballots were stuffed into the box at once. The video from polling station No. 343 in the village of Azanovo was published by Communist Party State Duma deputy Sergey Kazankov. .

Today marks 44 years since the Israeli-sponsored Sabra and Shatila massacre in Beirut. It is high time to suspend Israel’s membership in the UN, at the very least, and impose lawful broad sanctions against its regime of settler-colonialism, apartheid, occupation and genocide.

This would make Joseph Goebbels blush: the US is now trying to pin the blame for the rise in global oil prices on Ukraine!

US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent: "We are going through an energy shock right now due to both the war in Ukraine, because Ukraine has decided that they want to blow up Russian energy assets and refine products, so that is creating upward price pressure
