A horrific Russian strike in the Kharkiv region. A “shahed” struck people directly – in a park near an ordinary café. Pure atrocity. Six people were killed, including children. A little girl was killed in a stroller – her name was Angelina, she was just over a year old, born in August 2025… Her mother’s name was Inna. She died in the hospital… Another girl who was killed was 11 years old. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Another 14 people were injured, including six more children. I am grateful to everyone who supports Ukraine under these circumstances and helps us shoot down “shaheds,” shoot down missiles, and stop Russian assaults. These are horrific photos, but behind them are shattered lives and the truth about this war. Lives must be protected. Ukraine needs air defense. You can't think about making money with Russia as long as it continues its asinine war. We ask that sanctions on Russia stay in place as long as the killings continue. We ask America to be strong, and we ask it to apply the Lindsey Graham law. We ask Europe to continue its support. We ask that everything possible be done to bring peace and guarantee security. Ukraine wants peace. It is Russia that has insisted on continuing the killing all this time. The world has enough strength to stop the war. That strength must finally be used – against the murderers.

Babyn Yar. 85 years since the tragedy. One of the largest Nazi mass-murder sites in Europe. A place of profound pain and of our remembrance of all victims of the Holocaust. On September 29–30, 1941 alone, nearly 34,000 Jews were murdered here. At Babyn Yar, the Nazis also killed Roma, Ukrainian nationalists, members of the underground resistance, prisoners of war and patients of a psychiatric hospital. In total, an estimated 100,000 innocent people were killed here during the occupation. This tragedy reminds us how important it is to stand up to evil and to regimes that place no value on human life. It reminds us why we must never turn a blind eye to terror and atrocities, and why we must always support the true defenders of life. Today, I honored the memory of those killed in the Nazi mass shootings. Eternal memory to all the innocent victims.
