🇺🇦🙏 Soldier, who was evacuated by drone for the first time in history, spent 491 days in a row at the position, - Suspilne.
▪️Konstiantyn Vlasenko held a position in a concrete drainage pipe. After the death of his comrade, he was left alone. Due to severe injuries from the discharges and gangrene, he amputated his own leg with a knife, the other rotted away on its own. Evacuation by land was impossible due to constant shelling.
▪️The Russians demanded that he surrender through loudspeakers, but the soldier refused to be taken prisoner and remained at the position. For months, Ukrainian UAVs dropped medicine, food and water to him. Now the defender is safe and recovering under the supervision of doctors.

Yesterday, we all saw the video of Kostiantyn Vlasenko, a Ukrainian Defender from the 30th Brigade, being evacuated by drone from a position on the left bank of the Oskil River in the Kupiansk sector, Kharkiv region.
I was deeply impacted by the video and his interview.
After being seriously wounded in February, Kostiantyn lost one leg. Several months later, when gangrene set in, he had to amputate his other leg himself. Throughout all of this, he continued to hold the position alone.
Several attempts to evacuate him by land had failed, so different units of Ukraine's Defense Forces came together to rescue Kostiantyn.
I'm speechless.
Yet another historic first has taken place in Ukraine.
The most important part is that the rescue mission saved the Defender's life.
"A historic event has taken place - an evacuation from the front line using a flying drone." - Napalm, a squad leader and programmer with the Unmanned Ground Systems Company of the 92nd Assault Brigade.
An infantryman from the 30th Separate Mechanized Brigade was wounded while holding his position. Due to intense Russian drone activity and mined terrain, evacuating him using conventional unmanned ground vehicles was impossible.
That’s when specialists from 92nd Assault Brigade UGS Company took responsibility for doing something that had never been done before: evacuating a service member using an aerial drone. The aircraft was a heavy-lift hexacopter manufactured by Ukrainian company Gurzuf Defence, which provided it free of charge.
The drone was piloted by an operator from the 30th Separate Mechanized Brigade. The operation was a success - the wounded Defender was rescued!
(Note how evacuation by ground drones has already become "conventional". This war is changing the future of warfare)

Health messages on cigarette packets have worked. We should do the same with betting shops. A third of the frontage should have a big yellow on black sign saying "We're still in business because you keep on losing. You're all losers."
“Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven’t been doing much,” US President Donald Trump said.
Just a couple of hours ago Russia killed one-year-old Angelina in her stroller in a park in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region. Her mother later died in hospital. An 11-year-old girl was also killed.

Evri driver just told me, at the door, he couldn't deliver a package.
A package which was on the van, behind him.
With my address on, which he was at.
That he arrived at, by following the package address.
Because his system, said this was the wrong address for the package...

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.

BREAKING: Ukraine has carried out the world’s first medical evacuation of a human via a drone from the battlefield the 30th mechanised brigade of Ukraine managed to save their injured comrade from a minefield.
Just absolutely insane.

⛑️‼️BREAKING: Ukraine has carried out the first frontline CASEVAC mission using a heavy-lift aerial drone.
A wounded soldier of the 30th Mechanized Brigade was trapped at his position, with Russian drone activity and minefields making ground evacuation impossible. It was effectively a choice between attempting a highly dangerous and untested aerial evacuation or leaving the wounded with no viable way to rescue him.
A Ukrainian-made Gurzuf Defence heavy hexacopter, specially modified for casualty evacuation, successfully airlifted him to safety.
The operation was conducted through cooperation between Ukraine’s 92nd Assault Brigade, 30th and 14th Mechanized Brigades, 10th Army Corps.
The soldier is now recovering from his injuries.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is remarkable for the fact that you will always find more problems with it every time you watch it.
It destroyed the biggest franchise the world has ever known.
It absolutely earns it's place in the hall of shame as, one of the worst movies ever made.

A Ukrainian soldier known as Borets rode a bicycle through the empty streets toward the enemy, carrying whatever weapons he could manage.
He reportedly fell in battle in September 2026. The photograph of his ride now belongs to the history of Ukraine’s resistance, and it holds a hard truth for every free society: When the gate is threatened, freedom survives only because someone chooses to stand there.

Obviously what McClean said is moronic and out of order, but it’s also hilarious as I cannot think of an athlete who would benefit more from seeing a mental health professional.
