I flew out of Kyiv on the night of 22 February 2022 with one of the last flights. The airport was completely empty except for one crowded gate from where the Turkish Airlines flight to Istanbul was leaving late in the night.
There have been no civilian airline flights for almost 5 years in Ukraine.
For westerners to cry NOW about Ukraine possibly shutting down airspace for civilian flights in Western russia is peak hypocrisy and outright evil.

Russia struck a bus carrying Ukrainian miners returning home after their shift, killing 12.
The first "Shahed" struck near the bus, causing the driver to lose control and crash into a fence. People began to climb out of the bus, and at that moment, the operator of the second "Shahed" aimed the drone directly at them.
Dear and most respected @NYPost, please kindly let your audience know about this story. Thank you.

You sound like von Ribbentropp explaining why the expansion of Nazi-Germany for new Lebensraum is a German tradition. Did you ever hear what you say and how it sounds?

Machado gave Trump her Nobel medal.
I don't think it'll help her or Venezuela. That's what Trump does: humiliates his former rivals making them believe they'll get something in return and then ditches them.
What a shameful time. Let's hope it'll pass soon.

Footage shows a Russian soldier filming African recruits in winter gear in snowy Ukraine, referring to them in Russian as “disposables,” a term often used to describe cannon fodder, as the men chant on camera.

I grew up in the Soviet Union in the ’80s you know, that workers’ paradise Lenin built.
We had endless lines for bread, no freedom to speak, and neighbors who’d sell you out for a pack of cigarettes and a bottle of vodka.
My family was considered to be fortunate my father ran a small business, yet we still couldn’t get basic things like toilet paper or school clothes. We’d stand in line for 3 hours just to smell a fucking banana because they were considered a luxury. If we actually wanted one, we had to slip some bureaucrat a bribe to buy two under the table.
Lenin didn’t achieve the impossible. He perfected state controlled misery.
Funny thing, you can post this tweet without visit from the secret police.That freedom you take for granted? It’s the exact thing Lenin abolished.
Bunch of fucking of clowns 🤡

The depravity, cruelty and barbarism of Russians in occupied areas of Ukraine can't be fully understood without seeing the guys that make instagram videos to sell apartments of Ukrainians that were either murdered of havoc fled.
Even sold with all personal items..

Have you seen this video by Rutte? Is this AI or real?
Rutte in this video: “Last night, numerous drones from russia violated Polish airspace. Our air defences were activated and successfully ensured the defence of NATO territory, as they are designed to do. Several Allies were involved alongside Poland. This included Polish F16s, Dutch F35s, Italian AWACS, NATO Multi Role Tanker Transport, and German Patriots. I commend the pilots and all who contributed to this quick and skillful response.”
Fact: Out of 19 russian drones which entered Poland only 4 were shot down

PM Netanyahu’s office says Israel will, for the first time, publicly release horror footage from the Oct. 7 massacre, filmed by Hamas in the Ta’assa family home at Netiv HaAsara. The mother, who lost her partner and son, approved its release.

It’s hard to watch these videos but it’s important for the world to see the reality in Kherson. Today, russians dropped a bomb on a civilian fixing his roof. This happens constantly - while Putin pretends to want peace. This is what russia will continue to do unless it’s stopped

Finnish President Alexander Stubb:
“For an American audience, the best way to explain it is that if you take the relative land mass of what Russia wants right now from Ukraine, it would be a little bit like you giving up Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, even Virginia, and then bumping into Maryland.”
