"Bring back our boys [defenders]. They suffer a lot there. Just bring them back! There are still many of them there. They are struggling hard," the first words of the liberated Mariupol defender after he returned home from russian captivity. ❤️‍🩹

Because the world urgently needed another podcast, we got you covered: The Mildly Alarmed, a podcast on European security, featuring yours truly, @lapatina.bsky.social, @kaeggen.bsky.social & @frhoffmann.bsky.social is out ! In the first episode, we discuss the current state of affairs in Ukraine

And not only US farmers are in trouble. International org say that globally most of areas in the world are infected. Asia and some parts of Africa are in the most vulnerable position with fertilizer issue. Trump is playing with whole world recklessly. This level of sh*t will backfire. Badly.

“It is the most powerful missile system in the world,” Vladimir Putin said after receiving confirmation that the missile had struck its designated target at the Kura test range on the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia’s Far East.

A record-short military parade in Murmansk did not include troops from the 71st Guards Rifle Infantry Division, normally one of the most powerful military units on the Kola Peninsula

“Something rather unusual is happening right now inside Russia.” My dispatch for BBC Radio’s From Our Own Correspondent.

Russia's Baltic spoofers – a triptych Russian ship spoofers as electronic warfare art. As the actual investigation is taking a long time.

tass.ru/politika/273... Interesting. If true, russia have really hit the economical bottom.

Russians always lies.

Visit Hungary is now definitely in my bucket list. I saw someone else commenting the same in comments, and I think we are not alone. So, prepare Hungary. This might turn to unexpected tourism times.

"Allow", what a powerful statement.

In the end, Putin had to call Trump and ask him to speaks to Zelenskyy. Ukraine agrees to it but only in exchange of a prisoners swap. Russians accept it, teeth grindingly, and Zelenskyy trolls them on top.

Hear hear!

Just waiting some "now seen in arctic/asia/mars

🤔 "There is always some black sheep in the European Union. So I belong to this flock. I say this everywhere... I am against some single mandatory opinion," Fico emphasized. t.me/warriorsukra...

I except some really lame parade with some Ukrainian decoy drones. How lovely it would be. But, the ceasefire. Dang.

Or some really serious... consequences.

Is Fico talking about himself? Source: Direct contact with Roman: t.me/WarriorsUkra... Buy souvenirs: t.me/warriorsukra... Volunteer assistance report: t.me/fundraisingr... Details for donations: t.me/Roman_DONATION t.me/warriorsukra...

One of the Tu-95MS bombers was observed carrying a Kh-101 cruise missile under its wing — the same type of weapon routinely used in strikes against targets in Ukraine.

The Kremlin showed off Putin’s guest list for May 9th. Real "powerhouse" lineup, obviously.

Fell asleep in the shower – gave the Navy a bill of 650,000 kroner share.google/ekrW2Zdroa6P... Drunken US soldier made quite a bill.

This milestone is proof of Europe’s determination to turn crisis into opportunity. Strengthening Europe’s resilience. Reducing our dependency on imported fossil fuels. Building prosperity for generations to come. link.europa.eu/R8TDJg

Thank you Hungary.

I got huge Swan Lake vibes of this.

Russia really won this game.

After these claims I bet Shoigu will have tea and window with heart attack and natural cause of death with polonium filled underpants. Putler is helped to move some time after that, and will die next his golden toilet brush. But who will take the lead next? Patrushev Jr? Or some "friendly face"?

Ruzzia have been blaming Poland of all kind of things lately. Why? So we don't remember ruzzian stupidity in Ukraine anymore?

Just got this text from my Moscow mobile operator: “During preparations for & the holding of holiday events May 5-9 temporary restrictions to mobile internet & text messaging are possible in Moscow & Moscow region. This may cause difficulties with cashless payments, use of ATMs & GPS services.”

youtu.be/CYegbsQf75M?... @freeonis.bsky.social nails the latest events once again.

I wonder what % of US citizens really believe all this bulls*t from Trump?

This article is so full of internal rightfullness of forever happy USSR. Because they never did anything wrong, the external threats must have caused the breakdown. Yes yes, of course. External threat pinpointing Gold medal goes this time to Poland. My congratulations!

A 346-metre-long tanker that serves as a key hub for Russian Arctic oil exports has effectively “disappeared” from ship tracking systems

Hasn’t whined about needing a ballroom to feel safe

Hungarian oligarchs begin fleeing the country, transferring assets, in anticipation of corruption investigations giftarticle.ft.com/giftarticle/... via @FT

Since the election, support for the Hungarian opposition party, Tisza, has gone up to 66%. Orban's party, Fidesz, is at 25%. telex.hu/belfold/2026...

A ship recently suspected of being a Russian drone carrier (possibly with drone found) has broken down in the midst of the routes NATO will use to exercise logistics ops, starting Monday. Aurora26 is coined a dress rehearsal for Swedens role as a transit country if eastern front needs defending.

This is one way to decorate the situation that russia is more or less one huge concentration camp for most of its residents.

As a naval expert I would like to clarify that this is absolute bollocks, thank you for your attention to this matter

Finally!

🔥 Russian fascists should do another Z-parade in Tuapse.

There is a saying that "Russians steal everything that is not tied up". Just saying.

We can see huge peak with the amount of political cartoon posts, while word Trump is totally disappeared from the most used words lists. I think we are on the edge of something. People are fed up, globally.

Imagine if Trump eventually is the one who unite these parties to work together. That would be 🏆irony level.

Reported on Telegram: Russians are massively searching for ways to leave the country. Interest in moving abroad has doubled in three months, according to "Vedomosti". According to "Yandex Wordstat", there were 19,600 searches in January, 22,900 in February, and 40,000 in March. 1/2

www.scientificamerican.com/article/ex-n... I already valued NASA astronauts highly but now my fan levels literally rocketed. What a great shout out for decency and principals.

I think this is super fine piece of design. It wraps perfectly Canadians feelings and frustration towards today's US administration.

When you behave like unpredictable wrecking ball there are consequences.

Stalin was afraid some kind of a coup and throw away most USSR army top leaders. That caused huge loss in leadership with well known consequences. I thought only some really stupid dictator would do something similar today. Oh, wait!

True. US is now russia 2.0 and run by oligarchs and mob.
