It seems we may get Tomahawks. On the receiving end.

Ok. Is he that stupid, or that cynical, or both?

This new US “peace” plan shows that Trump is blowing not just Bubba.

Firstly, this is beautiful—footage by the Ukrainian Air Force.

On November 1, 1918, the Ukrainian uprising in Lviv started, leading to the creation of the West Ukrainian People's Republic.

The aims of the Special Military Operation are almost achieved.

🔴 Ordinary Russian people aimed a drone at the kindergarten in Kharkiv. 🔴 The building’s second floor has collapsed. 🔴 Luckily, 48 (forty-eight) small children were fast enough to run to the basement “bomb-shelter” just before the strike.

—Are you selling Tomahawks? —No, I'm just showing them off. —Gorgeous.

Scholarly stuff

Shrinking, bloody jerks?

Do they get their Horst Wessel?

To whom it may concern

Росіяни - це нація-сарана.

The Ukrainian Postal Service usually delivers pensions to rural areas. Today, Russian forces dropped a bomb on a postal vehicle in the village of Yarova in the Donetsk region, killing more than twenty locals who had come to collect their pensions.

Mr. Secretary goes to war with vodka.

Finnish President Alexander Stubb called the eastern Ukrainian cities of Kramatorsk and Slovyansk “a bastion against the Huns.” Now, his words are quoted on the building of Kramatorsk railway station.

❗️Andriy Parubiy, former chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of 🇺🇦Ukraine, was killed in Lviv. An unknown person shot him 8 times

Ukraine is celebrating its 34th Independence Day on Aug. 24, 2025. To mark the occasion, we’ve asked the staff of the Kyiv Independent to share their favourite fact about Ukrainian history, culture, or a famous Ukrainian — some of whom, you might be surprised to learn are from Ukraine.

Day of the National Flag of Ukraine This is a flag from the armored west of a Ukrainian soldier, KIA near Debaltseve in 2015.

Here is the essence of Russia explained in one tweet of the Ukrainian officer

Best for today

The evening of vomitable pics and footage is open…

Tonight Russians destroyed yet another ‘NATO base’ in Odesa.

Interesting fact, a Nissan Leaf produces a sound nearly identical to that of a Russian Kalibr cruise missile flying nearby.

Today, our integrated crop & cargo war risk insurance paper with @isenbergumass.bsky.social PhD student @ismaelpour.bsky.social & Prof @kormych.bsky.social of Ukraine was published as the lead article in the IFORS journal ITOR in the Jan 2026 first issue onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... #orms

Tiny reminder of what the Russo-Ukrainian War is all about. RIA News ‘There is no other option: no one should remain alive in Ukraine’ ria.ru/amp/20250730...

Beneath Odesa’s Primorsky Boulevard lie remains of a Greek settlement from 5th c. BC, a Genoese settlement from 13th—14th c., and a Turkish fortress from 18th c. This concludes discussions of the "Russian" city. Historically, it is a very cosmopolitan place. www.facebook.com/100010798472...

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Ukrainian authorities and citizens have surprisingly managed to act in a ZUNR manner. However, we are now quickly sliding into the UNR (Petliura) style.

Today, a drone launched by the Russians on Odesa killed a horse.

At first I thought it was a joke, but no. BRICS Rio de Janeiro Declaration condemned attacks on Russian railways near front lines.

Today is the Ukrainian Navy Day

Unlike Trump, we never leave anyone behind

Unbelievable. The Ukrainian MOD stated that the US never officially informed them about the suspension of supplies. And they are trying to get the DOD on the phone to figure it out. www.facebook.com/share/p/1Aqu...

Stories of undercover operatives who stay behind enemy lines and later fight in special ops units, through some of the war’s toughest battles, are usually found in movies or games. But this isn’t fiction. Here are key points from our interview with Artem "Skhidnyi" Karyakin 🧵:

Our paper for Ethnopolitics is now in free access 📗 ✳️ New People for the Old Empire: Russian Policy of Citizenship in the Occupied Territories of Ukraine and Beyond ✳️ doi.org/10.1080/1744...

The Russian administration obliges schools in the occupied Ukrainian territories to hold events throughout the year that promote the image of Ukraine as a nation associated with criminal terrorists, Ukrainian nationalists, and neo-Nazi organizations.
