#ChytomoPicks: Writing under fire: Five must-read Ukrainian non-fiction books already available in French. 1) “Freedom or Death” / “La liberté ou la mort” by Arsène Sabanieiev – Editions Robert Laffont, 2024 (originally written in French)

It’s getting cold in Ukraine 🥶 so we are building Hachiko shelters for homeless pets in frontline areas. Purina is sponsoring the first 30, along with 200 carriers we can give families for evacuations. If you want to help build more shelters, donate at hachikofoundation.org 🙏

Now I have to tell you how snipers are fighting now, what are the problematic moments and what we are trying to do to maximize the effectiveness of our sniper groups. The most important problem is drones. Another in depth blog update from Yuri 👇 yuri-chornomorets.blogspot.com/2025/11/what...

‼️ The mega-fundraising is over, let the new mega-fundraising flourish!!! ✔️ We bought 30 canisters of super gunpowder for 20,600 UAH each, a total of 618,000 UAH ⬇️. 1/5

There are many questions to me about the situation at the front, what problems our snipers have and how we can help. The first main problem is Rubicon. Read Yuri Chornomorets latest in depth blog update 👇 yuri-chornomorets.blogspot.com/2025/11/what...

For centuries, Russians did everything to silence 🇺🇦 voices, and they continue doing it today, not only physically, but also on a cultural level. Just look at how many books, movies, etc., about or by Russians receive attention and awards. It never stops. Please support and amplify Ukrainian culture!

If anyone is interested in sponsoring 30,000 primers for drone drops the total cost is about $3,200. This will allow efficient work on the advancing orcs! DM @y-chornomorets.bsky.social to discuss! Lots of other sponsorship options available starting at $143 for a box of 250 shotgun cartridges.
