En Ukraine, avec les derniers facteurs et factrices avant le front Dans les zones exposées aux bombes russes, la poste ukrainienne, Ukrposhta, est bien plus qu’un service de courrier. Ses agents distribuent les retraites, font office de petite épicerie... Reportage de @justinebrabant.bsky.social

Small reminder: Ukrainians are not fighting "for Zelenskyy" — they are fighting for freedom & dignity. Since 2014, they've been fighting a war on two fronts: against Russia's genocidal killers & their own corrupt officials. Successful raids by 🇺🇦 anti-corruption fighters are not a sign of weakness...

⚡️ Update: 2 killed, 27 injured in 'serious' Russian missile, drone attack on Kyiv. At least 17 of the injured victims have been hospitalized following the attack, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko wrote on Telegram.

A missile struck just meters from a car in Kyiv this morning, caught on video. Russia continues its campaign of terror against civilians, targeting homes, infrastructure, and everyday life.

Donc en une semaine la France Insoumise, s'abstient d'une résolution au PE condamnant l'occupation du Sahara occidental, la faisant de facto échouer à 1 vote, s'abstient d'une résolution affirmant le soutien à l'Ukraine et condamnant le plan Russo-Américain avec le RN

‼️🇺🇦 URGENT : YERMAK DÉMISSIONNE ! Le proche et scandaleux bras droit de Zelensky vient d’annoncer sa démission. Zelensky a annoncé un renouvellement TOTAL du cabinet présidentiel. C’est la plus grosse nouvelle de politique intérieure depuis 2022. ENFIN 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Pour les frenchie Yermak, c'est un peu l'équivalent d'Alexis Kholer pendant le premier quinquennat de Macron, l'éminence grise, second personnage de l'état non élu, son limogeage est réclamé de puis longtemps par la société, son appartement a été perquisitionné hier par l'agence anti corruption NABU

Bye bye lord Varys

Witkoff is not buying the Russian narrative. He is selling it.

Russia carried out a massive overnight strike on Kyiv and the region, damaging homes and civilian infrastructure. Six people were killed and 13 injured. Strikes also hit Odesa, Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Chernihiv, and Cherkasy regions. In total, russia used 22 missiles and more than 460 drones.

Moldova, whose drone could it be? Apparently unidentified, like all the drones all over Europe…

Keep in mind that these talks now in Geneva do not include russia and therefore are quite meaningless. The moment something reasonable emerges out of them, Ru will cry out that it opposes it vehemently. They've been largely silent the past few days for a reason.

Y a trop de gens qui vivent dans un monde parallèle où en fait quelqu'un a mis un flingue sur la tempe de Poutine pour qu'il envahisse l'Ukraine, que la Russie ne menace pas tout ses voisins d'invasion et de bombardements nucléaires tout les 4 matins et que si la Russie déporte des enfants -

In twitter jail 💅

Once more, Russia struck Ukrainian civilians with missiles & drones overnight. The death toll keeps increasing in the Western city of Ternopil. Up until recently, western Ukraine was relatively safe in comparison with frontline regions? It is no longer the case. www.france24.com/en/europe/20...

⚡️5 civilians killed in Russian aerial attack on Kostiantynivka in Donetsk Oblast. The victims included two women, aged 62 and 65, and three men, aged 65, 67, and 74. All were reportedly on the street at the time of the strike.

In Moldova, authorities estimate the Kremlin will spend €100m — €31 per registered voter — to influence the outcome. In the Czech Republic, Kremlin-linked outlets are pumping out more content each day than the country’s major news outlets combined.

The thing about all the people who freaked out about targeting "nuclear capable" aircraft as some kind of massive escalation is that these are the same aircraft that launch cruise missiles at Ukranian cities so be honest with everyone about what you actually want

🇬🇪 May 17, 2013 On the Int’l Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia, a small group of peaceful protesters was violently attacked by a mob. This mob was orchestrated by Orthodox priests, and GD’s police stood by, failing to intervene. It was a harrowing foreshadowing of things to come.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

In Pavlohrad yesterday, Russian strikes killed 3 people and also destroyed a base of medical battalion Hospitaliers, inflicted heavy damage on their equipment. Their medics have already saved thousands of lives, and Hospitaliers also provide first aid & casualty care training to civilians.

- sir, we have the son of a CIA top operative in one of our units, should we use him as blackmail? Perhaps a diplomatic leverage? Propaganda? - ….. - ….. - meat wave

look, I understand the need to write like this about your kid, but when the reality is 'our dumbass tankie son joined the Russian army and got killed serving fascist invaders' maybe you should be a little more circumspect

One thing i cannot wait for as an outsider ( and it's a bit sadistic i confess ) is the global meltdown that will happen in the US when the actual effects of the tarifs will kick in, because yes supply chain are complex and the effect will take another 3/4 weeks to come

These are the friends of a 17-year-old boy waiting while rescuers look for him under the rubble of apartment building in Kyiv, Ukraine, that Russia hit with ballistic missile this night. In a while, rescuers would find his body. Thursday.

In the aftermath of Russia’s missile strikes on Kyiv, dozens of high school students gathered outside a destroyed building where one of their classmates had lived, in an all day vigil—waiting, praying for news. As rescuers found his body, a newscaster reporting the scene couldn’t hold back tears.
