⚡️ Ukraine now has more air defenses, but Russia has even more missiles for future attacks, Zelensky says. "(Ukraine) needs more missiles, more air defense," Volodymyr Zelensky said, adding that aside from Patriot PAC-3 missiles used against Russian ballistic missiles, "nothing else works."

This is a crime against humanity. Since October, russians have conducted 256 attacks on Ukraine's energy grid and heating system. The terrorists targeted 11 hydro power plants, 45 largest combined heating and power stations, 49 thermal power plants, and 151 substations.

Desperate plea from Russian prison: Ukrainian political prisoners need to be freed now, not after ‘peace deal’ khpg.org/en/1608815415

Canadian PM Mark Carney announced plans to expand joint arms production with Ukraine, saying progress is already underway. Canada will also boost cyber, logistics and intel support, expand training efforts, and is weighing the possible presence of Canadian troops on Ukrainian soil.

Zelenskyy: 'Diplomacy and real assistance should go hand in hand. Russia continues to launch attacks on our country, and now we need to strengthen our air defense to protect our people, our communities, and critical infrastructure. Every supply of missiles for air defense saves

‼️ Zelenskyy appoints Intelligence Chief Budanov as head of President's Office

Horrifying photos from Kharkiv, where russian missiles have just wiped out a residential building. At least 13 people were injured. I am afraid the figures will be worse. Please don't look away. This is not normal. russian terrorism is not normal.

A disappointing CBC The National segment on the Russo-Ukrainian war which talked about « tensions », peddled the delusional framing that a settlement is within reach, quoted Ze out of context to suggest the main difficulty is Ukraine’s refusal to cede Donbas, bothsided Ze-Pu NYE addresses…

And a new year has begun. May it bring a just peace, health and happiness to all

Russia’s claim that Ukraine recently targeted key government sites in Russia is a deliberate distraction. Moscow aims to derail real progress towards peace by Ukraine and its Western partners. (1/2)

⚡️Update: US ambassador to NATO casts doubt on alleged Ukrainian attack on Putin's residence. U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker cast doubt on Russian President Vladimir Putin's accusation on Dec. 29 that Kyiv had tried to attack his residence in northern Russia.

Big sign of decreasing economic activity. Could also be a sign of a move back to the black - cash only - economy which will hurt tax collection.

The negotiations charade is making people lose track of the real story of the Ru-Ukraine war. Ru refuses a ceasefire. Pu insists he wants to achieve ALL his goals. Ru wants "peace through Ukrainian surrender". Any discussion of Donbas, Zaporizhzhia power plant, security guarantees is a distraction.

‼️ Zelenskyy on alleged attack on Putin's residence: Russia is looking for pretexts to strike government buildings in Kyiv
