This war is a slaughter. The Russians are mostly killing defenseless civilians. By halting assistance (primarily air defense), Trump is helping to escalate this slaughter even further

How can there still be ANY restrictions for #Ukraine to use weapons @POTUS ? It’s long overdue for Ukraine to be strong enough to stand up to the bully. We have the courage, just lift the restrictions.
A man in Lviv is getting stitched up while the bodies of his family members are being taken out from the rubble. This might be one of the hardest videos I’ve watched.

The local Souvenir-Folk Dance Group in Mykolayiv published the photos of their dancer, boy Kyrylo, whose life russia claimed today by targeting the residential area. Where are the promised F-16s? Or promised Patriots, or other air defences? Ukrainian lives could have been saved.

#Kharkiv, 16:55 Le supermarché continue de brûler. Les pompiers tentent de mettre un terme au feu sur place et cherchent les morts dans les décombres. La situation est critique.
#Kharkiv, 16:30. Bombe aérienne larguée dans la ville. Plusieurs civils blessés et tués. Tout est en feu. La ville est ciblée tous les jours. Je vais chercher mon casque entre temps.

Samstagnachmittag in Charkiw. Gleitbomben fallen auf ein großes Einkaufszentrum. Russland eskaliert seinen Terror gegen die ukrainische Zivilbevölkerung. Die Ukraine erhält nicht ausreichend Unterstützung, um sich dagegen zu verteidigen. Eine hohe Opferzahl ist wahrscheinlich.

Today, Russians dropped a bomb on a hypermarket in Kharkiv. It's a Saturday. There was a huge number of people there. My friend, who lives in Kharkiv, posted this photo and wrote: "At such moments, I feel that our international partners have betrayed us." I don't understand why, when Russian planes drop bombs on peaceful cities, our international partners forbid us to use the weapons they gave us to hit military airfields in Russia. How else can we protect people? How many more civilians have to die for the international partners to change their minds?

Be it Easter or not, russian terror and killings know no breaks. Two years of indecisive aid for Ukraine led to russia now freely plotting sabotage operations at the NATO soil in Europe. If you don't want russian aggression to ever come to your home--help Ukraine's victory now

Today, we received the awaited decision on the US aid package that we long fought for. And a very significant one. Our warriors on the front lines, as well as our cities and villages suffering from Russian terror, will feel it. The U.S. House of Representatives voted on it today. I thank everyone who supported our package, this is a solution for protecting life. I personally thank Speaker Mike Johnson and all American hearts who believe, as we do in Ukraine, that Russian evil must not be winning. I am hopeful that the bill will be quite quickly passed by the United States Senate and sent to President Biden. We appreciate every sign of support for our country and its independence, people, and way of life, which Russia is attempting to bury under the rubble. America has demonstrated its leadership since the first days of this war. Exactly this type of leadership is required to maintain a rules-based international order and predictability for all nations. We will undoubtedly use American assistance to strengthen both of our nations and bring a just end to this war closer, the war that Putin must lose. I thank our entire Ukrainian team and everyone who works tirelessly to bring this outcome closer. I am grateful to all of our country's representatives, diplomats working to strengthen support for Ukraine, all civil society members, every volunteer who works for Ukraine, and all of Ukraine’s friends around the world. I thank my team. The world rallies behind Ukraine’s cause when Ukrainians rally behind independence.

Ночью Россия уничтожила областную библиотеку в Херсоне Потом эти же люди возмущаются из-за того, что в Украине ликвидируют памятники деятелям российской культуры Кретины, если ваша особая русская культура заставляет вас сжигать библиотеки - значит ваша культура не нужна

РФ выделила на дестабилизацию Молдовы десятки миллионов евро, заявил глава Службы информации и безопасности Александр Мустяцэ. Он обвинил "организованную преступную группу, возглавляемую (экс-депутатом парламента Молдовы - Ред.) Иланом Шором" в подготовке и реализации на российские деньги "диверсионного сценария" для "насильственного свержения демократического правительства" в Молдове

The UN has established facts of fatal torture by the Russians in the occupied territory An independent international commission of the United Nations has collected a lot of evidence of crimes committed by the Russian army in the de-occupied territories of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions. The commission members concluded that the use of torture was widespread and systematic. In some cases, torture was inflicted with such brutality that it caused the death of the victim. "Russian soldiers raped and committed sexual violence against women of ages ranging from 19 to 83 years" in occupied parts of Kherson province, said Erik Møse, Chair of the Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine. In August and September, Møse's commission visited parts of Ukraine formerly occupied by Russian forces such as in Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions. It found that torture was committed mainly in detention centres operated by the Russian authorities and chiefly against people accused of being Ukrainian informants.

Ukrainians recognize sounds of drones, missiles and air defense, we hear them daily. This night we had no sleep — Kyiv was under attack. Infrastructure destruction again — luckily, without casualties. Grateful to those who protects 🇺🇦 sky. We have today because of you.
