Russia has destroyed the Kolibri rehabilitation centre for children with disabilities in Ukraine’s Poltava region.
A direct hit and a huge fire burned out the classrooms, the therapy rooms and the rehabilitation equipment that was unique for the region.
What kind of sick country wages war on children who are already fighting battles of their own?😭

Dieser Kuschner Tweet, der für Wellen sorgt, enthält bei näherem Hinsehen einiges, das darauf schließen lässt, dass hier wieder Nebelkerzen geworfen werden. Ler‘s break it down. 1. Die Rede ist von Gesprächen mit einigen Europäern über eine Post Ukraine Krieg 1

Russische Besatzung: Russland verantwortet den Tod einer Englischlehrerin und Mutter aus Charkiw, die auf der besetzten Krym unrechtmäßig in Einzelhaft gehalten wurde. Oleksandra Kasarowytska reiste nach Sewastopol, um ihren betagten Eltern zu helfen.

The Russians have abducted thousands of Ukrainian children from our country, and now we are witnessing something even worse—so says Zelenskyy.
Russia has already begun sending some of these children—children they stole from us, who have grown up during these years of war—into the Russian army. This is appalling and must stop.
And Europe simply stands by and watches these barbaric acts by the Russians.

🚨Here is an urgent appeal from Ukrainian journalists to their colleagues around the world. I was asked to share it, and I am more than happy to do so.
‼️Turning a blind eye to what is happening in Ukraine today opens the door to the same horrors being repeated in our own countries tomorrow.

Ukraine is making modest gains on the front lines—wiping out much of Russia’s advances this year. Unable to hold the front, Russia is pummeling Ukraine’s civilian infrastructure. Register for free to see what this means for the conflict economist.com/interactive/gr…

"They killed us." With these words Novaya Gazeta, Russia's most famous independent newspaper, announced it is closing. Six of its people were murdered under Putin.

Das russische Verteidigungsministerium verschiebt die Auszahlung der Gehälter und sonstigen Zulagen für Dezember an seine Mitarbeiter, die nicht am Krieg teilnehmen, auf Januar 2027. Dies ist das erste Mal seit 18 Jahren, dass es zu einer solchen Verschiebung kommt.

Russland ermordete heute mit einer Jet-Drohne wartende Menschen auf einem Bahnsteig in Dnipro. Kriegsverbrechen folgt auf Kriegsverbrechen. Wenn das weiter keine Konsequenzen hat, muss man sich nicht wundern, dass Putin und seine Leute die Europäer verspotten.

Gestern zerstörten russische Raketen ein Lager des Verlags KSD in Charkiw mit 300.000 Büchern. Der Verlag spricht von einem „äußerst schwierigen Tag“, aber man will trotzdem die Neuerscheinungen wie geplant am 5. 11. vorstellen - zum Teil nur noch digital.

NEW | 🇷🇺 The Russian bot campaign around France’s riots started about six weeks before the riots did. Doppelganger was already pushing French grievances from early September.

Russian disinformation operation aimed at driving a wedge between Poland and neighbouring Czechia; however, the good relations between the citizens of both countries remained unshaken. On the contrary, social media users began making fun of Russia: easternfrontier.eu/eastern-f…

Members of the Verkhovna Rada are calling on Germany to reconsider its approval of cooperation with Rosatom/Framatome. In Lingen, Germany is supporting Russia in the production of Russian-designed fuel assemblies. This approval must be revoked immediately, as it poses a security threat to Germany.
Russia has always used its state-owned corporation Rosatom as an instrument of hybrid warfare and for specific influence operations in countries that cooperate with Rosatom or its subsidiaries. It is incomprehensible that Germany would seek to further strengthen existing dependencies in the field of nuclear fuel elements by relying on an instrument of the terrorist state of Russia, which is waging a war of aggression in violation of international law. We should listen to our Ukrainian colleagues in the Rada. Germany must revoke the approval. Rosatom must leave Germany.

I PIANI DEL CREMLINO PER PAGARE GLI INFLUENCER ITALIANI — Oggi è uscita un’inchiesta importantissima di The Insider, basata su documenti interni russi e comunicazioni riservate che ricostruiscono chi organizza e diffonde la propaganda russa in Europa, Stati Uniti e Ucraina.
Al vertice c’è Sergey Kiriyenko, vicecapo dell’amministrazione presidenziale di Putin. Sotto di lui, funzionari del Cremlino, agenzie e società incaricate di creare notizie false, manipolare le discussioni sui social e influenzare l’opinione pubblica.
Gli obiettivi sono alimentare la sfiducia nelle istituzioni, dividere le società occidentali, screditare l’Ucraina, ridurre il sostegno militare a Kyiv e convincere gli europei che le sanzioni alla Russia danneggino soprattutto loro.
C’è anche l’Italia.
Dai documenti emerge un progetto per pagare influencer italiani affinché producano contenuti contro le sanzioni alla Russia. Gli influencer, però, non devono sapere chi ci sia realmente dietro. Un dipendente dell’organizzazione russa scrive:
«L’importante è che non scoprano chi l’ha commissionato. Al momento pensano che sia un partito politico italiano»
Assurdo.
Chi sono questi influencer?
(Nell’inchiesta c’è davvero molto altro, consiglio di leggerla tutta. Comunque tornerò ad approfondire altri punti nei prossimi giorni)
