Kropyvnytskyi, last night. Russia unleashed 25 drones—the largest attack on the city since the war began. Homes & railway infrastructure on fire, ten people wounded, including a child. This is what the Kremlin’s word is worth.

CIVIC in #Ukraine acts as a convener of different parties and stakeholders to achieve civilian protection. As we conclude the annual International Conference on the Protection of Civilians in Ukraine, our Country Director, @GrifAlexander, reminds us of a crucial truth: civilians are agents of their own protection—we are only here to support them in achieving it. #Ukraine #ProtectionOfCivilians #Resilience

In Amsterdam this morning for the @WarStudiesNLDA “Diversification or Civilian agency in Armed Conflict” conference. Very powerful presentation from @CivCenter Ukraine Country Director @GrifAlexander on the involvement of civilians in the war in Ukraine.

This OpEd is based on a recent @CivCenter report that looks at how targeted disinformation has killed civilians trying to escape the conflict in Ukraine. Read our full report here: lnkd.in/dfjV2YjK

🇺🇦Спільно з @CforCD провели конференцію присвячену впливу дезінформації, на якій мав честь представити звіт @CivCenter про те, як у результаті повномасштабного вторгнення Росії в Україну інформація стала справжньою зброєю. Більше про наш звіт читайте тут civiliansinconflict.org/wp-content/upl…

Several more explosions now. I am watching Ukrainian air defense work over my apartment in central Kyiv. Totally surreal. People running down the street for cover in the metro and building basements. Car alarms screaming.

I’ve been comparing Russian missile strikes against Ukraine over the last few months with what is known about their doctrine and launch capacity. I’d like to share a little about recent trends below. /1
