@13serhi Shakhtar rawk. I saw the owner supporting a Ukrainian athlete making a benign and necessary political statement. Solid. I need to buy me a jersey now! theguardian.com/sport/2026/feb…

One of many incidents that Russian propaganda desperately tries to hide. In March 2014 in Donetsk, Russian "tourists" mixed up the flags and tried to burn the flag of FC Shakhtar Donetsk - the most popular and beloved club across the entire Donbas region. The funny thing is they couldn't burn it. Watch the video to see their awkward attempt and hear what real Donetsk residents said about it the next day. As someone born and raised in Donbas, I never met a single person who didn’t know Shakhtar. Almost everyone in the region followed the team passionately and went absolutely crazy with joy when we won the UEFA Cup. This is exactly why Kremlin media and their local collaborators always silence this story. It completely destroys the myth that these "protests" were organized by locals. It reminds me of the April 2014 incident in Kharkiv, when Russian "tourists" confused the buildings and stormed a theater instead of the regional administration headquarters. Russian propaganda stays silent about that one too. Yet pro-Russian trolls still come to tell us - actual Donbas residents - that "it was all organized by locals", not by Russians.

I didn't know you could get camo leggings for when ballerinas want to play "army". #NAFO

In exchange for not sending Tomahawks, I promised Donald I would give up land Russia does not control in Zaporizhzhia & Kherson. In exchange, Ukraine would give Russia land we also do not control in Donbas. Donald and the art of the deal.

Alright, I guess it falls to me -- just an ordinary guy from Ukrainian Donbas -- to explain a few obvious things to a New York real-estate developer who seems to care a lot more about the “commercial opportunities” being dangled in front of him by Putin and his mob fixer Kirill Dmitriev than about Ukraine, this region, or the questions of war, life, and death for millions of people whose fate he so casually talks about. You see, real life is a bit more complicated than a primitive two-color map where Ukrainian regions are divided into “Ukrainian-speaking” and “Russian-speaking.” Believe it or not, speaking Russian in everyday life does not mean wanting to live under Russian rule and the dictatorship of Vladimir Putin. It doesn’t mean you’re somehow “by default” obliged to belong to Russia or serve the imperial whims of Vladimir Putin. Especially not after the 2014 invasion -- and especially not after the slaughter that the business partners in the Kremlin unleashed on what is now an almost completely destroyed Donbas. That horror opened countless eyes and finally shattered many illusions about what the so-called “Russian world” really is -- a plague, bringing death and cemeteries among the ruins of once-prosperous cities like Mariupol and Bakhmut. You might be surprised, but back in 2014 the main centers for forming “volunteer battalions” were not Lviv or Ternopil -- they were “Russian-speaking” cities like Dnipro and Kharkiv. They created and filled numerous famed units made up of local residents who took up arms to repel Russia’s hybrid invasion of Donbas when the regular army and the state were in collapse and paralysis. That’s because we, the “Russian-speaking” Ukrainians, already understood perfectly well what was happening -- and made our final, irreversible choice in favor of Ukraine. You might be surprised again, but when business partners in the Kremlin, through collaborators, saboteurs, and unmarked Russian regular forces, occupied Donetsk and Luhansk in 2014–2015, the majority of the region’s educated, entrepreneurial, and democratic-minded population fled those “people’s republics,” which quickly turned into depressed criminal cesspools. They left their homes and apartments and moved -- believe it or not -- to areas under Ukrainian control: to Kyiv, and to its peaceful suburbs like Irpin and Bucha (where I live), where so many of our fellow Donetsk natives started new lives from scratch. And here’s a little hint for the self-proclaimed “experts” and “journalists”: even in Donbas, pro-Russian Russian-speaking people never identified themselves as “ethnic Russians” -- only as Ukrainians who just happened to speak Russian. No matter what years of Russian war propaganda tried to claim about the “Russians in Donbas.” If you think you know better than me -- someone born in Volnovakha, who grew up and lived there most of his life -- you’re mistaken. And believe it or not, even now, in the fourth year of Russia’s full-scale slaughter in the so-called “Russian-speaking regions,” masses of Russian-speaking Ukrainians have fled and settled in Kyiv, Lviv, or Chernivtsi -- something you can easily notice just by walking through those cities. I won’t even start on how many “Russian-speaking” Ukrainians are fighting right now in the Ukrainian army on the front lines against the Russian plague that came to their land. Why is that? Because we have long been part of the Ukrainian nation -- part of its political and cultural space. Our capital is ancient Kyiv, not Moscow. We argue about and criticize Ukrainian politicians whose decisions shape our lives. We took part in the revolutions, the elections, the wars for this country. We cheer for the Ukrainian football team, for Ukrainian singers at Eurovision. Most of us, one way or another, see Ukraine as our country and our future — and today, more than ever in modern history, we are farther from Russian cultural space and closer to our fellow Ukrainians from Lviv, Lutsk, Ternopil, and Vinnytsia than ever before. That’s called shared national values. The democratic, European, and Euro-Atlantic Ukraine that is fighting for its survival and freedom against an imperial invader -- the Ukraine we’ve been trying for a decade to reform and make a better place to live -- that’s us. That’s who we are. That’s what we believe in, and what matches our values and vision of the future. And many of us from the “Russian-speaking regions” have already switched to Ukrainian in daily life and in public, returning to the embrace of Ukrainian culture and tradition -- and rejecting “Russian” with disgust and anger, because we don’t want to have anything in common with the fascist Russia of today, which brings only bloodlust, war, hatred, chauvinism, aggression, and the deceitful hypocrisy of its brainwashing television propaganda. And frankly -- until our last breath -- we will want nothing to do with your Russia. After all it has done -- killing our friends and relatives, taking our homes, and turning our “Russian-speaking cities” into vast cemeteries amid ruins where life will never return.

@jputte @iaeaorg @rafaelmgrossi I've found #IAEA statementsto be cagey about WHAT "repairs" are to happen. The recent disconnection was an opportunity for ruZZia to connect the NPP to their own grid. Has that putative effort been abandoned at this moment? Has reconnection to the UKR grid been undertaken?

@iaeaorg @rafaelmgrossi IAEA is posting a picture of a 330kV line being repaired by Ukraine on right bank (in background 35kV) which is NOT on left bank (RU occupied) and NOT the 750kV line that was sabotaged by RU on 23 sept 2025. This line was damaged by RU shelling and out since 7 May 2025.

Work has begun to repair damaged off-site power lines to ZNPP after 4-week outage, following establishment of local ceasefire zones to allow work to proceed, DG @rafaelmgrossi said. Restoration of off-site power is crucial for nuclear safety and security. Both sides engaged constructively with the IAEA to enable complex repair plan to proceed.

@RMStawychny - gimme a shout. Just got back from the Holy Hawtin Apollo operation. The squad is contemplating a 1300h to 2200h Standard Parish incursion to Geary St. What does your combat readiness look like?

@yasminalombaert The one and only fact that matters here is that President Zelenskyy refused to initiate an investigation into Joe/Hunter Biden under pressure from tRump, aka Impeachment 1. tRump will ALWAYS seek "retribution" for not backing him up on that, no matter what Ukr does.

President Zelenskyy throw a hell of a question to Trump : “I just need to know where you [the US] stand.” President Zelenskyy's seems to be under intense, unbearable pressure. “If we don't have this, nothing will work. And I know it. … I just want to understand what will be tomorrow with us, with our families. Just to understand, where you [the US]? We don't need only deals on money. We are now surviving. That’s why my first question is: “Will America stop military aid? Our not? …. Now there is no question of freezing the war. You understand, tomorrow, will not finish the war, because it’s putin.” he said. He’s laying bare a stark reality: without continued U.S. military aid, Ukraine’s ability to defend itself could collapse. The urgency in his words, tying survival not just to strategy but to the immediate fate of families, underscores how precarious he believes the situation is. It’s less a diplomatic plea and more a raw demand for clarity from the U.S. He’s pushing the U.S. to pick a side decisively, not just in words but in action. And he’s damn right!

@whambam271 @bayraktar_1love The phones were likely collected to prevent calls to authorities, not robbed, per se. Were it a part robbery they'd have collected wallets and valuables.

@bayraktar_1love Wouldn't be surprised if they where ex Wagner, the axes and hammers sounds like the Wagner MO all right. Plus ex cons stealing mobile phones ......😂 Only surprised that they didn't murder or rape anyone.

Unknown persons smashed a helicopter parts manufacturing plant in St. Petersburg. On the night of October 14, six masked men climbed onto the plant's premises on Kingiseppskoe Shosse. They were armed with axes and hammers. According to workers who were in the plant at the time, the unknown persons began to smash the machines using improvised means. One of the them ran up to the workers and forced them to give him their phones. A few minutes later, the unknown persons left. The plant's employees are currently calculating the damage. According to one version, competitors could have done it. - Russian media

@MAGApizzy @nexta_tv You joined Xitter the month of Russia's full invasion, Feb. 2022 - what a coincidence!

@nexta_tv If he wasn't snorting all the money we sent him and ya know "losing the weapons" we've sent him, he might have put this war to bed already. 🤷🏻‍♀️

“Nuclear weapons or NATO”. Zelenskyy shared the details of his conversation with Trump President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at a briefing in Brussels said that he discussed with US presidential candidate Donald Trump the issue of Ukraine's accession to NATO. According to Zelenskyy, he cited to Trump the Budapest Memorandum, under which Ukraine gave up nuclear weapons in return for security guarantees from the United States, Britain and Russia, which were supposed to protect Ukraine's territorial integrity. However, the agreements did not work out. Zelenskyy added that either nuclear weapons or NATO membership could give Ukraine security guarantees. He noted that Ukraine chose the Alliance. According to the Ukrainian president, Trump called these arguments “fair”.

I'm taking a break and apologize for being AWOL. I found a neighbour/good friend with #COPD and #CongestiveHeartFailure gasping for air and otherwise unresponsive. I did #CPR and called 9-1-1. He was in ICU but back home now. Phew! I used #NAFO Form 3-14.159 for unpaid leave.

@SimcockIain @joni_askola You believe a walled city was conquered by marching around it 7 times while blowing horns. Now you think yourself a military expert who can accuse others of believing nonsense? And what is this "evidence" you speak of?

@joni_askola This is either deliberately glossing over the evidence, or you truly believe the nonsense that you write. Either way it’s an astonishing piece of fiction.

1/17 Ukraine will achieve victory through attrition. While challenging, Ukraine can outlast russia.

@BullishonMars @joni_askola See Problems 2 and 4. kyivpost.com/post/33014

@joni_askola Ukraine doesn’t have enough people to outlast Russia.

@Unilever - is there any way you could help here? Until your new factory in Bila Tserkva begins production, are you distributing product in Ukraine? Would it be possible to give out packages with samples for those in the most need?
