The only future for Russia is decolonisation and collective responsibility. Read this thread. If it makes you feel defensive or wanting to say not all, take a minute to think why.

"To have a gathering like this that cares, that wants to talk about the problems, the issues, means a lot." More than 250 refugees have come together to attend the Global #RefugeeForum. They join world leaders, organizations and experts to pledge action for and #WithRefugees.

Last month I ordered a parcel from Ukraine and Aus post had Kyiv spelled in a russian way. I tagged them as language has always been a tool of colonialism so it matters how we use it. I ordered another parcel & today have seen that @auspost corrected the spelling! thank you!🇺🇦

In Kabul, Hazara women display incredible courage, challenging Taliban restrictions to mark Ashura 2023. Undeterred by the ban on processions, they defiantly held a rally, stand strong in their determination — in the face of Taliban opposition & violence.

russian opposition leader navalny standing up for a russian war criminal girkin who is upset that russia doesn’t genocide Ukrainians well enough is your daily reminder that Ukraine’s army is the only real opposition to putin.

The head of the 🇧🇾 Red Cross, Dzmitry Shevtsov, confirmed that his organization was involved in the illegal deportation of children from the territory of 🇺🇦. "The 🇧🇾 Red Cross has been actively involved in this and will continue to be," Shevtsov said.

I call on the International Criminal Court to issue an arrest warrant for Dzmitry Shautsou, who has publicly confessed to the crime of unlawful deportation of children from occupied areas of Ukraine. All those responsible for stealing Ukrainian children must be held to account.

Last night 🇷🇺missile strike destroyed 60 thousand tons of grain in the 🇺🇦port of Chornomorsk, Odesa region. Has been destroyed crucial grain export infrastructure; repairs might take over a year. Harvesting in 🇺🇦art: Serebriakova, Orlovsky, Pymonenko, Malevych

The whole of Kherson is Ukraine.

74 years ago, over only one day, the Stalinist regime deported more than 34,000 people from Moldova to Siberia and Kazakhstan. A third of those people were children. This was one of three waves displacing about 80,000 Moldovans during the Soviet era

Lviv. How can this terrorism be forgotten and forgiven if russians don't even feel sorry & keep wishing to exterminate us? Who would talk peace with someone who terrorizes them every day and night with no break? The death toll of the attack rose to six. Photo: @360RuWarInUa

One of the reasons why I don't accept any discussions about “good russians”, “peaceful agreement” and “anticapitalist putin”. Attack on #Lviv Why we can't stop terrorism when we have to?

A gift from Russia to those who insisted that Russian sports people are blameless victims of circumstances and should be given the opportunity to participate in sports. Russia and Russian sportspeople pretended to be of Syrian citizenship at the Pan Arab Games. They were given different names and their dates of birth were changed. These ones' real names are Karina Poludkina, Anastasia Sorokina, and Tatiana Malkova. There's a dozen of others similarly debased individuals. Russia is a rogue mafia state that is not stopped by any considerations of international law or basic propriety, nor did Russian sportpeople refuse this kind of action. That shows you the overall level of thinking that allowed for the tens of thousands of only recorded war crimes during the Russian war against Ukraine. Law is nothing to this state. Russia should NOT be allowed to participate in any international sports competition.

This is a translated poem by a contemporary Ukrainian poet Victoria Amelina who was killed by Russian missile several days ago. I want to say that russia is killing our best, but every killed Ukrainian was such. Yet still a piece of the future, Victoria, was taken.

Now we have information from our intelligence that the Russian military has placed objects resembling explosives on the roof of several power units of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Perhaps to simulate an attack on the plant. Perhaps they have some other scenario. But in any case, the world sees – can't but see – that the only source of danger to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is Russia and no one else. Unfortunately, there was no timely and large-scale response to the terrorist attack on the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant. And this may incite the Kremlin to commit new evil. It is the responsibility of everyone in the world to stop it, no one can stand aside, as radiation affects everyone.

Russia destroyed at least 598 libraries in Ukraine. Again. Five hundred ninety eight. Data is from Ministry of Culture of Ukraine. I wonder if Russian intellectuals would love finally to dwell upon facts like this one in their op-eds.

The only source of danger to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant is Russia and no one else. Let's be crystal clear here.

I took a month of work to fully focus on finishing my PhD. Still one more chose to write and put everything else together. But how one can focus when all the Ukrainian news say that Russians may blow up Zaporizhyya nuclear plant today. The world is better without russia.

Any #Endnote users? Which reference type do you use for UN conventions - Legal Rule, Statute or Government Document?

Ukrainians are robbed of everything. Peace, safety, stability, health, psychological & emotional well-being, land, economy, arts, culture, their intellectuals, their builders, their brilliant, their talented, their fighters, their patriots. What are Russians robbed of? NOTHING.

@auspost Thank you!

@TNDixson Hey Tina, just wanted to let you know that I'm having this looked into. Thanks so much for bringing it to our attention - Nathan

I’ve been getting deliveries from Ukraine easy even during the war. Today my parcel is being processed through Kyiv. It’s disappointing to see @auspost use the wrong city name. Can you please fix your system and write Kyiv as it should be and not colonised Kiev.
