Geopolitics in milimetres. Just received a card from Russia with an unmistakable claim on a #postalstamp. Depicted is the Kyz-Aul Lighthouse, a peninsula on the peninsula Crimea. #postalwars

The photo of #AlanKurdi, by Nilüfer Demir, went viral 10 years ago today, with #KiyiyaVuranInsanlik (humanity washed ashore). It's a reminder of the dangers people face when trying to reach safety, crossing the borders of the European Union. Art by sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik.
