❗️Soldiers of the 🇷🇺112th Missile Brigade of the Russian Armed Forces film the moments of the attacks of the "🇺🇦Lyutyy" kamikaze drones on their barracks in Shuya, Ivanovo Region

❗️A bearing factory is on fire in 🇷🇺Kursk. According to Russians, an explosion was heard before.

This may be the greatest ever chart in the history of public opinion studies.

🔥🤩🦅 Shuya, double UAVs strike on 112th Missile Brigade location!

Unidentified drones hit the 112th Guards Missile Brigade in Shuya, Ivanovo region. Armed with Iskander missile systems, the brigade may have launched an attack on Sumy on Palm Sunday. Russian media reports streets blocked by military vehicles, urging locals to stay indoors.

Kyiv bids farewell to 20yo Lithuanian volunteer Tomas Valentėlis, who fell in action defending us from the russian horde. Thank you for protecting our freedom, dear young and bright soul. 📷 Hromadske.

⚡️Ukrainian film 'Militantropos' to premiere at Cannes Film Festival. The Ukrainian documentary Militantropos has been selected for the "Directors' Fortnight" program at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, festival organizers announced on April 15.

I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

"We can react by seeing all of this for what it is, and naming it by name: incipient state terror. We can react by associating ourselves with others who are repressed before we are. Only in solidarity do we affirm law."

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in. The attempts were 'near real-time'... "Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts..." www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...

"Trump administration officials [..] believe that, with enough pressure, Ukraine can be made to submit to any terms. But if they think so, they underestimate and misunderstand Ukraine" @oxanashevel.bsky.social and I wrote last month: www.justsecurity.org/109084/putin...

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

❗️🇰🇵North Korea has transferred up to 5.8 million rounds of ammunition to 🇷🇺Russia, Reuters and OSC reported. From August 2023 to March 2025, four Russian ships made at least 64 trips from the North Korean port of Rajin. Up to 15,000 containers of ammunition were delivered.

Double tap a civilian downtown on Palm Sunday. There's no bottom of that low how Russia low can go! Disgusting, inhumane and coward.

Kursk 🔥

A double tap by mistake, as one occasionally does

Trump defended Russia’s Palm Sunday attack on civilians in Europe. Trump is a Russian asset. The United States under his regime is no longer an ally to democracies or a trade partner to advanced economies. Ukraine is the leader of the Free World.

❗️After Zelensky’s interview with CBS’s “60 Minutes” aired, what did Trump do? He sharply criticized the channel on his social media and threatened to revoke its license. Note: that day, the channel aired only one story related to Ukraine, and that was an interview with Zelensky.

This is Kiril Illiashenko. He saved many lives today. 13 year old Kirill was on a bus today with his mom Maryna. After the Russian missile strike, the bus caught fire. The explosion blocked the bus doors. Many people were killed and injured on the spot⤵️

🤬 Cars on fire on the road in Odesa after the attack by "Shaheds"

The way to end the war is not to feed fascist Russia’s imperialistic appetite with democratic Ukraine’s territory, but to starve the Kremlin of energy revenues - collapsing its petro-economy and forcing it to withdraw from Ukraine, sue for peace, and start paying reparations.

😔 The Russians in Sumy took the lives of the entire Martynenko family - the boy Maksym, who was in the 6th grade, died with his parents.

Olena Kohut, band player of Sumy National Theater, was killed by the Russian missile today. Deepest condolences to everyone who loved Olena.

Watch for who does not hold Russia responsible for the terrorist attack on Sumy. There you will find the Russian assets. Pay particular attention to Trump and what he does not say.
