I am surprised that so many people are surprised now. 🧐The world is crazy and anything unexpected can happen. One needs to be prepared for different scenarios and continue working. Or maybe I am not surprised because I am Ukrainian. 💙💛

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President Zelenskyy. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

The idiocalypse if you will 🧟

On the night of February 27, 2025, russia launched 166 Shahed-type UAVs and imitator drones from multiple directions. Ukrainian forces repelled the attack, downing 90 drones across 10 regions. 72 drone-simulators were lost without harm. Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Sumy regions suffered damage.

Ten years ago today the Russian opposition politician & fierce Kremlin critic Boris Nemtsov was shot dead on a bridge opposite Red Square.

Tomorrow will mark three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine. A day that will forever live in infamy. Today we’re hoisting the Ukrainian flag at our headquarters. It is flying high and proud at the heart of Europe. Where it belongs.

The country falls asleep, the russian mafia wakes up: a barrage of drones is coming again to kill and destroy. Preparing for the sleepless night of loud explosions and air defence work. #makerussiapay

And my article on #EU-Ukraine-Russia interactions during the #annexation of #Crimea is also here. Have a look, if you want to remind yourself how #Russian #aggression against #Ukraine was starting.

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.

Well this couldn’t be a more clear message. The art of war [communication]

these webb/hubble images are truly incredible. the fact that we can see the universe in different wavelengths of light and spot so many unseen details is mind-blowing 🌌

Mindset reset: Right now, brave Ukrainians are defending their land & loved ones, at the cost of their sanity, limbs & lives. It’s an existential fight for their democracy & way of life. If the Russians lose, they go home. If the Ukrainians lose, they will be overrun & destroyed. #SlavaUkraini 🇺🇦

I have created my personal web-site. You can find all important information about me here. alinanychyk.com

⚡️ 1 killed, 24 injured in Russian attacks across Ukraine over past day. Russia launched 77 Shahed-type attack and decoy drones overnight, the Air Force reported.

Berlin-based PR agency Lure released a promo campaign for the russian media Meduza, using the photos of Ukrainian war victims to raise funds for those poor exiled russians. What a complete lack of empathy & respect for Ukrainians suffering from *ongoing* genocidal aggression. Shame on Lure & Meduza.
