Among 86 #Ukrainian captives, released today in exchange for RU soldiers, there were 15 women. Russians shaved our beautiful women baldly specifically to humiliate them. Never you will humiliate #Ukraine. Never will you humiliate any UA woman, they are the bravest in the world

- This is Ivan Fedorov, mayor of Melitopol, which is controlled by RU troops for several days. Today he was kidnapped with plastic bag on head from crisis center, where he continued to govern the city after he denied to work with occupants. Terror continues #RussiaInvadedUkraine
- 1/ Most impressive from intercepted phone calls btw RU militaries and their wifes/moms: 1) women are excited by marauding catch, directly say to take as much as possible; 2) women hate Ukrainians, perceive them as subhumans and urge to kill and destroy. No compassion
- “Kyiv Phantom”. This is legendary UA fighter aircraft pilot, who shut down 6(!) Russian fighter planes during 30 hours. Video in thread
- Kramatorsk, UA-controlled part of Donetsk obl, 40 km to division line. People sign UA hymn and do not want “Russkiy mir” to come00:00
- Replying to @Mariia_Zolkina4/ 5) I even don’t mention, that women DO NOT believe their captive men, that those attacked civilians, and no one met them with flowers. Women refer to RU TV news, and say: “No, they say in TV, Kharkiv is ours, people greet you and feed you!”
- 26 hours since beginning of RU invasion of #Ukraine: 1)no one in the army surrendered; 2)authorities are in place; 3)thousands of ordinary Ukrainians are joining territorial defense forces; 4)no marauding in any city Glory to Ukraine! Glory to UA Army. We are proud of you!
- Kyiv stands! Heavy fights, explosions in some areas, shelling on the streets as Ukrainian army and policy are fighting and capturing dozens and dozens of RU saboteurs. Heavy fight for Vasylkiv, after sunrise UA army will be able to succeed with land operation. Glory to Ukraine!
- Replying to @Mariia_Zolkina2/ 3)Once RU soldiers are captured and call to ask relatives to make it public, to address authorities to release them, the is pure silence in response. Moms/wifes say “What can I do?”. This is the most impressive. Not to try to save your child, really?!
- ⚡️#Sievierodonetsk doesn’t exist anymore. 🇺🇦soldiers started leaving the city in organized manner. It’s not possible to hide and fight effectively there.121 days of incredible and professional defense despite quantity superiority of the enemy. What is important here?1/
- ⚡️Belarus is gonna join war against #Ukraine with its own troops on the side of Russia. Diplomatic sources confirm. Opposition 🇧🇾journalists receive from locals that 🇧🇾forces of special operation are boarding planes to be landed in north UA. We need #NoFlyZoneOverUkraine. @NATO
- Replying to @Mariia_Zolkina3/ 4) Lots of curse words. Almost any conversation btw soldiers and their women is 90% consist of curse words. Not just to call Ukrainians, but generally.
