Dear followers, today I'm asking for help for my parents in Kharkiv. This winter has been especially hard there: cold, outages, constant uncertainty. And it's more than they can realistically carry right now.

A technical failure simultaneously cut the Romania-Moldova and western-central Ukraine power lines at 10:42 local time, triggering cascading blackouts, Ukraine's Energy Minister says. Nuclear plants reduced output. Emergency schedules in effect. Restoration underway.

Everyone should see this right now. A baby being pulled out of a passenger train in πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦Ukraine. Civilians purposefully targeted by russian Shahed drones. This is sick. A friend of mine on the train just sent me this harrowing footage.

While Ukraine was trying to bring about peace in coordination with our US and European allies, Russia was attacking Kharkiv last night.

Russia killed four people and injured at least 13 more, including two children.

Three residential buildings and an infrastructure object were set on fire.

Russia attacked #Kharkiv last night. 32 people injured, two of them children.

Supermarkets, vehicles, other infrastructure damaged.
Russia continues making Kharkiv's life pure hell under the pretext of "liberation" or whatever their excuse for terror is.

The previous 50-day deadline hasn’t even passed yet, and Trump has already set a new one for Russia β€” 10 to 12 days. The reality is, Putin doesn’t care whether it’s 10 or 50 days β€” he will continue his terror in Ukraine regardless.

There’s no reason to wait 50, 12, or even 10 days. All it leads to is more bombings and a more emboldened putin because he keeps getting away with unimaginable crimes.

Czech skeptics who thought the war was a media conspiracy have been brought to Kharkiv.

A documentary film project, initiated by director Robin Kvapil, brought three Czech individuals to Kharkiv, Ukraine, who had previously believed the war was merely a media fabrication.
