Donated by astronaut Jannicke Mikkelsen who during the Fram2 mission witnessed Russian rocket attacks on Ukraine from orbit.

Thank you, Norway!

157 Ukrainians just came home from Russian captivity β€” the first exchange in four months, and 139 of them held since 2022.

The youngest was just 19 when captured. He's 23 now. The oldest freed defender is 63.

A West Without America The world is becoming a more troubled and dangerous place. Europe’s rift with the US must produce a new security deal for the West.

"For more than 80 years, the US was the pre-eminent ally of Europe. The end of that alliance has seemed unthinkable, but it has nevertheless arrived, and wishing that things were different will not bring the alliance back to life." I wrote for @cepa.org on a post-US West. cepa.org/article/a-we...

Omar: I instinctively tried to, like, punch him…, I was raised with three brothers who were older than me. You learn that maybe taking the first punch when somebody is bigger than you yields you better results.

‼️An unnamed senior US envoy involved in Ukraine negotiations knows very little about Ukraine, war, or politics.

He claimed Budanov was vice president, didn't know when the full-scale war started, and has made many big mistakes.

Who could this unnamed envoy be? It's a mystery.

Ukraine’s engineering troops build fortifications, assemble pontoon bridges in hours and clear enemy minefields and barriers to enable offensives.

Their work is precise and dangerous under fire. In the Pokrovsk sector engineers have even engaged in firefights and captured enemy soldiers.
