Today marks 25 years since journalist Dzmitry Zavadski disappeared in Belarus. Once Lukashenka’s personal cameraman, he was arrested in 1997 while working with Pavel Sheremet. He is one of many victims of enforced disappearance. We won’t stop demanding justice & accountability.

At the end of the Song Festival concert, 100,000 Estonians sing the Forest Brothers’ song — the iconic anthem of resistance during the Soviet occupation. In the 1980s, singing it in public could earn you a 2–3 year prison sentence — and yet no real Estonian gathering passed

I visited #ATechSYN drones factory in the Shannon FreeZone a few weeks ago. Their drones are extremely impressive. Wouldn't it be something to have squadrons of drines watching over the Atlantic undersea cables. See for yourself a-techsyn.com

Senator G Craughwell A great company, producing products that would certainly suit some of our requirements, and if I recall correctly working with Marine nationale on a ship launched drone system, which may be of interest to the Irish Naval Service in time. We should be working with and supporting local.

Putin is making it very clear that any truce in Ukraine will come only when he is defeated. We talk, he kills Ukrainians. We talk some more, he kills more Ukrainians. He has openly said he wants to destroy Ukraine and that is his war aim. A combined Ukrainian-US-European effort

I🇺🇸had the unique joy of cherishing dear UN GA President-78 H. E. Dennis Francis🌎🌍🌏, who personified every nation’s hope embedded in the United Nations Charter during his tenure, as he worked for a more just world: with respect for every view that makes our🇺🇸1A blush with pride. Dear Dennis is

Government appoints former senior Army Ranger Wing officer to Deputy Chief of Staff post (via TheJournal.ie) jrnl.ie/6756558

What a fantastic appointment for Óglaigh na hÉireann. Congrats, Major General Ó Luasa, I'm delighted for you.

A really good meeting with DCC Bobby Singleton today along with Alan Chambers MLA North Down. The dire situation Police Service NI finds itself in as its workforce numbers which continue to plummet is unsustainable. An IOU for up to £7million simply isn’t good enough.

Good choice. If things properly kick off on the Continent in the next few years, this is precisely the type of General that 🇮🇪 would want in this role. Great to see operational excellence being recognised…👍 Army Ranger Wing Association Óglaigh na hÉireann Michael O’Toole Cormac O'Keeffe
