Really grateful for The Guardian’s reporting on these most horrific of war crimes. An estimated 35,000 children stolen, forced Russification and forced adoptions. This is an act of genocide, all methodically planned by the Russian state. theguardian.com/world/2025/jun…

In 2014 John Mearsheimer wrote in The New York Times, Crimea is "surely lost for good." Why? As Rory Finnin tells UNITED24 Media, the answer is laziness. "Many such pundits don't know Russian. They certainly don't know Ukrainian or Crimean Tatar." /1 united24media.com/perspectives/w…

Morning in Kyiv. No sleep. Air quality is extremely bad. City is covered in thick smoke. This is Russian terror, aimed at people who chose to stay, resist and fight.

I'm just back from a week in Ukraine. During one night, Russia fired 537 missiles and drones at the country - the largest total since 2022. Even a town far from the frontlines has row after row of graves for those killed by the invaders. It's heart-rending and enraging.

I’m numb, tbh. I don’t even know how else we, as journalists, should cover this Russian terror against Ukrainian cities for the West to finally wake up, and send all the defense Ukraine needs. Do they even get that the war in Europe is at their doorstep? I’m not sure.

The US also claimed Ceban had help from Kremlin consultants when setting up his party MAN. Currently Ceban is part of a so-called pro-European bloc called The Alternative. He has been welcome to Romania by PSD so far, meeting even former PM Ciolacu zdg.md/stiri/politic/…

At night, the Russians attacked the city of Chernivtsi near the Romanian border with missiles and drones. They hit residential buildings and killed 4 people. It made no sense. The city is 700 km from the front. Its residents do not pose any threat to Russia. With such terrorist

A brutal night in Ukraine. Russia bombed Lviv, Lutsk, and Chernivtsi — where civilians were killed. This is daily terror. Homes reduced to rubble. Ukraine urgently needs more air defenses. More support. Every delay costs lives.
