Russian Terrorist Attack

The Historic Transfiguration Cathedral in Ukraine Destroyed in Russian Strikes

Russian missiles badly damaged dozens of Ukrainian architectural landmarks, including a historic Orthodox cathedral in the southern port city of Odesa, sparking outrage and prompting President Volodymyr Zelensky to vow retaliation.

The strikes – the latest in a wave of attacks on Odesa – killed at least one person and injured several others, Ukrainian officials said. At least 25 architectural monuments were destroyed, a regional military official said.

“Russians deliberately aimed their missiles at the historic city center of Odesa, which is under the UNESCO protection. Everything that was built with hard work by great architects is now being destroyed by cynical inhumans,” Oleh Kiper said.

The Transfiguration Cathedral is Odesa’s largest church building. It was consecrated in 1809, destroyed during the Soviet era in 1936 before being rebuilt when Ukraine became an independent nation.

Due to floods caused by the russian terrorist attack on the Kakhovka HPP, the house-museum that belonged to ukrainian naive artist Polina Rayko is now underwater. A moment of appreciation for her art, she is one of my favorite naive artists

In early 2014, Ukraine was a neutral country, with a pro-Russian president, and with 70% of Ukraine's population against NATO membership. Yet Russia bluntly violated Ukraine's neutrality and annexed Crimea, then launched a covert invasion of Ukraine in the east.

Petro Poroshenko won the presidential election later in 2014 having promised a settlement with Russia, keeping a special status of the Russian language in Ukraine. He was initially sceptical regarding NATO accession, underlined Ukraine must rely on its own strength to provide security.

Did Putin meet Poroshenko halfway? Not at all. The regular Russian army entered the Ukrainian territory in mid-2014 to fight the Ukrainian troops, which led to the Minsk-1 agreement signed in September 2014.

Further text - down under the cut, or you can follow the Twitter link to the original post:

Few weeks later, Ukraine's parliament adopted a law that would guarantee the then Russia-controlled part of Donetsk and Luhansk regions additional economic, financial and cultural powers.

How did Putin react? Russia staged sham local elections in the occupied Donbas, and then sent the regular army again to Ukraine in early 2015, which led to the Minsk-2 agreement signed in February 2015.

Zelensky was even more sceptical regarding NATO accession. Asked about NATO, he once famously said he never pays anyone a visit if he has not been invited. He won the presidential election promising to compromise with Russia - to stop shooting, sit down with Putin and talk.

Did Putin meet Zelensky halfway? Not at all. He actually raised the stakes by issuing the Russian passports on the occupied territories of Ukraine even before Zelensky assumed the office, putting him in a difficult political position since the start.

Zelensky was ready to drop Ukraine's NATO bid in an exchange for the Russian troops withdrawing from Ukraine. The talks were held already before 2022. What did Putin do? He launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

In the first weeks of the invasion, Zelensky was yet again ready to drop Ukraine's NATO bid. But he wanted to obtain international security guarantees. What did Putin do? He demanded that Russia must be consulted before any aid would be given to Ukraine in the event of aggression.

To sum up, Ukraine has consistently tried to reach a deal with Russia over the last decade, and was open to giving up on its NATO bid in exchange for the withdrawal of the Russian troops from Ukraine. Russia never reciprocated, never showed a good will, kept raising the stakes.

Both Poroshenko and Zelensky were initially sceptical regarding Ukraine's accession to NATO. Both wanted to get a deal with Putin. And Putin himself pushed both of them to seek NATO membership out of no other viable alternatives.

Up till now, Putin has shown absolutely no willingness to compromise with Ukraine. His war aims remain maximalist - subjugating Ukraine and changing its regime. He seeks Ukraine's partition, and will turn what is left of Ukraine into Russian protectorate.

Russia's imperial self-conception is that of Russian elites at large, and not just Vladimir Putin. The Russian leadership simply cannot reconcile with the existence of a sovereign Ukrainian statehood.

Therefore any sustainable Ukrainian-Russian compromise is currently not possible unless the Russian cost-benefit calculus changes. Only credible risk to the stability of the Russian regime would impact this calculus. The easiest way goes through defeating Russia in Ukraine.

On July 19 twelve Ukrainian children were returned to their homeland from the temporarily occupied territories in the Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions. They are now in the territory controlled by Ukraine.Families shared how they were forcibly issued russian passports, without which they were deprived of rights.

"Doctors do not accept even children with special needs who need careful care. However, parents are offered to send their children for 'rehabilitation,' which often turns out to be deportation or forced relocation. Some children had to attend 'russian schools,' where active propaganda for 'russian world' was conducted," said Ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets.

Those who have been returned report that russians in the Temporarily Occupied Territories detain, beat, and torture adults with electricity, apply psychological pressure, and interrogate children without their parents,also using torture methods.

!!!Using tortures to the children!!!

Photos and information about Ukrainian children who were kidnapped and transported to russia during the early months of the full-scale invasion in 2022 are being posted by the occupiers on adoption websites.

aight I've signal boosted everything related to the latest attack that may have killed me in my sleep now it's time to take another two-week break from this site for my mental health

Я в ахуї. Or, as Poles say, jestem pod wrażeniem. More than 36K people shared this post. Let me remind you who you are promoting:

This is not the abstract Yemen who is participating in terrorism, this is the whole organisation that controls Yemen the same way Hamas controls Palestine. It is called the Houthis, and their rhetoric is very close to the nazi. There's a reason why UN banned them, but no one seems to be interested in the actual problem.

Not even mentioning that "puppets in the UN" is the narrative that is actively spread by russia - the state which finances... 🥁🥁🥁 Hamas as well!

I kindly ask my mutuals not to support this and not to participate in spreading this shit.

P.S. Israel exports a lot of pharmaceuticals, machinery and equipment, medical instruments, computer hardware and software, agricultural products, chemicals, textiles, etc. So there is nothing to be happy about, especially for medics.
