BREAKING: Zelensky announces that Ukraine will free convicted criminals to fight the Russians.

"We have taken a decision which is not easy from the moral point of view, but which is useful from the point of view of our defense."
"Under martial law, Ukrainian [criminals] with real combat experience will be released from custody and will be able to compensate for their guilt in the hottest spots of the conflict." - President Zelensky

My take: ...What could go wrong?

MUST WATCH: American on the ground in Kiev reports rapes, murders, and looting after the government hands out military weapons to criminals.

"The Zelensky regime has gone insane."
For people asking for proof: We've seen video from the ground in Kiev multiple nights with non-stop gunfire.

It was widely assumed at the time those were Russian troops, but it turned out they hadn't entered the city.

This guy's explanation is the logical one: criminal gangs.
We've also seen video of the Ukrainian government handing out rifles to civilians.

And President Zelensky specifically stated that convicted criminals would be *freed from prison* to fight the Russians.

So yes, this guy is biased against Zelensky, but his story 100% checks out.

Russia has targeted a TV tower in Kiev.

There are reports that local news channels are no longer available over the airwaves.

Alternate angle of the Russian strike on the Kiev TV tower.
It's being reported that the Russian Ministry of Defense warned not to approach the relay nodes before the strike.

Russia has obviously killed civilians by launching this operation, but they're going to greater lengths to protect them than the U.S. did in Iraq.

SITREP Day 5: The war in Ukraine is on the verge of becoming a NATO-Russia conflict.

If ordinary people understood how serious the situation is, they would be panicking.

Humanity is closer to a third world war than ever before.
The critical escalation occurred when the European Union announced that it would provide fighter jets to Ukraine.

It was claimed, not merely that the jets would be provided at a later date, but that they would *immediately* be over Ukraine. Image
This made it obvious that the jets would be piloted by EU pilots, not Ukrainians.

As soon as this was pointed out, the claim was retracted.

But not before the suspicion that the EU would be sending fighter pilots to Ukraine became widespread within Russia.

Russia has conducted an air strike near the regional government headquarters in Kharkiv.

The video is very intense.
Here is the aftermath of the blast.

It appears that civilians inside the building were injured but not killed.

There is an interesting theory from @RWApodcast that the target of the strike may have been an Azov Battalion recruitment station *outside* the building.

This can't be proven definitively, but it seems plausible from this thread:

ATTENTION: There is a targeted disinformation campaign being waged against me.

Fake tweets are circulating that include insane predictions and worship of Putin.

Please help me discredit these lies wherever they appear.
One obvious way to tell these are fakes: They show me writing "Kyiv" in the Ukrainian style.

In reality, I speak Russian and use Russian spellings, including "Kiev."
🚨URGENT: The targeted disinformation campaign against me now includes fake accounts.

They are using capital "i" instead of "L" to make the names look the same.

@verified can you please help me stop this? It's wartime disinformation. 🚨

Day 4- SITREP: The gulf between popular perception and strategic reality continues to grow in Ukraine.

If you only read Western media, you would think the Russian military was on the verge of defeat.

In reality, they have a clear path to victory.
Satellite imagery indicates that a massive Russian armored column, with +800 vehicles, is approaching Kiev from the north.

At the same time, Russian forces in the East are working to link up and encircle a large fraction of the Ukrainian military.

What we're witnessing is a funhouse mirror version of the Gulf War.

During that conflict, images of smart bombing broadcast into American homes highlighted U.S. dominance.

Today, Twitter images of Ukrainian tactical success are creating a false narrative of Russian defeat.
