#Analysis: Ukrainian army needs more shells for its artillery. On Donbas, it outnumbers Russians in personnel, but has less equipment and shells, says Yuriy Butusov, a popular Ukrainian war journalist, quoted by @tweetsNV 1/3
Today's war is primarily about logistics. Russians are concentrating their forces on several points in Donbas where they try to break through the Ukrainian defense. 2/3
Ukraine also needs drones for better correcting its fire. Ukrainian soldiers are confident that Ukraine will win. All now depends on the efficiency and accuracy of artillery, incl. supplied by NATO countries, he says 3/3

Kyiv oblast. Bucha district. Horrors of the Russian invasion. Testimony of a witness. A thread 1/10 #UkraineWorldTestimony
On Feb 28, 2022, Russian vehicles moved through the village of Makariv in the direction of Kyiv. Over 45 tanks, 10 infantry fighting vehicles, 2 BUKs and many personal vehicles. Local activists organized into a territorial defense. Buzova became one of such settlements. 2/10
That day, the defense needed fuel. But after the shocking footage from Borodyanka, everyone understood the risks of going to the Zhytomyr highway. When a local resident, 33-year-old Oleg Tkachuk, heard about the needs of his native village, he volunteered to bring fuel. 3/10

we're often addressed by foreign media with questions about the language issue in Ukraine. So quick explainer here. A thread 1/10
yes, Ukrainian is different from the Russian language. In some aspects it's closer to Belarusian and Polish. Russians need a substantial training to understand Ukrainian, and much more training to speak and write. Think of the difference btw Italian, French and Spanish. 2/10
Ukrainian was banned from the public use in the Russian empire for almost half of the century (1863-1905). No literature, theatre performances, cultural events in Ukrainian were alowed. 3/10

Mainstream Russian media use tabloid journalism when criticizing @POTUS and spreading anti-Western narratives. See examples in the thread. @TextyOrgUa #GrayZone #AgainstRussianLies
«Biden often makes ridiculous gaffes in his public speeches. Take the latest – double blooper during his speech at the White House. First, the president got lost in the ATF abbreviation (American Federation of Teachers) and then could not pronounce the nominee’s last name right»
«The US calls for Biden’s impeachment, after the president’s attempt to «shake hands with thin air» @TextyOrgUa #GrayZone #AgainstRussianLies
