Amid anti-semitic statements by Russia's foreign ministry and foreign minister Sergey Lavrov, Russian-organized Viber chats are actively spreading anti-semitic propaganda. This is hardly a coincidence. See examples in the thread. @TextyOrgUa#GreyZone#AgainstRussianLies
According to this picture, Jews pitted Russians and Ukrainians against each other and made them believe that the war is in their best interests. However, only Jews gain from this war, the text on the picture implies. @TextyOrgUa#GreyZone#AgainstRussianLies
The caption on this widely shared picture reads: "A nation without land will come to the land without a nation. Not a single synagogue was damaged during the fighting in Ukraine." This pic was made by Russians, since it reads "на Украине" @TextyOrgUa#GreyZone#AgainstRussianLies
This message is widely shared by anti-wax groups and implies that "under Jewish yoke" the best Ukrainians are sent to the frontline as "cannon fodder." Also, the message calls on Ukrainians to "stop this." @TextyOrgUa#GreyZone#AgainstRussianLies
This message "explains" that the war is only taking place in southern and eastern regions of Ukraine because "a new Israel was proclaimed with two capitals in Ukraine: Adessa and Dnipropetrovsk (sic!)" @TextyOrgUa #GreyZone#AgainstRussianLies

Surviving the blockade and occupation of Slavutych, northern Ukraine. A thread 1/14 #UkraineWorldTestimony
After the first explosions on the morning of February 24, Polina and her daughter Aglaia packed up and left Kyiv for Slavutych, a small town 50 km from the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant, where their family lives. 2/14
Slavutych is a town in the depths of pine forests, several kilometers away from the Belarusian border. Its population consists mainly of the nuclear power plant employees. The city has no strategic facilities, which is why Polina considered it a safe place to stay. 3/14
War story
1/14
At the beginning of the war.
Evacuation trains leave Kyiv overcrowded with confused, frightened children, nervous animals, and tired and exhausted people. Someone is lucky enough to sit in a chair, the rest just falls to the floor.
Some items of luggage take up all the remaining space. The train passes the station, and almost immediately the train car lights turn off with an instruction: no telephones, no bright lights, no Internet or geolocation. Everyone obediently turns off the screens. It's dark.
2/14
Quietly. The train carefully moves between the same dark fields and villages. Somewhere it slows down, somewhere it hurries up.
Children begin to be capricious. There is no place to go. Parents do their best to calm the little ones down.

All these people live in #Kharkiv underground for more than 2 months already. On Apr 29, the Russian occupiers fired on Kharkiv 16 times, 2 of which were from "Hrad" and "Smerch" multiple rocket launchers, Oleg Sinegubov, head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration said.
People are afraid to go upstairs at all, children refuse to get out of the underground because Russia is bombing the city.
Just imagine, an own separate world has already arisen there.

Lviv. Horrors of Russian shelling. Testimony of a witness. From an Instagram post by Olena Matviyas. 1/7
Air raid siren!
I was not afraid of that until today, because our air defense usually shot down enemy missiles. I only felt the shockwave once when it hit the repair plant. But now… 2/7
During that night I dreamed of horrors. I got up at 6 am, went to the kitchen, drank tea, played with my cat and went to bed again at 7:30. 3/7
