The story of Yulia, who had to give birth in Chernihiv during the shelling of the Russian military. A thread 1/12 #UkraineWorldTestimony

On the first day of the war, our youngest son woke us up. The teacher wrote to the children that there was no need to go to school today because the war had begun. At first we stayed at home, and then we went to the basement of the school, where we lived for 5 days. 2/12

Then we returned home because I was late in my pregnancy, and my kidneys had started hurting from sleeping on the floor in the basement. During the bombing we hid in the corridor. 3/12

The story of Olena's family, who survived the occupation and evacuation from a village near Hostomel. A thread 1/12 #UkraineWorldTestimony

Morning, Hostomel, a half-destroyed street, cars, frightened people. Someone said that we should leave the cars and walk through the blown-up crossing, where evacuation buses would be waiting on the other side. But this option did not suit me. 2/12

And then I saw two cars coming. It was clear from the faces of the men that they knew where they were going. I waved for them to stop. One driver said he knew a way around the damaged section of the road, and I joined a third car behind them. 3/12

1) Thread: Two British citizens and a Moroccan captured by Russians while fighting for Ukraine have been sentenced to death by the so-called "DPR court." bbc.com/news/uk-617455…

2) "DPR" is merely a Russian proxy in eastern Ukraine; therefore, all the responsibility for this decision lies on the Kremlin. This is increasingly clear given the reaction of Russian propaganda to this news.

3) Alexander Sladkov, a correspondent for Russian state-owned media company VGTRK, is very happy about the "court sentence." He argued that "Anglo-Saxons" thought themselves to be better than other nations and now pay for this.

1) Russian propagandists are looking for those responsible for disrupting negotiations between Ukraine and Russia. At first, they stated that it was an initiative of Ukraine, then they said that negotiations were not included in the plans of the West #AgainstRussianLies

2) On June 4, Russia's foreign minister Sergei Lavrov said that "the West had banned Ukraine from participating in negotiations with Russia" and called Ukraine "a bargaining chip".

3) On the same day, Sergei Tsekov, a Federation Council member, made the same statement. In his opinion, "because of the incitement of the Americans and Western powers, their conviction that Ukraine can win, there was a suspension of negotiations."
