The entire Ukraine is posting pictures and emoji of watermelons 🍉 today - a big symbol of Kherson oblast that provides this delicious treat to the entire country.
The Ukrainian people is sincerely grateful to Poland, which fraternally came to the help of our country during its greatest trials. If any “Slavic brotherhood” does exist, it is a brotherhood of Ukraine and Poland. 2/
Russia envies such a unity of the Ukrainian and Polish peoples, so it is trying to drive a wedge between them in every possible way — inventing outright fakes and speculating on the history. Poland was not afraid to openly declare its support for Ukraine. 3/
RU deports residents of Kherson region to its territory, and does not plan to bring them back, promising the “right to choose” a new place of residence in 🇷🇺. Is it evacuation? No, it's deportation and another war crime of 🇷🇺. Read more in the thread. #DeportationNotEvacuation 1/
What is happening now at the front? Retreating in Luhansk and Kherson regions, the enemy concentrated its main forces for attacks in Donetsk Oblast. 🇺🇦 soldiers holding the front near Bakhmut, Soledar, and Vuhlehirsk are real titans, constantly withstanding crazy enemy attacks.1/
In Donetsk region, the forces of Wagner's mercenaries and conscripted convicts are engaged. The occupiers lost more people and ammunition in fruitless attacks than they did in the two Russian-Chechen wars. 2/
Military personnel of the 155th Naval Infantry Brigade of the Pacific Fleet openly complain about the high losses in the Vuhledar direction: 300 dead, wounded, captured, and missing in just 4 days. 3/
A photo of graffiti with Zelenskyy in Warsaw is spreading on the Internet. It's a fake! 1/
Russian propagandists actively post a graffiti picture with the President of Ukraine eating the money of Europeans. It allegedly appeared on the central street of Warsaw. The photos are signed like this: “A 'black hole' named after Zelenskyy was found in Warsaw.” 2/
There was never such graffiti at this place, and the precinct authorities did not receive any signals from locals. 3/
Peace is war, and war is an operation. “Orwellian” newspeak remains a serious tool to control the consciousness of people in 🇷🇺 info field. How the Kremlin uses euphemisms in its communication, what is newspeak, and its examples — read in our thread. spravdi.gov.ua/en/booms-and-g… 1/
The roots of Putin’s newspeak lie in the language of Soviet official narrative, full of ideological and bureaucratic clichés. When commenting on events, officials began to use only permitted terms and avoid taboo words (“explosion”, “fire”, “catastrophe”). 2/
Newspeak ideologically colours the speech, justifies repression and wars of aggression. Any protests in 🇷🇺are considered “unrest,” the annexation of Crimea turns into “reunion,” and the occupation of Ukrainian lands during a full-scale invasion into “liberation.” 3/
Blackmail is Kremlin’s favourite tool in the war against 🇺🇦 and the whole democratic world. But this time, Russia's starvation blackmail failed, so Moscow was forced to abandon threats and return to the status quo. A THREAD 1/
Kremlin is lying about receiving supposedly additional “written security guarantees” from 🇺🇦. This is just an attempt to “save Putin's face.”
🇺🇦 is in strict compliance with its obligations under the agreement and has never used the grain corridor for military purposes. 2/
🇷🇺 did not dare to block the grain corridor forcibly, given that its diplomatic position has deteriorated compared to spring-summer. The short absence of 🇷🇺 among the participants in the “grain deal” has shown that the mechanism can work effectively without it. 3/
