I mention the World Cup as #Russia has a history of using big events to hide some of the worst atrocities.
In 2014 the Terrorist State was actually covertly invading #Crimea while hosting the Winter Olympics.
And don't forget FIFA let Russia host the last WC despite waging war.

Again fairly quiet overnight in #Ukraine and for the last 24 hours little movement on the frontline.
#Russia's daily losses reflect that with the trend towards lower numbers continuing for the time being.

The Shiveluch volcano in #Russia has woken up.
A full eruption is predicted soon after an earthquake measuring 5.7 on the Richter Scale.
This is happening in #Kamchatka, which is even further east than Japan.

The @IAEA has issued a strong response, but clearly is so for unable, or unwilling, to apportion blame for the attack on the #Zaoprizhzhia nuclear power plant in Occupied #Ukraine.

Look at this theatrical powerplay in #Russia.
It's said two newly mobilised recruits refused to fight and were hauled out of line and arrested. The whole thing looks like a set up to me, especially the way the two guys run down to make the first "arrest"

Lovely tale here
Volodymyr Yanitsky is almost blind. He's from a front line village in #Donetsk. His disability doesn't stop him painting and his art work he sells with all profits going to #Ukraine's armed forces.
