#Ukraine remembers #Holodomor - Stalin's man-made #famine in 1932-1933

Largest deaths were recorded in Kyiv, Cherkasy, Poltava regions: from 1000 of people approximately 192,3-232,5 have died during this time.

🇺🇦 population reduced by 25% that time, 33% of victims- children
Today in Ukraine, the memory of the victims of the Holodomor is commemorated

In the 20th century, Ukrainians experienced three famines: 1921-1923, 1932-1933, and the 1946-1947 famine.
/2
The most extensive was the famine of 1932-1933 - it is called the genocide of the Ukrainian people, carried out by the Stalinist regime.

The Holodomor was preceded by the forcible collectivization of agriculture, the "dispossession" of peasants, a grain procurement campaign, /3
and mass terror in the countryside.

Terror by hunger, which operated in Ukraine for 22 months, is a conscious and purposeful policy of the Stalinist government, the strategy and tactics of which have been implemented since 1928. /4
This punitive and repressive action was aimed at the subjugation of the Ukrainian peasantry.

🕯 According to tradition, on this day, Ukrainians light a memorial candle in their homes in honor of those who died from artificial hunger.
/5
Because of Holodomor Ukraine has lost 7 to 10 million people. Whole families were dead. The villages were abandoned. The death was not treated as something unusual

"Bird" from "Azovstal" moved with a poem written in captivity

Paramedic Kateryna "Ptashka" Polishchuk, who not only defended "Azovstal" and Mariupol, but also supported her brothers and sisters with her songs in the most difficult days, now moved Ukrainians with her poem. /1 Image
The girl wrote it while in Russian captivity

According to Kateryna, she wrote her poem on June 12, when she was held captive by the occupiers. The paramedic could not write it down and save it, so she learned it by heart.

/2
Yes, "Bird" repeated the written poem every day before being released from captivity in the morning and in the evening

The fire of the gods will descend, the cannons will thunder,

Eternal brotherhood will spread the stars and sparks

⚡️ @TheStudyofWar: The Russians know they can't stop the Ukrainian Armed Forces from crossing the Dnieper
The authors of the report "assess the defensive positions that #AF_RF occupy in the eastern part of the Kherson region, and what these positions say about the expectations /1 Image
of the Russian Federation regarding future operations in the area."

The main conclusion made in the document is that the #AF_RF command is well aware that the Armed Forces of Ukraine can force the Dnieper at almost any moment and continue the counteroffensive /2
on the left bank of the river, in the eastern part of the Kherson region.

Moreover, Russian forces have no illusions about their capabilities and "clearly do not expect to be able to prevent the Ukrainian troops from crossing the river" - and therefore do not even make /3

Today we held the first International Summit on Food Security. We don't just fight off aggression. Step by step, we are creating a system that will stop aggression, dismantle its consequences, and guarantee long-term security – /1
the security of Ukraine, all of Europe, and the world.

Food security is one of the key elements of global stability. This is where Ukraine's leading role is most evident.

More than 20 countries supported our summit. /2
The total amount that we have accumulated for Grain From Ukraine is already almost $150 million. Work continues. We are preparing up to 60 ships.

Never again should hunger be used as a weapon.

I thank everyone who helps us! /3

Spioner, spioner, spioner …..
Ibland utfärdar man löften som det ibland visar sig vara omöjligt att hålla Jag lovade att återkomma med information så snart jag läst igenom förundersökningen mot spionbröderna/1
Jag har fort farande inte hunnit med samtliga de 2.501 sidorna jag har lagrade på min dator men vad ska man göra när mängder av Sveriges journalister slänger sig över en. Jag hade kommit halvvägs genom förundersökningen när nästa spionaffär exploderade –

två ryssar som också visade sig arbeta för GRU. Efter några dussin intervjuer ska jag i alla fall försöka sammanfatta det som har blivit känt om de bägge spionaffärerna och de slutsatser som man troligtvis kan dra från det som publicerats.

The Russian army is bombarding Ukraine with obsolete missiles from its nuclear arsenal, removing their warheads. This conclusion was made by British intelligence, having studied photographs of downed shells.

/1 Image
Open source images show the wreckage of a destroyed AS-15 Kent (X-55) air-launched cruise missile designed in the 1980s to carry nuclear weapons. The warhead was probably replaced with ballast, intelligence officials say.

/2
Most likely, Russian forces use such missiles as decoys to divert Ukrainian air defenses. Projectiles are dangerous even without nuclear warheads, since they can cause damage "due to their kinetic energy and unused fuel." However, /3
