This is a thread to show how the world’s biggest human rights, humanitarian, environmental and animal protection organisations failed Ukraine midst the #KakhovkaDam collapse near #Kherson : the biggest man made catastrophe in decades.

Starting with giants like @ICRC @UNOCHA that failed to provide any substantial assistance in #Kherson yet already bragging on Twitter about magical 2000-7000 people they’ve helped, while Ukrainians on the ground report nothing of the sort. Image
@ICRC is cooperating with russia and accepting worldwide donations, yet failed to help people on occupied by russia territories like Oleshky: locals now report dozens of bodies flowing on the streets. Image
organisations like @ICRC AND @UNOCHA run billion dollar donations campaigns using “Ukraine crisis” as a bait for over a year now. Yet they are nowhere to be seen when thousands of civilians (mostly elderly and disabled) are drowning in real time, unable to evacuate. Image
Biggest human rights organisations like @hrw and @amnesty stayed silent about Ukrainians unable to evacuate from the occupied by russians 🇺🇦 territories. I guess a human right to survive does not apply to 🇺🇦. Yet both of these orgs collect donations regularly. Image
Environmental and animal protection organisations like @Greenpeace @WWF @UNEP @ejfoundation also didn’t mention #kakhovkadam in any way despite the catastrophe already killed thousands of animals in 1 day, wiping the whole ecosystem for decades to come. Image
Locals report that water smells of oil. Reports show that russians dumped over 150 k tons of oil waste into water. Was there any reaction from @JustStop_Oil about #KakhovkaDam ? Not even a mention. Image
So far no country offered to send rescue teams to Ukraine to help evacuate people and animals. Even during the full scale russian invasion, Ukraine sent its rescuers to eliminate the consequences of the earthquake in Turkey. Hope that will change soon Image
Right now, the russians are shelling the evacuation site for civilians in flooded #Kherson
I would call it a war crime and a human rights violation, but let’s see if any renowned human rights organisations will mention that

Want to help Ukraine? Never donate to the big organisations. Look for direct local 🇺🇦 charities or volunteers. For example, right now @LyrYevhen is running a big campaign and can use any help: requisites and ppal inside quicknote.io/9a7e32e0-47e8-… Image

І до українців: зараз носити скріни інших «хуйових» українців чи просто вчергове писати укр твіти що маск єбанат НІЧО НЕ ДАСТЬ.
зрозумійте, зараз лише англ:
1) хуєсосити орги які брешуть шо вони в Херсоні
2) під медіа писати що це 🇷🇺 підірвала
3) лайкати і пошир офіц заяви 🇺🇦
Не знаєте куди йти і шо писати чи лайкати? Зайдіть на мене, профіль, вкладка Відповіді (replies) і ВСЕ ЩО АНГЛ МОВОЮ, поки у вас палець не заболить.
Думаєте що це все хуйня, нічо не дасть і взагалі це має робити, простигосподи, держава: ідіть на акаунти @MFA_Ukraine або @United24media чи @ZelenskyyUa і все що англійською за останні 2 дні теж лайкаєте

The discussion of the assassination attempt of russian propagandist Zakhar Prilepin is missing important context: in 2007-2008 he along with @navalny founded “НАРОД” - an ultranationalist movement to “liberate the russian population” from whom you ask? Image
“НАРОД» mission was to “liberate” the truly russian (i.e. white and ethnically russian) population from not so pure ethnic minorities. They implicated using guns to deal with “pesky immigrants” and run “nationalist recruitment campaigns” like this one
By 2011 “НАРОД» activity dialed down yet @navalny kept the course and fear mongered Islamophobia as well as pushed for anti-immigration policies in 2014.

I’m glad this “anti-war” russian brought a speech by @vkaramurza in GOP where he is “discussing the war crimes of 🇷🇺”. I watched it. Out of 15 minute speech he mentioned war crimes in Ukraine for 8 seconds (9:00-9:10). But the whole speech is fascinating, so let’s dive in.
Kara Murza is a brilliant speaker, no doubts about it. His command of the word and storytelling skill is impressive. And he starts by acknowledging the situation and mentioning how hard was it for him to get to the us because of closed airspace around russia.
Then he reminded “western politicians” how appeasement feed dictatorship and how putin was a new hope in the eyes of west, while he was sending a clear message of him being a fan of Stalin era rule. Saying that he and many other 🇷🇺 knew from 1999 that putin is not democratic ImageImage

So @nytimes and @EmmaBubola made a podcast about “taken” 🇺🇦 children. And this is a prime example how forceful deportation of children by russians are portrayed as “saving” and not a textbook genocide practice. Let’s dive it, starting from “taken” part.
nytimes.com/2023/03/03/pod…
Apparently kids from the episode were in the middle of evacuation to Zaporizhzhia, when russian soldiers forcefully stopped the bus with guns and kidnapped the kids. The bus was then sent to russia. A journalist uses “taken” of all terms. Later we see why that choice was made.
While not emphasising the circumstances of the abduction and the context (aka russians invading and bombing the #Mariupol non stop, so the 🇺🇦 children had to be evacuated), the podcast is taking a rather unexpected turn.
