Streets of Izium in the Kharkiv region are covered in anti-drone nets.

How quickly our reality changes. Only a few years ago, the idea that we would need to cover our streets to survive the russian 'human safari' seemed absurd. Now it’s our life...

Smart move by Starmer, as it comes on the heels of a deterioration in relations with the US. and the visit by Trump to the UK.
They will be watching this with some alarm in DC, as the US's strongest European ally seeks opportunities elsewhere.

Bovino was forced out of Minnesota because the American people stood firm. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in below-freezing temps to peacefully defend their neighbors & freedoms.

We’ll keep fighting. No more deaths at the hands of rogue DHS agents.

Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov threatened Ukraine and Europe, predicting a future military alliance between the US and Russia. He claimed to understand Trump better than anyone else. If you want to see Orwellian propaganda in real life, watch this.

OTD in 1935 Hitler assured Poland he would not invade them. A few years later he said Germans were being oppressed & killed so he attacked, carried out genocide and spent the last years of his life in bunker detached from reality.

Imagine all that happening today.

Day 1417 of my 3 day war. My invasion has now lasted longer than our war with Nazi Germany. With American supplies & Ukrainian soldiers helping, they advanced 1800km in that time. We have managed about 60.

The Ukrainian GUR released details of the operation concerning Denis Kapustin pretended assasination.

In this video a drone strike against Kapustin was simulated. Afterwards, this video was sent to the Russian handlers who then paid for the operation $500,000.
