Ukraine Woke Up Like This

Russian troops out of gas and stuck on Ukrainian roads. This drivers pulls up and jokes, “need a tow… back to Russia?” Russian soldiers awkwardly chuckle. https://t.co/yHDYfZuCGD

Apparently, thousands of Romanians have been waiting in their personal vehicles to pick up #refugees at one of the NE borders with #Ukraine.

Zelensky shouts out anti-war Russian celebrities, including YouTuber Yury Dud, Novaya Gazeta editor and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Dmitry Muratov, and singer Valery Meladze - "your conscience has been heard, and it's been heard loudly" https://t.co/bgI69WPsvd

Weren’t the Russians supposed to be winning this social media war? I’m beginning to seriously worry about the U.S., that we were such easy marks.

The Ukrainian Defense Ministry is apparently launching a hotline for the mothers of Russian soldiers captured or killed in #Ukraine.

Smart move to reach out to families in #Russia and break through some of the Kremlin-enforced silence. https://t.co/q0pCqLmu0U

UKR Ministry of Defense says these are artillery fire locator beacons that Russian forces drop at crossroads and near troop concentrations. If you find one. Smash it. pic.twitter.com/hA3Hxmm93V

THREAD 1/7 Intel from a Ukrainian officer about a meeting in Putin’s lair in Urals. Oligarchs convened there so no one would flee. Putin is furious, he thought that the whole war would be easy and everything would be done in 1-4 days. @EPPGroup @general_ben @edwardlucas @politico pic.twitter.com/8AoelUDWM9

3/7 The next Russian weapons can be produced in 3-4 months – if even that. They have no raw materials. What was previously supplied mainly from Slovenia, Finland and Germany is now cut off.

5/7 Alpha Spec Ops have been near Kyiv since the 18th February. The goal was to take Kyiv and instal a puppet regime. They are preparing provocations against innocent civilians – women and children – to sow panic. This is their trump card.

7/7 The Ukrainians must avoid panic! The missile strikes are for intimidation, the Russians fire them at random to “accidentally” hit residential buildings to make the attack look larger than it really is. Ukraine must stay strong and we must provide assistance! #StandWithUkraine

8/7 Spread this information so the world would realise how important it is to assist Ukraine right now and without hesitation! It is difficult for Russia, but it is difficult for Ukraine as well if the West does not provide meaningul support! @EPPGroup @MFAestonia @MoD_Estonia

If every Russian soldier who surrenders to Ukraine was allowed to live in the West, Putin’s army would surrender in a day.

- a joke circulating on the Polish internet.

We did it. Cyprus confirmed it will not block the decision to ban Russia from SWIFT. Ukrainian diplomacy keeps working 24/7 to achieve important decisions and protect Ukraine from Russian invaders.

Kudos to Ukrainians for switching road signs around!! https://t.co/ETfexzv6jw
