    Thank you BBC for not forgetting about Ukraine, amidst the chaos in the world, new wars and conflicts unfolding, it is crucial to continue supporting the nation that is indeed holding the eastern front for the whole Western world in the fight for their freedom against a terrorist neighbour.

    About the Russian Iskander missile attack that hit a cafe in the village of Groza, #Hroza, in Kharkiv region to Kupyansk direction. Apparently that the cafe was a gathering place for Ukrainian ultra nationalists from Aidar Battalion as targets, on the day of the funeral of one of the top leaders of their group which was attended by at least 150 of his last brothers in arms.

    I don't know what they were thinking in 2014, killing innocent civilians in Donbas, including children…. Now they are paying the price. Russians have always defeated nazis. They've done it in WW2, and they're gonna do it again.

    А чтож вы, европейские телеканалы в Донецк не ездите? Вам бы мирные граждане там ссказали, кто их реально 8 лет обстреливал!

    Why don't you, European TV channels, go to Donetsk? The civilians there would have told you who really shelled them for 8 years!

    German opposition leader hospitalized on suspicion of poisoning
    Tino Chrupalla, one of the leaders of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, an opposition party to the government that has increased in popularity in recent years, was hospitalized after collapsing at a campaign event.
    According to an announcement on the party's website, medical examinations carried out by the Ingolstadt Clinic confirm a "needle prick in the right arm".
    Furthermore, an intramuscular infection with an unknown substance had occurred.
    "The forensic toxicological analysis is ongoing," the AfD statement said.

    Ukraine is now trapped
    I feel for everyone that has been affected by the operation especially those that lived loved ones or a limb…
    I hate to say this but the US is to blame for:
    1. Over throwing the pro-Ukrainian President
    2. violating an agreement not to expand eastwards…….
    Russia was left with no choice and unfortunately our friends are paying the price…

    It’s difficult to know the number of casualties in Ukraine because it’s against the law to tell the truth, and they’re supposedly fighting for freedom, but they are not allowed speech freedom. Where is the freedom?

PC Andrew Harper’s killers to stay in jail | BBC News Exclusive

Published

on



Prime Minister Andy Burnham has told the BBC that PC Andrew Harper’s killers will remain behind bars as he announces changes to the early release scheme aimed at easing prison overcrowding. 

In an exclusive interview with BBC Breakfast, Burnham said anyone convicted of manslaughter will be excluded from changes brought in under the Sentencing Act, which would have made the killers eligible for early release. 

Burnham said extra prison spaces would be created by deporting “hundreds” of foreign prisoners and releasing some inmates serving indefinite sentences.

At least 27 dead and hundreds evacuated after strike on Kyiv warehouse | BBC News

Published

on



Twenty-seven people have been killed and almost 400 evacuated after a Russian strike hit a warehouse near Kyiv, triggering a fire and a series of explosions.

Regional governor Tymur Tkachenko said a further 42 people, including four children, were injured after the Russian drone strike in the Bucha district.

An investigation has been launched into whether ammunition was being stored at the site, where search and rescue operations were ongoing early on Saturday.

Russia’s Ministry of Defence said in a statement that its forces had targeted “an ammunition depot” in the Kyiv region village of Myla, which stores “components and launch boosters for FP-1/FP-2 long-range unmanned aerial vehicles”.

Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed his condolences to the families of the victims of the strike, saying that more than 300 emergency respondents had been deployed to the strike area.
