En ondertussen komen de Russen op het slagveld al tijden niet of nauwelijks vooruit. Alles is erop gericht de bevolking te terroriseren.
Repair work to restore critical infrastructure is ongoing in many regions of Ukraine. In January alone, Russia launched more than 6,000 attack drones against us, around 5,500 guided aerial bombs, and 158 missiles of various types. Virtually all of it targeted the energy sector,

Rusland heeft de energie-infra in Oekraïne kapot gebombardeerd. Er is geen warmte. Het is er -19. Zelfs de metro in Kyiv rijdt niet meer. Echt ongelooflijk:
Kyiv residents share photos and videos on social media showing their freezing apartments and how they are trying to keep warm.

The entire nation of Ukraine is fighting valiantly for its life, freezing and under constant bombardment from Russia. Meanwhile, cozy European leaders discuss incremental sanctions and refuse to seize assets or stop the Russian shadow fleet that finances this genocide in Europe.
Kyiv. Five and a half hours after the total blackout (officially: a major system outage) began. Water is back, electricity is back, still no heating in my district. Ukraine 💪

‼️ Ukraine is in a total blackout. A major system failure has knocked out power across large parts of the country. Kyiv has no water supply citywide. Energy workers are racing to restore electricity, but this is an emergency right now.

A genocide against Ukrainians is unfolding right now. It already has a name: "Kholodomor" (exhaustion through cold) This crime is being deliberately committed by Russia. In legal terms, it has a clear definition - genocide. Under Article II of the UN Convention on the

Dit is een ongekende humanitaire crisis. Er vriezen mensen dood. Dat is een direct gevolg van Ruslands oorlogsmisdaden. Normaalgesproken had dit tot nasale protesten en inzamelingsacties geleid. We lijken (de meerderheid) qua Oekraïne murw te zijn geslagen.

Hallo meneren en mevrouwen in de politiek! Het wordt -21C komend weekend. Talloze mensen zitten zonder warmte en elektriciteit. De Oekraïners vriezen dood. Zet Rusland onder de zwaarst mogelijke politieke, economische en militaire druk.
