I promise to do everything I can to support Ukraine in 2025. Nothing less than #VictoryForUkraine
Spot the difference: In Ukraine, people protest and no one is jailed. I’m as shocked as anyone though, the very thing Zelensky is respected for, fighting corruption while fighting Russia is now under scrutiny.
Kyiv Mayor Vitalii Klitschko and his brother Volodymyr are joining the protests in central Kyiv against parliament’s move to strip key anti-corruption bodies of their independence.
На Київщині відсьогодні працює диференційована систему повітряних тривог. У разі прольоту БпЛА над окремим районом тривогу оголошуватимуть лише в цьому районі, а не по всій області. 00:45 24.07.25
00.50 Одещина: 10х БпЛА в 20 км від Одеси. 4х БпЛА повз Роздільну. 5х БпЛА на Татарбунари. ~8х БпЛА в акваторії чорного моря. 00:50 24.07.25

Well, all I hear is "we have one enemy: Russia, do let us unite"
Russia may leverage public disturbance in Ukraine over crackdown on anti-corruption agencies, Ukraine's Defence Intelligence says pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2025/…
This protest is deeply moving. No hate against anyone, the chant is "Corruption is our enemy". All the side streets of Maidan are full with singing people. I was just offered cake, people come to shake your hand and talk. Ukraine can be proud of its youth.
Let them have it.

Many people with signs, others making them on the spot #Maidan
A lot of improvements are possible and needed to create & keep trust, and room for criticism, but Aleksander is probably right. I can't imagine anyone else taking the international stage, and a removal would be exactly what the kremlin wants.
No one can replace Zelenskyy and keep the war effort going. And Zelenskyy's removal is EXACTLY what russia (and perhaps the US) want - Zelenskyy gone, and Ukraine's war effort crippled. At the moment we don't really need to join the EU, despite the protests. We need to defeat…
The bill that @ZelenskyyUa signed today, translated to English, all 10 pages:
I choose to hold my tongue for now on @ZelenskyyUa decision & continue my trust in him. Often we're only seeing things through a single lens which gives us a very limited perspective, one that's often shaped by our own biases. Until there is a broader context, we carry on xoxo ✌️
⚡️Russia to draft year-round under proposed continuous mobilization. The State Duma, the lower chamber of Russia's parliament, on July 22 submitted a bill that, if passed, will expand Russia's seasonal mobilization into a year-round draft. kyivindependent.com/russia-to-draf…
It makes me wonder what the arguments are for this law. I only see quotes from those opposed to it.
Makes you wonder what kind of massive shit they’ve got on someone from Zelensky’s inner circle for the bill to pass the Rada and get signed into law in such a wild rush.
Here is one of the striking examples. Unfortunately, I cannot single out one or several people here, because there are too many of them... the problem is in the system. And in this system there are both simple fools who do not even understand that they are harming Ukraine,…
❗️Ukraine Passes Law Undermining Anti-Corruption Agencies’ Independence — G7 and EU Express Concern The Verkhovna Rada has passed draft law #12414, which effectively strips Ukraine’s anti-corruption bodies (NABU and SAPO) of their independence by placing them under the control…
⚡️3 killed, 45 injured in Russian strikes across Ukraine, including child killed in Kramatorsk bomb attack. Russian forces launched 42 Shahed-type attack drones and other drones overnight, Ukraine's Air Force said. kyivindependent.com/at-least-3-kil…
Whilst many of us are relieved that Kyiv was spared last night, let's not forget the ongoing horror russia is inflicting on Odesa.
Straight to events in Odesa then. At around 2am Russian drones descended on the city. There seem to be 3 sites of damage - though at least one may be debris damage. Mayor Hennadiy Trukhanov, a great self publicist, released a video after visiting the site of the worst damage.
