Protests against Law 12414 took place in Kharkiv today. It was peaceful. Cars passing by were beeping in support. I’m incredibly proud of my fellow citizens for showing up despite being so close to the frontline, knowing full well they could be bombed without warning. These…
The Ukrainian Anti-Corruption Action Centre gives its tentative approval to Zelensky's submitted bill which restores the independence of Ukrainian anti-corruption authorities.
1/ So President Zelensky submitted DL #13533 that restores NABU & SAPO independence - everything that 263 MPs destroyed on July 22nd. This is the result of incredible Ukrainians who showed the government they won't let their European future be destroyed. 🇺🇦

Ukraine’s Security Service has detained a woman who planted an explosive (photo) in a Kyiv restaurant under instructions from Russian intelligence. It’s a clear act of terrorism, in line with Russia’s strategy of Shahed strikes across Ukraine and “human safari” in Kherson.

Unsurprisingly, Marjorie Taylor Greene is lying. This protest had absolutely nothing to do with Zelensky "refusing to make a peace deal" or "ending the war". I know, because I was actually there.
Huge protests erupt in Kyiv against Ukrainian President Zelensky as he is a dictator and refuses to make a peace deal and end the war. Good for the Ukrainian people! Throw him out of office! And America must STOP funding and sending weapons!!!
A tired Zelensky skirts the political storm in his nightly address. Claims Ukraine’s anti-corruption institutions still functioning, “but w/o Russian influence or interests.” No reference to protests or nationwide backlash his controversial bill caused. t.me/truexakyiv/555…
Head of Ukrainian military intelligence, Kyrylo Budanov, comments on today's events and protests: "Ukrainian history has taught us that a nation loses if it is torn apart by internal contradictions. We have one common problem, one enemy. Therefore, internal contradictions…
