Got a minute?❓ 👧🏽🧒🏽 Step into the shoes of children displaced by the war in Syria. 🎥 Take a 360° tour of the EU-funded Temporary Learning Centre, built by @PIN_MiddleEast, offering hope through education.
Ukrainians didn’t flee by choice - russia’s unprovoked war forced them to. Ireland’s Accommodation Scheme was a humanitarian lifeline, not a profit scheme. Public debate must never target people escaping bombs and missiles. 🇺🇦🇮🇪
The Ukrainian Accomodation Payment Scheme is unfair and deeply divisive. Landlords are using the scheme to line their pockets while renters struggle with rising costs and a broken housing system. The scheme must now be urgently reviewed. We need fairness and transparency.
This is an infuriating post. Definitely worth translating. @dubowy_alex is 💯 right. What Russia is doing to Ukraine's kids is an abomination.
Mein aktueller Kommentar für @berlinerzeitung über eines der widerwärtigsten Verbrechen von Wladimir Putins Russland im Ukrainekrieg - das erschreckende Schicksal der vom Kreml entführten ukrainischen Kinder. Seit Invasionsbeginn entführte Moskau zehntausende ukrainische Kinder.…
😭😭 Sad news. I only commented the other day how nice it was to live in a world that had no Kissinger, but still had Tom Lehrer and Mel Brooks 🥺
“Tom Lehrer, the Harvard-trained mathematician whose wickedly iconoclastic songs made him a favorite satirist in the 1950s and ’60s on … campuses and in all the Greenwich Villages of the country, died on Saturday at his home in Cambridge, Mass. He was 97” nytimes.com/2025/07/27/art…
Shhhhhhhh You hear that? You hear that? That's Viktor Orban screaming.
NOW - Trump meets with Ursula von der Leyen, says she has "really done a terrific job— for [Europe]," and is "highly respected."
😬 We must do better!
Shocked to see that @rtenews uses a map with Crimea not being a part of Ukraine in the video accompanying article about 🇷🇺 shadow fleet rte.ie/news/primetime… We believe that this is an honest mistake that will be fixed promptly. @jackiefox_

Special Kudos to @Bernd_Schulyok, @MW42522637 and @HorizonDefence for this incredible opportunity. Very proud to be a part of it!

One of the happiest memories I have is of national day on the Groote Markt in Bruges. To all my Belgian friends, I wish you a great day 🇧🇪♥️
Leve België! Vive la Belgique! Es lebe Belgien! Long live Belgium! CSDS is proud to call Belgium our home. Happy National Day 🇧🇪
Remember when people here ranted that Ukraine's brilliant Spiderweb operation would "provoke a devastating russian response"? Instead, it showed again: russia isn't invincible. Ukraine's resolve exposes russian weaknesses. russia can be defeated — and must be defeated.
De plus, parce que le Front National et ses partisans trouvent les mensonges russes très séduisants...

With news that @ElbridgeColby halted air defense missiles for Ukraine, it’s time for Ukraine to go back to striking Russian oil facilities. Screw em
Putin First. x.com/nickschifrin/s…
BREAKING: White House confirms it has halted weapons that Ukraine was scheduled to receive, including PAC3 Patriots, 155mm artillery rounds, GMLRS, Stinger, AIM-7, and Hellfire missiles. @AnnaKelly47 tells me: “This decision was made to put America’s interests first following a…
