Value your life, the best of us pay the highest price for it
A small chestnut tree sprouted on my father's grave, just like in Donetsk, at home, just like in Selydove, our second home.
"To Hrynka's friend from his comrades who are still in captivity"
It is impossible to comprehend 💔
My Gen Z keeps lossing the best people. They're even younger than me💔😭
Honor.
I wrote about Daniil Safonov [my sister's old friend from Donetsk] on the bloody anniversary of his slaughter on May 2nd. I recommend you to read about this Hero who from my hometown.
Don't be indifferent. Please hear our cry out to the world, keep spreading our voices, and donate to our army and combat medics (savelife.in.ua, prytulafoundation.org, Serhii Sternenko, hospitallers.life, ptahy.vidchui.org, and u24.gov.ua).

Occupant suspected of killing civilians in Bucha "adopted" a child from Ukraine
russian media report that the parents of a 7-year-old boy were allegedly killed in Donetsk region, and he and other children were allegedly taken out of the shelling in 2022.
Before being "adopted," the child lived in the Velikolutsk orphanage in the Pskov region. After the boy was placed in the occupiers' family, he was immediately sent to a "correctional school to catch up on his knowledge."
The name of the occupier who "adopted" the boy from Ukraine is Viktor Filonov. Russian propaganda has already stated that he plans to raise the boy to be a "patriot of Russia."

🇺🇦 Чи знали ви, що Донецьк і Донбас як промисловий регіон було засновано валлійським підприємцем?
🏴 Oeddech chi'n gwybod bod Donetsk a Donbas fel rhanbarth diwydiannol wedi'u canfod gan entrepreneur o Gymru?
🏴 Did you know that Donetsk and Donbas as an industrial region were found by a Welsh entrepreneur?
🇺🇦 Джон Юз (Г'юз) приїхав у Дикий Степ в 1870х та відкрив кільках металургійних мануфактур, навколо яких виросло місто Юзівка, яке зараз ми знаємо як Донецьк.
Металургійний завод був доволі успішним, туди з Уельсу приїздили працювати висококваліфіковані фахівці разом зі своїми родинами. Однак після більшовицької революції завод було націоналізовано, а більшість валлійських робітників повернулися назад до Уельсу.
🏴 John Hughes came to the Wild Steppe in the 1870s and established metal works, later Hughesovka (Yuzovka), now known as Donetsk, was formed around the ironworks.
The ironworks used to be quite successful, highly qualified engineers with their families had been coming from Wales to work here. But after Bolshevik revolution the manufacture was nationalized and many Welsh workers had to come back to Wales.
🏴 Daeth John Hughes i'r Paith Gwyllt yn y 1870au a sefydlwyd gweithfeydd metel, yn ddiweddarach Hughesofka (Iwsofka), a adwaenir bellach fel Donetsk, o amgylch y gwaith haearn.
Roedd y gwaith haearn yn arfer bod yn eithaf llwyddiannus, roedd peirianwyr tra chymwys gyda’u teuluoedd wedi bod yn dod o Gymru i weithio yma. Ond ar ôl chwyldro'r Bolsieficiaid gwladolwyd y gweithgynhyrchu a bu'n rhaid i lawer o weithwyr Cymreig ddychwelyd i Gymru.

A girl on the last picture - John Hughes'granddaughter wearing supposedly russian peasant costume. It doesn't look like any russian folk costume and I don't know to which culture it actually belongs. Looks like the Chuvash one, but Chuvash in Eastern Ukraine?? I'm confused 😬

Turkish revolutionary musical group Grup Yorum reports from Donbass:
"After Donetsk and Lugansk declared independence, rocket fire by imperialist-backed neo-Nazi gangs and the Ukrainian army directed directly at the residents of these regions has never ceased.
"From 2014 to 2022, about 14,000 ordinary people were killed.
"We support the people of Donbass, who are resisting the imperialism of the US and EU and its accomplice, the fascist Ukrainian state."

My fellow Americans seem to forget that the United States illegally overthrew the Kingdom of Hawaii, threw the Queen in jail, annexed the land, and gave the Native Hawaiians the same treatment that was done with the Native American tribes. Today, they are complaining about Vladimir Putin, and thought every region in the ex-Soviet countries was going to be okay being disconnected from the Russian mainland. He doesn't suppress the Ukrainian or Georgian language. His country isn't the one with the most military bases around the world. He prefers a multi-polar world unlike the uniparty that exists in the United States of America.
