Scary moments in Kyiv this afternoon.
A car smashed into the lobby of the Okean (Ocean) Plaza shopping mall in the city centre.
Fortunately, no-one was hurt.

A few weeks ago, I wrote about a group of Ukrainians stranded on the Russian-Georgia border.
A number have just called off their hunger strike after consultations and promises to help from Ukraine's Foreign Ministry
The problem has been assuring transit from Georgia to Moldova

A little earlier I wrote about overnight damage in Odesa, but leading Ukraine media outfit RBK says it was much worse.
It says that Russia did not just strike a gas filling station, but rather the SOCAR oil depot and FOUR employees were hurt, not just one security guard.

The meeting between Trump and Putin will go ahead next week, a White House official confirms.
However they couldn't say the day... oh and they couldn't say the location... and they did not know if Zelenskyy would be there.
Methinks someone in the WH just watched Fox news😂😂

I saw a good metaphor for Russia's economy in the terrorist state today.
Going downhill at gathering speed and plunging off the cliff.
Except it's real life and three people in the van needed to be rescued from Lake Baikal near Irkutsk.

A Russian drone has hit a "non residential" building in Sumy.
The council says there are no injuries, but the roof caught fire. #StopRussia

I would ignore any speculation about the RU-USA meeting.
For example Russia said the meeting could be within a week and today FoxNews "sources" say it could be at the end of next week!
They claim the venue could be Rome. Or the UAE. Or maybe Switzerland. Or Hungary.
Fox knows nowt! #FactsNotFox!

Oh those poor Russians.
As their terrorist regime murders Ukrainian civilians, holidaymakers in Sochi had to leave the beach in the warzone because of a drone alert.
"Midday and it would seem everyone's heading for lunch. But no. Drones are 30km away and we're kicked off the beach"

A farewell ceremony is held in Kyiv for journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna. murdered in Russian captivity.
She disappeared 2 years ago. Within 2 months she was dead.
Russia tried to hide tortureh by not releasing her body, removing organs & finally throwing it in with soldiers bodies in an exchange.

It's strongly suspected that Ukraine hit the Russian air base at Millerovo in Rostov oblast.
Heavy smoke can still be seen this morning, so oil storage could have been hit at the camp. Russia's official version is a gasoline tanker caught fire.
