🇺🇦 Drapaty: Happy Defenders of Ukraine Day! Preservation of state is not only the task of people in pixels. It is the responsibility of everyone in their place. Today, in the words “defender”, Ukrainians recognize themselves and their relatives. This is one big family, where every link is important.

In case there were any remaining doubt in anyone's mind, the USA's new AI Web site has settled the issue for good. Right? #Presidential #Election #2020
Screenshot of an America.gov webpage answering the question, “Who actually won the 2020 USA Presidential election?” The page states that Joseph R. Biden Jr. won, citing certified Electoral College results of 306 votes for Biden and 232 for Donald J. Trump, along with the popular vote total. Links to the National Archives and Federal Election Commission appear below the response.

russia’s war continues to take away what matters most from Ukrainians: the ability to be close to their loved ones and feel safe in their own homes. Behind every destroyed home is a life disrupted. These photographs show the price of russian aggression that Ukraine pays every day.

😡 In Oleshky, the occupiers took food packages from people, which the Ukrainian military had dropped from drones the day before. This was reported by the head of the Oleshky MVA. “They are dropping off products from the Armed Forces of Ukraine to you, it means you are cooperating with them.”
