Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 15/09/2025This is funny & uncanny at the same time. Russia unveiling a monument to Felix Dzerzhinsky, one of the worst murderers of Christians from the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution - to the tune of “Jesus Christ, superstar!” #StandWithUkraine 1016141 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Remember that night when Iran attacked Israel and when NATO jets were collectively shooting the drones and missiles down? It’s every night in Ukraine. Only more drones. And no NATO jets. #StandWithUkraine 315556 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 10/09/2025Volodymyr Mykolayenko, former mayor of Kherson who refused to be exchanged in favour of other 🇺🇦 PoW and who was released only now, 3 years later, tells his story. How he was beaten “almost daily, except on Easter”. And that’s all you need to know about Russia’s “Christianity”. 110627 0

Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 10/08/202511 years ago, 🇺🇦 Olena Kulish & Volodymyr Alyokhin got executed mafia-style in #Donbas. “Guilty” of supplying 🇺🇦 soldiers with food. He was in IT. She was a popular radio host & animal rights activist. Russians killed her 6 dogs too. Just for the fun of it. #RussianWarCrimes 719291 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 09/08/2025You give me huge chunk of your territory, including major cities. And I will graciously stop killing you. Maybe. For now. Sincerely, Russian Federation Permanent member of the UN Security Council 16344104 0

Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 22/07/2025My sincere gratitude to President @ZelenskyyUA for appointing me Ukraine’s new ambassador to South Africa. It’s an honour & challenge in so many ways. Diplomacy is my life-long passion & the world’s best job which I gladly embrace again. #StandWithUkraine 713311 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 03/07/2025This a-cappella rendition of a popular Ukrainian love song became an instant hit. In all my years on this earth I haven’t seen 🇺🇦 culture as vibrant as it is now. #StandWithUkraine 15389101 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 29/06/2025It seemed like a good idea - very Christian and (musically) very Austrian. Yet Russian “Christians” smugly refused. They didn’t want to hear anything Ukrainian. I think of this story every time someone says “Russia got provoked”. #StandWithUkraine 0746 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 29/06/2025🇷🇺 delegation was headed by Bishop Ilarion Alfeyev, their chief diplomat, a known theologian, and a hobby composer. During the visit the Catholic Church had an idea: why not surprise the guest with rendition of one of his musical pieces performed by the choir of 🇺🇦 Greek Catholic Church in Vienna. ⬇️ 1484 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 29/06/2025An illustration to put russian smugness in perspective. Somewhere around 2018, during my time as 🇺🇦ambassador in Austria, I was informed of contacts between Catholic Church & 🇷🇺 Orthodoxy. Catholics were doing the Christian thing: reaching out a friendly hand, trying to smooth out existing problems. ⬇️ 27820 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 14/06/2025Without too many words. 🇷🇺: You kill PoWs, don’t you? 🇺🇦: We ain’t you. #StandWithUkraine 123354 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Watching them, I wonder if each one charges into the assault thinking they’ll be the one to survive and get rich. But then our guys hit them, and the stats report: another five down, dead.” 2383 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him!) gave an interesting take on human stupidity & greed: “The Day of Judgment won’t come until the Euphrates parts, revealing a mountain of gold. People will fight over it, & out of every hundred, 99 will die. Yet each will think: Maybe I’ll be the one to survive! 1384 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025They come to take and devour our resources, to populate our land with themselves. While the swarm’s leaders try to explain why they attack & kill us, the lower ranks just want to enrich themselves by murdering & looting. 1377 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Their authorities gave them permission, so it’s fine. Without hesitation, they’d wear your dress and eat from your plate because their czar and church blessed it. 1418 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025You came to kill our children to raise yours? Silence. Eyes down. But that’s the reality. They’d calmly kill us and our children, take our homes, sleep in our beds, even wear our clothes. They don’t see it as repulsive or wrong. 14412 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025When I spoke to 🇷🇺 PoWs, they all said they wanted money from Putin’s regime to improve their financial situation. Not one mentioned ideological motives, belief in higher values, or a lofty goal. Just loans, debts, mortgages, poverty, the need to raise kids. 24014 0

Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025My philosophical and theological training pushes my mind to make sense of why this conditional Homo erectus (because I can’t organically call them Homo sapiens, seeing no rationality in their actions) climbs over the corpses of their swarm to certain death, amid ruins resembling a Martian landscape. 1376 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025My philosophical education stops me from seeing this routine through a mathematician’s eyes, simply noting: minus one, minus five, minus forty. 2374 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025But with some insane persistence. The individual dissolves, becoming part of the swarm, where the death of a few doesn’t even register. I can’t explain why they keep coming, even knowing we’ll kill them. 1365 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025This differs from Soviet Marshal Zhukov’s meat grinder assaults only in that they now attack in smaller groups, not to capture kilometers, but to take a single position of a few square meters. Day after day, methodically—wave after wave, if lose ground, they fall back, if anyone’s left to fall back. 1347 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025This society is a swarm of locusts. Their purpose is to push forward no matter what, seizing new territories. Every day, they advance in small groups of 3-5, climbing over the corpses of those who, hours earlier, stormed the same position. No sense, no reason, no success, just piling bodies. 1388 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025A stunning account on how #RussianArmy fights this war - from Saïd Ismagilov, Ukraine’s supreme mufti who has been fighting for Ukraine for the last three years. Thread 🧵 613052 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 19/05/2025Russians started what was supposed their Ukraine blitzkrieg by bombing Kyiv and other 🇺🇦 cities at 4am - just like the Nazis in 1941. They got stopped 19 miles away from Kyiv - just like the Nazis 19 miles from Moscow. History does rhyme. #StandWithUkraine 312430 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 04/05/2025The best of 🇺🇦 world record holder Yaroslava Mahuchikh. Keep it up, Yara! So proud of you! #StandWithUkraine 822517 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 03/05/2025Overnight, for the first time ever, a fighter jet got shot down by a sea drone. Ukraine‘s another “for the first time ever”. Bye-bye, 🇷🇺 SU-30! #StandWithUkraine 310412 0

Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 26/04/2025They were a family of three. Oleksandr, a war vet, his wife Anna, and their 1.5 month old baby girl. On Wednesday, russia‘s North-Korea-made missile destroyed their Kyiv home and killed Anna. #StandWithUkraine 1521285 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 24/04/2025Kyiv today. Ukrainian kids waiting for their friend to be rescued from under the rubble. He didn’t survive. #StandWithUkraine 581372533 0

Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 24/04/20256 ballistic missiles and 6 cruise missiles have attacked Kyiv so far - plus an undisclosed number of Iranian-Russian “shahed” drones. More incoming. FU, Russia! #StandWithUkraine 69334 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 18/04/2025First, You seriously comparing death of thousands of civilians in one place to death of thousands of civilians in another? Second, Just in Mariupol the civilian death toll was at least 30 thousand. 040 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 18/04/2025#Zakharova: it was a “high-precision military strike on a restaurant “Magellan” in #Sumy where a military meeting with international instructors took place”. Right. Except it wasn’t high-precision, there’s no such restaurant in Sumy & you scumbags hit civilians on their way to church. #RussiaLies 1117640 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 17/04/2025Ukraine carries to grave the victims of russia’s Palm Sunday “mistake”. Father, mother and son. The family was on their way to church. They put a soccer ball into the son’s casket. The boy loved soccer. #StandWithUkraine #Sumy 24775243 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 13/04/2025Her name was Olena. A Russian missile killed her today in 🇺🇦 Sumy. One of 34 dead (so far). #StandWithUkraine 28643210 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 11/03/2025Ukraine is “Live free or die”. Ukraine is “Don’t tread on me”. Ukraine stands for what US and free world once stood for. #StandWithUkraine 210121 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 06/03/2025During the Holocaust, there were those who ratted the Jews out, those who saved them - and those who saved them only as long as the Jews paid. And then they ratted them out. They probably said things like “Why prolong the inevitable?” And “What is your endgame, anyways?” 18916 0

Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 04/03/2025It’s so incredible to see people carrying “Live Free or Die” and “Don’t tread on me” signs not support Ukraine - the one country going all the way through for the very same principles. #StandWithUkraine 38615 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 03/03/2025What’s this urge with some people to explain Ukraine to Ukrainians? Especially if you’ve never been to Ukraine and know nothing about it. Is there a medical term for that? #StandWithUkraine 118712 0
Olexander Scherba @olexscherba.bsky.social · 01/03/2025The world’s anti-Americanism was growing for decades. Yet a number of countries defied the trend and remained pro-US. Ukraine… Canada… EU... UK… And now… Now it’s as if someone goes over the list of America’s friends. And strikes them off, one by one. #StandWithUkraine 714121 0
