A brief report on Armyansk: there is no water or electricity. People have set up generators, but there is no gasoline either.

Human-caused climate change is increasing the risk of hotter temperatures, including these dangerous heat waves. Watch the entire distribution shift to the right. I'm afraid these headlines about record heat are only going to become more common. 🌡️ Visualization by svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/5613/

"Mom, I signed a contract. They promised drones, admission, money - said everything would be fine. Instead, they sent me on a f*cking assault." A wounded Russian soldier from occupied Donetsk says he signed up for a drone unit but was sent on a meat assault instead.

"Gasoline wars" is probably the best way to describe what's happening at gas stations across Russia right now. After 26 years of Putin's rule, Russia is bankrupt - a corrupt, impoverished country that is running out of fuel. It is hated across the civilized world.

SIKORSKI: I'd like to point out the difference in the targets that the two sides select. Russians hit an 11th-century monastery in Kyiv. And remember, in the 11th century, Moscow was still a forest. Ukrainians hit an oil refinery in Moscow, which is a legitimate military target.

KALLAS: Moscow has no intention to end the war. Overnight Russian attacks killed civilians in Ukraine and damaged Kyiv's historical cathedral. This direct assault on Ukraine’s 1,000-year-old heritage also exposed absurdity of Russia’s claims to be the defender of Christianity.

They will ultimately lose, just as Orbán did. Yet many still try to befriend Putin's wallets and close their eyes to what is really happening. I want to thank everyone who, nevertheless, continues to fight for their peoples, for Europe's interests, and for security in Europe with Ukraine.

So, you have to choose whether you want to have Ukraine integrated into European defense industry and European Union, rather than Russia invading. Because I've never thought that Ukraine would be integrated into European Union via security and defense road. And it looks like we will be there.
