Sometimes I see this misunderstanding and I'd like to clarify it. When Ukrainian say "russian drones/shahed drones/iranian drones," we don't mean this kind of drones:

We mean THIS kind of drones that can carry a warhead and are essentially used as missiles:

While they're not as large, destructive and difficult to intercept as, say, ballistic missiles, they can still cause significant damage. Russia launches them at us every night, but most are successfully shot down.

I mean, why wouldn't russia bomb Chornobyl NPP, after the literal ABSENCE of any reaction from the rest of the world to it destroying the Kakhovka Dam? They know there will be no reaction now, as well. They know the rest of the world is totally fine with it doing literally ANYTHING.

Why wouldn't russia escalate its violence?

This world is literally not worth the effort that it takes to live in it.

This picture would have been of the Taras Shevchenko monument in Kharkiv. Many objects of historical/cultural significance all over Ukraine are covered by tarps in an attempt to preserve them amidst russia’s constant waves of attacks.

This is what Ukrainians have to do to protect their heritage from erasure by russia. As of today, February 13th,2025, russia has damaged/destroyed 1333 cultural heritage sites and 2185 cultural infrastructure facilities in Ukraine since the full-scale invasion (According to Ministry of Culture and Strategic Communications of Ukraine).

💔 This is what Chasiv Yar looks like now.

A city in which about 13,000 people lived before the beginning of the Russian aggression.

❗The Russians hit a houses in Zolochiv, Kharkiv region, with a guided aerial bomb.

‼️Yesterday evening, the Russians bombed the residential sector in Donetsk region. Nine aerial bombs were dropped on Kostyantynivka, one more on Kramatorsk.

In Kramatorsk, Russian invaders killed a 52-year-old man and injured 12 more people. 5 people were injured in Kostyantynivka.

As a result of the attack, 69 apartment buildings and 47 private buildings, infrastructure facilities, cars, etc. were damaged.

‼️Russians in Pokrovsk used a drone to strike a civilian car with the words "people" written on its hood. One woman was killed and two others were injured, the Donetsk Oblast Prosecutor's Office reported.

Those Cossack graves are 300+ years old.

On this day, 10 years ago, russian occupation forces, namely the "Oplot" brigade, in an act of terrorism, fired a Grad missile at a Ukrainian checkpoint near Volnovakha when there was a passenger bus. Twelve Ukrainian civilians were killed, and 18 were injured. Russia never admitted guilt or paid for the crimes, the consequences and continuation of which we see today.

This story is more personal for me because I was on that same bus earlier that day, heading from Donetsk city to Volnovakha. If, for some reason, I’d decided to return that day, I could have been one of the victims.

I had to pass by the remnants of the bus a few days later, which was horrifying. Subconsciously, I was expecting this to happen again, only this time to the bus I was in. It didn’t, and I’m still here. Although drones flying above my roof remind me every day that it could be any of us, any time, as long as russia exists.

It wasn’t even the only terrorist act by Russia that felt too close to me. But I’ve talked about this before.

Anyhow, later they completely isolated the russian-controlled (annexed) part of the Donetsk oblast from the rest of Ukraine, banning public transport (like these buses) at first and then essentially banning even smaller private mini-buses, allowing only cars through the checkpoints (to profit from bribes). Then, when covid happened, they banned all civilian movement through the checkpoints, allowing it only with special passes that were impossible to get. So Ukrainians, born and raised in Ukraine, to travel from one Ukrainian (illegally occupied by Russia) city to another, would have to go through russia... if they could.

The world didn't care then - when they were killing us, separating families, isolating us, re-educating, forcing us to get russian citizenships, etc. Now, ten years later, they’re doing the same things on a much bigger scale. If Ukraine falls, they will move forward. They will never stop.

❗Russian occupiers shelled Kramatorsk, Donetsk region, hit a nine-story building, destroyed several apartments on the upper floors, said Pavlo Dyachenko, head of the communication department of the Donetsk region police.

Five wounded - three pensioners and two children - were admitted to the hospital, said Ihor Yeskov, the head of the communications department of the Kramatorsk City Military Administration.
