🙏 Kostiantynivka, Donetsk region.
Russian troops boast about saving local residents by dropping KABs on their homes. There are still about a thousand civilians in the city, hiding in basements.

The total amount of contributions amounted to $ 4.3 billion, of which almost $ 1.5 billion in December alone. Thanks to this, eight assistance packages have already been formed and two more are currently being filled. We thank everyone who helped Ukraine this year and will support it in 2026.

On the last day of the year, another cable damaged in the Gulf of Finland.
The Finnish Border Guard reports that a ship has been taken into custody.
The incident is not good news. The Finnish response is.
We've not seen the last of these suspicious cable cuts.

I don't begrudge Vance et al seeking to prioritise Asia over Europe. I'd make same choice in their shoes. But what's happened is not a prioritisation (we see a new chimerical long war in the Americas), it's a chaotic & short-termist approach to Ukraine, and a needles diplomatic war on Euro allies.
Yet more evidence in the NYT long read on Ukraine that JD Vance, a heartbeat away from the US presidency and probable 2028 Republican presidential nominee, would be a disaster for European security. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

In occupied Mariupol, Russia has reopened the so-called “restored” Drama Theatre.
This is not reconstruction. This is an attempt to erase a war crime.

This dancing is on top of the theater in Mariupol where hundreds of children were sheltered and killed by Russians. They rebuilt the theater and are hosting parties.

I can endorse the comments quoted here, to the effect that this lady seems to have been quite extraordinarily bad at appearing innocent. She approached me after an event where she was listed as “UN ECOSCO“, with a pitch so transparently dodgy that even I said nope and gave it a stiff ignoring.

Seriously, though: it is a source of enduring frustration that several times a week I get a call from media wanting to talk about “Russian hybrid warfare“ as something new they have just discovered, while this book was mostly about all of this stuff happening in the previous decade.
