Today, Russia hit the railway station in Dnipro. People were standing on the platform. Many dead and wounded. Among them are children. Medics continue to fight for human lives.

Russia deliberately hits passenger transport and places where civilians gather - stations, markets, churches, and schools.

Russia is waging a war against civilians. You never know who will be the next.

Spain is one of the main EU countries that welcomes the 800k Russians who got travel visas alone in 2025.
Who could have anticipated something like this though?
Russia is preparing for war in Europe, and they continue to be issued visas.

Spanish police have arrested a former Russian soldier after discovering an illegal weapons operation in Catalonia, near the French border.

Investigators uncovered a concealed workshop inside a rented approximately 25 kilometers from France. The facility contained 644 firearms, thousands of rounds of ammunition, silencers and weapons components.

The seized arsenal is estimated to be worth €5 million.

Angelina with her mom Inna.
Both were killed today by Russia.
They should have been alive and they would have been alive… if not for Russia’s war against Ukraine

George Orwell worked for the BBC for 2 years and didn’t particularly enjoy it. But at the end he told his boss that no one had ever asked him to broadcast anything he didn’t believe. I’ve now worked for it for 60 years, and can honestly say exactly the same thing.

Visitors to the US are on track to drop by almost two million year-on-year.

“We’re the only major country in the world losing visitation,” the head of the US Travel Association said. “It’s mind-boggling.”

From today’s Times: ‘Researchers at the University of Cambridge said that regardless of “what or how we read”, sitting down with a book is linked to improved health and problem solving. Benefits include lowering stress and reducing the risk of dementia, and span all types of reading, from comic books to classic novels or hefty non-fiction tomes.’

1. Prisoner swap
2. Mission by senior intelligence official to warn against escalation by Russia, eg in Baltics
3. New diplomatic opening
