I first saw ‘double tap’ attacks during the siege of Sarajevo. A shell or missile hits a building, then as the rescuers arrive, a second one hits. Much used by Russia in Ukraine. Western leaders are demanding to know if the IDF gave orders to do this at the Nasser Hospital.

Friday will be 18 months since the 115yr old Electric Cinema was shut by Glenbrook Property. They want to demolish it for a tower 🤦🏼♂️ Birmingham! Email Glenbrook. Tell 'em we want our Electric back! [email protected]; [email protected]
Polish cars of different vintages at the Museum of Engineering and Technology in Kraków
New beer to try at #Kolanko in Kraków.
I'm in Marek Kondrat's wine bar in Kraków Very nice it is too!
Seen today in Tatranska Lomnica, a 1926 Tatra (in a glass box - why us it not on the road?). The steering wheel on the right hand side is a reminder that Czechoslovakia drove on the left until 1938 (as did Austria until 1936)
He was team manager on the 1989 Ashes tour. His interview with The Guardian at the start of the tour was one of the most interesting and educational I have ever seen. Not just a fine player but a deep thinker about our game who will be much missed. RIP

Ruzzia erased the history of Crimea so “well” that even people in Europe forgot about the existence of the Crimean Tatars Every time I talk about Crimea, I have to start by explaining who we are It should’ve changed after 2014. But it didn’t

The Russian Embassy in Warsaw is staging an exhibit about Mariupol's destruction by Kyiv and "return to peaceful life...from the ruins" under Moscow's rule. The destruction and spectacle of Mariupol's "regeneration" is a prime example of Russian fascism ⬇️
I think I can empathise with the man at The Oval in 1882 who bit his way through his umbrella handle. Nerve shredding! #ENGvIND
Paying my respects to Ozzy today
We are privileged to have been alive at the same time as Joe Root. #ENGvIND

The birthplace of Black Sabbath Closed for 11 yrs by developers The UK's oldest working cinema Closed for 18 months by developers trying to knock it down The UK's first Rep Theatre Fighting on One Street Station Street Should be owned by Brummies. For Brummies. Forever.
Quite right to honour Ozzy. Now maybe @BhamCtyCouncil can take steps to protect Station Street from unwanted redevelopment and save The Crown. That WOULD be honouring Ozzy's legacy.
