The centre of Kherson was just hit with massive russian bombs. Imagine if this was any other city on earth, this would be global news. Tens of thousands of civilians still live here.

🇫🇷 Fatiguée de rester clouée à son canapé à regarder, impuissante, les flammes dévorer la Gironde, elle a finalement pris sa décision. Elle a enfilé ses chaussures, chargé des cages dans sa voiture et s’est rendue dans les zones évacuées. Au milieu des cendres et de la fumée, elle a commencé à recueillir tous les animaux abandonnés : chiens terrifiés, chats perdus, hérissons désorientés… Un simple geste qui a sauvé bien des vies.

Bumpy hasn't been in our care long, but he has already bonded quickly with his Keepers, Festus and Jackson. He peeks above the water to watch their comings and goings and loves to nestle between their feet. A forehead scratch is always well received too, thank you very much. In time, as with all the orphaned animals in our care, this dependence on his human caregivers for comfort will lessen. For now, while he's only just a month old, its vital to his progress.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents were given access to voter files in two counties in Texas and North Carolina, according to an Axios news report. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/ic…

Mientras se celebra el Mundial en EEUU, los agentes de la Gestapo de Trump, el ICE, andan secuestrando y electrocutando a la gente por las calles solo por parecer latino. Vean como torturaron a este hombre con un taser, aún siendo 5 contra 1... era un ciudadano estadounidense legal, que hacía de voluntario comunitario en un barrio latino. Solo imaginen que en Rusia, China o algún pais así enemigo de EEUU, se celebrara un mundial en estas condiciones, te lo contarían hasta con mensajes en avionetas.

Congress is trying to delist Gray Wolves through a backdoor. A rider in the Interior funding bill would strip federal protections and block judicial review—based on politics and not science. Tell your Rep to oppose this poison pill: TeamWolf.Org

Rescued at night from a septic pit – Zuri is the latest 🐘 addition to our Nursery herd. It's a miracle she was discovered, and in the nick-of-time, as the little submerged calf would not have survived the night. Once on dry land, she was quickly cleaned off and taken to our Voi stockades to rest. Next morning, we flew Zuri to Nairobi and three weeks on this chubby little miracle is finding her feet, surrounded by the love of adoring nannies. Zuri's full story is online, where you can join her journey from day one with an adoption: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/orphans/zuri

ICE tackle U.S. citizen—shoot him with taser after already pinned to ground. 4 agents hold the man face down—while 5th agent tazed him in the back. Another agent points a weapon at a witness. "Don't point that at me again," man says. "I don't feel safe," agent yells back. "It's whatever I say—Get back!" The man detained was a community volunteer with VC Defensa. Incident occurred in an area open to the public at the Ventura County Government Center in Ventura, California.

Unfortunately, the current level of supplies for our air defense does not allow us to intercept a significant share of missiles. Last night, there were hits. 130 people were injured. Tragically, 22 people were killed, including two children. My condolences to all those who have lost their loved ones. We know from intelligence that another large-scale strike may come as soon as tonight. All our partners together, and everyone in Europe, should continue working to ensure missiles for our air defense, as well as the systems, critical intelligence, and other things that help to save lives. It is crystal clear that Europe needs its own anti-ballistic system with sufficient volumes and strength to guarantee protection against any threat.

For weeks, Irish politicians have dodged questions about the refinery in Ireland supplying Russia’s war machine. So I tracked down government minister Niall Collins at a farming show. He refuses to back sanctions & his stance was worse than I expected. Avoidance.

They want to distract you with stories about Trump yelling at Netanyahu while, in the real world, Israel is destroying southern Lebanon.

The Israeli army has been bombing all over the south today; so much so that I can’t keep up. Here is the latest bombing in Burj eshmali, Tyre district.

More than 500 personnel of the State Emergency Service have been involved in dealing with the aftermath of Russia’s overnight attack on our cities and communities. The main strike was on Kyiv, where dozens of residential buildings and other purely civilian infrastructure were damaged again. Tragically, four people have been reported killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. At this moment, 38 people are in hospitals in the capital, and all of them are receiving the necessary care. In Dnipro, a search and rescue operation is ongoing at the site of a four-story apartment building. Part of the building was essentially demolished. Nine people were killed in this attack, including a child. Thirty-five people were injured in the city. The fate of six more people remains unknown. The search for them will continue for as long as necessary. The Russians also struck energy facilities in the Kharkiv region and critical infrastructure in Kharkiv. Kyiv, Mykolaiv, Zaporizhzhia, Poltava, Sumy, Chernihiv, and Khmelnytskyi regions also came under attack. In total, overnight Russia launched 656 attack drones and 73 missiles of various types at our people – ballistic, cruise, and anti-ship missiles. A large-scale attack and an absolutely clear statement from Russia: if Ukraine is not protected from ballistic and other missile strikes, these attacks will continue. Europe needs its own anti-ballistic defense so that this war can finally be brought to an end. And assistance from the United States in supplying missiles for Patriot systems is absolutely necessary. We are counting on the support of our partners and on effective responses to today’s attack. And I thank all Ukrainian men and women for not ignoring air raid alerts. Glory to Ukraine!

Wonderful, breaking news! Early this morning, ex-orphan Melia returned to introduce a brand new baby girl to Head Keeper Benjamin and the rest of the Ithumba team. Moon, as we’ve named her, is Melia’s second baby. She is a lovely little elephant, bold and brimming with character. More to come, but we wanted to share the news in real time. Supporters like you make these stories possible: enabling us to rescue orphans like Melia, dedicate years to their recovery, and help them reclaim their place in the wild – paving the way for a new generation of wild elephants, like baby Moon.

A father and his young daughter lie dying having been hit with a precision missile (US made) by Israel. The ambulance crew arrives to try help. Israel then hits them with a missile. All on camera. Proven. War crimes. Yet our leaders still arm them & support them. Why?

A United States Senator got pepper-sprayed for trying to conduct oversight at a detention facility where hunger strikes are taking place. If ICE is willing to use force against elected officials and protestors asking questions, imagine what’s happening behind closed doors to everyone else. I stand with everyone demanding accountability at Delaney Hall and calling for its immediate closure.

Ben Gvir says Israel will not “allow” Trump to make deal with Iran 🤔

This is Nikopol, a city in Ukraine where civilians are being hunted by drones. I investigated how russians are now launching those drones FROM Europe's largest nuclear power plant at the other side of the river. Russian aggression puts the entire planet at risk of nuclear disaster, it doesn't just stop at the borders of Ukraine. Since the Zaporizhzhia NPP was stormed, theres been almost zero international news coverage of the site, yet every day the situation deteriorates. The same soviet system of lies that led to the Chornobyl disaster is now running a nuclear facility twice the size. Every single environmental agency needs to start calling out the russian threat to our planet. The plant is now running on diesel generators that can fail at any moment. They have already failed 15 times since the full-scale invasion. This is Chornobyl on steroids. Whatever your views on the war in Ukraine, a nuclear disaster here doesn’t respect borders. It doesn’t care about your politics. What's happening in Nikopol is a warning.

Another russian strike on a residential building. This time — Mykolaivka, Donetsk region. Four civilians murdered. This isn’t war. This is the systematic extermination of Ukrainian civilians. Stop pretending you don’t see it.
