Arestovich was asked about the Azovstal capitulation. He said I cannot comment at this time, the president (elensky) will make a statement tonight

🇸🇰Slovak police detained the former head of the Supreme Court and ex-Minister of Justice Stefan Garabin.

He is accused, attention, of "expressing approval of the actions of the Russian army in Ukraine."

This is reported by the Bratislava TV channel Markiza with reference to the national criminal agency.

It is not yet known whether the ex-Minister of Justice will be detained or he will be released home, the Slovak police add.

🇹🇷️Turkey cannot agree to Finland and Sweden joining NATO.

"This is impossible, let them not be offended," Erdogan said.

These countries' support for the Kurds is to blame, Turkish Foreign Minister Cavusoglu said earlier.

Well. Quite clear whom the "service women" were 'servicing' I'd say.

"For today, everything is over - the wounded from Azov were taken under guard at the hospital in Novoazovsk (by the way, they also bandaged me after the wound, very good doctors), the rest of the blood-captured prisoners were taken to Yelenovka, the interrogation will begin in the morning.
Tomorrow, from four in the morning, ours will again continue to take prisoner the rest of the inmates from Azovstal. In total, as I was told, 2227 people are blocked there. There are even pregnant servicemen (women). The intrigue of tomorrow is the fate of Kalina and Volyn..."
