Gonzalo Lira (@GonzaloLira1968): "Read this thread and the paper it's highlighting. The Maidan Square massacre was always suspicious, from the moment it happened. Here's a careful analysis of what likely happened."

Ivan Katchanovski (@I_Katchanovski): "My paper "The Maidan Massacre in #Ukraine: Revelations from Trials and Investigation" is now available without registration at SSRN. In spite of overwhelming publicly available evidence, this mass killing in #Ukraine is still misrepresented. #Ukrainian 1/ https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4048494"

"Maidan massacre trials and investigations have revealed various evidence that four killed and several dozen wounded policemen and at least the absolute majority of 49 killed and 157 wounded Maidan protesters were massacred by snipers in Maidan-controlled buildings and areas." 2/"

"Such evidence includes testimonies of the absolute majority of wounded protesters, several dozens of prosecution witnesses, dozens of defense witnesses, and 14 self-admitted members of #Maidan #snipers groups."3/https://redirect.invidious.io/watch?v=sx9P7IlU0ow&ab_channel=IvanKatchanovski"

Turkey to boycott NATO drill – media

Turkey will not participate in NATO drills amid escalating tensions with Greece, Turkish media reported on Saturday, citing security sources. Ankara was scheduled to send its F-16 Fighting Falcon jets to the annual ‘Tiger Meet’ drill, which will be held at Araxos Air Base in western Greece from May 9 to May 22.

According to reports, Turkish Air Force Command considered that the wording used by Greece in technical documentation relating to the drills was contrary to international law and demanded that it be changed, but Greece refused to do so.
