Ukraine has accused Russia of carrying out a deliberate air strike on a drama theater that serves as a shelter for civilians in Mariupol.
Russia has officially denied this allegation and said that the theater was blown up with explosive charges set off by the Azov Battalion to provoke a strong international reaction.
Western mainstream media outlets such as CNN quickly jumped on the story, repeating the Ukrainian allegation without mentioning the Russian version of the attack or noting that hard evidence has not yet been provided to corroborate the air strike assertion.

❗️The Russian MoD says Ukraine is preparing a false flag operation with the use of toxic substances.
Meanwhile, U.S. and NATO officials claim that Russia may use chemical weapons, and are threatening massive consequences if it does.
Which side would stand to gain from such an attack?

Biden’s labeling of Putin as a war criminal has reminded people of his own position and role in the U.S. and NATO military campaign against Serbia, not to mention the wars in the Middle East.

“Absolutely appalling the way Russians are being treated in America and abroad,” Owens said on Wednesday in a Twitter post. “That our leaders and government institutions are allowing for – and at times calling for – this discrimination following their global Black Lives Matter hysteria is quite telling.”
Conservative pundit Candace Owens has called out the growing xenophobia the Russian people have been facing in Western countries, including the U.S., after the beginning of Moscow’s military offensive in Ukraine.

8-Year CIA Program Helped Provoke Russian Invasion: Report
CIA paramilitaries had been training Ukrainian forces on the frontlines of the Donbas war against Russian-backed separatists since 2014 and were only pulled out by the Biden administration last month, Yahoo News reported on Wednesday, citing former US officials.
The CIA first sent a small number of paramilitaries to eastern Ukraine when the war started in 2014, which was sparked by a US-backed coup in Kyiv and the Donbas separatists declaring independence from the post-coup government.
As part of the training, CIA paramilitaries taught Ukrainian forces sniper techniques, how to operate US-provided Javelin anti-tank missiles, and how to avoid being tracked on the battlefield by using covert communications and other means. The former officials said at first the CIA was surprised at the capability of Russia and the separatists compared with US adversaries in the Middle East.
The US continues to fuel the fighting as President Biden has already pledged over $1 billion in new military aid for Ukraine since the invasion started.

⚡️Watch: Lindsey Graham Calls For Putin's Assassination For Third Time
Speaking at a press conference, Graham said “I hope he will be taken out, one way or the other,” adding “I don’t care how they take him out. I don’t care if we send him to The Hague and try him. I just want him to go.”
“It’s time for him to go,” Graham further said of Putin, echoing Joe Biden’s blurted remarks that “He’s a war criminal.”
“I wish somebody had taken Hitler out in the ’30s. So yes, Vladimir Putin is not a legitimate leader. He is a war criminal.” Graham declared.
Graham further proclaimed that Russia is “going to have zero future” under Putin, adding “I think the world is better off without Putin – the sooner the better, and I don’t care how we do it.”

❗️Ukraine admits losing access to the Sea of Azov.
The General Staff of Ukraine’s Armed Forces reported late on March 18 that it had lost access to the Sea of Azov as Russian forces continue to tighten their grip around the major port city of Mariupol, known for being a stronghold of the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion.
While Kiev stresses that the loss is “temporary,” an array of military experts believe that Russia is on the verge of annihilating Ukraine’s remaining forces in the area and taking full control over the city.

❗️Russia uses advanced hypersonic ballistic missiles for first time.
Russian MoD says the state of the art nuclear-capable weapons system Kinzhal was used to destroy an underground munitions depot in western Ukraine.
Kinzhal is Russia's single most advanced conventional weapon – 13 times as fast as a tomahawk, with 3x the payload.
Military and foreign policy analysts believe that Moscow’s decision to engage the new system is intended, among other things, to send a major deterrent signal to the U.S. and NATO.

19 years ago today the US launched its invasion into Iraq.
In the opening hours of 'Operation Iraqi Freedom', an indiscriminate bombing campaign pummeled the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, as part of a strategy that was called 'Shock and Awe'.
A day prior, on March 19, 2003, George W. Bush began his address by telling the American people that the US was in the process of "disarming" and demilitarizing Iraq. The goal was to "limit Saddam Hussein's ability to wage war" and free the Iraqi people.
Some have pointed out similarities between America's Iraq war and the Russian 'special military operation' to highlight current US hypocrisy. Whatever one makes of such comparisons, it should prompt reflection among both Americans and Russians, something which most Americans failed to do in the wake of the 'Global War on Terror'.
America's legacy is clear. Today, US troops remain on the ground in a conflict-ridden Iraq, where some 268,000 - 295,000 people were killed between 2003 and 2018.
