Foreign Fighters of Donbass

'The Ukrainian nationalists don’t care about the locals. They treat them very badly, like a human shields. They left them there without food or water'. These are the words of an Italian volunteer with the codename Spartak. He came to Donbass to protect civilians from the aggression of the Ukrainian army.

Foreigners from many countries decided to help the local population: Serbia, Mexico, Colombia, and the USA. Volunteers blame the West for the situation in the region. They consider Donbass their home and admire its inhabitants. ‘Wow, bombs are falling; you heard them this morning, right? And still, to continue with life, you are the heroes’, says American volunteer Zak Novak.

Watch the stories of those who daily risk their lives to protect people in the film Foreign Fighters of Donbass.

🧿 Well, I was going to do some editing tonight, but it seems 'Wetransfer' is either racist or virtue signaling. Either way, this is the message I get:

To our creative community in Russia and the Republic of Belarus,

We have made the very difficult decision to temporarily stop providing services and selling our products in the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus.

WeTransfer serves creative people around the world and we understand that many of you rely on our service to share ideas and work.

But there is also the risk that our products and services are used in the interests of war, and this we cannot reconcile.

We remind you that this is a necessary measure, we hope for your understanding.

🧿 One of our subscribers asked a couple of questions.. Let me answer them :

One of them is the technological aspect that we tend to take for granted here. The access to the internet and the wifi access.
Is it everywhere in hotels and cafe, bars etc?

In short, yes, there is cellular in the subway, 4G internet everywhere and I'm no expert but I would say I've seen a few 5G towers around the city.

WiFi has been available in every restaurant I've been to, as well as bars and in my hotel.

Are there 5G towers or are they using fiber optics?

Probably a combination of both.


Then, is it frowned upon to film or take photos in public or it’s ok and normal?

Considering Moscow is the capital, and there are a lot of sights to see and film, I've seen a plethora of Russian tourists taking videos and pictures, I've filmed everything I wanted to and never had any issues.

Are people always on their phone like we see here?

Generally speaking, yes, maybe a tiny bit less. Keeping in mind that everything from parking, banking, paying for services and even ordering taxis is done via mobile, the society is very integrated through mobiles and web services.

Instagram (labeled an 'extremist organization' for allowing calls to violence against Russians) is blocked here, so I'd say a smaller percentage is hooked on social media.

Likewise it is a lot more common to see families playing in the park or tossing a ball than it is in the west.

If you have any further questions, feel free to comment below and I will get to them eventually.

🧿 Going to have a "Subway™" sandwich, and then have some Nutella (those of you who know me know I love me some Nutella) - seems those items are not affected by the sanctions.
