💥💥💥 In response to recent Ukrainian attacks, notably on Crimea, Russia is currently carrying out mass, co-ordinated strikes on military objects, and installations across Ukraine. Some damage to civilian infrastructure has been caused by Ukrainian air defence systems malfunctioning.

⚡️ A Ukrainian strike on the centre of Belgorod, Russia, has killed a minimum of 4 people, including 2 children, and wounded another 3.

⚡ Number of civilians wounded in Ukrainian strike on the centre of Belgorod now estimated at 40. Confirmed 4 killed, 2 children.

⚡️ From Belgorod now reported that 14 civilians were killed, and over 100 wounded in Ukrainian strikes today.

The death toll from Ukraine's strike on Belgorod has now risen to 22 civilians killed, 3 of those children. Over 100 civilians wounded, including multiple children.

344 apartments were damaged in the strike, as was a school, and kindergarten, over 50 cars were damaged.

30 of those wounded are in a serious condition, with several children in that number.

Absolutely horrific.

Footage from Belgorod yesterday of parents protecting their children, rushing them to safety, as Ukrainian Nazi forces struck the centre of the city with horrific results on a day when families were out, preparing for New Year.

🛑 Sadly the death toll from Belgorod continues to rise. Now 24 civilians confirmed as killed, in that number 4 children. Multiple victims of the strike by Ukraine's Nazi forces are currently fighting for their lives in hospital.

Happy New Year dear friends!!! Let's hope for some more fairness, more happiness in our world this year!!!

Sadly, 2024 began in Donetsk with shelling by Ukrainian Nazis hitting across the city, causing serious damage to multiple, non-military buildings, with civilian death and injury reported.

What a shame when you open the news and see only destruction everywhere, something no civilised person wants to see, to find the west talking not of achieving peace in 2024, but rather how they can find ways to extend war beyond 2024.....

Just a load of Ukrainians out, here Lvov, honouring WWII Nazi Stepan Bandera.....

Was sad to note that Tom Wilkinson didn't make it out of 2023, a very talented actor. 2001's In the Bedroom is my pick of his work, an outstanding film, an absolutely tremendous performance by Wilkinson.

This is you when everyone is tearing into Michelle Mone for being a total scammer, but no one is talking about who appointed her to the House of Lords.... 😉

Cringe.

Zaluzhny announced a shortage of soldiers in the Armed Forces of Ukraine and called on deputies to go to the front.

The commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Valery Zaluzhny, spoke extremely emotionally during the discussion of the law on mobilization in the Verkhovna Rada, reported the publication NV.ua.

“I need people. <…> Who should I fight with? Or turn to the world and ask for people there, or you go fight if you don’t provide,” said the Ukrainian military leader.

🎬 Watched 'Leave the World Behind', a brief review -

* Standard end-of-the-world stuff, stuffed with loads of gratuitous, and totally boring, racial tension......
* Someone doesn't like Tesla / Elon Musk
* Random deer stuff
* Despite the stars, the epic budget, etc, it's shit.
* Obama's fingerprints are all over it, so what is that f*cker trying to prepare us for....
