Ukrainian women vow to protect their soil the same way as men
The #RussianMilitary continued to push forward towards #Kyiv on the third day of the invasion. The #Ukrainian President #VolodymyrZelenskiy anticipated that they would be facing the toughest night ever.
Staying in Kyiv, the Ukrainian Congresswoman #KiraRudik posted a photo of her holding a rifle on #Twitter, saying that Ukrainian women ‘will protect our soil the same way as our men’.
She told CNN she would not leave Kyiv, for it is their city and their country.
The Ukrainian #government distributed weapons to citizens as a part of defending the Russian military.
The government also encouraged their people to prepare gasoline bombs.
CNN interviewed the ex-Ukrainian President #PetroPoroshenko, a current-militia, who accused Russian President #VladimirPutin ‘crazy’, and ‘entering Ukraine just for killing’.
He added that ‘Putin could never take over Ukraine’.

"Let's Say We're Japanese": Chinese in #Ukraine Fear Retribution after Insulting Posts from #ChineseNetizens
As Russian armed forces invaded Ukraine, numerous Chinese netizens made posts in support of Russia. Some posts even sarcastically said, "beautiful ladies of Ukraine, come to China".
These posts have drawn the ire of the Ukrainian public, according to a video by a Chinese student who said he was living in Ukraine. "They're a bit emotional about this," he said. Chinese living in Kyiv have begun telling others that they're Japanese; "We don't even dare to call ourselves Chinese anymore."
He called on China's "keyboard warriors" to show restraint, and stop offending the Ukrainians.
The student quoted posts made by Chinese netizens, such as: "Good for Ukraine to have a war; the more deaths the better. This way I could have an Ukrainian mistress." Local media have reported about these posts, complete with translations; "basically, all Ukrainians know."
In shelters, locals would ask Chinese students like himself about the posts, and whether Chinese people are really like this. As a result, many of them don't dare to take shelter in the metro stations with other Ukrainians.
"Give us a little chance to survive," he implored his audience in China. He said that when Ukrainians in Kyiv asked Chinese citizens where they are from, "We say we're Japanese. We don't even dare to call ourselves Chinese anymore, all thanks to you. Do you need a wife that badly? You've lost your humanity. So many of them are dying in the war; how dare you say "good for them" because you might get an Ukrainian wife."
With a sigh, he concluded: "If Chinese people here get beaten or shot to death, it will be thanks to you keyboard warriors."
Since Friday, Feb 25, 2022, China's social media giants #Weibo, #WeChat, and #TikTok have begun censoring accounts that made such offensive remarks. Weibo announced that they processed 542 such posts, and deducted social credit scores of 74 accounts. Tiktok said that it had processed 6,400 videos that have violated rules, and terminated 1,620 live streams.
