Germany has satellite image indication of Russian involvement in Bucha killings
The German government has indications that Russia was involved in the killing of civilians in the Ukrainian town of Bucha based on satellite images, a security source said.
German news magazine Der Spiegel reported that the intelligence agency had intercepted radio messages from Russian military sources discussing the killing of civilians in Bucha.
"It's true that the federal government has indications of Russian perpetration in Bucha," said the source. "However, these findings on Bucha refer to satellite images. The radio transmissions cannot be clearly assigned to Bucha."
The source did not elaborate. He said there was no indication of an order from the Russian armed forces' general staff regarding Bucha.

Russia to continue negotiations
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov has that Kyiv had presented Moscow with a draft peace deal that contained "unacceptable" elements, but that Russia would nonetheless continue talks and press to secure its own requirements.
The Kremlin has said that peace talks between Moscow and Kyiv are not progressing as rapidly as it would like and has accused the West of trying to derail negotiations by focusing on war crimes allegations, which Moscow denies.He accused Ukrainian authorities of seeking to scupper talks and not wanting to end more than a month of fighting.
"We see this as a manifestation of the fact that the Kyiv regime is controlled by Washington and its allies, who are pushing President Volodymyr Zelensky to continue hostilities," he added. -
The UK is set to step up the supply of arms to Ukraine after Kyiv pleaded for greater firepower to fight back against the Russian invasion.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said his government is "certainly looking at what more military assistance we can give" as NATO allies considered how to bolster Ukraine's resistance.
Ukrainian generals have visited the UK to see some of the kit that could potentially be offered, including armoured vehicles which could offer troops protection from Russian attack as they move around the war zone.
Mr Johnson said Vladimir Putin's forces have engaged in a "systematic slaughter of innocent people" in Ukraine and the world is now overwhelmingly on the side of Kyiv.British Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said the UK is "stepping up" the supply of arms, as she joined NATO counterparts in Brussels to hear the demands from Ukraine for more equipment.
Nato Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg acknowledged that Ukraine urgently needs more weapons. -
Help us now - Kuleba
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has said the Bucha massacre is "just the tip of the iceberg".
He said the West must either help Ukraine "within days" or it will "come too late".
Mr Kuleba said the discussion is not if Ukraine will get enough weapons but when.
Speaking after meeting NATO foreign ministers in Brussels, he said: "Either you help us now and I'm speaking about days, not weeks, or your help will come too late.
"And many people will die, many civilians will lose their homes, many villages will be destroyed. Exactly because this help came too late." -
NATO agrees more weapons strength for Ukraine
NATO members have agreed to strengthen support to Ukraine and are providing a wide range of weapon systems to the country, according to NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg.
It followed a meeting of foreign ministers in Brussels today.
Mr Stoltenberg told reporters that NATO members also agreed to do more to help other partners and shore up their ability to defend themselves, including Georgia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba earlier said he expected NATO members to send Kyiv the weapons it needs but insisted they had to act quickly before Russia launches another major offensive.

Mr. Kuleba quizzed on PoW Incident
Asked about video footage circulating on social media of Ukrainian soldiers allegedly shooting a Russian captive, Mr Kuleba said "there might be isolated incidents", but that Ukraine's army "observes the rules of warfare" and that violations would be investigated.
However, he added, observers failed to understand how it feels after seeing pictures of atrocities on the battlefield compared to "knowing that the person you know was raped four days in a row".
"This is not an excuse to those who violate the rules of warfare on either side of the frontline, but there are some things which you simply can't understand, I'm sorry." -

a simple search for jews working with nazis shows that it is possible. i don't believe someones background automatically excludes them from working with or for an opposing side. that being said, i admit i have no idea which side to trust. i always assume things are deeper and more complicated than what we see on the news. i distrust the media more than i do putin but the war crimes and killings of civilians, the loss of life, history and culture is simply appalling.BigAl! wrote:
You have to be dense as fuck to think he's a nazi 😂Zelenskyy is Jewish. His grandfather fought the Nazis, for Russia, in WW2. His great grandparents were Jewish civilians, killed by Nazis, because they were Jewish. He is NOT a Nazi, neo-Nazi, or Nazi supporter.
Meanwhile the leader of Belarus is notoriously and openly antisemitic...

Anyone sucking Zelensky’s dick can literally go jump off a cliff. You are blatantly spewing to the public that you are not capable of critical thinking, your mind is one sided, and you aren’t adding any value to (probably) anything in your life.

Imagine the whole world confirming that almost every single piece of positive news to support the Ukrainians and their agenda have been proven false, and STILL believing he’s a saint, the “good” guy, and not a piece of shit liar. I hope he gets executed.
