So I’m sitting at home and bawling my eyes out reading this rescue Telegram chat from the Russian-occupied Oleshky. People are literally begging to save them, some of them have been sitting on rooftops for two days now, no food or water.

A lot of them elderly, many children. pic.twitter.com/6lPIZSI7w9
Many are disabled and can’t go anywhere, some are too young or too old.

A lot of them will drown in the next hours. Some of them will be shot by the Russians. pic.twitter.com/llqstsF5ey
We don’t leave our people behind.

We don’t leave others behind either – Ukraine sent rescue missions to Turkey after the earthquakes, Afghanistan in 2021, in 2019 our government offered to send 200 firefighters to Australia to help fight the fires. pic.twitter.com/PUhe8n444g
We don’t ask you to come here and fight this battle for us.

Today you just have to keep standing united more than ever. Not parrot propaganda points, not spread speculations and lies.
You know who we are, we’ve shown you multiple times before. Nothing changed.
