‼️Russians have just hit Kharkiv's residential areas with 10 guided bombs and ballistic missiles. There are many victims.

🇳🇴 The russian "spy whale" Khvaldymir died near the coast of Norway. The cause of death is unknown - the day before it was seen in good condition, so the body of the animal was taken for an autopsy.
The nickname of the whale is a combination of the Norwegian word hval (translated as whale) and the name of Vladimir Putin. It was first spotted by Norwegian fishermen in 2019 — it had a body kit with a GoPro camera on it, and also the logo of a russian company with the inscription "Equipment St. Petersburg".
Because of this, the beluga was nicknamed the "russian spy", it was assumed that the russian Federation trained him to collect intelligence. However, Moscow did not comment on these rumors, and the media assumed that Khvaldymir is a whale therapist who escaped from russia. All this time the Norwegians took care of him.

You can watch it come in for impact. I was wise to locate next to the highway. No way to charge the phone, but 3 bars.
Footage of the attack at the Moscow refinery from a different angle, where the moment of impact is clearly visible.

🇻🇪 Venezuela handed over Colombians who fought for Ukraine to russia. This is the first such case during the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukraine.
Two Colombians who served in the Foreign Legion in Ukraine were arrested during a transfer in Caracas (Venezuela), when they were returning home. In russia, they face up to 15 years in prison.

🐺The land mine-mining drone of the 23rd Battalion of the 63rd Mechanized Brigade has already become a real terror for the russians.
It is interesting that not only TM-62 mines, but also 155-mm artillery shells are used as charges with a remote detonator.
