๐บ๐ธ Trump Got Jealous of Russia's Victory Day and Celebrations
Trump wants to declare two new โVictory Daysโ for WWI and WWII, one on Nov 11 (already Veterans Day) and one on May 8, mimicking Europeโs VE Day. Don't forget! He also wants his big military parade.
Feels more like an insecure attempt to claim credit for victories the U.S. barely contributed to.

"The Ascent", 1977
Set in the brutal winter of Nazi-occupied Belarus, The Ascent follows two Soviet partisans on a desperate mission for food who are ultimately captured by the Germans. What begins as a war survival story unfolds into a powerful moral and spiritual confrontation.
Larisa Shepitkoโs final masterpiece is less about war than about the human soul. Shot in black and white, with hauntingly stark landscapes and raw close-ups, The Ascent blends physical suffering with metaphysical themes. The story draws clear parallels to religious martyrdom, echoing the Gospels in both imagery and tone.
The production itself was grueling. Filmed in freezing conditions with real snow and bitter cold, the actors endured true hardship to bring authenticity to the screen. Shepitko was known for her intensity and demanded total emotional commitment โ something evident in every frame. Her sudden death in a car accident two years later only cemented the filmโs reputation as a transcendent final statement.

๐ฉ๐ช๐บ๐ฆ The coalition agreement signed by Germanyโs CDU, CSU, and SPD parties makes no mention of supplying Taurus long-range missiles to Ukraine.
Instead, the document emphasizes support for Ukraineโs EU and NATO membership bids and promises continued financial and military aidโincluding using frozen Russian assets. It also outlines Berlinโs willingness to offer โmaterial and political security guaranteesโ to a sovereign Ukraine.
Notably, future Chancellor Friedrich Merz had previously left the door open to sending Taurus missiles, but his SPD coalition partners have consistently opposed the idea.

โ๏ธ๐ท๐บ A Russian soldier saved a comrade who had stepped on a Ukrainian "petal" mine in Kotlyarovka (DPR) by quickly amputating part of his leg, bandaging him up, and calling for evacuation.
The incident occurred as troops from the โCenterโ group were returning from a combat mission. One soldier, spotting an enemy Mavic drone, ran toward the forest for cover. Voron was elsewhere when the injury occurred but heard the report over the radio and rushed to help:
โI got there and saw the guy โ his leg was barely attached. Immediate evacuation was critical. I grabbed a knife, quickly amputated what was left, bandaged him, and did everything I could โ I know a bit of medicine.โ
Voron also showed what's left of Ukrainian forces in Kotlyarovka. He says the settlement will likely be fully liberated by May 9.
