I condemn disinformation campaigns & attempts to undermine the credibility of the UN human rights system, including @UN_SPExperts mandate holders. Criticism & debate are legitimate & necessary; efforts to intimidate, discredit, or even sanction, are not. They are unacceptable. - UN Human Rights Chief @volker_turk

Efforts to deal with the aftermath of the Russian strikes are ongoing in Kyiv, as well as in Kharkiv. Last night, the Russians launched more than 60 missiles at the capital alone. In total, 70 missiles and 611 drones were used against Ukraine. As of now, 28 people have been reported injured and four killed in the capital. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. A Russian strike on the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra set the Dormition Cathedral on fire – a church whose history dates back to the 11th century. And this is one of Russia’s most serious crimes against Christian culture to date. The State Emergency Service has already extinguished the fire on the cathedral’s roof. In Kharkiv, the Russians carried out a repeat strike against our rescuers as they were putting out a fire at the site of an earlier strike on an industrial facility. So far, tragically, five people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to all their families and loved ones. Nine people have been injured. In Dnipro, Russia struck the grounds of a railway station, a college, and several enterprises. Other cities and communities were targeted as well. The Kyiv, Dnipro, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, and Mykolaiv regions were also under attack. This is how Russia shows the world its intention to continue the war. It is very important that there be a response from the G7 countries, which are now gathering for their summit – and that this response be decisive and substantive: more pressure on the aggressor and more support for Ukraine’s air defense, especially anti-ballistic capabilities. I thank everyone who is helping us protect lives.

The Dovzhenko film studio in Kyiv is one of the oldest centers of world cinema. Established in 1927, it’s where Dziga Vertov, Sergey Paradzhanov and obviously Oleksandr Dovzhenko shot some of their masterpieces. It survived WWII because its collection was evacuated to Central Asia before the Nazi takeover. This morning, it was hit by Russian missiles. The entire collection of 100,000 costumes going back nearly a century burned down. Other priceless artifacts gone, too. Barbarians sacking Europe’s cultural heritage.

Piccola storia un po’ triste un po’ patetica. @GiuseppeConteIT pubblica su X il proprio intervento alla Camera, inserendo in più punti le immagini di @GiorgiaMeloni, la quale però in quel momento non era presente in aula. Al post risponde lei, domandando il perché di quell’inutile manipolazione. Ri-risposta di Conte con una supercazzola di 40 righe nella quale rivendica, tra le altre cose, di aver ottenuto i 209 miliardi del PNRR. E così alla manipolazione e alla fuffa ha aggiunto pure la menzogna, perché la cifra fu determinata da un algoritmo scritto da due funzionari olandesi e non fu il risultato di alcuna negoziazione. Vorrei ricordare che questo venditore di pentole fasulle, tappeti tarocchi e ricambi per aspirapolvere di seconda mano viene dato al 12 e mezzo per cento nei sondaggi. Permettetemi di essere preoccupato per il futuro dell’Italia.

Un cittadino del Mali di 22 anni, arrestato per l'aggressione e la violenza sessuale ai danni di una donna di 74 anni avvenuta a Pistoia nel giugno 2025, è stato scarcerato a seguito dell'annullamento dell'ordinanza di custodia cautelare. Il provvedimento è stato revocato per un vizio di forma: il documento non era stato tradotto nella lingua dell'indagato, rendendo l'atto nullo per mancato rispetto del diritto alla difesa. Vuoi non ringraziare l'operato a norma di legge della magistratura?
