Maternity ward in Odesa. Again.
The hardest was evacuating newborn twins on ventilators.
When Russian Shaheds attacked, doctors moved 33 pregnant women and 19 newborns to safety in a bomb shelter.
Then helped put out the fire.

No country has achieved full legal equality for women.
As backlash against gender equality intensifies, defending the of rule law has never mattered more.
#ForAllWomenAndGirls, we must achieve equality.

H: gender inequality and health

I am grateful to each of the 107 countries that stood with Ukraine today in defense of life at the @UN.
The General Assembly adopted our resolution in support of a lasting peace, with clear calls for a full ceasefire and the return of our people.
These are the right and necessary steps. And we will keep working actively to achieve peace, together with our partners.

"Inflation, which Mr. Trump promised to end “on day one,” picked up in 2025. The trade deficit in goods, which Mr. Trump promised to shrink, hit a record high. The manufacturing sector, which Mr. Trump promised to restore, shed jobs."
Apart from that, it's going great.
