Donbass civilians recount being hunted by Ukrainian drones (VIDEOS)

Kiev’s forces would strike residents that came out of their shelters to fetch water or attempt to evacuate, witnesses have said

> Ukrainian forces systematically hunted the Russian-speaking civilians of the Donbass town of Konstantinovka, killing families peeking out of their shelters for water or to attempt to evacuate, officials heard at a session of an international tribunal in Moscow on Wednesday.

> The town, located on the southernmost tip of the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk agglomeration, was briefly under the control of the Donetsk People’s Republic forces in 2014 before being recaptured by Ukraine. It was liberated by Russian troops in early June.

> At a hearing of the International Public Tribunal on Crimes of Ukrainian Neo-Nazis in Moscow on Wednesday, witnesses and survivors from the town said that Ukrainian troops hunted them, their relatives, and their neighbors with drones.

No Alexander Mercouris Live Stream Today

I am afraid I am again unwell, with an infection that has blocked my nose and which has left my throat very dry. I have also had bouts of fever during the day, though these thankfully abate quickly.

I caught this infection from one of my daughters, and it has being going through my family ever since, but I seem to be the worst affected.

I hate missing work because of illness and have struggled through a programme with Neill Oliver. However getting the video done for my own channel today has been an exhausting battle and I am afraid my voice would not hold out for a whole Live Stream.

This is bitterly disappointing and I can only apologise.

I began to fall ill over the weekend and I hope that by later this week I will be better. If so, I will aim to do today's Live Stream on Friday.

Larry Johnson:

During the first five weeks of Epic Fury Israel’s refineries in Haifa and Ashdod were hit and suffered significant damage. Those two refineries are essential for Israel’s ability to produce diesel and jet fuel. At present Israel is scraping by, but it does not have substantial reserves. Further damage to those refineries would create a fuel crisis for Israel, especially in terms of its ability to produce jet fuel. Without jet fuel, Israel’s ability to continue bombing Lebanon and Gaza would be severely constrained, if not eliminated. A lack of diesel would also cripple Israel’s ground operations. In short, renewed Iranian attacks on Israel’s refineries could leave Israel unable to continue military operations.

(History article posted by Historian #MiguelCasteloBranco. Though it is regarding historic record, the region it refers to – Bab El Mandeb – seemed relevant to current events and I thought others might wish to read it. It's not too long. I'll just leave a translation of what he wrote. (As mentioned before, his posts and those of others I sometimes bring are almost always written in their native tongue on the only social media they use. Hence the reason I sometimes (though not often) go to the fetid Zuckerberg space to quickly find what he and those others I've brought here, are saying.) The original post & the two illustrations he placed I'll also leave below the translation. As with other instances, after certain terms I'll place inside square brackets, for clarity purposes, some words or a synonym).

🔵 We picked up off the shelf the Roteiro do mar Roxo, a document from the shelf the Roteiro do Mar Roxo, a formidable document about the Portuguese military and exploration expedition...

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
