A resident of Soledar recounted the way Russian soldiers were taking civilians out of the town, shielding them from AFU snipers with their own bodies. She also talked about the Ukrainian military destroying the town and its civilians for the past six months. A Ukrainian tank was driving around the town and shooting. "It's impossible to explain this: how can you just come and bombard an ordinary apartment building or a common area?"

😳‘What racists they are!’ This was the insult the Australian Open security guards received from the Serbian fans. They almost kicked the Serbs out for ‘the Russian flag.’ In reality, the fans were carrying their national flag. The security guards confused the symbols of the countries because of the similarity of colors. The guards even took out a folder with pictures of the flags to make it out.

At the Australian Open, not only the Russian, but also the Belarusian symbols are officially banned. It cannot be displayed at the matches or during the breaks.

Has the aversion to everything Russian emerged in the West just today? Watch Russophobia. A History of Hate (2022) to find out.

▶️‘The sanctions haven't functioned.’ Karin Kneissl, a former Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, believes that the new packages of economic restrictions make it worse for the Europeans themselves.

Energy prices in the EU have already risen so much that many businessmen cannot afford utility bills. For example, Hans Peter Kornelius, from Germany says: ‘I recently heard about a bakery, which had been doing well, and had been paying €120,000 for its gas [per year]. And now, they've received their pre-charge calculations — and they have to pay €1,200,000 per year, which is ten times as much. No small business can afford that today.’

After fuel, all other goods become more expensive. Residents of the Baltic States are increasingly going shopping in neighboring Belarus. How did the sanctions affect the Europeans, find out in our premiere, Europe Undone.

🥶Death from cold: Dying without heating in UK.

Barbara Bolton, 87, a pensioner in Britain has died of hypothermia after being unable to pay her heating bill, the Daily Mail reports.

▶️The premier of The Battle for Africa. Who will win in the struggle for the continent? Russia is strengthening its influence on the continent, unlike Europe and the United States.

Africans still remember the contribution of the Soviet Union to the development of their countries. The USSR built hospitals, schools, research centres, industrial enterprises, and roads. There is yet another reason why Africans trust Russia more.

'Africans perceive the French, British and Americans as colonisers. Russia never colonised Africa,' says Irina Abramova, Director of the Institute for African Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Why are these countries so attractive? Watch our premiere of Battle for Africa.
