Russia and Ukraine's first prisoner exchange since October saw emotional reunions as the released Ukrainian soldiers returned home, but also dashed hopes for the kin of those not among them. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/02/06/world/politics/ukraine-soldiers-release/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #russiaukrainewar #russia #ukraine #pow

This is an Americon declaration of war against #Canadian sovereignty! As such we should take the US ambassador to Canada as a #POW! AND FOLLOW THE #EU trajectory and ban using US software/cloud and sales of energy to the US!

Glaciers are changing fast, and standing on the Hohlaubgletscher this summer made that crystal clear.

Their beauty is still overwhelming, but their fragility hits even harder.

We proudly support Protect Our Winters Switzerland, because these places deserve a future.

🌅 🇺🇦 Sunset in Odesa after a day of humanitarian volunteering.

Stopped by European Square (formerly Katerynyns’ka Square) to pay respects and honor 🕯️fallen heroes—and a banner calling to free the Azovstal defenders.

🕊️Their courage and heroism will forever be remembered.

Heroyam Slava. Slava Ukraini. 🇺🇦

Screenshot of the resolution at the bottom of https://www.auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschwitz-council/ - which is still there.

RESOLUTION OF THE INTERNATIONAL AUSCHWITZ COUNCIL ON THE TRAGIC EVENTS IN ISRAEL, APPROVED BY CIRCULATION ON 18 NOVEMBER 2023

The International Auschwitz Council by the Prime Minister of the Republic of Poland acknowledges with the deepest pain and sorrow the suffering of innocent Victims – tortured, raped, taken hostage, and murdered by Hamas terrorists.

We wish to express our unwavering solidarity with Israelis and Jews worldwide.

Threatened in its existence, the State of Israel has the right to self-defense in accordance with international law and the principles of humanitarianism. The existence of a free, sovereign, and democratic Jewish State is one of the pillars of world peace.

The unimaginable hatred and violence perpetrated by terrorists only results in extensive and more widespread suffering – affecting also the civilian population of Gaza, whom Hamas exploits as human shields.

An essential first step to halt the horrifying spiral of death and war is the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages, a demand we make with all our might. — Screenshot of the resolution at the bottom of https://www.auschwitz.org/en/museum/auschwitz-council/ - which is still there.

As a hiking guide, I spend a lot of time in the Alps. Many of my tours pass by glaciers – or places where glaciers once existed. They are silent witnesses to a transformation that feels unstoppable – yet must not simply be accepted.

That’s why I support the #1400reasonstoact campaign by Protect Our Winters Switzerland. It matters to make these glaciers visible.

Which glacier did you last visit?
