Russia and Ukraine Trade Drone Strikes After Trump Rebuke
**Russia and Ukraine Trade Drone Strikes After Trump Rebuke** Tensions between Russia and Ukraine escalated sharply following a barrage of drone and missile attacks by both sides, just days after former U.S. President Donald Trump publicly criticized the leadership of both nations. One of the most intense aerial confrontations in recent months has resulted in the deployment of dozens of drones, the destruction of important infrastructure, and renewed calls for diplomatic intervention. Over 350 Iranian-made Shahed drones and a number of cruise missiles, according to Ukrainian military sources, were launched by Russia against important Ukrainian cities like Kyiv, Odesa, and Lviv. Ukrainian air defense systems were activated immediately and reportedly intercepted a majority of the drones, though significant damage was still sustained in various areas. The primary targets included civil buildings, energy infrastructure, and rail networks. In response, Ukraine launched its own wave of drone attacks, targeting Russian-held military installations and fuel depots in areas of Crimea and Belgorod. Explosions were reported near several key logistical hubs, causing temporary disruptions in Russian military operations. The counterattacks, according to Kyiv, are a "measured response" to Russia's "escalating aggression." This intensification in hostilities came on the heels of a controversial social media post by Donald Trump, who labeled Russian President Vladimir Putin as “crazy” and accused Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of being unwilling to compromise for peace. Trump, who had previously made a point of praising his close relationships with both leaders, expressed dissatisfaction over the inability to reach a ceasefire and suggested that both sides were ignoring the larger interests of the world. Trump’s statement triggered reactions across global diplomatic circles. The Kremlin dismissed his remarks as “emotional,” emphasizing that Russia’s military operations are a matter of national security. Ukrainian officials, meanwhile, were more reserved, with a presidential advisor noting that peace cannot be built on “false equivalence” between aggressor and victim.

the Mind of a Killer
Inside the Mind of a Killer The first thing Detective Mira Lane noticed was the silence. Not the absence of sound—but the thick, deliberate hush that settled over the apartment like a fog. The kind of quiet that made your skin crawl. The kind that suggested something terrible had just happened—and maybe wasn’t quite over.

Beware Of Assassins
Some people are willing to do anything for money. From prostitution to drug smuggling, there is no bounds to which some will go to. I personally despise con-artists, like how AI generated bullshit has flooded the internet (something I refuse to use by the way) with fake art, books and even music. Some even have the audacity to charge others for this soulless nonsense, it is despicable. Yet there are those who are far more degenerate than that, there are some whose will to make money, means to kill! That's right, out of all the crimes in the world like theft, arson and kidnapping, committing murder is by far the worst, even more despicable than torture. To take anyone else's's life for any price (not matter how high that number may be) is the vile and disgusting thing any human can do. If you're not a complete psychopath, killing someone will haunt your guilty conscience for the rest of your pathetic life. It wouldn't matter if you were an overnight millionaire, seeing the lights die out in your target's eyes would be the most traumatising sight ever. That's why some assassin's prefer to kill their targets from a great distance, using a sniper rifle from a high vantage point, typically a tall building. It's less personal that way, like completing an objective in a video game. It's still sick. Something nobody should ever do, only in extreme emergency situations like presenting a mass shooting or gang war between two armed rivals. Yet despite all this, some still kill solely for money and that alone is why humanity itself is truly doomed.

Despite decades of speculation, the truth behind the death of the man who checked in as Roland T. Owen continues to evade historians, sleuths, and true crime enthusiasts alike.

Ghana Kicks Out Migrants Specially From Burkina Faso, Mali & Niger Ghanaians Spew Hatred
Friday, 16 May 2025 By: TB Obwoge I will never forget how I felt living in Ghana, it was never a moment where I felt welcome or at total peace because of the complexion of my skin. I laugh when I see the few lighter skin Black Americans proclaiming how wonderful Ghana is to them. I also noticed that in almost every video of Black Americans in Ghana that ligher skin Black people are often missing. I mean surely we exist, in the United States I can't help but see the various shades everywhere I go.
