Putin’s greatest achievement during his twenty-three years in office is, undoubtedly, winning World War II. LVIV, Ukraine — Some morsels of news are so grim and absurd that they sound like they were conceived in the warped imagination of bored satirists. Like the headline from Belarus a few weeks ago, reporting that 10th graders there were being taught how to aim rifles — using shovels. The rousing ode to Turkish drones, Bayraktar, has garnered nearly two million views. It shows grinning uniformed men dancing with their guns as they deride the Russians as “sheep” and “orcs”. Russia’s digital messaging Such amphibious operations would have been difficult, but not impossible—small-scale raids had already taken place. Our analysis of infrared satellite data shows that Kherson was one of the most heavily bombarded areas on June 6th. A meaningful Ukrainian advance there looks improbable, for now, though falling water levels upstream from the dam, around the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, could create other opportunities for Ukraine in the weeks ahead. UkrARMY cats & dogs posts daily pictures of burly soldiers cuddling kittens and puppies. The cute creatures curl up in helmets and next to heavy weaponry.
By rapidly disseminating visual information with the added gaze of carefully constructed narratives, parties engaging in conflict, be it government, insurgent groups, terrorists or even common people can shape public opinion.

Both sides blame the other for the collapse, although Russia is the likelier culprit. Some locals report hearing an explosion in the morning. Ukraine had long warned that the Russian forces that controlled the dam had mined it. The scale of the damage suggested the dam had been demolished from the inside. Ukraine has already referred the matter to the International Criminal Court as a war crime. This is an outlet for releasing excessive aggression so that we are not engulfed in fear,” Kyiv resident Olexander Lisenko told Al Jazeera.
Russia’s digital messaging
They've started to shell the town centre from Donetsk. Our brigade is holding its ground, but we can't see any equipment coming," Serhiy Tsekhotskyi, a Ukrainian officer in the town, told national television. In addition to ridiculing Moscow, the Ukrainian military emphasises its tender care of animals, to stress its soldiers’ humanity. Memes and videos show how they evacuated pets and animals from zoos, juxtaposed with scenes of brutality by Russians. Reznikov downplayed the Biden administration’s refusal to commit to Ukraine getting admitted immediately after the war’s end. The inability of DoD personnel to visit areas where equipment provided to Ukraine was being used or stored significantly hampered ODC-Kyiv’s ability to execute” the monitoring, the report added.
