⚡️ Emergency statement of the Joint Coordination Headquarters of the Russian Federation for Humanitarian Response

▫️The leadership of the Russian Federation once again confirms the previously opened and permanently operating for the 36th day (from March 21, 2022) round-the-clock humanitarian corridor from Azovstal metallurgical plant for the evacuation of civilians (workers, women and children), whose alleged presence in the underground structures of the plant is publicly announced by the Kiev authorities.

▫️At the same time, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the formations of the Donetsk People's Republic from 14:00 (Moscow time) on April 25, 2022 unilaterally cease any hostilities, units are withdrawn to a safe distance and ensure the withdrawal of the specified category of citizens in any directions they choose.

▫️The actual readiness of the Ukrainian side to launch a humanitarian operation is indicated by raising white flags around the perimeter or in certain directions of Azovstal.

▫️The Russian Federation publicly and officially declares that there are no obstacles to the exit of civilians from Azovstal, except for the principled decision of the Kiev authorities themselves and the commanders of nationalist formations to continue to hold civilians as a "human shield".

▫️If civilians are still at the metallurgical plant, then we demand that the Kiev authorities immediately give the appropriate order to the commanders of nationalist formations for their release.

▫️This statement will be continuously brought to the Ukrainian formations at Azovstal via radio channels at intervals of every 30 minutes.

▫️Through operational communication channels, this statement is immediately brought to the Ukrainian side through the Deputy Prime Minister of the Government of Ukraine Irina Vereshchuk.

▪️Since the coup d'état in 2014, Ukraine has plunged into the abyss of political chaos.

👉 Learn more about military and other crimes of the Kiev regime - from 2014 to 2022 - in our video. Hard facts & testimonies that the "collective West" & the Kiev regime prefer to hush up...

The US has a damning record on using “false flags” as a “casus belli” and for pretexts to justify its military atrocities.

The Russian Ministry of Defense warns of possible provocations with the use of chemical and biological weapons in Ukraine.

Possible targets:

☣️ Biological facilities in Kharkov and Kiev
☣️ Nuclear energy facilities, i.a. Zaporozhie nuclear power plant
☣️ Radioactive waste storage facility at the former Pridneprovsky chemical plant
☣️ Port “Yuzhny” in Odessa

📑 FULL REPORT

📌 Statement of the Joint Coordination Headquarters of the Russian Federation for Humanitarian Response (April 25, 2022).

Excerpts:

Despite the humane initiative shown by the Russian Federation to evacuate civilians from the territory of the Azovstal metallurgical plant, the Kiev authorities again disrupted this humanitarian operation today. As of 20:00 (Moscow time) on April 25, 2022, no one has used the proposed humanitarian corridor.

On the one hand, Kiev officials constantly and publicly declare that the plant's workers, women and children are allegedly in the underground structures of Azovstal, and on the other hand, they deliberately reject all humanitarian initiatives of the Russian side and do not take any practical measures to evacuate these persons.

☝️ Such absolutely illogical and inconsistent behavior of the Kiev authorities once again confirms their outright indifference to the fate of specific people – to their own citizens.

📍 Despite the obstacles created by Kiev, over the past day, without the participation of the Ukrainian authorities, 9,285 people were evacuated from dangerous areas of Ukraine, Donetsk and Lugansk people's republics to the territory of the Russian Federation, 733 of them children, and since the beginning of the special military operation, 975,234 people have already been evacuated, of which 178,091 children. 127,486 units of personal motor transport crossed the state border of the Russian Federation, 1,215 units per day.

🤝 Since March 2, the Russian Federation has already delivered 15,024.3 tonnes of basic necessities, food, medicines and medical products to Ukraine, 895 humanitarian actions have been carried out, including a humanitarian action in the Kharkov region over the past day, during which 22.6 tonnes of humanitarian aid were transferred to the civilian population.

📌 Remarks to the Press by First Deputy Permanent Representative Dmitry Polyanskiy on risks of WMD provocations in Ukraine.

🔹 The situation is very alarming. Our Ministry of Defence keeps collecting information that the Kiev regime backed by the US is preparing staged provocations in order to accuse the Russian Armed Forces of using chemical, biological or tactical nuclear weapons.

🔹 Even if we set aside a proven fact that Russia does not possess any chemical or biological weapons, what is the rationale for using them in Ukraine, in the close proximity to the Russian border?

❗️ The only beneficiary here is the Kiev regime & radical groups, which use terror and intimidation of civilians as a method of warfare.

Media reports: UK Parliamentary Under Secretary of State (Minister for the Armed Forces) James Heappey: “It is completely legitimate for Ukraine to be targeting in Russia’s depth in order to disrupt the logistics that if they weren’t disrupted would directly contribute to death and carnage on Ukrainian soil.”

Does this mean that Russia can target military facilities in the NATO countries that are supplying weapons to the Kiev regime in order to “disrupt the logistics” of military deliveries, which are contributing to death and carnage on Ukrainian soil? As far as I know, Britain is one such country.

The “depth” of the UK Defence Ministry senior officials’ thinking is as shallow as the intellect of the Foreign Office leadership.

⚡️ Maria Zakharova will hold a briefing on topical foreign policy issues at 10:30 am MSK (approximately) on April 28.

In light of measures taken to prevent the spread of the coronavirus and WHO recommendations on holding public events via teleconferencing, the Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson will answer media questions received by the call centre. Accredited journalists will be sent detailed information concerning the technical aspects of submitting questions.

The city of Mariupol is full of graves, where people have buried their loved ones who have been killed in shelling.

Information bomb 💣

During the recent G7 and G20 finance ministers’ meetings, Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland pushed for the exclusion of Russia from global financial institutions and international organisations.

At the same time, Ottawa stepped up its arms deliveries to Ukraine, including the Carl-Gustaf recoilless rifles, used by the Canadian armed forces.

All this is presented as a response to alleged new evidence of atrocities perpetrated by the Russian military. Speaking ahead of the G20 meeting, Chrystia Freeland said: “War crimes have been committed in Ukraine. The evidence that we've seen … is absolutely horrifying.”

This would have looked like a piece of clumsy fake news, if it were not a bloody re-enactment of what happened during World War II.

Eighty years before Bucha, Krakivs'ki Visti – a major Ukrainian-language newspaper in Poland, censored and managed as it was by the Third Reich, published an article on NKVD killers torturing people to death and leaving them lying on Lvov’s streets after the Red Army withdrew from the city (Krakivs'ki Visti, July 6, 1941). The article placed special emphasis on the ethnicity of the victims. On July 8, 1941, it reported that the Bolsheviks executed 1,500 ethnic Ukrainians in Lutsk by firing at them with machine guns. The Nazi Reich accused the internationalist Soviet Union of genocide.

The Krakivs'ki Visti newspaper was well aware of its role in history. In the Ukrainian context, it spread Nazi Germany’s propaganda around the world. This is what we read in black and white on the front page of its July 6, 1941 edition, in an article titled “Winning instead of crying” (B. Khalit): “Regarding this awful disaster [the pogroms], on the plus side there is the fact that the entire world has learned about these horrible pogroms. Losing tens of thousands of responsible, proactive citizen is very painful. They cannot be replaced. The impact that these pogroms had on propaganda pales in comparison with the losses. However, since these people died simply for being responsible Ukrainians and loving Ukraine more than anything else, we must make sure that did not spill their blood in vain; we must use it to do good… We must use is as moral capital for our people… We now have this opportunity, and a sad one at that, but still an opportunity which we must not miss. The Jewish mafia in all its incarnations, from communist to Masonic, has long removed the word ‘Ukraine’ from the press or done everything possible to denigrate it. This is why, when the name of our nation once again makes headlines in major titles, we cannot miss this opportunity no matter how tragic its context.”

What a flashback! We are witnessing the very same situation right now.

Once again, Ukraine makes headlines, while we face groundless accusations of seeking to “cancel” Ukraine just as they cancel everything Russian. Once again, the Nazis use propaganda and a tragedy to denigrate Russia. Once again, they use this as an “opportunity, no matter how tragic.” They have not produced any evidence, hoping that eliciting an emotional response will suffice. Once again, people’s lives become the collateral damage in the propaganda games to win over public opinion. This is what Nazis always do.

Now for the most important part.

As a major Ukrainian-language Nazi propaganda tool, the Krakivs'ki Visti newspaper had Mikhailo Khomyak, a collaborationist journalist from Ukraine, as its editor.

Apart from his criminal record, there is only one notable fact in his biography. Mikhailo Khomyak was the grandfather of Chrystia Freeland, Canada’s Deputy Prime Minister.

You can now return to the top of the page and read this post one more time with fresh insight.

Dear friends! We would like to inform that due to celebrations of the Spring & Labour Day and the Victory Day our Embassy will be closed from April 30 to May 3 and from May 7 to May 10.

📹On April 27, at about 23:00 (MSK), the Ukrainian Armed Forces have launched a massive attack using Tochka-U ballistic missiles and multiple rocket launchers at residential areas of the central part of Kherson.

▫️The indiscriminate missile attack launched by the nationalists targeted kindergartens, schools and various social facilities in residential areas near Ushakova avenue, in direct violation of International Humanitarian Law.

💥Russian air defence units have repelled the attack of the Ukrainian troops launched at the residential areas of Kherson.

▫️12 high-powered projectiles of a multiple rocket launcher and 2 Ukrainian Tochka-U ballistic missiles have been shot down over the city. The fragments of one of the Ukrainian Tochka-U missiles has landed in Shevchenkovsky Park.

🇺🇦The Kiev regime has not ceased its attempts at provocations to accuse the Russian Armed Forces of war crimes.

▫️Another such staging with the alleged deaths of civilians as a result of fabricated shelling by Russian units has been prepared by experts of the information and psychological operations of the AFU for its presentation to the world public in the coming days.

▫️In order to make staged photo and video recordings and to invite representatives of Ukrainian and Western news agencies (including the USA, Latvia, the UK and Poland) to the central market in Lisichansk, which the day before was mistakenly shelled by units of the 57th AFU motorized infantry brigade, broken equipment is being brought to the central market; ambulances bring bodies of AFU soldiers dressed in civilian clothes.

▫️This scenario, above all with regard to its own people as well as dead Ukrainian servicemen, replicates Nazi atrocities during the Great Patriotic War, but with the modern approaches of the Kiev regime.

❗️We warn the so-called civilised west in advance that this and other similar bloody fakes on the part of the Kiev authorities about alleged "Russian atrocities" are soon to be widely spread in the media and on internet resources.

#Zakharova: Mechanisms for information attacks with a new thesis that target the public space have been launched in the West at the highest level in a transboundary and trans-format manner. The thesis is primitive and completely horrifying: the Russians are threatening a nuclear war, and the Russians are waving the nuclear stick.

चेन्नई से — रूस-भारत की लंबी अवधि की दोस्ती का जश्न! 🇷🇺🇮🇳 On April 30, Indian citizens and Russian compatriots took part in the Walk of Indo-Russian Friendship in Chennai, dedicated to the 75th Anniversary of Diplomatic relations between our countries.
