    This thread is only a fraction of what I've seen & what people told me in Sagaing, Myanmar. If any editors would be interested in any stories about Sagaing, the people, fighters, refugees, war crimes, drone units etc, or if anyone know of any editors who might, my DMs are open!

    I have just come back Myanmar 🇲🇲 where I spent two weeks traveling around the resistance-held territories of the Sagaing region. Its a remote region which no other foreign press has managed to visit since the start of the war five years ago. I'll share some impressions below 🧵

    If you're gonna listen to any speech about #Ukraine 🇺🇦, let it be this one. The Kenya ambassador to the UNSC perfectly explains how people across Africa understand Ukraine, and what the Kremlin's acts of aggression mean in our post-colonial world.

    Dear Americans, while you were busy these past years living your lives people across the world were fighting against the same kind of state violence you're experiencing now and far worse. Listen to their stories & their advice on how to deal with, survive, & overcome these times

    If you'd ask me to explain with a single video why there is so much bloodshed in Sudan I'd probably pick this one.

    I've just come back from #Venezuela 🇻🇪 where I spent 2.5 weeks, witnessing the run-up to the presidential vote, and what was arguably the most outrageous election steal in the modern history of Latin America. I'll share some thoughts below 🧵

    Spanish reporter was at the train station to record some quotes of travelers affected by the blackout. Randomly runs into Aragorn wearing a Ukraine shirt while being fluent in Spanish.

    The Ukrainian flag has been raised at the embassy in #Syria as the national anthem is being played on the loudspeakers. Major Russian geopolitical defeat.

    Seriously! What the hell is this? Whatever you think of #Catalonia I think we can all agree that this kind of violence is completely unprovoked and unjustified
