The large fundraiser for a STEYR 1291 truck for the separate engineer-sapper company of the 120th brigade of the territorial defence, which performs tasks of covering the state border, has been going on for a very long time, so I joined it in the hope of speeding up the money collection.
As always, I will be very happy with your donations and shares ❤️

I still can't comprehend how someone can be tried for treason by a country they're not a legal citizen of? Unfortunately, this absurdity is normal for russians.
In January-June 2025, occupiers detained 24 people from #Crimea for 'treason'. It's a go-to charge to imprison anyone disliked.
Human rights defenders claim that given the mass arrests, closed court proceedings, restricted access to legal counsel, and reported use of torture, the validity of such accusations is highly questionable
This is an unlawful deprivation of liberty, qualifying it as a WAR CRIME.

The Ukrainian flag flies high over a country whose core values are freedom and dignity. I love just looking at it 💙💛
The photo was taken in #Crimea and published today by the Mission of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea
Happy Ukrainian Flag Day!

Appaz Kurtamet, the youngest #Crimean political prisoner, is unlawfully held by russia. At just 19, he was abducted and sentenced to 7 years. Now he is 22.
He refused to betray Ukraine. His story needs your attention — be his voice.

russia is actively destroying Bakhchisaray Palace – the only surviving example of Crimean Tatar palace architecture – under the guise of "restoration."
They want to hide their crimes and erase the cultural heritage of indigenous people on a land where they are foreign occupiers.
They burned our libraries, they defiled our language, they paved their foreign architecture on the peninsula with the gravestones of our ancestors.
They destroy everything that is ours, just to say we never existed here.

A sweet fundraiser for 3D Printers
I know you don’t need extra motivation to donate, but I recently discovered I’m really good at baking a Ukrainian honey cake Medivnyk! So EVERY donation gives you a chance to win a whole cake from me! I might even decide to make TWO smaller ones for two random supporters! 🤭
So, what are we raising funds for?
The workshop of the Unmanned Systems Battalion of the 36th Separate Marine Brigade, where Crimean Tatar Umer serves, needs equipment, specifically:
- Bambu Lab P1S 3D printer – costs around 30,000 UAH
- Creality K1 Max 3D printer – costs around 35,000 UAH
I invite you to join this fundraiser with any amount you can spare! Every donation matters, and every donation helps our defenders take out, well… you know who! 😄
You can donate via the link (https://send.monobank.ua/jar/4LYMZqtbWY) or to my PayPal (el.nov98@gmail.com).
Sorry, I've got a picture only in Ukrainian 🙈

On March 18, 2014, a russian sniper in Crimea killed the first Ukrainian serviceman in this war — Serhiy Kokurin. At the time, russia claimed there were no russian troops in Crimea, insisting it was all so-called "local self-defense forces." Eleven years later, russia continues to kill our best people.

Today I’m thinking about girls. Including the ones in these photos. Girls who had a chance to grow up in a country that would never harm them, who could have advanced Crimean Tatar scholarship, become writers, artists.
But their land was occupied by soviet forces, and then they were deported from their homeland, Crimea.
Because of these girls — their strength and will to live — I exist. And I work for the girls who, I hope, will never have to fight for survival or for their rights.

1) the world war has already started, 2) no, it's you who are suggesting the endless war. You think russia will stop in Ukraine?
I can't understand why my homeland should be sacrificed to a mad terrorist just because some people are afraid to support those who are fighting for surviving. You're either stand for Ukraine and its people or you support the biggest genocide organised by a sick imperialistic murderer.

we call it yantıq and it's like çıberek, only not fried but cooked on a dry pan

No peace is possible as long as even a SINGLE square kilometer of Ukrainian land remains under occupation!
Ceding territory means leaving people as permanent hostages to a terrorist regime while the world stands by and watches, allowing their suffering and deaths.

Friends, I’ve joined a fundraiser to purchase a "Linza" UAV system, laptops, and PVS for our defenders.
My part of the fundraiser is modest — only 2,500 UAH/$60 is needed. I kindly ask for your help with sharing and donating!
As always, you can send money to my PayPal (el.nov98@gmail.com), I will transfer it to the jar

If you ever find yourself in Lviv, stop by "Krymskyi Dvoryk" for lunch 😋 The owner, a Crimean Tatar woman Lerane, opened this restaurant in Lviv. Before the full-scale invasion, it was located in Irpin
