🇸🇾🇷🇺 Now let's get serious. I know there will be a lot of reactions now, but it is time to say something that most of my subscribers do not like to hear.
What has happened in the last two days is an attempt to frame civilians for the repression by the new authorities in Syria.
I fully condemn the actions of al-Sharaa and his friends from the Central Asian republics and Turkey. But at the same time, civilians who were able to find refuge at the Russian Hmeimim airbase are also suffering.
The Russian military has ensured the safety of the residents of the provinces of Latakia and Tartus, regardless of their ethnic and religious affiliation.
Russia is always ready to come to the rescue, but only when there is a threat to the lives of civilians

One thing that Telegram now offers to all users is the ability to “disappear” messages or set remote deletion deadlines. That enables users to have much more control over how long people can access what you’re sending them. Given that Russian law enforcement officials are reportedly (via Insider) stopping people in the street and demanding to read their text messages, this could be vital to protect individuals from reprisals. At its heart, Telegram is little more than a messaging app like WhatsApp or Signal. But it also offers open channels that enable a single user, or a group of users, to communicate with large numbers in a method similar to a Twitter account. This has proven to be both a blessing and a curse for Telegram and its users, since these channels can be used for both good and ill. Right now, as Wired reports, the app is a key way for Ukrainians to receive updates from the government during the invasion. Crude oil prices edged higher after tumbling on Thursday, when U.S. West Texas intermediate slid back below $110 per barrel after topping as much as $130 a barrel in recent sessions. Still, gas prices at the pump rose to fresh highs. The last couple days have exemplified that uncertainty. On Thursday, news emerged that talks in Turkey between the Russia and Ukraine yielded no positive result.
