This year marks a profound milestone: 35 years since Ukraine declared its independence in August 24, 1991. For the people of Namibia, who celebrated their own hard-won Independence just a year prior in 1990, the value of sovereignty, self-determination and national identity is not an abstract concept. It is the bedrock of our dignity.

We say thank you.

Thank you to everyone who has shown empathy, to every individual who refuses to let deception cloud their judgment. Your support is the fuel for our hope. Together, as a global community, we must stop the aggression that threatens the very nature of humanity, ensuring our children inherit a world of science, art and freedom. Not one of trenches and lies.
We share a common future: a world anchored in democracy, respect for sovereignty and human progress, rather than one ruled by medieval force.

Thank you very much Republikein for brining this to the public.

Grandma waiting for her grandson

Today, we grieve.
Another brutal russian attack has taken at least 16 lives of innocent Ukrainians - fathers, mothers, children, heroes.

As believers, we cry out to God not only in sorrow, but in hope. We remember that He is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and that every tear shed is seen and remembered by Him (Psalm 56:8).

The people of Ukraine have endured more than the world should bear witness to - but they continue to show faith, resilience, and courage. In the face of destruction, they rebuild. In the face of death, they cling to life.

And we believe in a God who will one day bring justice, wipe away every tear, and make all things new (Revelation 21:4). Until then, we stand in prayer. We stand in love. We stand with Ukraine.

“The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble” (Psalm 9:9).

As Andrii Sybiha stated in his post, a horrible and sleepless night in Kyiv. This was one of the most brutal Russian attacks to date, with ballistic missiles raining down on our capital one after another.

A school, a children’s hospital, and residential buildings were severely damaged. Russia also attacked Chernihiv and Odesa regions.

With such horrific war crimes Putin wants to demonstrate complete impunity. Each Russian ballistic missile is an act of barbarism. And each interceptor delivered to Ukraine is an act of humanity and saved human lives.

We know partners who can deliver these interceptors, and we urge them once again to act without delay. Every delay is measured in human lives.

We are informing all states and international organizations of the consequences of this attack, and we urge them to take immediate, concrete steps to intensify pressure on Russia and bolster support for Ukraine.

I urge Ukrainians abroad to take action.

We are calling on the Ukrainian World Congress, as well as all Ukrainian organizations and communities in key capitals and around the world, to raise their voices now.

We call for three critical measures to protect human lives:

- Deliver air defense: Transfer or sell additional interceptors and air defense systems to Ukraine.

- Tighten sanctions: Increase sanctions pressure to cripple Russia’s ability to manufacture these instruments of terror.

- Build defense capabilities: Partner with Ukraine to develop anti-ballistic capabilities.

They were the Voronovs. Another 🇺🇦 family destroyed overnight.

Mom, dad, seven children, one grandchild (18 months old) - killed. Survived by three grown children. One serving in the army.

Congrats, Russia! Your “surgical strikes” do their diabolical work!

From the frontline to hospitals across the country, Ukraine’s medical workers save lives under extraordinary circumstances. This Medical Workers’ Day, we honour their bravery and unwavering dedication.

Military medics work at frontline stabilisation points, treating the wounded under the constant threat of Russian strikes. Ambulance crews and emergency teams rush to the sites of Russian missile and drone attacks, where every minute can mean the difference between life and death.

Across Ukraine, surgeons perform complex operations after devastating injuries. Rehabilitation specialists help people learn to walk again and rebuild their lives. Doctors continue treating cancer, heart disease, and countless other illnesses despite the challenges of wartime. Nurses provide round-the-clock care, while laboratory staff, pharmacists, therapists, technicians, and many others keep the entire healthcare system running.

A Russian missile struck a residential building in the Ukrainian city, destroying homes and lives.

But among the rubble, one detail stood out: a sign reading “Etosha.”

Someone who lived in this apartment had once visited Namibia and cherished memories of it enough to keep them on their wall.

It is a reminder that the victims of this Russian war against Ukraine are ordinary people with dreams, memories, and connections that reach far beyond Ukraine.

Today, a piece of Namibia lies among the ruins of a Ukrainian home đź’”

July 16, 1991. Kyiv, Ukraine. Women dressed in the national costumes celebrated the first anniversary of the Declaration of State Sovereignty of Ukraine in the Independence Square.

On July 16, 1990, the Verkhovna Rada (Supreme Council or Parliament) of the Ukrainian SSR adopted Ukraine’s Declaration of State Sovereignty. While Ukraine was still a part of the Soviet Union then, this document was a crucial step forward on the Road to Independence.

In just one year, on August 24, 1991, the Verkhovna Rada adopted the Declaration of Independence of Ukraine.

1,600 days. What was supposed to be a “3‑day operation” has become an endless imperialist terror.
1,600 days of a tragedy that affects every Ukrainian, no matter where we live.

Having lost the military initiative on the battlefield, Russia has shifted to a tactic of pure terror against civilians. According to the United Nations, May and June of this year saw the highest number of civilian casualties in Ukraine since the very first months of the 2022 invasion. Russian missiles and drones are deliberately targeting densely populated urban areas.

And our soldies were never professional military men. They were teachers, IT specialists, farmers, and artists. They just wanted to live their lives and raise their children. They never chose this life. They were forced to defend their homes.

These ordinary people are now fighting not just for our survival, but for the very world we all take for granted. A world where you can speak your mind freely - to your neighbors, in the press, or on social media. Without the fear of being jailed. People who have spent their whole lives in free countries often cannot even fathom the suffocating reality of living under a dictatorship. Yet, Ukrainian soldiers are paying with their lives so that this darkness doesn't spread further.

But what shocks us even more is the global reach of this propaganda. How did this sect manage to blind people and to swallow those who have access to independent journalism and world news? Some say “it's just politics.”

This is not politics. These are human lives. Yes - it’s far away. Yes - it’s been long, and people are tired. But we cannot stay silent.

People in Namibia know what imperialist wars do to nations. Ukraine is living it now.

1,600 days is too long to look away. Neutrality in the face of aggression is siding with the oppressor. Stand with the truth. Stand against colonial war.
