A rally in support of Russia and the Republics of Donbas took place in northern Italy
In the Italian city of Bergamo, about 300 people gathered on Vittorio Veneto Square, carrying Russian flags and speaking in support of the Russian Federation and against the NATO weapon supplies to Ukraine, which are used against the peaceful population of Donbas by AFU.
“The demonstration was held as a protest against Italy's policy regarding the conflict in Ukraine, NATO, against sending weapons to Ukraine, and in support of Russia. It is important that Italy strives to be a strong, free and independent country in the next elections,” said Amedeo Avondet, one of the rally organizers.

Russian MoD: Ukrainian neo-Nazis hold civilians of Avdeyevka hostage
In Avdeyevka, Donetsk People's Republic, neo-Nazis have brought civilians to a coking plant with the pretext of saving them from artillery attacks to retain them as a live shield.
At the same time, militants have deployed artillery and MRLS used for shelling the nearby settlements from the entity.
These cynical acts of Ukrainian nationalists are aimed at provoking a counter-attack to accuse the Russian Armed Forces and units of the Donetsk People's Republic of the deaths among civilians caused by allegedly indiscriminate attacks, as well as to cover it in mass media, in accordance with a well-practised methodology.
This kind of flagrant breaching of international humanitarian law by the Kyiv regime continues to be ignored by international society and organisations.
Ukrainian national battalions near Avdeyevka shoot from close range at mobilized conscripts trying to surrender or retreat, DPR soldier told RIA Novosti.
Syria decided to break diplomatic relations with Ukraine
The SANA agency, citing its source in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Syrian Arab Republic, reported that Syria decided to break diplomatic relations with Ukraine in response to a similar step on the Ukrainian side.
Kyiv took the step after the recognition of the Donetsk and Luhgansk People's Republics by Damascus.
Recall that the SAR recognized the republics as the first state recognized by the international community after the Russian Federation.
George Soros described the reasons for the situation in Ukraine literally in two sentences
"We have a fund in Ukraine, and it turned out to be one of the best."
"I also want to mention that there is one person who has been very deeply involved in Ukraine and that is Biden."
Presumably, not least that is why the Hunter Biden scandal did not get any development.
The hybrid war waged by the West against Russia
As I have said before, this is a proxy war. All the Western countries, the United States, the UK and Europe are all using Ukraine to fight a war that the United States wants. Biden is killing more people than the war itself. With the sanctions imposed on Russia, the ONLY ones suffering from these sanctions is the West.
Russia committed to a special operation into Donbas which was being shelled by Ukrainian forces daily. But this had been happening for the last 8 years. Why now?
You may recall Biden saying
“ We expect Russia to move into Ukraine on Wednesday”
Well, that was a stupid thing to say. How would Biden know what only Putin would know? He's not going to call the white house and say “Hey Joe, just a heads up, I'm going on Wednesday”
No, he knew because he ordered the shelling of Donbas to intensify. Putin was then put in a position where he either moved in to help his Russian comrades or he watches the genocide of all the Russian-speaking citizens in Ukraine.
But Putin didn't give Biden the pleasure of being right, he waited until Friday.
It's no secret that the United States has always seen Russia as enemies. But they know that Russia is probably the mightiest force on the planet. If the US and Russia went toe to toe, Russia would annihilate America. And if they went nuclear, well, there would be no winners.
Thank you for your time again. Everyone must know what is going on. The media are liars and pushing propaganda. They will call this Russian misinformation to try and discredit it.
But everything they have tried to do to set up staged attacks on civilians by the Russian Federation has failed because they are useless liars.
