Smelyansky has wasted no time in capitalising on the predictive powers of philately. He shows me designs for successor stamps, to be chosen again by popular decision. One features police dragging away Putin and the words “War criminal arrested”. Another depicts a burning Red Square. The winner – with 8,000 votes cast in its favour – turns out to be a Ukrainian tractor towing a destroyed Russian tank with the slogan: “Good evening, we are from Ukraine.”

Harry and Meghan’s bombshell Netflix documentary today unleashed a series of incendiary claims labelling Britain a ‘racist’ country – and linking the debate over Brexit to racism and ‘horrible views’. The commandos established that the priests were unarmed, and separated them. Vyrozub tried to hide his phone, unsuccessfully. It contained photos of him with several generals and the head of the Ukrainian navy. He was loaded on to a cutter and transported to Sevastopol. As they sailed, a Russian special forces officer told him he would be released when Putin’s “military operation” was finished. Vyrozub pointed out that this might take months, or maybe a year. The officer was amused. Slapping himself on the forehead, he pointed to the cruiser Moskva, visible out on the grey sea, a great unstoppable shark. Earlier in the month, Ukraine authorities said any seized Russian tanks wouldn’t need to be declared for tax purposes. “Have you captured a Russian tank or armoured personnel carrier and are worried about how to declare it? Keep calm and continue to defend the motherland!” Ukraine’s National Agency for the Protection against Corruption (NAPC) said. People are in love with it,” Smelyansky tells me. Even when the air-raid sirens sound, people refuse to leave their place in the line.” He says he asked the public for suggestions for a stamp in the first days of the war. A shortlist of 50 designs was put to a vote; the warship was the triumphant winner. “It was democratic, just like Ukraine,” he says. On 13 April 2022, Ukrainian presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych and Odesa governor Maksym Marchenko said that Moskva had been hit by two Neptune anti-ship missiles and was on fire in rough seas. [28] A source at the Pentagon in the US later confirmed that Moskva had been hit by Ukrainian missiles. [29] Russian state-owned news agencies said the ship was badly damaged and its crew was evacuated due to a "fire" from "detonated ammunition." [30] The ship sank while being towed to a naval base. [31] Russian troops were garrisoned on the island until late June 2022, when the Ukrainian military successfully retook the island. [32] The island currently houses a small observational detachment under Ukrainian control. [33] Reception [ edit ]

In March the priest was taken to an airfield, along with 200 other detainees. Many, like him, were civilians. They were loaded into an Ilyushin Il-76 military cargo plane. Destination: Russia.

Son of a Whore: You could call someone a son of a whore (ijo de puta) or maybe just a liar ( lamparoso – literally the person who is lamp). A day after leaving Snake Island, Russia pummelled it with phosphorus munitions. The museum – with its amphorae and old ship’s compass – was no more, its exhibits turned to dust. The lighthouse was broken, too. The Kremlin, it seemed, cared nothing for culture, ancient and modern. Five months on, it remains within reach of Russian guns and is currently uninhabited. But Snake Island is free again. And it is Ukrainian. I have not yet begun to fight!” Attributed to John Paul Jones at the Battle of Flamborough Head in response to a British offer of surrender.

He was, after all, a civilian engaged on a humanitarian mission. The Russians didn’t see it that way. They shoved him and two dozen other non-combatants into a minivan and drove them at gunpoint to a naval watchtower. Over the next 11 days he was interrogated up to three times a day.

The same month saw the release of the two other priests and the medic. Vyrozub began to despair, wondering if he would ever be freed. He got out in May, in a similar prisoner swap. He was 15kg lighter: the result of “terrible” food. I wonder if he can forgive his tormentors. “I was sorry for them. It was a paradoxical situation. I was freer than the escorts who guarded me. At the end of the day they had to stay in a big prison. That prison is Russia,” he replies.
