The European bison came very close to total extinction, but thanks to conservation and rewilding efforts they can again be found across central and western Europe. As far back as the 15th century they were protected from poaching and fed in winter, and as recently as 2022 a wild bison calf was born in the UK for the first time in millennia. ©Wildlife World

Dozens of Ukrainian children from a Russian-occupied city in Ukraine were taken to Belarus and sent to “emergency survival training” with the Belarusian military, according to local media.
The Belarus 4 Mogilev state television channel reported on Wednesday that 35 children from the city of Antratsyt in eastern Ukraine, which Russia has occupied since 2014, were sent to the eastern Belarusian city of Mogilev, where they were taught “how to behave in extreme situations” in exercises with the Belarusian military.
In the report, the children — some of whom are wearing tracksuits with Russian flags printed on their sleeves — are shown holding on to each other and covering their faces during a fire drill.
Thousands of Ukrainian children have been deported to Russia and Belarus from Russian-occupied parts of Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion in February 2022. In July 2023, Russian Children’s Commissioner Maria Lvova-Belova put the figure of Ukrainian children “received” by Russia at 700,000, claiming most were accompanied by their parents or other relatives.
A study by Yale University found that between September 2022 and May 2023, over 2,400 Ukrainian children aged 6 to 17 were deported to Belarus from the Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson and Zaporizhzhia regions of Ukraine, which are occupied by Russian forces.
Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko met with a group of deported Ukrainian kids last month, promising to “embrace these children, bring them to our home, keep them warm and make their childhood happier.”
In March 2023, the International Criminal Court (ICC) in The Hague issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin and Lvova-Belova, accusing them of overseeing the “unlawful deportation” of Ukrainian children.

GREEN HELL
image 2: wake up & pack ur shit cause someone in the Green Hell between poland and belarus needs help. 
image 3: gotta hide in the wet bushes from border patrol, but u just navigated an hour thru swamp so it doesn't make a difference at this point. soaked is soaked.
image 4: You don't risk a headlamp in these woods. its slow going but otherwise you'd never notice the blue glow of some fungi. 
image 5: The Folks you meet don't share your language, but indicate razor wire injuries from the crossing. A red light is needed to treat the wounds, and while the rest of the group drinks the tea and trades in their soaked gear, you try to ask why they left home. Only a few recognizable words but you've heard this story before.
image 6: The next day, a local with good knowledge of the Green Hell shows you some choice forest snacks, and on your way home you pass the fence where last night's wet boots dry. This place, and the people of this place give. so. much. The forest isn't naturally a refugee meat grinder, the state had to work really hard to turn it into one.
-----
for the last few years, Poland and Belarus are chewing up people trying to make their way into the EU. maiming, starving, killing, dividing families, and imprisoning whoever doesn't match their criteria for human. Even despite changing out their last ruling party for a gentler liberaler party, Poland has been diligently performing its role in the violence outsourced to them by the rest of Fortress Europe. dedicated anarchists and grupa ganica together with other kooks, punks, sweethearts, locals and internationals have been throwing down against their own kurwa government - on this front and others. i love them hella
