Pensioners in freezing Kyiv. News about protests in Iran. Portuguese news channel.

You're watching news from the weekly rally in front of the Russian Embassy in Lisbon. Today is January 24th, 2:30 PM.

On January 24, The Associated Press published a story about how pensioners are living in Kyiv, which is freezing after Russian attacks on the power grid. With temperatures as low as -10°C, there is often no power or heat for most of the day, and elevators in high-rise buildings are frequently out of order. People in their 50s and 70s are forced to climb the stairs to the 22nd floor. Some, due to illness, can’t even walk to the store, and to stay warm, they heat bricks with candles and use them for warmth while they’re still hot. In upscale neighborhoods, residents pool funds to buy generators to keep the elevators running. But in most neighborhoods where pensioners live, this is unaffordable.

I’ll remind you about the fundraising campaign for generators for hospitals and schools in Ukraine. Link in the description.

Recently, some Iranian acquaintances showed me a Telegram channel where they publish videos documenting the crimes of the ayatollah regime in Iran. The channel is called "Kiane Melli 1," which can be translated as "National Identity." Despite rumors that the uprising in Iran has been suppressed, this channel publishes daily evidence of the regime’s horrific crimes, hidden under a spoiler even on Telegram. It also shows the strong resistance that essentially unarmed people are putting up against the forces of a paramilitary organization within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps.

ABC News reported on Iran's Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi's speech in Washington on January 16. Alongside sanctions, communications assistance, and a transit plan for Iran, he also said that, without the infamous "boots on the ground," a surgical strike against the IRGC command structure could be helpful.

The day is approaching when Alexei Navalny was poisoned in Putin's prison two years ago. On February 16 at 6 PM, we will gather at his memorial to remember his sacrifice and his fight against the Putin regime—for a better future for Russians and against the war in Ukraine.
