Azovstal defender's wife Mariupol is Aleppo

 Military operations in the city are reminiscent of the Second World War.

The military operations in Mariupol and directly at Azovstal are reminiscent of the events of the Second World War or the Syrian city of Aleppo in terms of the nature of the destruction.

According to an UNIAN correspondent, Yulia, the wife of military Arseniy Fedosyuk, said this during a press conference .

"In general, this can be correctly compared with the events that took place during the Second World War, if we talk about Europe. If we compare it with closer to us, then this is Syria. Mariupol is Aleppo, this did not happen in Europe at all after 1945 It's unprecedented," she said.

.....................

As UNIAN reported earlier, Mariupol is almost completely under the control of Russian troops. However, Ukrainian defenders in super-heavy conditions keep the defense at the Azovstal plant.

After the evacuation of civilians from the Azovstal catacombs in Mariupol, Russian troops continue their attempts to seize the plant where Ukrainian soldiers are defending. The occupiers carry out rocket and bomb strikes on the territory of the plant and carry out assault operations with the help of artillery and tanks.

According to President Volodymyr Zelensky, influential mediators and states have been involved to save the Ukrainian military stationed at Azovstal. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine claims that the operation to release the plant will require significant efforts and a large number of troops.

On May 11, Deputy Prime Minister Vereshchuk said that about a thousand more fighters could be on the territory of Azovstal, half of them seriously wounded.

On May 12, she reported that negotiations were underway to release only 38 seriously wounded fighters.

On May 13, Zelensky announced that Ukraine was offering Russia various mechanisms for the removal of Ukrainian fighters from the Azovstal plant with President Putin, the President of Finland would talk about this. It is about rescuing the living and removing the bodies of the dead.

Today it became known that the Russian invaders for the first time dropped phosphorus or incendiary bombs on Azovstal in Mariupol .

The infrastructure of the club has been destroyed, contracts with the players have been suspended.
Mariupol head coach Ostap Markevich said the club would miss the next championship, Ukrinform reports.

“I know, for example, that Mariupol will not participate in the next championship. Our entire infrastructure is destroyed, this year it will be impossible to fund the team.

As far as I know, management decided to take a break. I don't know what will happen next. Perhaps something will change. Contracts with football players have been suspended for today,” Markevich commented.

As Ukrinform reported, on the morning of February 24, Russia launched rocket attacks on Ukrainian cities, and then launched a large-scale invasion. The war against Russia has been going on for 81 days.

Russian troops dropped incendiary or phosphorus bombs on Mariupol. This was announced in his telegram channel by the adviser to the mayor of Mariupol, Petr Andryushchenko.

"Yesterday, for the first time, the invaders used incendiary or phosphorus bombs against the defenders of Mariupol (withdrawal to the remaining specialists). The invaders themselves claim that 9M22S incendiary shells with thermite layers were used. The combustion temperature is about 2-2.5 thousand degrees Celsius. It is almost impossible to stop the burning ", he wrote.

Note that the use of phosphorus munitions is prohibited by the Geneva Convention.

Recall that the beginning of the war, the defenders of Mariupol destroyed about 6 thousand Russian soldiers and more than 100 units of enemy armored vehicles.

REVIEW: Monstrous’ Skillful Period Horror Is Haunted By Underdeveloped Themes

 Monstrous delivers an interesting period piece with solid performances, but would have benefited from a focus on its themes instead of twists.


Period horror has become one of the genre's latest trends, and with Monstrous, the '50s are explored with an eerie undertone that is hard to ignore. Perfectly playing up the decade it's depicting, Monstrous is a twisty film that starts off in one world but ends somewhere entirely different. The story is a mystery that never truly gets solved, and while that sometimes benefits the movie, the ambiguity confuses the film by the end. The central monster in this film is effective but could have been explored more. At its core, Monstrous is a mind-bending indie horror flick that deals with timely themes but ends up getting consumed by its own vagueness.


Directed by Chris Sivertson from a script by Carol Chrest, Monstrous stars Christina Ricci as Laura, a mother who flees her abusive husband with her son to an isolated, lakeside house. Soon, Laura's son Cody (Santino Barnard) starts to get visits from a ghostly presence that he calls the lady of the lake. Laura faces pressure from her new job, her landlords, and her husband's attempts to find her and Cody. However, none of that compares to the horrors she will have to face when protecting her son from supernatural forces.

Monstrous does a good amount of things right, and one of them is depicting the '50s. From Ricci's costume design to the soundtrack, the film feels like a time capsule. Ricci's performance is another big highlight. An accomplished actress whose career seems to be in the early stages of a kind of renaissance period, Ricci delivers a dynamic performance that shows both finesse and a commitment to go all out. Laura seems to hold everything together so well, but by the end, it's clear that she has been slowly unraveling on the inside throughout the whole movie. Ricci conveys this and more, further proving that she is a force to be reckoned with.

With that said, Monstrous struggles with pacing and the overall delivery of its content. The film kind of wanders around, becoming less engaging in its middle. In a lot of ways, it feels like a half-baked version of The Babadook, attempting similar ideas but faltering more often. The film depicts feminism in a time when it wasn't accepted, and the horrors Laura faces sometimes serve as a metaphor for the horror she has to deal with in real life as a strong woman who no one wants to take seriously. However, these interesting themes are never fully realized, especially after the film goes off-kilter with multiple twists that almost completely derail the movie.


The monster of the film is highly effective, reminiscent of old-school monsters with a modern twist, but it's not present in the film enough. When Monstrous works, it's a fun love letter to the monster movies of the past with something to say, but when it doesn't, it feels tedious and confused. Overall, Monstrous is an interesting effort that could have been something a bit more memorable if it focused on its central themes instead of becoming convoluted by fluff and a silly final act twist.

Actor Fred Ward has died, according to his publicist, Ron Hofmann.

The star, who brought gentlemanly gruffness to films that included The Right Stuff, Henry and June and The Player died Sunday, May 8 at the age of 79. No cause of death was given.


Ward brought reservoirs of tenderness to his tough guy roles, and plenty of street credibility. A former boxer, lumberjack and short-order cook who served in the U.S. Air Force, Ward went to acting school and got his start when he moved to Rome as a young man and worked as a mime, then a voice-over actor. That led to a few appearances in TV productions by Italian neorealist pioneer Roberto Rossellini. Ward made his U.S. movie debut as a convict alongside Clint Eastwood in Escape from Alcatraz in 1979.


"The unique thing about Fred Ward is that you never knew where he was going to pop up, so unpredictable were his career choices," Hofmann wrote in an email. "He could play such diverse characters as Remo Williams, a cop trained by Chiun, Master of Sinanju (Joel Grey) to become an unstoppable assassin in Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins, or Earl Bass, who, alongside Kevin Bacon, battle giant, worm-like monsters hungry for human flesh in 'cult' horror/comedy film, Tremors (1990), or a detective in the indie film Two Small Bodies (1993) directed by underground filmmaker Beth B., or a terrorist planning to blow up the Academy Awards in The Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult (1994), or the father of the lead character in Jennifer Lopez's revenge thriller Enough (2002)."


Fred Ward, the versatile character actor who starred in films like Tremors, The Right Stuff and Henry & June during a career that spanned five decades, has died at the age of 79. Ward’s rep, Ron Hoffman, confirmed the actor’s May 8 death in a statement, though no cause of death was provided.

An Air Force veteran and amateur boxer before becoming an actor — his tough guy look and gruff exterior was attained thanks to a few broken noses in the ring — Ward was equally adept when featuring in dramas, comedies and action films: His credits also include Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins, Naked Gun 33 1/3: The Final Insult, Joe Dirt and Road Trip.


“The unique thing about Fred Ward is that you never knew where he was going to pop up, so unpredictable were his career choices,” Hoffman said in a statement.


After studying acting in Rome and dubbing Italian films into English, Ward made his first major on-screen appearance with a role in the Clint Eastwood-starring Escape From Alcatraz in 1979. His first starring role was as the titular character in the 1982 film Timerider: The Adventure of Lyle Swann, a sci-fi Western written by the Monkees’ Michael Nesmith; ironically, both Ward and Nesmith were born on the same day, Dec. 30, 1942.


Ward also portrayed astronaut Virgil “Gus” Grissom in Philip Kaufman’s hit adaptation of The Right Stuff and, seven years later, reunited with the director to play author Henry Miller in the drama Henry & June, the first-ever film to receive the MPAA’s then-new NC-17 rating in 1990. 


That same year saw Ward star in two more of his best-known on-screen roles: As hard-boiled cop Hank Moseley in the adaptation of Charles Willeford’s Miami Blues — a film that Ward himself produced after acquiring the novel’s rights — and as handyman Earl Bassett alongside Kevin Bacon in the cult horror comedy Tremors. (Ward would return to that role in the direct-to-video sequel Tremors 2: The Aftershock.)


The actor also enjoyed a lengthy collaboration with his friend Robert Altman, appearing in the legendary director’s The Player, Bob Roberts and Short Cuts.


Ward continued to act on both the big and small screens through the 2000s, making guest appearances on ER, Grey’s Anatomy, United States of Tara and Leverage. His last role was a two-episode stint on the first season of HBO’s True Detective.

Tina Karol in a patriotic top flew to Japan: she was met by a billionaire with a bouquet of sunflowers

 Tina Karol continues to support Ukraine. On May 14, the artist is due to give her first concert in Japan.

Karol flew to Tokyo and shared several pictures on her social networks. At the airport, the singer was met by Japanese businessman and billionaire Hiroshi Mikitani.......... He did not meet empty-handed, but presented Tina with a bouquet of sunflowers. The singer was dressed in a white top with a yellow-blue heart embroidered on the chest from the Ukrainian brand Siyai , which is called “Heart”. The cost of such a top is 900 hryvnia.

The Japanese billionaire who owns the popular Rakuten Viber messenger donated $8.7 million to our country on the second day of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. In the caption under the pictures posted on Instagram and Facebook, Tina wrote: "Extremely grateful to the great friend of Ukraine, philanthropist Hiroshi Mikitani for supporting Ukraine! To be continued."

Hiroshi Mikitani also posted on his Instagram about Karol's visit.

In the Japanese media, Karol was called "Ukrainian Britney Spears." Here is what they write: “Tina Karol appeared in the airport lobby after 20:00 and spoke to the press: “Ukraine is screaming. On behalf of my native country, I want to appeal to how beautiful and courageous it is. Thanks to everyone in Japan for their support. I believe that my country can be restored," Karol said in English.

Tina will perform as a special guest at the "Rakuten Girls Award" on May 14 and sing for the audience.

Popular Ukrainian singer Tina Karol, who takes part in charity projects around the world, went to Japan. At the airport, the famous Japanese businessman and billionaire Hiroshi Mikitani met the star with a bouquet of sunflowers. On the second day of the Russian invasion, Nikitani, who owns the popular Rakuten Viber messenger, donated $8.7 million to Ukraine.

“I am extremely grateful to the great friend of Ukraine, philanthropist Hiroshi Nikitana for supporting Ukraine! To be continued, ” wrote Tina Karol under a joint photo.

In Tokyo, Tina Karol is scheduled to perform, as well as meet with officials and diplomats.

The singer is actively involved in charity work to support Ukraine during the war. In Warsaw, she organized the headquarters of the information resistance, and also took part in a patriotic performance during the football matches of our teams.

Tina Karol, who was in Germany two days ago, flew to Japan. At the airport, the star was met by her fans with the Ukrainian flag - the pool of Karol's fans is really huge, even in Japan they are.

To reporters and fans, the artist got off the plane in a knitted T-shirt with a yellow-black heart.

But the main thing was ahead: at the Tokyo airport, Karol was met by Japanese businessman and billionaire Hiroshi Mikitani. He gave the singer a bouquet of yellow sunflowers.

" I am extremely grateful to the great friend of Ukraine, philanthropist Hiroshi Nikitana for supporting Ukraine! To be continued," wrote Tina Karol in her social networks.

As you know, already on the third day of the war, Nikitani, who owns Rakuten, which controls the popular Ukrainian messenger Viber, donated $8.7 million to Ukraine. Most likely, his meeting with the Ukrainian singer will entail some kind of charitable mission.

Vesti.ua found out that Tina Karol is scheduled to perform in Tokyo, as well as meetings with officials and diplomats. Recall that the singer in wartime is actively involved in charitable activities to support Ukraine during the war. So on March 20, Karol performed in Poland at the festival “Together with Ukraine” . And on May 8, in Berlin, Tina Karol and Ukrainian Ambassador to Germany Andriy Melnyk took part in a commemorative event of laying flowers at the Tiergarten memorial on the occasion of the Day of Remembrance and Reconciliation, as well as the 77th anniversary of the liberation of Europe from National Socialism.
