From@andrii_sybihaRussia once again struck a civilian sunflower oil production facility in Dnipro, owned by the American agribusiness giant Bunge. At least two people were killed, and the plant sustained serious damage. This is no coincidence, but part of Moscow’s systematic terror campaign against American businesses and economic interests. It comes just a few weeks after an attack on another American-owned company in the Sumy region. Such strikes underscore the urgent need to strengthen Ukrainian air defenses and increase pressure on the Russian regime to force an end to the war and engage in meaningful diplomacy.

From@ArlietasForeign Minister @Braze_Baiba and Ireland's Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade @HMcEntee expand cooperation between the two parties in support of Ukraine by signing a declaration of intent 🇱🇻🤝🇮🇪 The declarations provide that Ireland joins two Latvian-initiated Ukraine support projects in the amount of €800,000. Involvement of €600,000 is planned for support of women and children affected by the war, while €200,000 is intended for the reconstruction project of a psychoneurological hospital. The cooperation will be administered by @CFLA_gov_lv, and the project implementers are the Centre MARTA and the fund "Entrepreneurs for Peace". This cooperation helps strengthen Ukraine's 🇺🇦 resilience and promotes its recovery. 📸 Photo: Laura Celmiņa, Ministry of Foreign Affairs

This is interesting and makes one think about the peculiarities of human logic when many write - well, I won't vote for MMN because Hermanis is this and that, and gets on my nerves, and there's also someone suspect in that list! Because the case with MMN is that here is an opportunity to change the election law and get out of the vicious circle with those old pajolu parties and hold new elections under new rules. Where at last one votes for a person, not a party. That's why I'm not important here at all. And it has nothing to do with my character or hairstyle. For all I care, voters could put a minus next to my name, I really don't care. Because here the message is important, not the messenger. If we want to buy something in a store, we don't care about the seller's views. So I urge everyone - on 3 October come to the elections and cross out Alvis Hermanis from list No. 2.

@ltvzinas And why only now, but not three years ago? Because you know you won't be in this position anymore... But yes, I support this.
From@ltvzinasThe State Audit Office should be allowed to audit the Saeima in the general order, said Saeima Speaker Daiga Mieriņa on 'Morning Panorama'. 'Society expects that we are also equal with everyone else, not higher and untouchable.'

From@liana_langaAlthough the Sovereign Power @RigasDome deputies have already received a warning from @KNABinforme and a call not to violate the pre-election agitation law, at today's extraordinary council meeting they continued to demonstrate arbitrariness and that they publicly sneeze at the admonitions of Latvia's state law enforcement institutions!
