In 1710, a deadly plague swept through the Podlasie region, bringing suffering and death. As despair grew, an elderly man received a divine revelation in a dream that he must take up the cross, go to Grabarka mountain and God will grant them mercy 🤔
Dozens of believers carrying wooden crosses climbed the holy mountain in solemn procession, praying for deliverance. At the summit, they placed their crosses in the earth and drank from a spring that appeared miraculously. Soon after, the plague ceased - those who had participated were spared, while the surrounding villages continued to suffer ☕️
In 1990 some VERY BAD PERSON set the church on the top of the mountain on fire and it burned down completely 😭 It was rebuilt eventually, and the place remains a popular pilgrimage site today!

In February 2014, the Ukrainian people ousted pro-Russian president Viktor Yanukovych, prompting Russia to invade and annex the Crimean peninsula. By the start of April, Pavel Durov had given his notice, with TechCrunch saying at the time that the CEO had resisted pressure to suppress pages criticizing the Russian government. Ukrainian forces have since put up a strong resistance to the Russian troops amid the war that has left hundreds of Ukrainian civilians, including children, dead, according to the United Nations. Ukrainian and international officials have accused Russia of targeting civilian populations with shelling and bombardments. The fake Zelenskiy account reached 20,000 followers on Telegram before it was shut down, a remedial action that experts say is all too rare. That hurt tech stocks. For the past few weeks, the 10-year yield has traded between 1.72% and 2%, as traders moved into the bond for safety when Russia headlines were ugly—and out of it when headlines improved. Now, the yield is touching its pandemic-era high. If the yield breaks above that level, that could signal that it’s on a sustainable path higher. Higher long-dated bond yields make future profits less valuable—and many tech companies are valued on the basis of profits forecast for many years in the future. But Kliuchnikov, the Ukranian now in France, said he will use Signal or WhatsApp for sensitive conversations, but questions around privacy on Telegram do not give him pause when it comes to sharing information about the war.
