Elderly Ukrainian woman kills Russian soldiers with poisoned pie

Mar 20 2022

Around 8 Russian soldiers have reportedly been killed after they were fed a poisoned pie by an elderly Ukrainian woman.

A Ukrainian official allegedly shared the report via mobile communication after intercepting a phone call between a Russian soldier and his girlfriend back home.

In it, the Russian soldier explained to his loved one how some of his brothers in arms were fed a pie by a Ukrainian woman after they had been starving.

The pie was however poisoned, resulting in the death of around 8 soldiers. It is unclear how the woman managed to get the pie to the soldiers, and official confirmations as to the incident are as of yet unreleased.

The news was met with considerably mixed reactions, but many highlighted that it could in fact constitute a war crime on the part of the woman.

The war in Ukraine continues on as millions flee their home country to seek refuge in other lands. Recent developments indicate some progress in negotiations between the country leaders, but Putin’s forces are still not retreating back, extending the suffering of millions.

Addressing a political meeting in New 31 Bar in Birkirkara, small party leader Zaren tal-Ajkla revealed that he is extending the implants pledge to men as well.

Yes, you read that correctly. First explaining how a woman who wishes to have breast implants shouldn’t be deprived of the possibility, Zaren Bonnici said that men will be given financial aid to grow any body part they would like.

Whereas women will be given €4,000, men will be given a still hefty sum of €3,000 to utilise in any way they wish when it comes to surgery. The reveal was met with many cheers by those attending his political rally.

Speaking at the bar, the meeting was set to take place outside but was moved indoors due to bad weather. Zaren said he is proud to represent women through this pledge and that, unlike the major parties using tents, he interacts with the Maltese people personally.

Belgium’s carnival-goers were subject to unfortunate tragedy after a car crashed into a crowd of early celebrators on Sunday.

Four people were confirmed killed during the incident, seriously injuring 20 others, authorities confirmed.

La Louviere mayor Jacques Gobert told Belga news agency that a car driving at high speed ran into the crowd that gathered to attend the carnival at around 5am (0400 GMT).

The carnival was set to kick off celebrations in Strepy-Bracquegnies, a district of the former industrial town of La Louviere. The vehicle collided with around 100 people who left the sports hall to go back to the centre of the village.

The public’s prosecutor’s office did not wish to communicate on the case for the time being, but more information is expected later in the day.
