It's day 307 of #Russia's full invasion of #Ukraine.

Welcome along to Tuesday's daily news thread.

In complete contrast to yesterday there is very little news to report.

This in itself has to be good news with not a single report of missiles or shelling so far and it's almost 6am in #Ukraine.
The de-Nazification/russification of #Ukraine continues.

In liberated #Izium 19 streets have changed names to shed Russian links. The town in #Kharkiv now honours Steve Jobs and Golda Meir instead. Meir, the 4th Prime Minister of Israel was born in #Kyiv.
