I tempted fate by saying I was hoping for sleep. Soon enough alarms were sounding in the south of #Ukraine.
Suspected cruise missiles launched from #Russia's Black Sea Fleet, and #Odesa has reported explosions. Hopefully it's just air defence.

Good morning, welcome to Daily Thread number 465 covering #Ukraine's heroic defence against #Russia's illegal aggression.
I've been here from (before) the start of war, reporting on (sometimes from) a country I've loved, worked + lectured in many, many times.
Overnight was quiet

The biggest event overnight happened in #Russia's #Krasnodar region.
Drones hit the Afipsky Oil Refinery and a fire soon took hold, although it's since been extinguished; no-one was hurt.
About 150km from the front, that's less fuel helping Russia kill Ukrainians.

But later the #Ukraine President's Office later "clarified" they were still holding a position in the town.

First a strange tale from the far east of #Russia where a private helicopter cut through power lines during a "hard landing"
The Mi-2's landing cut off power to the Transneft station in Primorsky Krai.
It's so remote it took 2 days to find the chopper & the pilot's disappeared!
