Welcome to another daily thread covering #Russia's illegal war in #Ukraine.

It's Wednesday 9 November, Day 259
The relative quiet of the previous 36 hours has ended, especially in #Dnipro.

To catch up on y'day's news, click and scroll here:

One of the biggest stories for #Ukraine is what's happening in the USA. As I type the Republicans look set to take control of the House, but with a very small majority, while the GOP looks likely to FAIL to take control of the Senate

That should mean no reduction in #Ukraine aid

Kamikaze drones have hit the city of #Dnipro.

There are reports of victims after infrastructure was hit by #Russia's attack.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState

The #Crimea Bridge won't be fully functional for another 10 months.

That's today's message from the UK

Hoping for good news from #Snihurivka today (RU: #Snigirevka) in #Mykolaiv / #Nikolaev

#Russia's army looks to have already retreated from here.

#RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine

Just another pathetic fake from #Russia's bloggers still trying to pretend there's a Nazi problem in #Ukraine.

I have a message for them:there are fascists in Ukraine. But hopefully they and their army will be kicked out of the Occupied land soon.

Attacks on, and around, #Bakhmut (#RU: #Artemovsk) are still costing #Russia hundreds of lives every daanother 780 dead in the last 24 hours.

Saturday the day we are expecting to hit 80k Russian deaths.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia

The usual areas continue to be shelled by #Russia.

#Sumy and #Chernihiv regions receive up to 100 rockets every day.

The south of #Dniprooetrovsk also a constant target.
Here #Zaporizhzhia oblast which was hit 80 times in 17 villages in the last 24 hours. Two people injured.

Funny story concerning #Russia where tourists, booked to go to #Madrid, ended up landing near the Syrian border!

Seems the travel agency mixed up Madrid with Madrin in Turkey.

They did get the connecting flight to Spain the next day.

Protests continue in #Russia where some family members have arrived at a military unit on the border.

They are from newly mobilized from #Voronezh #Kursk and #Belgorod regions. They are not against the war but demand their men are moved back from the front line.

#Ukraine Intelligence says it's busted an FSB plot to hit key commanders in #Kyiv and #Sumy regions.

#Russia's sabotage and intelligence group was detained while recovering weapons from a cache in Sumy oblast.
