Friday 25 November, welcome to the war daily news thread with all the updates from #Ukraine.

It's Day 275 of #Russia's illegal invasion.

Not too much happened on Day 274, but you can catch up on what you missed here:

Britain's Ministry of Defence update outlines what most of my readers will know already.

The big question is will #Russia's mobilised and their relatives rebel - especially families after their loved one's pointless deaths.

#RussiansGoHome

On Wednesday the European Parliament officially declared #RussiaIsATerroristState.

But yesterday evening they also passed a resolution against #Belarus with Lukashenka "sharing responsibility for war crimes with #Russia", calling for justice at the Hague.

Two days after #Russia's big strike on infrastructure, water has finally returned to the southern #Ukraine city of #Mykolaiv. Buses are also running again.

Most Ukrainians have at least some power now, back to scheduled outages following repeated strikes on power stations.

The #UK Foreign Minister has arrived in #Kyiv, bearing gifts!

#Ukraine will receive 24 ambulances, some armoured vehicles and £3m to help rebuild infrastructure, including schools and shelters, which have been destroyed in the war.

#StandWithUkraine

#Ukraine's MOD says it struck an enemy base in the village of Zelenyi Yar in the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia oblast.

They claim #Russia lost 20 soldiers killed and 15 more wounded plus military equipment destroyed.

#RussiansGoHome #SaveUkraine

On 27 April 2022 the family of Georgi Shakuro made social media appeals to find the sailor whom they were told was "missing"

He was on the #Moskva which was sunk by #Ukraine two weeks previously.

Finally #Russia admits he died. Soon we will get some idea of the true death toll

You probably already follow @GlasnostGone - if not you should do.

One of the staunchest, longest supporters of #Ukraine highlighting #Russia's crimes for many, many years and a huge collection of important videos.

430 more of #Russia's soldiers liquidated in the previous 24 hours, according to #Ukraine.

A slight uptick and the 100,000 remains on course to be hit just before the end of the year.

#StopRussia

More shelling already this morning in #Zaporizhzhia.

#Russia's rockets hit a gas/service station on the outskirts of the city. Thankfully no victims this time.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

Plenty of unconfirmed news from #Melitopol, most notably reports of action overnight at the airfield. Explosions followed by a fire, but no photos.

Locals say #Russia is moving reinforcements into the area, but more explosions heard in #Mykhailivka 35 miles north of Melitopol.

Murky footage, but the first video of the sabotaged #NordStream 2 gas pipeline.

#Denmark's TV2 gained the footage with an "underwater drone"

#StopRussia

The European Parliament's vote to name #Russia as a State Sponsor of Terrorism was not quite unanimous.

Now it's reported that some of the 44 MEPs who voted against are finding these posters outside of their offices in Brussels.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine

#RussiaOnFire

This is in #NovyUrengoy, in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous region of #Russia. It's around 3,000km north-east of #Moscow

A garage filled with fuel tanks in ablaze.
No news on casualties yet

#StopRussia

In occupied #Melitopol reports of a shootout this afternoon.

Locals say it's probably another disagreement between mobilised units and regulars.

#StopRussia

#Ukraine's Security Service carried out another raid on a church of the Moscow-Patriarch.

At the #Chernivtsi-Bukovyna Diocese they found documents showing the leaders have Russian citizenship, plus how to spread disinformation to parishioners about the political situation in🇺🇦

Emergency services now say 15 people were killed by today's shelling in #Kherson.

#Russia continues to target civilians in territory it claims is Russian

Another 35 people were injured, including a child.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

In occupied #Kherson region, south of the river, there've been explosions in #Chaplynka.

However getting photos from the area under #Russia's control is difficult and risky for locals.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

A #Ukraine news site has pointed out the scandalous excess of the Kadyrov family.

The Chechen warlord's 15 year old son was pictured here with a watch supposedly costing almost $1.4m

The rest of his outfit isn't cheap either, at over 200k rubles ($3,300)

In #Kramatorsk today they were cleaning up after #Russia hit a medical building and three apartment blocks.

Luckily no one was seriously injured.
