A new week, week 49 of #Russia's war and Day 341 since #Putin took the illegal decision to invade a peaceful neighbour.

Here's another daily thread with all the news as #Ukraine fights for its very survival.

Here's the link to yesterday's thread:

Frist an update on #Russia's direct hit on an apartment block in #Kharkiv.

Remarkably so far the casualty figures are the same with one elderly woman killed and three other civilians injured.

Emergency services released these new photos of the disaster site.
#StandWithUkraine

Here's the British Intel briefing for Monday.
Under the radar mobilisation continues in #Russia:

#RussianGoHome

#Ptuin threatened @BorisJohnson with a missile strike. It's on all the British front pages today.

The former UK PM made the revelation in a BBC interview

#StopRussia

In #Kherson region, explosions reported in occupied #Skadovsk.

No further details yet, but this is how the sky looked over the town first thing this morning.

#RussiansGoHome

In the #Chechen wars, #Russia just destroyed the capital #Grozny. In #Syria it was a couple of places.

In #Ukraine it's every single city, town or village they can reach. Animal and war criminals.
This is Mariinka in #Donetsk oblast.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine

#Russia's losses well down in the last 24 hours.
Maybe rotation of troops on both sides and restablishing positions.

Pinpoint strikes may be responsible for many of the 490 new deaths*

*Ukraine estimate

A female TV reporter was raped in #Melitopol by "Kadyrovites" of #Russia's army according to her employers NTV who have filed a criminal complaint.

Olga Zenkova's cameraman Artem Epifanov was beaten up by the #Chechen "soldiers" in the hotel restaurant.

#RussiaWarCrimes

Many on Twitter and Telegram reporting that #Poland is ready to give F-16 fighter jets to #Ukraine.

That's sort of true. Acually Polish PM Mateusz Morawiecki actually said nothing has changed. If NATO acts on this matter they will be happy to help, but won't go it alone.

It's quiet in #Ukraine 🤞

Yesterday was not quiet in #Kherson. Pictures have just been released of the damage to one of the most historical buildings in the city.

#StopRussia

A survey of bomb shelters in #Kyiv has revealed one in 5 does not exist.

"They are on the maps, but in reality they do not exist or they are in a terrible state" the OZON monitoring group said.

“It shouldn’t be like this, because the next shelter is 5 minutes away.”

As darkness fell in #Dnipropetrovsk region, an explosion and a pillar of smoke seen here.

A small explosion was also heard in the outskirts of #Dnipro city, but could have been air defence.

#StopRussia

Once again locals in #Kherson region are being bombed with incendiary munitions.

Likely thermite as we've seen countless times since liberation of the right bank 2.5 months ago.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

Nowadays most of the shills, bots and perhaps brainwashed don't even hide their Nazi and fascist beliefs.

Of course if you replace Ukraine with Russia in this text it makes perfect sense.

#Denmark confirmed it is handing over all its 19 Caesar howitzers

Danish PM Mette Frederiksen pledged the country's continuing support during a meeting with President Zelenskyy at a briefing in Odesa

Zelensky thanked the country for its willingness to join the "tank coalition."

Foreign volunteers trying to rescue civilians from #Bakhmut when this happened:

I cannot verify when this video was taken but I have no reason to doubt it was very recent.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

It's reported that the first Bradley fighting vehicles have arrived in #Ukraine.

The US Transportation Command sent the cargo of around 60 Bradleys from South Carolina five days ago.

#StandWithUkraine

Correction - there is no proof Bradleys are in #Ukraine yet, but either way they will be soon.

Meanwhile Joe Biden has again confirmed he won't give F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine

Thank you once again to Darren G for donating funds for a coffee - my first of the day.
