Not happened yet, but I will be very surprised if Russian tanks are not on Ukrainian territory by the morning. Initially in Donbas territories.
A few more made up "atrocities" or staged attacks will be broadcast by 21st century Lord Haw Haws and then a hot war on the frontline.

My guess is #Ukraine's forces are likely to be pushed back beyond the current frontline, which has been frozen for years. I doubt it will extend to Odesa, Kharkiv or even Mariupol' yet.
It will be symbolic advance, a few small villages, maybe Slovyansk.
I've not been wrong so far

It appears Russian tanks have already rolled into #Ukraine, this time without needing to deny the second invasion.

People are not fleeing #Ukraine
Victor Yushchenko won the first genuine free elections in #Ukraine. Moscow was so outraged they poisoned him and rigged the result, which led to the first Maidan protests.
The election was re-run, Yushchenko won!

OMG, flicked on to RT to see what propaganda is being spewed. Appalled to see @johnsuchet1's son Rory spouting the Kremlin's crap.
Surely there comes a time, no matter how much you need a job, when you realise you are helping to enable mass murderers?

But what sanctions? Not the paper tiger nonsense Biden "announced" earlier?
Stop being afraid. Act now.
Stop ALL money laundering. Revoke visas of anyone connected with the terrorist state's leader.
And EU commit to destruction of NS2.

18 minutes into the main 10 o'clock news bulletin, @BBCNews finally mentions #Ukraine.
Totally shocked at the editorial judgement.

Very good point. Although it is rather easy to punch holes in #Russia's tissue of lies and made up "arguments" for invading #Ukraine.
Or maybe Putin should put himself on his own "Ukraine death list" for supporting Ukraine's independence?

Still waiting for this by the way.
It's heading towards 2am in #Ukraine.
Meanwhile in Britain, Boris Johnson will chair the COBRA committee at 06:30 in the morning. Busy times.

American broadcaster ABC is reporting White House Sources urgently telling #Ukraine's President
@ZelenskyyUa to leave the capital Kyiv and head to the relative safety of L'viv.
The US must be 100% confident of their intel, but I'm still sceptical.
Awful conundrum for Zelenskyy

At 02:00 GMT The United Nations will convene for an urgent meeting on the #UkraineRussiaCrisis
That's 9pm EST in New York, 04:00 in Kyiv.
Penny for @BarackObama's thoughts. Wonder if he and Biden regret being soft after Russia's 2014 invasion of Ukraine?

What most experts/journalists seem to have overlooked in Putin's deranged ramblings today is not just the declaration of war on #Ukraine
But the fact he said it was "a mistake" to give independence to ANY former Soviet state. A direct threat to NATO's #Estonia #Latvia #Lithuania

Zelenskyy is speaking to the people of #Ukraine right now.
Zelenskyy live
Zelenskyy "Ukraine reserves the right to individual and collective self defence"
Zelenskyy
"We are not afraid of anyone or anything.
Glory to Ukraine"
"We are not afraid of anyone or anything.

President of #Ukraine Zelenskyy also said in his national address:
"Ukraine is ready for whatever comes but is committed to political resolution. We won't fall for provocation.
It's important to see who is our real friend, partner" as he called on @UN #OSCE #EU for support.

This is interesting - a call for #USA, #UK to be involved in negotiations. Both were signatories (+ Russia) to the Budapest memorandum when Ukraine agreed to give up its nuclear weapons.
Most Ukrainians feel let down by #GER + #FRA in "Normandy" format

#Turkey comes down firmly on the side of #Ukraine and outspoken in its criticism of #Russia.
A huge relief for @NATO that Ankara has issued such a strong statement.

This is the culmination of a short thread by @edwardlucas
For my money he's the number one expert on Putin/Russia/Eastern Europe. Spot on here as always.
