Thread on #Russia's invasion of #Ukraine - March 4
After the clashes reported last night in Enerhodar, the mayor of the city reported that some Russian vehicles broke into the city. He claims that Russian forces went straight for the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant
According to the mayor there are some wounded at the site due to the fighting. The clashes obviously prompted significant concern for the safety of the plant.

This has been confirmed. The Mayor of Energodar said two people were wounded in the incident #Ukraine
I was not able to confirm this (unsurprisingly) but yesterday there were reports that a Ukrainian force carried out an attack behind enemy lines, in the village of Dytyatky, near Chernobyl, taking aim at the command post of #Russia's Eastern Military District forces.
Poll in #Ukraine (Rating Group): 88% of Ukrainians believe the country will be able to repel the Russian invasion.

Kharkiv is being massively bombed tonight.

This is because this city, which is just a few kilometers away has been resisting since the very first day of the Russian offensive.
#Russia's failure to capture it is also one of the key elements explaining the relatively limited advances in the east/center. I think Russia expected that the city would quickly fall, the Sumy-Kharkiv line being broken, which would lead advances towards Dnipro.
Russia had amassed a significant force opposite Kharkiv, but the city still holds, which is key to the broader Ukrainian ability to delay the Russian advances, and avoid being dealt a killing blow.

So Russia is resorting to mass-shelling.

Weapons depot likely hit (secondary explosion and shockwave seen on video)
I see some people mentioning thermobaric. This does not look like a thermobaric weapon to me and thermobaric weapons used by Russia are fired in volleys.
This rather compares to a Beirut blast-type explosion (which is not better). Lots of explosives detonated at once by an initial detonation.
