Air raid alarms over all of Ukraine

Missiles coming in from the Black Sea

Ukrainian sources are reporting strikes in Kiev oblast and missiles flying towards Vinnitsa

Ukrainian sources are reporting explosions in Lvov oblast.

Ukrainian sources are claiming that the Beskidy Tunnel in Lvov oblast was hit. It's an important transit corridor linking Western Ukraine to the rest of Europe through the Carpathian Mountains.

Other Ukrainian sources, including representatives of Ukrainian Railways, are now contradicting the claim that the tunnel was hit. Hard to say what really was hit but I suspect it was railway infrastructure in the vicinity of the tunnel

There has been no visual confirmation yet of Luganskoye being under Russian control but it would be strategically very important to move north of Svetlodarsk ASAP.

Lavrov: "Russia must stop depending in any way on supplies of anything from the West for critical industries"

Lavrov: Those who seek Russia's defeat 'on the battlefield' probably had a poor education, don't know history very well and do not understand what Russia is

A thread on “Azov”. A lot of people are talking about them these days, the New York Times & the Pope call on them to be saved, they are being presented as glorious heroes. So, let's take a short look at their history:

The roots of “Azov” can be found in the Neonazi soccer hooligan scene of Kharkov. Andrei Biletsky was the central figure of the nascent movement for the longest time. A Kharkov native, he joined numerous nationalist organizations, e.g. the Lvov-based “Tryzub”.

He also actively supported the Kharkov cell of the “Social-National Party of Ukraine” (nowadays “Svoboda”). In 2006, Biletsky founded “Patriot of Ukraine”, a nationalist organization that engaged in street violence & even terrorism.

Russian MOD: "The so-called 'commander' of the Azov Nazis, due to the hatred of the people of Mariupol and the desire of the citizens to punish him for his numerous atrocities, was removed from the territory of the Azovstal plant in a special armored car"

There has been video proof of Sergey Volyna, commander of the 36th Marines who joined Azov at Azovstal, in Russian custody. So far no footage of Kalina or Prokopenko, but both have reportedly also surrendered.

Russian MOD: "A total of 2,439 Azov fighters and Ukrainian soldiers who were blocked on the territory of Azovstal have surrendered"
