Welcome to Wednesday, and daily thread #126 on #Russia's illegal war on #Ukraine.

More death and destruction overnight from Russian missiles, but remember barbaric attacks like on #Kremenchuk are NOT mistakes. They are targeted terror attacks on a peaceful nation.

Read on...
Three dead, five injured so far in another cowardly attack by #Russia on a residential building in #Mykolaiv.

The usual terror tactics, soft targets. Civilians very much in the Russian army sights with each missile.
Each one a war crime and so far no justice as killing continues ImageImageImageImage
In case you missed it last night, another of #Russia's pathetic defences over the #Kremenchuk massacre is "but there's no video of the hit"

There is: here's a still of the giant missile about to kill dozens - video in the link.

I am rather surprised to see the British MoD giving #Russia an excuse for its terrorist activities.

Strange how so many of these "accidental" misguided strikes hit big civilian targets in #Ukraine isn't it?

Explosions heard in #Dnipropetrovsk
Two women injured by #Russia's nightly shelling of #Kharkiv.

They were residents of this block in the Shevchenko district of the city.

Update on #Russia's war losses, according to #Ukraine Image
As #Russia continues to make small advances inside #Lysychansk, the governor of #Luhansk reports usual tactics from the terrorists.

"As in Severodonetsk, they go from house to house (bombing)" said Serhiy Haidai.

A BBC investigation proves illegal cluster munitions were used in the #Ukraine city of #Chernihiv.

Yet more bombs falling on #Kharkiv.

Power has been cut in some parts of the city.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine #Kharkov
The industrial area of #Kharkiv has been hit.

No reports yet of damage/casualties etc.

#UkraineUnderAttaсk #StandWithUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
#Ukraine's International Legion has released video of some of their last movements before retreating from #Severodonetsk.

Chilling moments among the ruins of a once lively city in #Luhansk.

Video just coming in of a fire in the south of #Moscow.
Investigations are underway but two buildings (maybe warehouses) were ablaze.
No injuries.
#RussiaOnFire

The fire (see last tweet) in #Moscow is being treated as arson. The flames covered over 2,000 square metres at its height.

Authorities have not revealed what was in the buildings or who owned them.

#Sabotage #StopRussia
Is it true @BurgerKing and @kfc that you are still operating in #Russia?

Each sale contributes to war crimes and the murder of civilians. Are you happy with that?

New offers perhaps?
#DeathWithFries #BloodNotKetchup
The Pope describes the terrorist strike by #Russia on a mall in #Kremenchuk (#Krememnchug) as the latest in a series of "barbaric attacks"

#StandWithUkraine️ #StopRussia
Good. A really glaring omission until today.

Thought to be #Russia's second or third richest person and of course close links to the Kremlin for all of Putin's time in power.

Thankfully the UK government has waived visa fees for members of the #Ukraine freedom orchestra

They'll be playing the @bbcproms as part of a tour, but faced a bill of £259 per person, which led to a public campaign against the fees.

Another gripping report from the front line by @SkyNews' Special Correspondent ' @AlexCrawfordSky

Entitled the Last Days of Lysychansk, the Sky team deserve a lot of praise for this

#Ukraine #StopRussia

Who needs war? Lightning just outside #Kyiv has destroyed a bridge and killed a man.

The incident happened in the #Vyshhorod district, near the village of Demydiv, on the river Irpin.
Two others were injured.

#StandWithUkraine Image
Pro-#Russia bloggers claim Russia was able to purchase a couple of "Caeser" Howitzers from corrupt #Ukraine officers.

No proof, but they allege the $7m+ units were flogged for just $120k each & are now in Nizhny Tagil.
Four of the other 14 donated by #France are likely destroyed
95 of the Mariupol' #Azovstal defenders including 43 from the #Azov regiment have been released in a big prisoner exchange.

In all 144 POWs were exchanged between #Ukraine and #Russia

Some streets of President @ZelenskyyUa's hometown of #KryvyiRih may soon be renamed in honour of @BorisJohnson and @JoeBiden

#SlavaUkraine #StandWithUkraine
Anti-war protest stickers have started to appear in #Putin's home city of #StPetersburg.

"the war will end - we are eternal"

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia ImageImage
Not even #Ukraine media reporting this yet!

AZOVSTAL POWs released!

WTF? @richardbranson pops up in #Kyiv

The British entrepreneur met with President @ZelenskyyUa today.

They discussed maintaining world attention on the war in #Ukraine, as well as the prospects for cooperation in the post-war reconstruction of the country.

#SlavaUkraini
The first story I reported on today's thread was this disgusting strike by #Russia on an apartment block in #Mykolaiv/#Nikolaev.

Five are now known to have died.
Here's a new video of the moment of impact - again zero possible military targets here

It seems there's a whole new "underground" publication just sprung up in #Russia, called "Women's Truth"

This report says the new issue reports on women who've experienced the horrors of war

A #Ukraine grain train has derailed in #Romania.

The train has 32 wagons of grain and weighed over 700 tonnes. 11 of the carriages came off the track in the accident which happened in Iasi.

The train was on its way to the port city of Constanța:

Large swathes of #Ukraine's media seem hell bent on smashing @poroshenko. Previously attacks on the ex-President for trying to leave the country when he wanted to complete a deal to bring specialised vehicles back to Ukraine

Today an attack on him for being in a London hotel
2/2
TSN Channel says its reporter "just happened" to pass by in what it described as one of London's most expensive hotels. TSN's reporters that well paid?

TSN owned by #Kolomoiskyi, who put #Zelenskyy into office. Same Kolomoiskyi who brought down Privat Bank, but is free in🇺🇦 Image
#Putin, who denied #Russia's troops were in #Crimea in 2014 and came up with 5 stories about #MH17, has predictably denied they hit a civilian target in #Kremenchuk

“Nobody among us shoots just like that, randomly. It is based on intelligence with high-precision weapons.”
This evening #Russia looks to have captured the village of #Pryvillya to the northwest of Lysychansk.

The noose in #Luhansk gets a little tighter.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Emotional scenes this evening as the Ukrainian prisoners released in the prisoner swap earlier today, made it back to #Ukraine held territory.

Many are badly injured.
One soldier said "emotions are overflowing, there were thoughts that this day would not come."

#HeroiamSlava
Just for a change, the poor residents of #Kharkiv have been sheltering from missiles.

At least two explosions reported in the city tonight.
Here's one recorded on CCTV

#StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine️
A reporter from Telegram channel ukraina24tv now reported six explosions in #Kharkiv tonight.

Missiles were fired from #Belgorod' in #Russia

This is the start of THE daily thread covering all things Ukraine.

Reliable, accurate information for 1124 days as Russia and its willing accomplices (Iran, North Korea and MAGA-land) try to destroy Ukraine, its culture and its democracy to make it a vassal state.

Here's the🧵
Yesterday started with shocking lies and propaganda from the White House and ended with another massive attack by Russia, knowing tRUmp and co don't mind at all.

Find all the details by clicking and scrolling here⬇️

Worryingly, Russia achieved a 17% hit rate from its overnight drone attack with 25 of 147 getting through Ukraine's air defence.

97 attack UAVs were taken down and 25 more were decoys.

Kyiv came under fire most during the night.

The war Russia inflicted on Ukraine enters Day 1120

Ukraine, a country which never invaded another, never killed anyone abroad; a fully democratic nation where only one President has ever won a second term in office.

Here's THE daily thread for Wednesday, with all the news.
Yesterday was all about the ritual humiliation of tRUmp, dished out by Putin, and the US president's brain being too rusty to realise.

I also indulged in a long sub-thread on my fears about what's happening in Washington DC.
Catch up here:

It's official. tRUmp's supposed skill at making a deal is absolutely RANK

Russia
Afghanistan
NK (North Korea)

#TraitorTrump promised a deal with his mate in NK, got nothing.
He handed the Taliban everything, got nothing.
Now, ending the war in 24 hours turned into humiliationImage

Tuesday 18 March is Day 1119 of the war in Europe

Putin, the aggressor, the war criminal, presiding over countless heinous crimes, executions, kidnapping of children, is about to be given a pass by Donald J Trump.
The despot and the wannabe talk today.

This is THE daily thread
Yesterday saw an explosive end to a day which started with mystery surrounding a Ukraine hit in Russia, and moved through the thread with some harrowing and shocking tales and scenes from Kherson.

Catch up here! #SlavaUkraïni

During the night 7% of Russia's drones defeated air defence, according to Ukraine's figures.

Kyiv says there were 64 simulator drones which fell harmlessly - I think is a record, but cannot be sure.

Another 63 were shot down, with 10 of 137 attack UAVs reaching targets. Image

Welcome to my daily thread, covering all things #Ukraine every single day since even before the first day of Russia's full invasion.

This is Day 1110 of Putin's long promised land grab - he's also pledged to reunite the rest of the USSR.

More atrocities overnight, let's begin:
For those loving people who urge me to get more sleep, you will be pleased to know there was no alarm this morning; I am refreshed and ready to tackle JD TRussia again.

A busy Friday ended with news of the awful attack in free Donetsk, catch up here:

Coming up news of a significant new oil strike in Russia. While Ukraine sticks to military targets, Putin's horde targets civilians.

#Dobropillya is a small place, but this heinous attack may go down as one of the worst of the war.

A double tap attack & cluster munitions

Today sees the completion of 3 years of full scale war unleashed by #Russia on #Ukraine.

As signs point to an end to this war relatively soon, the ONLY question which should be asked is: are you happy to reward war-criminal terrorists with land?

Here's THE daily thread:
It's Day 1096 of #Russia 's war.

If you missed anything yesterday, catch up on Saturday's news here:

The #UK is in full focus today.
As @Keir_Starmer prepares to fly to Washington, new sanctions will be unveiled tomorrow.

Foreign Sec @DavidLammy says it will be "the largest package of sanctions against #Russia since the early days of the war eroding its military machine."

Day 1083 of the war in Europe and the 1083rd of my daily threads.

Three years ago we knew #Ukraine wouldn't go down without a fight. Now, for the first time in over a year there's genuine reason for #Russia to be worried about the outcome.
Plenty to learn and from in Sunday's thread.
In #Russia, ships crashing and exploding, faking capture of a key town in #Ukraine and late at night drones attacking again.

On the other hand, Moscow attacks civilians. Take a look at what you missed:

100% record in air defence overnight, according to #Ukraine.

Of 83 attack drones fired by #Russia, 61 were shot down by #Ukraine with the other 22 decoys.

I did report a fire in #Sumy last night, but that and damage in #Kharkiv #Poltava + #Kirovohrad were from falling debris. Image
