The previous tweet reminds me of this video I saw a couple of days ago.
This purports to be recruitment for the Wagner Group inside a jail. It's said they promise an amnesty after six months of war, regardless of the charge.
Morning in occupied #NovayaKakhovka enabled us to see the full devastation following #Ukraine's hit on a military base. It's claimed 40 fuel tankers and numerous weapons/ammo were destroyed in the incredible fireworks display.
Another case of accuse others of what #Russia does itself. Two days after destroying a humanitarian aid centre, they claim #Ukraine's strike on a military base did the same there.
The occupiers then have the temerity...
2/2
...to say it was devastating for the town "since no one receives either pensions or wages."
Russia occupied #NovayaKakhovka over 4 months ago - why is there still no pension/wages?
Photo shows some of the collateral damage caused by secondary explosions from the ammo dump.
Just another of #Russia's senior officer meeting his end.
Captain Anton Shmelev, Commander of the howitzer artillery battery, 228 regiment Yekaterinburg.
Another one bites the dust!
Traitor Colonel Oleskiy Avramchenko completed his military education and service in #Ukraine including on #Crimea, where he chose to join Russia.
He was one of those to take down the🇺🇦flag.
Today news of his death in battle #SlavaUkraini#StopRussiaNOW
More trouble for #Russia in the occupied territories reported.
In #Enerhodar, twice in the early hours this morning, small drones dropped bombs on the former #Ukraine Intelligence office (SBU), now a base for Russians.
For example there appears to be no allowance for the strike on Russian bases in Kherson oblast in the counter attack. Reasons? 1) No.of victims unknown 2) Wagner (not RU army) troops 3) Not true
I've had a tip off, that I cannot yet corroborate, that "around 50 buses full of Russian troops" have arrived in the city this morning.
There have been strong rumours of conscripts in #Crimea about to be sent to mainland #Ukraine
Still in #Kherson news of a successful operation by #Ukraine's military.
Awaiting verification (photos etc) of this too, but reports say they've freed 5 Ukrainians who were being held captive by Occupiers.
1 soldier, 1 ex-police officer and 3 civilians; one is badly wounded
Two fires in quick succession in #Krasnodar have raised my eyebrows. On the face of it neither seems unduly suspicious, but the proximity in time and distance makes it noteworthy.
First this warehouse fire in the village of Prigorodny blazed for 4 hours.
#Ukraine's Intelligence has cracked a scheme to export silver bars and money from #Russia to #Ukraine. They allege the cash (over $3m) was then used for "subversive activities"
I've replied to a few people about the Russia claim of 90 deaths in #NovayaKakhovka.
Such was the destruction, I'm sure there were deaths, maybe even 90. But many may be due to #Russia's MLRS etc firing off ammo adjacent populated areas.
#ChasivYar - the death toll is now at 41
Russian missiles struck a 5-storey residential block on Sunday. The village is near #Bakhmut in the free part of #Donetsk oblast.
There's a new video on the state Facebook page below.
Occupiers say the Head of North Ossetia, was NOT injured in #Ukraine.
Sergei Menyailo did come under fire in #Zaporizhzhia but the rockets whistled overhead according to the report. "He was not injured, but slightly shaken"
Day 1301 of Ukraine fighting for its survival. The right to be free, speak their own language, worship in their own churches, to learn their own history.
A history of long suppression by Russia.
As war crimes grow daily, the words "never again" don't seem to apply.
Here's the🧵
Yesterday began, and ended, with Russia attacking Zaporizhzhia, injuring civilians.
Also, the head of the IAEA disgraced himself in Russia's arms, changes of 🇺🇦army leadership, and how a Russian guy was a Putin opponent, until 3 mins after being elected.
Day 1300 of Putin's war.
Another 100 days of fighting completed.
We are no nearer peace than we were 100 days ago.
Almost 200 days ago Trump demanded a 30-day unconditional ceasefire.
Not surprising as he started it, it's always Putin stopping peace.
Here's Monday's daily🧵

It was a day when Ukraine had to quickly repair a main railway line after a massive explosion, but they also managed to make multiple hits on Russia's rail and oil industries
Hello on Day 1298 of Russia's full invasion of its sovereign neighbour. So, only 1295 days late in fulfilling the boast of taking Kyiv in 3 days. #EATP for Putin.
I've compiled a🧵every single day without fail.
You can help my work with a boost, comment, re-post or a coffee🙏
Friday saw more important visitors arrive in Kyiv (and another familiar place is in Ukraine today).
There was more solidarity and practical support, while Russia suffered more oil woes.
I'll start in Odesa, because that's where the familiar face has turned up.
He was planning to return to Ukraine a couple of weeks ago, but couldn't make it, but now Boris is back.
Loved by nearly all Ukrainians, his early arrival (with Lord Ashcroft) meant he avoids the crowds.
Day 1297 of Russia's imperialist war, but the senior bully keeps being given a bloody nose by the junior school kid next door. How embarrassing for the "world's second greatest army" and more 'punches' thrown by Ukraine overnight..
There was so much in yesterday's thread.
Russia hitting churches, Ukraine striking a boat.
The US helping Belarus, which helps🇷🇺 & Trump questioning if the drone attack on Poland was a mistake.
Thursday ended with a Ukraine drone surge into Russia:
