The 140th daily thread on #Russia's war on #Ukraine is here

I've documented everything since I was in Kyiv just before the invasion.
All for free. No Substack, no subscription.
But it takes a lot of time, research, calls. If you want to buy me a coffee🙏

More depressing news to report first.
The death toll in the #ChasivYar massacre now stands at 47.

A residential block near #Bakhmut in #Donetsk region was struck by a Russian missile at the weekend and rescuers have been painstakingly removing rubble ever since.

Quite a detailed report from Britain's Intelligence this morning. All stuff covered here in this thread previously, which shows I'm doing something right!

This is a fight for freedom in Europe against tyranny and oppression.

#StandWithUkraine Image
Not too much new damage overnight, but shelling continued across the front line.
At the end of yesterday's thread I reported strikes in #Luhansk and #Donetsk regions, with videos.

Four civilians died in Donetsk and 8 injured in the last 24 hours.

#StopRussia
In #Kherson this morning more action.

#Ukraine has remorselessly been attacking enemy fuel and ammo storage for a week

Welcome to the 141st day of Europe's war.

#Russia's illegal invasion of #Ukraine continues, bringing death and destruction wherever their war crimes take them.

Here's my daily thread with all the important news and analysis.

#StandWithUkraine
Still plenty of missile strikes, rocket attacks across the frontline but the general feeling is that there's been a slight lull on the Russian side the last couple of days.

This is backed up by the British view this morning. Antiquated machinery and no movement in 72 hours. Image
One person seizing the moment and having a "good war" is President Tokayev of #Kazakhstan.

Today he's told the Kazakh government to "create conditions for the relocation of foreign companies that have left the Russian market."

A further sign of the growing division with #Russia

It's Tuesday 12 July - or Day 139 of #Russia's four day operation to seize #Kyiv.

#Ukraine continues to survive and more than that, genuinely fight back.

This is the place for all the news and analysis of the war. Read on...
I'll start with the British Intel update because it touches upon #Russia's alternative ways of recruiting fighters:

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
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.

The 138th daily thread on #Russia's war of choice starts here.

Real signs in the last few days that #Ukraine has levelled the playing (combat) field with the arrival of long range artillery.

Even as I type rockets seem to be landing in Russian held territory. Read on...⬇️
Just 2 hours ago, at the end of yesterday's thread, I reported on explosions again in occupied #NovayaKakhovka where #Russia suffered heavy losses earlier on Sunday.

Now reports of more rockets landing in #Kherson. Yesterday evening #Ukraine pledged to regain land in the south.

 Now a puzzle for you.. Just what is being transported on trains in huge quantities through #Russia?
Missiles/rockets? Logs? Rolled sheet metal? All suggested so far.

Great work @CarolynnePries1 to capture these from a webcam.
This is Uzlovaya, about 230km south of Moscow

The 137th day of #PutinsWar is underway and already more rockets and missiles are flying.

This is the start of Sunday's thread with all the news throughout the day from #Ukraine and beyond, as #Russia continues its destructive invasion of its neighbour.
#Luhansk region is where we start today, with news of a likely #Ukraine attack.

This is #Alchevsk, about 25km west of #Lugansk city

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Here's another video from #Alchevsk.
Things are really hotting (and lighting) up in the occupied town in #Luhansk.

Day 136 of #Russia's war, welcome to the daily thread documenting the most important news, events, and some of my analysis along the way.

Mercifully a fairly quite night in #Ukraine as it fights for its very existence.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
I start with news from occupied region and the #Ukraine Resistance movement.

A collaborator policeman has been shot dead in #NovayaKakhovka (#Kherson region) and two other attempted attacks which are not yet reported.

Thanks to @AlbaThunberg for help

Nice to hear #Russia is digging deep in to its reserves. 1950s tractor-pullers now being sent to fight #Ukraine.

To be honest Ukraine's tractor army won't probably even bother retrieving these bits of scrap🤣🤣

#Russia's war on #Ukraine enters Day 135 - here's the start of the daily thread.

All the news updated throughout the day in one handy place!

Expecting a new push from Russians soon after troop rotation, Ukraine hoping new weapons will help their defence.
The main focus continues to be in the east of #Ukraine

But #Ukraine is regaining its territory in #Kherson region. Here's the UK MOD asessment.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Among data published regularly by #Kyiv is children affected by #PutinsWar.

The number of kids known to have been killed or injured by Russia will reach 1,000 within a week, while many more deaths remain hidden in occupied cities like #Mairupol'

Currently 347 dead, 646 injured
