This is the start of the daily thread for Day 151 of the Russian full scale invasion of #Ukraine.

Two big talking points yesterday concerning #Odesa and #Donetsk and the arguments continue.

News & analysis throughout the day.
Read, comment, share!

#StopRussia
1/2

I have to start with news of yet more missiles landing in #Mykolaiv this morning.

Two separate attacks yesterday destroying universities and homes in #Nikolaev, and two people were injured.

Now a fresh Russian raid with 5 powerful explosions reported.

#StandWithUkraine
2/2

Mayor of #Mykolaiv Oleksandr Sienkovych has not released further details yet about this morning's damage or any casualties. Rescue services are on site.

CCTV caught the moment of impact.

#Nikolaev #Ukraine #SaveUkraine #StopRussia
Following yesterday's cruise missile attack on #Odesa, #Turkiye's Defence Minister last night announced that he's spoken to both #Ukraine and #Russia

Moscow claimed it was "not involved and investigating the issue"

Ukraine has confirmed systems for loading grain are not damaged
Reports of two rockets landing in #Chuhuiv (RU: #Chuguev) in #Kharkiv/#Kharkov region overnight.

No further details yet.
More shelling overnight too in occupied #Donetsk.

This video was shot in the Kirovskyi district near the centre.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
A few banks still actively working in #Russia and therefore supporting the war crimes and murder of #Ukraine's people.

24tv in Ukraine reports Citi, @RBI_Presse, Intesa Sanpaolo and @UniCredit Group "couldn't leave", but now some are even recruiting new employees.
Interesting to see the Study of War joining me in predicting a counter offensive in the south in the near future.

#KhersonIsUkraine #StopRussia

Exiled Mayor of #Melitopol posted these photos from the town this morning.

Ivan Fedorov says this "mystery" happened overnight.

More supply problems for #Russia in the occupied region.

#SlavaUkraini #StopRussia
First light has let locals see what happened in #Khrustalnyi (RU: #KrasnyiLuch in the early hours.

A hotel was smashed by high precision artillery, presumably HIMARS. It was well known that Russian troops were using the hotel as a barracks.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
Explosions in the west #Ukraine city of #Khmelnitskyi this morning.
The mayor initially said air defence was working well, implying all missiles had been taken down.

But now a column of smoke is rising. Maybe caused by debris, or one missile sneaked through.

#StopRussia
This was #NovayaKakhovka this morning.

Looks like #Ukraine found another target in the occupied town.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussiaNOW
#Bakhmut has been on the frontline for a while. The bombardment continues ahead of an expected ground push by #Russia.

The writing on the demolished building says "this is your school"

#Donetsk #StandWithUkraine
Turns out that #Turkiye earned decent commission brokering the "grain deal"

@DailySabah is reporting the Turkish govt will be able to purchase grain transported by sea, at prices below world prices.

Is that ethical? Did UN know?
Politico reports fighters from #Canada and #Sweden also died in the #Donbas this week. They also name the two Americans, who it seems, were killed by #Russia in the same attack.

Air raid warning for #Kyiv

#StandWithUkraine
British MoD update highlights one of the more obvious Russian lies.

If #Russia takes these areas it will announce an expansion to #Odesa and the whole of the south. And then central #Ukraine and #Kyiv.

Never forget Putin wants to remove Ukraine from the map.
Heavy losses for #Russia over the last 24 hours, #Ukraine says.

14 tanks destroyed - well above the daily average, while 280 troops killed, also significantly above the recent average.

#StandWithUkraine #StopPutin
Two civilians thought to have died in Ukraine controlled #Donetsk villages in the last 24 hours.

Avdiyivka, Bakhmut, Toretsk, Kostyantynivka, Kurakhove, Hostre, Kurdyumivka, Vesele and Kamianka all came under shelling from #Russia.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
Very clever!
Being shared (carefully) by some in #Russia and many in #Ukraine over the last few days.
The original was apparently seen on a wall in St Petersburg.

#StopPutin #SaveUkraine
#Russia formally admits the strikes on #Odesa

FM spokeswoman Mariya Zakharova says "Caliber missiles destroyed the military infrastructure of the #Odessa port, sending a Ukrainian military boat to the address beloved by the Kyiv regime with a precision strike."
#Ukraine's security service releases a video, overlaid with an intercepted phone call.

A Russian soldier tells his mum (rough translation) "the guys were watching a movie in their tank when they just bombed them with a drone. 15 are Cargo 200 (dead)"

The USA is seriously considering labelling #Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism.

@USAmbKyiv Bridget Brink made the statement in this interview.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

A big fire in #Darivka (RU: #Daryevka) in #Kherson region. This is where Ukraine hit a bridge over the River Inhulets yesterday.
Today it seems only fields are burning.
Still in #Kherson oblast...

A well-known UA journalist reports explosions in #Kakhovka. Oleh Baturin only refers to broken windows and no news on any potential target.

#SaveUkraine #StopRussianAggression
#Donetsk is getting noisy again.

This has just been uploaded to social networks with a number of similar videos from the occupied city.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
#Ukraine held #Kostiantynivka suffered a big blow early this morning.

CCTV footage has just been released of the moment a Russian missile smashed in to a building in the town.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Interesting investigation published by The Insider earlier. They tell how Russian contractors who refuse to fight after the 3 months they signed up for, are initially locked up in #Luhansk, then forced to go to the front anyway.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine

#Russia lost another Su-25 attack jet today.
That's according to #Ukraine's military which says paratroopers downed the aircraft with MANPADS.

facebook.com/www.dshv.mil.g…
Authorities in #Khmelnytskyi say all four Caliber cruise missiles were hit by air defence early today.

It's now known #Russia fired four missiles from the Black Sea on the city in west #Ukraine.

Air raid warnings sounding in many areas of #Ukraine right now including #Kyiv.
There are reports of explosions in #Dnipropetrovsk region.

#StopRussia
#Ukraine has lost one of its most successful Commanders. Vitaliy Gulyaev died from rocket fire in the #Mykolaiv region yesterday.

The commander of the 28th brigade, stopped #Russia's advance in the south, pushing them back in #Mykolaiv and #Kherson.

novynarnia.com/2022/07/24/na-…
This is the scene in #Dnipro tonight.
Two explosions reported so far, with a large fire reported at one of the sites.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
#Dnipro update:

Early reports are that the fire in #Dnipropetrovsk region may have happened after missiles were brought down by air defence.

#StandWithUkraine
#Dnipropetrovsk region

A clearer photo of the fire after the explosions.
Exact location not allowed to be released yet.

All information so far is unofficial.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
#Ukraine isn't alone in having problems with wildfires right now, but a whole lot of separate blazes have broken out in #Kherson region during the evening.

They appear unrelated to missile attacks. In the current situation regarding grain it's an added problem.
This is how things are going in occupied #Kherson.

There's been no-one serving at the McDonald's drive through for ages!

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Conflicting stories in #Zaporizhzhia tonight...

Most semi official channels in the city are not reporting any strikes. But some have published this photo claiming a rocket landed.

So, nothing confirmed right now...

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussianAggression
It's very loud in occupied #Donetsk tonight...

#Donbas #Ukraine
And #Russia's air defence has been busy in #Makiivka (RU: #Makeevka), which is right next to #Donetsk.

No confirmation yet of whether any rockets landed.
UPDATE:
The missiles launched on #Dnipropetrovsk tonight appear to be on the town of #Nikopol' again and surrounding areas near the river.

Officials say no injuries and no major damage.
"No panic" says Mayor of Nikopol Yevheni Yevtushenko

The Head of #Zaporizhzhia says there have not been any missiles/rockets landing in the city tonight.

It looks like #Ukriane's air defences have worked well again.

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

Good morning world, on Day 1076 of #Russia's genocidal war on #Ukraine

It's now 14 days since Trump's inauguration & no peace deal, but his "peace envoy" Kellogg is expected to visit both aggressor and defender soon.

Here's Monday's daily thread. All you need to be in the know
Daily🧵views were slightly up over the weekend, which is heartening as it's a critical time.

#Ukraine is starting to hurt #Russia logistically, while Putin responds by killing civilians, confident he'll soon get a Trump-pass.

Read Sunday's news here:
While #Ukraine hurt #Russia infrastructure during the night (covered at the end of last night's thread), the terrorist state still has success with its own drone attacks.

More than 11% got through 🇺🇦defences overnight, with 38 of 71 UAVs being stopped and 25 likely decoys. Image

Sunday 19 January is Day 1061 of #Russia's all-out war in #Ukraine. We are also just 2 weeks away from the 4,000th day since #Moscow's initial invasion with the start of its illegal takeover of #Crimea

Welcome to another daily thread with all the news you need in one place 💙💛
Thankfully a quieter start to Sunday than yesterday, which means I get a later start today.

Saturday was all about #Russia's double ballistic attack which brought death to 2 #Ukraine cities.
Catch up on that and all yesterday's stories here⬇️

#Russia's overnight attack was less intense, but still, two attack drones slipped through the net according to #Ukraine's air defence figures.

43 of 61 UAVs were destroyed, with 15 decoy/simulation drones posing no threat and one still flying this morning. Image

Hello on Day 1054 of #Russia's terrorist campaign in #Ukraine.

I've been working for a while today, tidying up loose ends, but a late start to the daily thread - the only feed you need for all the important news and analysis.

So a lot to catch up on, let's go again!
Normally I pin the first post of the thread on my profile page, but for another 24 hours the pinned item is about the auction for a truly unique item - please check it out

So, it's even more important I post a link back to yesterday's thread. Here we are
#Ukraine's air defence team worked very efficiently last night and this morning.

#Russia launched 94 drones from four directions.
60 were shot down and 34 more 'simulators' or others were also stopped.

Some houses in #Kharkiv #Sumy and #Poltava regions were damaged by debris. Image

Christmas Day 2024. Day 1036 of the war inflicted on #Ukraine. The third Christmas for Ukrainian people to suffer. Empty chairs at the dinner table, that will never be filled again. Others at the frontline fighting for their lives and the life of the country.

It's the daily🧵
So Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to those celebrating.

A special shout out too, to those working this special day. Also working today, emergency workers in #Ukraine after another massive missile attack

Before that, catch up on yesterday's news here
Thank you to all those who've sent me Christmas messages and bought me coffee - I will round up the sponsors' roll of honour later today.

But first the grim, but expected, news of #Russia's missile attack carried out this Christmas morning.

First the breaking news - and a third attack of the night inside #Russia.

At the end of yesterday's thread you may have read of the drone attacks on #Voronezh and #Belgorod regions. Well now it's become clear that #Novgorod has also been attacked by #Ukraine's UAVs..
