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)"

ssu.gov.ua/novyny/viiskov…
The USA is seriously considering labelling #Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism.

@USAmbKyiv Bridget Brink made the statement in this interview.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

radiosvoboda.org/a/news-posol-u…
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.

A late start to today's thread on Day 1216 of Russia's war of choice, after another late finish due to the latest murderous attack on civilians by Putin's horde.

With all the important news, every day, this is THE best place for Accurate, Reliable, Honest analysis and reporting
Kyiv was again the target overnight, details at the end of yesterday's thread.
But a lot of important and interesting stories Sunday, including how the animal kingdom took revenge on one traitor, but more pain for Ukraine as a training ground is again hit
Zelenskyy is visiting my shores today, speaking with Sir Keir Starmer to discuss joint defence protection, which will probably see an agreement on manufacturing.

Ukraine's leader points out the hypocrisy of Russia, condemning the US strikes in Iran then hours later hitting Kyiv Image

Welcome to another daily thread - THE place for honest assessment and analysis of all the news around Ukraine and Russia.

It's Day 1214 of the full-scale war. I still have an unblemished record - every single day.

Why not show your support with a ☕️?

Russia displayed outright Nazism + Fascism on Friday.

From killing in Ukraine, more utterings from the war-criminal in chief, to locking up young women and taking legal action against small independent new sites.

8 missiles and 272 drones were fired at Ukraine overnight.

ALL Russian missiles were trained on Kremenchuk, but Ukraine claims NONE reached their targets, including 2 x Kindzhals (5 shot, 3 EW)

In addition 252 UAVs were stopped (93%)
140 being shot down, 112 stopped with EW. Image

Thursday 19 June is Day 1212 of the conflict in Europe.

Russia continues to make ground, expending its soldiers at will for a few more metres as Ukraine fights for its existence having been shamefully let down by the USA.

I'm here every single day, so here's today's daily 🧵
Wednesday saw the death toll in Kyiv rise throughout the day, ending at double the number it started at. Then later Putin cynically told journalists they only hit military targets

Elsewhere another traitor to Ukraine met his fate - click here to catch-up
Another milestone is reached.

Trump is now 150 days late in promising "peace within 24 hours" of taking office.

It's also, as @andrii_sybiha points out, 100 days since🇺🇦 agreed to an unconditional ceasefire, as tRUmp demanded.
Russia did what it always does: delay, lie, kill. Image

Tuesday 17 June 2025.

No time to waste. Kyiv is under the most immense attack.

It's Day 1210 of Russia's increasingly desperate attempt to eviscerate Ukraine and all Ukrainians.

Here's the daily thread, continuing to document the night attacks...
Just gone 04:35 in Kyiv.
A hellish night is not yet over.
Apartment blocks, student dormitories hit.
6 districts of Kyiv city damaged, plus other injuries in the wider region

Here's the link for Monday's thread with all the last half showing the chaos:
If you're just waking up, here's an idea of what's happened to Kyiv while you were sleeping.

Ukraine's capital has not slept.
Many are without homes due to Russia's ongoing war crimes and one person, an American, has lost his life during the attack. Image

Hello again. Day 1203 of Russia's genocidal war in Ukraine

Anyone with a brain slightly larger than that of a chihuahua knows it. Russian history and Putin's own words spelt it out, but peaceniks, Naziniks and idiotniks are still in denial

More proof coming up in🧵for Day 1203
Yesterday's thread lasted well over 24 hours, but nothing to be proud of.

I know I'm crazier than you, and thankfully you all have lives to live. So you will be needing the link to the start of yesterday's thread so you can catch up on what you missed..

Genocide - a short thread within a🧵
I am simply staggered governments and world organisations are too weak to acknowledge the mountain of evidence.

The recent huge missile attacks should be enough, but useful idiots are fooled by Russia's plausible deniability.

A very early start to my daily thread on Day 1202 of Russia's 3 day 'special operation' to capture Kyiv.

It's so special Putin just doesn't want it to stop!

It's another no-sleep night as I start Monday's news feed on all things Ukraine.

Thanks for your support, I rely on you
Another huge Russian attack continues as I type. It could be the biggest yet.

The attack started about half way through yesterday's thread! So catch up here if you're just waking up.

The biggest problem in Ukraine tonight has been for Dubno, in Rivne region.

Heavily attacked in the evening, but now as light bathes the town, it's even worse. All cruise missiles in Ukraine are about to hit, and 3 drones too.
