We are still no nearer knowing the real reason for the devastating blow to #Russia on #Crimea
#Ukraine again denies it's anything to do with them, but no-one believes the RU version of an "accident"
To get an idea of the force of the blasts, watch the last few seconds of this:

13 people are dead after shelling in #Dnipropetrovsk region this morning. 11 more civilians are injured.
12 died when around 40 grads hit the centre of #Maryanets near Nikopol. Two schools and more than 20 high rise apartment blocks were hit.

It's inescapable to wonder if the shelling of residential areas will increase because of @amnesty's report.
Did the discredited NGO give Putin a war crimes pass?

Explosions in the #Russian city of #Yeysk today too.
As you can see it's the closest city to #Mariupol'. But it's a long way from any #Ukraine positions.
Looks like an oil terminal is on fire.

#Russia has just admitted 9 planes were destroyed at the #Saki airfield in #Crimea.
That's up from zero yesterday 🤣
I still think it's a lot worse than that for the Terrorist state.

Occupiers in #Kherson have just claimed "The Armed Forces of Ukraine again tried to shell the bridge across the Dnipro near #Kherson, no new damage"
Maybe dreaming again? #Ukraine has been hitting bases but not the bridge

Speaking of #Kherson - partisans are still active.
The Resistance in #Henichesk (RU: #Genichesk) has been active through the night.

Britain's intel update is worth reading today.
There's a lot of recruitment desperately going on in #Russia as I've often written about.
But it "won't be decisive" according to London.

One of the few remaining honest reporting outfits in #Russia, @novaya_gazeta has been fined 350,000 rubles.

The @washingtonpost joins the New York Times in saying #Ukraine WAS responsible for the attack on a Crimean airfield at Saky.
"The attack marks a sharp escalation and demonstrates the ability of UA forces to strike further behind Russian lines than previously thought."

Sorry about the lack of timely updates today - non stop tennis commentary is the reason!
It is a fairly quite day on the battlefield but that still death, destruction and many stories to catch up on.
#Ukraine's says it has downed a Russian attack jet:

Today the first video has emerged of the damage #HIMARS caused to the Kakhovka Bridge in #Kherson.
Much focus has been on the Antonivskyi road route over the Dnipro, but this is almost as important by the Hydroelectric power plant.

Speaking of damage from #HIMARS - I have to wonder if they were really responsible for the immense destruction on #Russia's air base in #Crimea.
The amount of damage became clear today with new satellite photos giving us nice before/after comparisons.

Officials in Occupied #Donetsk say one person died and two were injured as a result of the shelling of #Pyvzavod.
The Russians also claim an ammonia pipeline was damaged and advise residents to stay indoors, seal apartments and breathe through gauze moistened with 5% mild acid.

Some significant financial news for #Ukraine today too.
Reuters reports $20 billion of foreign debt the country owes, has been frozen for two years.
With no payments now due on international bonds it means #Ukraine cannot default which would worsen the country's plight.

Another act of sabotage in #Russia
A railway line has been damaged in #Kursk region. It's thought saboteurs tried to blow-up the Lgov-Sudzha line.
Just hours earlier in Kursk, someone tried to blow up a power line 20km from the Kursk nuclear power plant.
