It's Friday and the war in #Ukraine never stops.

Today I'll try to find out what really happened in #Crimea while #Russia bombs🇺🇦again

Only just realised I made a typo on the day number. Yesterday was Day 176, today is the 177th day of the illegal war.

Still nothing 100% confirmed from #Crimea after a lot of activity last night.

In both #Kerch and #Sevastopol the occupiers say they shot down🇺🇦drones to explain explosions.

Many sources say the main Belbek airport was hit as 4 very loud bangs rang out

It is generally accepted though that #Ukraine took out one of #Russia's ammo bases near the border.

Two villages were evacuated by #Belgorod authorities after the cache was struck near the village of #Timonovo - this evidence was too hard to conceal.

The fact #Ukraine's Presidential Adviser Oleskiy Arestovych openly trolled #Russia almost immediately as the drama unfolded in #Crime and #Belgorod, increases the likelihood this was a coordinated multiple-strike by Kyiv.

In occupied #Kherson big losses reported for #Russia

#Ukraine's South command says it again hit Kakhovskyi bridge by Kakhovka hydroelectric plant

In 4 strikes in the area, they claim destruction of:
73 🇷🇺 troops
3 tanks
4 launchers
1 air defence radar
5 armoured vehicles
Ammo

In #Mykolaiv, the Mayor this morning has confirmed "powerful explosions"

The city also seems to have been hit before midnight as several powerful explosions rang out in #Nikolaev.

However, unusually, no photos or videos from either "attack" posted yet.

#StopRussia

⚡️Breaking⚡️

#Kharkiv is under attack right now.
It's virtually a nightly occurrence. The north east city has been the subject of the heaviest attacks in recent weeks.

#Kharkov #StopRussia
#RussiaIsATerroristState

It seems at least 3 missiles have hit #Kharkiv.
Another video - this time the moment of one of the missiles arriving in the city.

The image has to be pixelated in line with Martial Law.

#StandWithUkraine #Kharkov

Another video from #Kharkiv.
This is from strikes on the city - also reports of one attack in the #Kharkov region.

#SaveUkraine #StopRussiaNOW

The all-clear has been sounded in #Kharkiv.

#Kharkov mayor Terekhov's initial update states there were blows in the Kyivsky, Osnovyansky + Nemyshlyansky districts.

A residential building was struck, without casualties, while there's a fire after "infrastructure" was hit.

Occupiers in #Donetsk say a woman was killed by shelling in #Horlivka.

* Caution - Video shows a body covered with a sheet *

Earlier I reported on the attack on #Mykolaiv.

First light has brought the first picture.
Again, #Russia has targeted the historic Petro Mohyla university.

#Nikolaev #StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState

Russian occupiers are getting edgy in #Crimea

On the outskirts of #Sevastopol new roadblocks/checkpoints occurred.

#StopRussiaNOW #StandWithUkraine

#Kramatorsk has also been shelled by #Russia this morning.

The targets are educational institutions. No casualties reported.

#StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState

Today an exceptionally high number of Russian soldiers reported to have died. Also a massive amount of vehicles destroyed.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome #StopRussia

After the secret filming inside the #Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant at #Enerhodar, the Russians suddenly admit its military IS inside the plant.

Minister Sergey Rybakov says it's "to guarantee that a Chernobyl scenario will not be implemented" 🤡

https://twitter.com/TWMCLtd/status/1560358685855080448

He's right. More fossil fuels bought from #Russia means more cash for The Kremlin's war. More destruction, more death and even worse for the environment.

#Kharkiv - the moment when you look for where you left your car the night before😂😂

#Kharkov #Ukraine #StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState

Reports in #Kursk region of #Russia that it was attacked by drones today.

The usually reliable TG channel Baza exclusively revealed 5 bombs were dropped in 2 separate incidents.

A border guard was injured and cars damaged.
No photos or evidence.
#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine

The death toll in the attack on a dormitory in #Kharkiv has risen to 21.

In total six bodies were discovered in the rubble, which has just been cleared, 30 hours after the attack.

Nine people were rescued, including two children.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine #Kharkov

The Secretary General of the @UN arrived in #Odesa.
It's his first visit to #Ukraine's largest port.

#Odessa #StandWithUkraine

The President of #Kazakhstan has arrived in #Russia.

After some of his recent statements and actions, I'd advise President Tokaev to avoid cups of tea and not stand near any windows.
He is meting Putin in Sochi - let's see if he still says the same after Kremlin pressure.

Awaiting news from occupied #Kherson region

More explosions reported on social media by locals in #NovaKakhovka in the last few minutes, but could be supersonic aircraft.
Recently #Ukraine has attacked the bridges by the #Kakhovka hydroelectric plant

#NovayaKakhovka #StopRussia

It looks like #Ukraine has found something interesting in the Kievskyi district of #Donetsk.

Coordinated strikes on a target a little earlier.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine️

#UN chief @antonioguterres insists electricity generated at the Russian-held #Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant belongs to #Ukraine

Speaking in #Odesa, Mr Guterres reacting to rumours #Russia was may cut the power from Ukraine's grid said "This principle must be fully respected."

"Darwin awards" new candidate.

Some clever Russian soldiers messed around with a drone, filming their camp...

But forgot to wipe the memory card, lost control of the drone, Ukraine captured it and the memory card showing them where in #Mykolaiv region the enemy was!

#Nikolaev

#Russia announced it will stop pumping any gas to Europe through its Nord-Stream pipeline at the end of the month.

Gazprom has announced it needs to carry out maintenance and supplies are being stopped for 3 days from 31 August.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine

Turns out Macron's been calling Vova again...

#Russia's state news agency released details of Putin's conversation with the French President, with The Kremlin taking the opportunity to give the Russian version of what's happening at the nuclear plant.

This #Ukraine news organisation reckons Putin sent Erdogan to L'viv to try to get a ceasefire.

The Turkish and Russian Presidents met recently in Asia before Erdogan headed to Ukraine. It's thought #Russia wants a break "to restore combat capability"

24tv.ua/rezultati-pere…

A whole load of new aid coming #Ukraine's way.

The United States is set to announce $775m worth of equipment including drones and "mine resistant" vehicles.

16 new Howitzer rocket launchers will also be part of the deal to help #StopRussia

An NGO based in #Ukraine has asked #Switzerland's government to investigate a possible war crime on one of its citizens

Journalist Guillaume Briquet was wounded in #Mykolaiv region in March. His car, with Swiss plates + "PRESS" written on it was attacked

swissinfo.ch/por/queixa-apr…

Occupiers in #Mariupol are finally getting around to demolishing some of the buildings they ruined.

It's very likely hundreds, maybe thousands of bodies, were never humanely recovered. Easy to hide the war crimes with no-one watching you.
#RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine

A rare glimpse of some of the thousands of wounded Russians heading home from #Ukraine.

They're the lucky ones, escaping with their lives intact in this senseless and illegal war launched by #Russia.
