You've found the start of daily thread number 192 covering #Russia's illegal war in #Ukraine

Last night some stories on the thread included the tale of a kindergarten head sacked in Russia and another chapter in #RussiaOnFire. Catch what you missed:

1/2

#Kharkiv came under heavy fire again this morning.

It happens almost every night. This time a volley of missiles being fired was caught on drone footage. #Russia fired from Belgorod

These are S-300s not designed for this purpose, lacking accuracy

#RussiaIsATerroristState
2/2

Mayor of #Kharkiv Terekhov says air defences took down some missiles. But there was a hit by a school in the Novobavarsky district.

Air raid warning was active, no casualties reported.

#Kharkov #Ukraine #StopRussia
Quite a few other cities came under fire tonight too.

In #Dnipro a blaze reported after one "arrival".
The usual shelling of southern #Zaporizhzhia region too without much harm while in #Donetsk, the city of #Kramatorsk was hit by #Russia's artillery

#StopRussia
In #Dnipropetrovsk region photos of the fires after Russian rockets hit the city of #Dnipro itself (photo #1), and the other photo shows #Marhanets with censorship applied under the terms of Martial Law.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
Reports coming in of a missile hitting #Mykolaiv region too. Another fire blazing now.

Again no further information regarding exact location until released by the local authority.

#Nikolaev #Ukraine #RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine
Smoke too rising above the skyline in #Donetsk as dawn breaks in the occupied city.
The #USA has refused to issue any visas to members of #Russia's government for the UN General Assembly meeting in New York.

The Foreign Minister of the Terrorist State, Sergey Lavrov as well as FM spokeswoman Mariya Zakharova were among the 56 applicants.
#Russia claims it has repelled an attempt by #Ukraine to land troops from boats in #Enerhodar.

The statement was made by Russia's head of the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia, Volodymyr Rogov, although he failed to provide any proof.

#RussiansGoHome #SaveUkraine
A #Russian air defence system destroyed yesterday in #Oleshky.

#Kherson is now really short of effective defence with relatively few rockets being shot down anywhere in the occupied region.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussiaNOW
The British Intelligence update poses the question how does Russia plan to fill the gaps.

But remember we've already seen vast numbers of equipment on the move in #Crimea, presumably now in #Kherson.
Once again all the first four totals on the daily estimate of #Russia's losses are above average.

A reminders these are unverified #Ukraine govt estimates.

#RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine
I don't know if #Dnipropetrovsk has the best air defence, the best operators or hides the truth. But once again they claim to have shot down all 5 rockets fires overnight.

The fire and damage was due to fragments falling to ground.

#Dnipro #Ukraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
A small explosion reported in #NovaKakhovka.

It happened near the Post Office in the occupied town in #Kherson oblast. NK is an important place to try to recapture because of road/transport links. For the moment #Ukraine has fire control.
How artists, despite having the right idea, can make a really bad and offensive mistake.

This is definitely not a war where laying down arms will rectify matters. False equivalency is a big problem for #Ukraine's people.
Please read the short thread:

The funeral of Mikhail Gorbachev is underway in #Moscow.

No state funeral, no Putin, even some media ignoring the last goodbye to the final President of the #USSR, and without whom modern #Russia may not exist.
A lovely story here from #Kyrgyzstan.

A pensioner in the capital #Bishkek sells #Ukraine ribbons to raise money for the country's fight against #Russia.

He wants to show how many in the country support Ukraine and hopes to visit #Kyiv after the war:

#Putin gives out another 🏅 to a "Hero of #Russia"

This hero should still be in prison for murder. Ivan Neparatov killed 3 people, sentenced to 25 years in 2010.

Double win for Putin. No prison costs and as a "volunteer", family may not be compensated?

Oh look who turned up to Gorbachev's funeral...
Hungary's Orbán, often a friend for #Russia.

He says he has no plans to meet #Putin on his visit to #Moscow.
#Yekaterinburg has a reputation for being liberal with quite a lot of anti-Putin sentiment.

Today at the statue of Peter the Great, a sign suggests he should be a "foreign agent" (for opening up🇷🇺 to the west)

Y'day even more people were designated Foreign Agents

📸@Activatica
Seems a collaborator in #Donetsk is starting to realise people may not like occupation after all!

Deputy Head of Kirovsky district, Viktor Antonyuk shouting "You didn’t give a f*** about me!” to locals who have no water - even threatening to withhold a promised barrel of water.
Even at a distance smoke is still visible above #Oleshky in #Kherson region.

Listen carefully and you can still hear explosions, presumably ammunition?

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
#Donetsk - another strike in the occupied city.
A fire burns at the scene in the #Kyivskyi district.

Unknown target, or even which side fired the rocket.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia #Donbas
In case you wonder what #Putin's 23 years have done to the mindset of many, take a look at this post by Igor Strelkov/Girkin. He was an architect of the initial invasion in 2014 and for a short while a minister in the "#Donetsk" puppet regime.

#Gorbachev now Judas and scum
A man threw 4 Molotov cocktails at a police station in #Russia.

The incident happened in #Izhevsk where the 25 year old also stabbed two officers during his detention, but police shot him 8 times according to this report.
One officer is seriously ill.

udm-info.ru/news/incident/…
#Russia says it has destroyed yet another #HIMARS launcher in #Ukraine, despite the fact it's already destroyed all of them!

Moscow's Ministry of Defence also claims to have downed 2 x Su-25 jets and one MiG-29 in #Dnipropetrovsk region.
🤥
And more details from the Russian propaganda ministry on this supposed attack by #Ukraine

🇷🇺 says 42 boats and more than 250 troops tried to land in #Enerhodar & #Dniproprudny.

They claim 20 boats were destroyed by Ka-52 helicopters.

Surprised it took #Russia so long to manufacture this utterly predictable course of action.

"The energy supply from the #Zaporizhzhia plant to territories controlled by Kyiv was suspended after the power line was damaged due to Ukrainian shelling"

#RussiaIsATerroristState
A health & spa complex in #Kherson has been shelled.

The "Lost World" site is owned by Russian-imposed "head" of the region Saldo, currently in Moscow recovering from poisoning.

It's reported by locals that Russian troops used the site as a base and relaxing area.
#StopRussia
Oh, look at this! They've only gone and hit the #Antonivka area east of #Kherson again.
It could be the Antonivskyi bridge to deter any repairs, location not specified yet.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
#Kharkiv has not escaped shelling today.

The #Zolochiv community, less than 20km from the Russian border is badly hit. Local leader Viktor Kovalenko reports buildings of the agricultural firm Alfa were hit this morning.

This afternoon 4 houses and power lines were damaged.
News coming in of a terrible accident in #Chernihiv region of #Ukraine.

At a military exhibition a 10 year old boy somehow managed to fire a grenade launcher.
His 12 year old brother is among 8 reported wounded. A two year old is fighting for his life.

#StandWithUkraine
#Sevastopol #Crimea
Smoke is rising from the centre of the main city on the occupied peninsula.

Some people say they heard explosions, but this is not yet confirmed.
Oh, drama over in #Sevastopol ...

turned out to be a battle reconstruction scaring locals in #Crimea 😂😂

Cameras were rolling at the moment the accident happened in #Chernihiv.

The panic is clear among the crowd.

Still confusion about Nord-Stream(1)

Some gas has come through the pipeline connecting #Russia to #Germany. Yesterday the Kremlin claimed repairs were needed and the gas flow couldn't be turned back on

Seeing no great outrage from EU, Moscow probably decided to flick the switch
Around 70,000 are protesting against the pro-western Govt in #Czechia

The far right (anti migration) & far left (Communists) have bizarrely joined forces for the rally in #Prague. One of their complaints is Russian sanctions - but bear in mind RU money has influenced a lot here
#Ukraine's General Staff hints at #Russia making some ground in #Donetsk region.

The invaders seem to have advanced the front a little near #Bakhmut and #Avdiivka, but Kyiv then reports that they were pushed back to previous positions.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
It looks as though the road bridge in #NovaKakhovka (RU: Novaya Kakhovka) has partially collapsed after the incessant heavy artillery fire.

Satellite photos from #Planet show the damage. The railway bridge is still standing but also unusable exactly as #Ukraine has reported.
On the outskirts of #Kharkiv local residents report seeing so called "chandeliers"

Usually lighting munitions rather than phosphorus warheads, but they can still cause fires and destruction as well as lighting up an area to reveal enemy positions/manoeuvres

#StopRussia
in #Mykolaiv region an 8 year old boy has been killed and three other children injured by Russian shelling today.

The village of Visunsk in #Bashtansky area was hit.
Some adults also received minor wounds.
Photos from #Ukraine police.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
Pres @ZelenskyyUa demands action against those responsible for allowing children to explode live ammunition in #Chernihiv today
"All those responsible must be brought to justice..
I call on representatives of local authorities to be very careful so that this never happens again."
Another child was killed earlier by Russian shelling.

This time a 9 year old boy died in #Zelenodolsk in #Dnipropetrovsk region. Ten other civilians were injured.

Governor Valentin Reznichenko says Russia used "Hurricanes" (Ugaran) rockets on the people
#RussiaIsATerroristState
In #Sloviansk the centre has been shelled according to local reports.

There is now a fire in the #Ukraine held city.

#Donetsk #Ukraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
1/2
To #Kharkiv now, under attack again in the last few minutes.

Earlier I wrote about "chandelier" bombs on the outskirts of #Kharkov. There's now a clearer video of the consequences.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
2/2

Now two more missiles have hit #Kharkiv in the north east of #Ukraine.

The mayor Ihor Terekhov confirms "arrivals" in the #Kyivskyi district "in the private sector"

No news yet about casualties.
#SaveUkraine #Kharkov #StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState
More from #Kharkiv - this time in the region, outside the city.

There is a fire at the scene of another rocket strike.
No further details released yet.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
A fire in #Donetsk region after missiles landed.

This is in #Chystiakove (formerly #Torez and still the name used by most locals). They say a barn is on fire, though #Ukraine's forces may have identified another Russian base.

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.

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..

Tuesday 19 November 2024.
I can't quite believe we reached 1,000 days.
#Ukraine is still free, refusing to buckle to the imperialist #Russia

I'm incredibly proud to have documented every single moment, no days off, no holiday, no sickness.

UkrainaOnline encapsulated 1000 days
If you like what I do, if you've never done it before, please consider buying me a coffee on this milestone day. It took a hell of a lot of work.

Thank you to my #TeamTim

Today is Day 999 of Europe's war

It's cold in the UK today. Imagine if you didn't have heat. Not just for one day, but maybe for most of the winter Now imagine it's 10 degrees colder

If you can do that you understand what people in #Ukraine feel, or fear.
Welcome to my daily🧵
Monday and Tuesday are days of mourning in #Sumy region after an horrific attack on an apartment block.

It was the last in a long line of murders of civilians by #Russia on Sunday.

I produced the longest thread for months (over 60 posts) - catch up here
Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.

An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.

Day 998 of #Russia's all out war, and Sunday 17 Nov is the day #Moscow's war criminals chose for the big missile attack on #Ukraine

It's such a difficult time for anyone associated with Ukraine. With the election of Musk/Trump, Putin's convinced terrorism will win.
Here's the🧵
Before I forget, here's the link for yesterday's thread. I know many of you like to catch up on what you've missed in #Ukraine and stories connected to the war.

#Ukraine's FM takes a swipe at #Germany's Chancellor Scholz while declaring this one of the largest air attacks.

From #Chernihiv in the north, to #Odesa in the south.
#Kharkiv in the east to #Lviv in the west. #Russia hits them all.

Hello and welcome to Day 996 of #Russia's barbaric war.

Putin's band of war criminals is throwing everything at #Ukraine's defenders for 2 months as the Kremlin is certain tRUmp will force negotiations and wants to be in the strongest position possible.

Here's the daily thread
#Russia is literally teetering on the edge of economic meltdown. If the west does not take this opportunity to ensure justice, protect borders and prosecute war criminals, historians will look back and shake their heads. They may also ask why do anything in the previous 3 years?
Anyway, let's get on with the stories of the day, although we start as ever with the link back to Thursday's thread.

It was a day which saw more problems for #Russia, more war crimes with a civilian shot dead on the street and a terrible attack on #Odesa
