In truth it's just that #Ukraine's forces only just walked in there. Here's @TheStudyofWar's new map showing how much land is confirmed reclaimed in Kharkiv
While there are rumours of #Ukraine's army already fighting to reclaim #Donetsk airport, #Lysychansk + #Severodonetsk, I'm treating these as just rumours until I get confirmation
100% we do know🇺🇦 crossed the Siversky Donets river in #Donetsk and is fighting for #Lyman + #Yampil
A poerful missile struck the centre of #Dnipro city early this morning.
Officials say it landed in the residential area. A 72 year old man is seriously injured.
As well as private houses, shops, a market and administrative buildings were also damaged. #RussiaIsATerroristState
The nuclear power plant at #Enerhodar is in a critical state again after more shelling.
The management agency says the #Zaporizhzhia plant is disconnected from the grid again. They must put it into "cold shutdown" for safety reasons. #RussiaIsATerroristState
At least two missile strikes in occupied #Donetsk.
One man is reported to have died.
#Russia's losses today (according to #Ukraine sources) show higher than average numbers for tanks, aircraft, APVs, other vehicles, special equipment and personnel. Another 400 soldiers died for Putin's illegal war in the last 24 hours.
#Russia has not returned children to #Ukraine who were due to be go home from "summer camp"
They claim it's too dangerous to return them to #Balakliia and #Izium so they stay in #Krasnodar "for a 2nd shift"
Now with no Russians remaining, parents are under pressure to move to🇷🇺
1/2 #Russia needs to deflect from the catastrophic capitulation in #Kharkiv & boost morale.
So this claim is to be treated with caution
🇷🇺says 250 #Ukraine soldiers, 12 APVs destroyed when Iskander missiles hit #Pokrovsk (RU: #Krasnoarmeysk) station during unloading.
2/2
The Head of #Pokrovsk (RU: #Krasnoarmeysk) Ruslan Trebushkin, made a video in the town.
He admits there were 5 cruise missile strikes, so although no sign of APVs, railway here, it is in theory possible they are not showing damage elsewhere.
Exiled Governor Serhiy Haidai published these two photos on his Telegram channel. He says they are from today in #Pishchane, the #Starobil district of the occupied region.
Everything going to plan in the elections across #Russia!
Just in the last hour @Sota_Vision reports one candidate arrested. One official observer kidnapped and now another observer files a complaint after needing hospital treatment after people tried to stop her leaving her car
Just 3 km from the border with #Russia, the village of Hoptivka (RU: #Goptovka) is confirmed as free occupation.
All these places are just abandoned now, The north of #Kharkiv region, right up to the border is likely all #Ukraine controlled now.
Earlier he wrote "It is not enough to return #Ukraine to the middle of the 19th century. These urchins need to be hammered into the stone age. It will be fair."
Satellite photos seem to reveal what looks like plenty of #Iran's equipment being used by #Russia to kill in #Ukraine.
#USA intel said it, Kremlin denied it, so we knew it was true.

Sunday 27 October 2024 - it's Day 977 of #Russia's full invasion. This is the original, the best thread covering the illegal war being waged on #Ukraine.
I've never missed a day, and it's all free, but if you can spare a coffee to support me, please click the link in my bio💙💛
Saturday was another one of those days when sadly, we saw many of the usual #Russia tactics...
Attack civilians, bomb anything they can reach, oh, and hire thugs to help intimidate and fix elections.
Read all about it - click the link to catch up:
The ruling Georgian Dream party has given itself over 54% after almost all votes have been counted.
The united anti-Russia opposition supposedly only managed 37%
However protests are likely after numerous violations on election day.
You've found the start of Sunday's thread dedicated to #Ukraine's fight for democracy, survival and some would say, protecting the west and its neighbours like #Moldova and #Georgia, as #Russia's imperialist ambitions move into overdrive.
Day 970, less than a month 'til 1,000😳
Here's the link to the start of yesterday's thread. I'm heartened to get a lot of messages saying how much they use this, so they can see all the stories of the day quickly and easily.
It was an explosive end to Saturday - explore here:
A lot to get through with the overnight attacks on both countries, but first #Russia losses.
1,340 more invaders killed/maimed.
So, October's now on course to be the bloodiest month ever for Putin's horde. The daily mean is 1,268 just below Sept's 1,272 but with an extra day.
Hello again, welcome to another daily thread covering all things #Ukraine and #Russia as the latter continues its attempt to destroy freedom, democracy and the U.N. charter.
All the news, all the time, fact checked and in one place.
Here's Tuesday thread:

Another #Ukraine port city has been hit tonight.

Two videos from the same apartment, one captured the moment of the hit, the other shows the damage.
Welcome to the weekend, and Day 934 of #Russia's illegal war.
I'm trying to overcome technical problems all this morning, hence the later start.
But I will not be stopped in bringing you the news from, and about, #Ukraine every single day, in one handy thread.
Here's the link to the start of yesterday's thread, for those catching up.

Overnight there were strong explosions near occupied #Mariupol.
It would seem #Ukraine has hit one of #Russia's ammo dumps.

#RussiansGOHOME
#Russia expels 6 UK diplomats, accused of spying. The FSB says the group attended NGO meetings!
