I'm starting a daily thread on #Russia's illegal war for the 200th time.

Yes, we made it to Day 200, but Putin's 4-day "special operation" to take #Kyiv and 10-days to control all of #Ukraine is going "according to plan"😉🤥

All the Ukraine news, all day every day right here⬇️
First, notice the date, 11 September or "9/11"
Please remember all the victims of that horrific day in the U.S.

Hopefully #Russia's terrorism is being beaten thanks to the heroes of #Ukraine, at the front, protecting a free country.
Saturday was amazing:

Last night Pres @ZelenskyyUa announced that two more villages in #Kharkiv had been liberated; #Vasylenkove and #Artemivka.

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
In the wider #Dnipropetrovsk region the usual suspects of #Nikopol and #Marhanets were shelled again overnight.

Over 30 grad rockets were fired at the former, injuring 3 people.

Damage to 35 residential buildings, educational institutions, cars, gas pipelines & power lines.
As dawn broke in #Kherson oblast, fireworks were still spraying out in #NovaKakhovka.

Another Howitzer hit on a Russian arms dump - the "show" lasted well over 2 hours with ammunition constantly exploding.

#SlavaUkraini #StopRussia
⚡️Breaking⚡️

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.

This is the scene of one of the hits.
#Dnbas #Ukraine
While #Ukraine has done amazingly well in the east of #Kharkiv there are reports of #Russia advancing in the north of the region.

Kozacha Lopan, just 3km from the Russian border, may well have been captured by the invaders along with Sosnivka a hamlet a little further west.
9 civilians wounded, four seriously, in #Mykolaiv (#Nikolaevwhen a missile landed in the city.

Residential buildings are damaged after one big missile landed in the courtyard.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #RussiansGoHome
Another big explosion in #Ukraine-held territory.

This is the lunchtime view of #Bakhmut (RU: #Artemovsk) in #Donetsk region. Quite possibly another fuel dump.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
#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.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
Update on the #Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in occupied #Enerhodar.
Thankfully immediate fears have eased.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussiaNOW

#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🇷🇺

#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.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
A clutch more settlements in #Kharkiv region officially liberated from #Russia's occupation.

Neighbouring cities of #Sloviansk and #Kramatorsk have both been hit in attacks by #Russia this afternoon.

.. and a few kilometres away in #Sloviansk another apartment block has been shelled.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
#Russia's retreat from #Kherson?

Extraordinary claims on a usually reliable (pro-#Ukraine) Telegram channel in the occupied city.

Normally I'd dismiss it, but after yesterday, anything's possible!
Here's the translation

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
100%
💙💛These colours don't run!

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.

#VseBudeUkraina #SlavaUkraini
#Ukraine's General Staff has just confirmed the "mighty" Russian army is now retreating from positions in #Kherson region.

Yesterday #Russia's occupation in #Kharkiv region collapsed.

No further details yet...

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
Some of #Ukraine's heroes celebrate the liberation of #Izium with shouts of #SlavaUkraini and victorious gunfire into the air.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia
#Ukraine under attack. much of #Kharkiv #Kramatorsk #Kremenchuk #Poltava and #Sumy all left without electricity after #Russia struck the thermal power plant in Kharkiv.

It's also reported there are power outages in #Russia's border city of #Belgorod.
Following on from the previous tweet, parts of #Odesa and #Dnipropetrovsk regions are also known to be without electricity.

It follows #Russia's missile strikes at the power station in #Kharkiv and power lines.
Video clip of a huge blast to hit #Voznesensk in #Mykolaiv region today.

It's about 50 miles/80km north-west from the city of #Mykolaiv/#Nikolaev.

This was is nowhere near over. Do not be complacent.
As daylight faded in #Donetsk a little earlier, there were more strikes in the occupied city.
This in the Kyivsky district.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Looks like #Russia may have hit the Thermal Power Plant in #Kremenchuk/#kremenchug as well as the strike on #Kharkiv.

This is just one of the cities currently sitting in darkness.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussiaNOW
Update:

In #Sumy, #Dnipropetrovsk and #Poltava regions of #Ukraine, electricity supplies have been restored,

Work is ongoing in #Kharkiv where the original shelling of the power plant happened.

The former Head of #Kharkiv's intelligence unit has been arrested on suspicion of treason.

3 months ago Roman Dudin was fired from his position with the SBU. More details of the accusations are expected tomorrow.

#Ukraine
First sight of the blaze at the power plant in #Kharkiv.

Russia's missiles earlier caused a loss of electricity in many regions.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
#Lviv airport hopes to be allowed to resume work shortly.

No flights in or out of #Ukraine have been permitted since #Russia's full invasion in February.
In #Zaporizhzhia a young mother tells her child "don't be scared" as missiles fall near their home.

#Russia has fired 5 rockets on the city.

Remind me, which side is the Nazis?

This Russian blogger has 188,000 followers

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.

Tuesday 29 July. Day 1252.
Documenting all the important stories and developments in Ukraine's ongoing fight for survival against an invading horde.

Every Single Day. No break, no days off.
All the news from the war in Europe, all the time.
Monday was probably a better day for Ukraine.
We saw Trump appear to lose patience with indicted war criminal Putin, we saw a Ukraine flag replanted in one reclaimed village & late in the thread more strikes on Russia's rail infrastructure.

Catch up here
I'll begin in Rostov region, where earlier Ukraine hit railway infrastructure in the town of Salsk.

Pretty much the whole of the rail network in Rostov oblast is crucial to Russia's military. The proximity to occupied parts of Ukraine & the route to Crimea run through here. Image

Day 1249 of terrorism being inflicted on Ukraine.

It's been another very difficult night as Russia pounds major cities with combined attacks.

I'm still documenting all the war crimes - no sleep yet, please support my work with a KoFi (link in profile)

Here's Saturday's thread
Russia's night time attack is continuing.
Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions have been most badly hit.

You can read about most of the attack towards the end of Friday's thread - it's another big one and here's the link for the start; click & scroll..

This is the shocking sight in Dnipro after the latest of many missile attacks on the city and wider region this morning.

Day 1247
It's never ending. At least it feels like it after another sleepless night and "peace talks" that lasted 40 minutes and Russia still refusing Trump's demand for a ceasefire, which Ukraine agreed to 135 days ago.

All the news, all the time, it's the daily Ukraine🧵
A quick reminder if you appreciate my work (and lack of sleep) you can donate coffee via the link in my bio🙏

But this is the link you probably really want! To check back on all yesterday's news, especially when Russia was attacked late at night.

So last night ended with a lot of damage in southern Ukraine & southern Russia

Part of the damage in the Sochi/Adler are of Krasnodar region seems to have been self-inflicted.

Here's a new video of what seems to be Russian air defence missing but landing harmlessly this time.

You've found the start of another daily thread. I've not missed one day since Russia's full invasion, bringing all the Ukraine news in one handy thread every single day.

It's Day 1246, let's begin.
A late finish last night for me (yeah, not unusual), so a later start.

But not due to a massive Russian attack, but because of the political situation & public backlash

Another bumper thread, big Ukraine street protests for the 1st time in years in here
The biggest thing today will hopefully be the resumption of talks between Ukraine and Russia.

The meeting will again take place in Istanbul, starting at 7pm UKR time, 5PM BST, noon EST.
Venue is the Çırağan Palace - can't wait to hear reporters butcher that name😂 [Cheer-raan] Image

Day 1245
One thousand, two hundred + forty-five days of battling to survive against what was said to be the world's 2nd greatest army.

Ukraine's resistance has been heroic but still a lot of work to do.

I'm starting Tuesday's thread before sleep as the air attack just ended.
Monday's thread was another 50-post marathon

A lot of problems for Russia, with drones, planes, trains and the elements. But another major Ukraine city was hit in the early hours of this morning.
All yesterday's news is here, click and scroll to catch-up
Straight to events in Odesa then.
At around 2am Russian drones descended on the city.

There seem to be 3 sites of damage - though at least one may be debris damage.

Mayor Hennadiy Trukhanov, a great self publicist, released a video after visiting the site of the worst damage.

Day 1243 of Russia's gross violation of the peaceful world order. Breaking UN Rules and the Geneva Conventions. Doing anything to anyone in a bid to eliminate Ukraine and all its people who won't bow down to the Führer of the 21st century.

Here's yet another daily thread.
Well, for a country at war, it's been a quiet night and day so far in Ukraine.

Mind you, not so in Russia, and the previous 24 hours turned out a little crazy, with a 50-page thread to get your teeth into if you were busy on Saturday:

No missiles were fired at Ukraine overnight, and "only" 57 attack drones.

As Russia fired mostly at soft targets in front line regions, the air defence stats don't look good.

Just 18 UAVs were shot down and 7 stopped by EW, which is 44% Image
