The other big story was #Russia's deliberate bombing of a dam, trying to flood #Ukraine's 7th biggest city, #KrivyiRih (RU: #KrivoyRog)
It's the home town of President @ZelenskyyUa
Late in the evening authorities evacuated houses of those living closest to the river.

Yet another major rail accident in #Russia - a sabotage group claims responsibility.
Here a locomotive carrying oil was derailed in #Nizhnekamsk, in the Republic of #Tatarstan.

Good news from #KryvyiRih - the water level is now falling a little.
112 houses were evacuated overnight due to the flooding caused by #Russia's bombing of a dam.
Engineers carried out 2 more explosions themselves to alleviate the initial problem and are now fixing it.

Ran this video yesterday but now with English subtitles. You may be surprised how open Russia is about this considering they hand out death sentences to "mercenaries" fighting for #Ukraine.

Can't German intelligence shut up stupid politicians there?
Another front would finish off #Russia and Putin. General mobilisation, body bags of the middle classes in Moscow and 'Piter'. Even Georgia's entry to liberate occupied territories would do it.

Another (censored) video from #KryvyiRih (RU: #KrivoyRog) - Zelenskyy's home town - which was hit again today by #Russia.
The fury this is raising among people across #Ukraine is tangible. The determination to "really f***" Russia" is evident.

Pray for the President of Kyrgyzstan.
Anyone who keeps little Putin waiting is destined for "tea with Putler" or a trip through an open window.
Wonder if Putin will be made to wait by Chinese leader when they meet later in the summit.

Trouble for the Occupiers in #Mariupol
Residents, still without water or electricity staged a protest. #Russia promised services would be restored weeks ago, having taken control of the city 4 months ago
This is just one small protest, but it could well spread

Another base of Russia's Occupiers has been obliterated in #Kherson region.
I reckon #NovaKakhovka is running out of ammunition and soldiers. Looking vulnerable to another #Ukraine advance.... just saying!

This is occupied #Luhansk (RU: #Lugansk)
The person filming claims it's an example of guys being rounded up on the street and bundled off to enforced "conscription" to join the war against #Ukraine.
Impossible to verify, but multiple reports of this happening.

Shocking but I'm not shocked.
Everyone knew it must be happening. It's been the same in every village, town or city which #Russia occupied.

Will #Russia obey the #UN order? This resolution was passed 26-2.
Noticeable that #Russia and #China voted against while Burundi, Egypt, India, Pakistan, Senegal, South Africa and Vietnam abstained. Now guess which countries' leaders rely on Rubles!

Earlier this evening a fire broke out near the border checkpoint at #Nekhotiivka - inside #Russia's territory.
The governor of #Belgorod Vyacheslav Gladkov obviously blamed #Ukraine shelling. He says one rocket hit a disused petrol (gas) station

Earlier I posted a video of forced conscription on the streets of #Luhansk.
Now another incident is published, this time even worse scenes from #Molodohvardiisk just 10-15km from the #Russia border.
I've stitched two videos together here, hence the skip.

Finally for today I've had a few people asking why I haven't mentioned the Sun's story of attempted assassination of Putin.
There are no real quotes, no evidence. That's why I ignored the story when I saw it on Telegram.
