This is Thursday's thread with news, views, analysis on #Russia's unprovoked war in #Ukraine, updated throughout the day.

Day 204 starts with a recap of the main story which broke very late last night:
🇺🇦President Zelenskyy is ok despite a car crash

If you missed that, or just want a recap of Wednesday's news from #Ukraine and beyond, then just click here and scroll at your leisure!

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

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.

#StopRussia
New data show #Japan continues giving more & more money to #Russia

With tensions high over the Kuril Islands, Japan did not import any fuel from Moscow in June, but today's August's figures are known.
Although 20% down in volume on Aug 2021, it's still 54% higher in cash terms.
Britain's daily intelligence update concentrates on #Russia's "regrouping" as #Moscow terms it.

London confirms outright panic in some places with heavy losses in terms of hardware.

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
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.
Figures settling down on the daily statement of #Russia's losses.

The destruction of aircraft, tanks and other vehicles well above the mean in the last 24 hours.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
The team running #Ukraine's railways works quickly.

Already today the first train journey to recently liberated #Balakliia.
These people mostly refugees, able to return home for the first time in half a year.

#RussiansGoHome #SaveUkraine
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.

Drug dealer? Rapist? No problem, we'll do a test then enlist you

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.

The water subsides but the problems multiply for #KryvyiRih after #Russia launches another attack.

Head of the city, Oleksandr Vilkul says there is serious damage at "an industrial enterprise.2
No casualties reported.
#StandWithUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
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.

#StopRussiaNOW #SaveUkraine
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.

#StopRussia #StopPutin
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

📹TG mariupolnow
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!

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
Two explosions in #Melitopol in the last few minutes.

The news is confirmed by the exiled Mayor, citing his sources, saying emergency vehicles are rushing to the south of the Occupied town.

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
Fair play to the #Ukraine partisans who managed to do this in #Berdyansk.

They painted the coat of arms near the prosecutor's office in the Occupied town.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussiaNOW
Oops - #Russia injured its own propaganda merchants.

A "news" crew from 'TV Tsentr' overturned when Russian missiles landed in #Zaporizhzhia. Correspondent Nikita Vasiliev and the driver were both injured but survived.

meduza.io/news/2022/09/1…
A #Ukraine court has today sentenced a Commander in the so called "Luhansk" army to 14 years prison.

The man from Izmail, known as "Kryl" was found guilty in absentia in #Odesa.

The EU delegation visiting #Kyiv today was treated to fresh fruit from newly liberated parts of #Kherson oblast.

Kherson is one of the world's leading suppliers of melons and especially watermelons.
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.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #WarCrimes

news.sky.com/story/mass-bur…
More things landing iñ occupied #Kherson tonight.

This is in #Beryslav, while other explosions reported in #NovaKakhovka

#RussianGoHome
Watch the trailer for a new film about the war crimes in #Bucha.

It's through the eyes of volunteer Kostiantyn Kiastutisovych who managed to save 200 residents from their fate by evacuating from the occupied area north of #Kyiv.

#StandWithUkraine
😢 #StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
In #Kyiv there was a gathering to remember journalists who have died in the war.

Around 30 are known to have been killed in #Russia's unprovoked aggression.

📷Oleh Bahachuk
The Supreme Court of #Ukraine has once and for all banned the pro-Russian party "Opposition Platform for Life"

Medvedchuk's party's final appeal was rejected.
The Security Service of Ukraine has so far started 70 criminal investigations against members.

24tv.ua/partiyu-opzzh-…
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!

#Ukraine's government says it has informed @OSCE about the discovery of evidence of torture in the liberated parts of #Kharkiv.

The Prosecutor General's office says there are 33,000 cases of War Crimes now open.

ukrinform.ua/rubric-ato/357…
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

#StopRussiaNOW
#Luhansk

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.

#StopRussia
Explosions in #Melitopol'

Occupiers say their air defence is working. Locals are not convinced. So far results are inconclusive.

#SaveUkraine #RussiansGoHome
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.

Hello again, thanks for visiting my Ukraine thread on Day 1353

Views/likes are down on both sites I post on: possible war fatigue

It's exactly what Putin wants from the world - to wear us down so we accept a deal to stop the killing
This will embolden Putin & hasten war v NATO
Here's the link for Thursday's thread.
It was a day which saw Ukraine inflict a fair amount of damage on Russia's energy sector and the crisis is nearing for Putin as it cannot export oil.

The energy crisis for Ukraine is about people surviving winter:
I'll start with the battle for Pokrovsk, as DeepState updated the map 40 mins ago.

Zero change in the lines since yesterday.
That's excellent for Ukraine but I fear the cost.

Of course things constantly change in the grey zone but no breakthrough.
Situation today vs a week ago Image

Welcome to November, which becomes the 46th different month to see fighting in Ukraine

And yet Russia is nowhere near its aim of Kyiv in 3 days.
Indeed 1,344 days behind schedule as we start today's thread on Day 1347 of the full invasion

Please think about sending a KoFi💙💛
Friday saw a lot of damage in Russia, an attempted counter-attack in Pokrovsk, Trump blank Orbán, power cuts in Moscow and so much more.

Clicking here⬇️will take you to the start of yesterday's🧵. Scroll through, catch-up then remember to come back here
Ukraine claims to have damaged a key Russian oil pipeline at Ramenskoe in Moscow region.

Their video shows all 3 (gasoline, diesel, aviation) fuel lines of the 400km Koltsevoy pipeline blown up.

The first pic shows guards patrolling, the second shows the explosives attached..

Hello again, on Day 1346 of the war.
Russia's genocidal war, that's both the intent and the reality as Ukraine fights to keep not only democracy, independence and freedom but also to avoid its culture and language being eradicated.

This is THE daily thread. Happy Hallowe'en
Due to various different events, I am still awake & instead of adding to y'day's thread, I thought it best to start a new one, then get some sleep.

First, the link for Thursday's🧵which started with Russia's mass missile attack but ended with🇺🇦 attacking
A quick reminder the first serious blow struck by Ukraine's long range weapons, came in Oryol.

A power plant was struck, though Russia told its people it was only drone debris (again)

Russia will not stop until it's stopped.
The war ends the moment Russia leaves.
Russia lies repeatedly (we won't invade Ukraine, we didn't kill Litvinenko, didn't kill 300 on MH17, didn't use Novichok in the UK etc etc)

We MUST NOT trust Putin.

Day 1345. Here's my daily thread
It's proved a very difficult morning for Ukraine, especially in the west. Russia tried to ensure misery and destruction, hits everyone across Ukraine.

At dawn missiles rained down, the start of the overnight attack was covered at the end of yesterday's🧵
There has been another big attack on Ukraine's energy sector with DTEK saying thermal power plants in various regions were hit.

They say it's the 3rd massive attack on the company's TPPs in October.

Various missiles and drones were fired by Russia. Image

It's Day 1336 of Russia's full invasion, but that only started because the world didn't provide a deterrent almost 12 years ago when Putin first tested the west's response by invading Crimea

The west failed the test. Are we about to fail the biggest exam too?
It's Tim's daily🧵
There was a big drone attack on western Russia last night, with Rostov in particular feeling the heat

There was also plenty of heat again on Russia's largest gas facility, the Georgian 'government' doing Russia's fascist work, and an a tragedy in Kherson
Ukraine was subjected to 6 missiles and almost 100 attack drones overnight.

None of the 2 ballistics, or 4 S-300 missiles was shot down

Of 98 UAVs launched, 3 were still flying.
Of the remaining 95, just 58 were stopped = 61%

Russia's 37 drones and 6 missiles hit 10 locations Image

An explosive start to Day 1334 of Russia's 10-day operation to erase Ukraine from the map.

Not quite #EATP for Putin.
An early start to Sunday's thread as we have news from central and eastern Russia.

All the news, all the time, every damn day. Here we go again!
So much happened yesterday and the fireworks really started in the last couple of hours.

Do yourself a favour and have a quick skim through what you missed from Saturday's news about Ukraine's battle for survival. Incredibly only 14,000 views😳🫣

Two major hits by Ukraine this morning, way, way back, deep into Russia.

Those with me a few minutes ago will already know some of the details but we have a few more sights to show you, starting in Orenburg.

Here, locals say a gas plant has been hit by drones. Image
