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

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.

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.

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.

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.

This is the start of THE daily thread covering all things Ukraine.

Reliable, accurate information for 1124 days as Russia and its willing accomplices (Iran, North Korea and MAGA-land) try to destroy Ukraine, its culture and its democracy to make it a vassal state.

Here's the🧵
Yesterday started with shocking lies and propaganda from the White House and ended with another massive attack by Russia, knowing tRUmp and co don't mind at all.

Find all the details by clicking and scrolling here⬇️

Worryingly, Russia achieved a 17% hit rate from its overnight drone attack with 25 of 147 getting through Ukraine's air defence.

97 attack UAVs were taken down and 25 more were decoys.

Kyiv came under fire most during the night.

The war Russia inflicted on Ukraine enters Day 1120

Ukraine, a country which never invaded another, never killed anyone abroad; a fully democratic nation where only one President has ever won a second term in office.

Here's THE daily thread for Wednesday, with all the news.
Yesterday was all about the ritual humiliation of tRUmp, dished out by Putin, and the US president's brain being too rusty to realise.

I also indulged in a long sub-thread on my fears about what's happening in Washington DC.
Catch up here:

It's official. tRUmp's supposed skill at making a deal is absolutely RANK

Russia
Afghanistan
NK (North Korea)

#TraitorTrump promised a deal with his mate in NK, got nothing.
He handed the Taliban everything, got nothing.
Now, ending the war in 24 hours turned into humiliationImage

Tuesday 18 March is Day 1119 of the war in Europe

Putin, the aggressor, the war criminal, presiding over countless heinous crimes, executions, kidnapping of children, is about to be given a pass by Donald J Trump.
The despot and the wannabe talk today.

This is THE daily thread
Yesterday saw an explosive end to a day which started with mystery surrounding a Ukraine hit in Russia, and moved through the thread with some harrowing and shocking tales and scenes from Kherson.

Catch up here! #SlavaUkraïni

During the night 7% of Russia's drones defeated air defence, according to Ukraine's figures.

Kyiv says there were 64 simulator drones which fell harmlessly - I think is a record, but cannot be sure.

Another 63 were shot down, with 10 of 137 attack UAVs reaching targets. Image

Welcome to my daily thread, covering all things #Ukraine every single day since even before the first day of Russia's full invasion.

This is Day 1110 of Putin's long promised land grab - he's also pledged to reunite the rest of the USSR.

More atrocities overnight, let's begin:
For those loving people who urge me to get more sleep, you will be pleased to know there was no alarm this morning; I am refreshed and ready to tackle JD TRussia again.

A busy Friday ended with news of the awful attack in free Donetsk, catch up here:

1/2
 Coming up news of a significant new oil strike in Russia. While Ukraine sticks to military targets, Putin's horde targets civilians.

#Dobropillya is a small place, but this heinous attack may go down as one of the worst of the war.

A double tap attack & cluster munitions

Today sees the completion of 3 years of full scale war unleashed by #Russia on #Ukraine.

As signs point to an end to this war relatively soon, the ONLY question which should be asked is: are you happy to reward war-criminal terrorists with land?

Here's THE daily thread:
It's Day 1096 of #Russia 's war.

If you missed anything yesterday, catch up on Saturday's news here:

1/2
 The #UK is in full focus today.
As @Keir_Starmer prepares to fly to Washington, new sanctions will be unveiled tomorrow.

Foreign Sec @DavidLammy says it will be "the largest package of sanctions against #Russia since the early days of the war eroding its military machine."

Day 1083 of the war in Europe and the 1083rd of my daily threads.

Three years ago we knew #Ukraine wouldn't go down without a fight. Now, for the first time in over a year there's genuine reason for #Russia to be worried about the outcome.
Plenty to learn and from in Sunday's thread.
In #Russia, ships crashing and exploding, faking capture of a key town in #Ukraine and late at night drones attacking again.

On the other hand, Moscow attacks civilians. Take a look at what you missed:

100% record in air defence overnight, according to #Ukraine.

Of 83 attack drones fired by #Russia, 61 were shot down by #Ukraine with the other 22 decoys.

I did report a fire in #Sumy last night, but that and damage in #Kharkiv #Poltava + #Kirovohrad were from falling debris. Image
