Welcome to Thursday's daily thread on #Russia's war.
It's Day 211 of non stop shelling and killing.
#Ukraine needs your help, if you can spare anything, please consider donating to our Fundraiser as we're falling behind the target

Wednesday was remarkable.
From pathetic Putin's ramblings/partial mobilisation, to the street protests in #Russia, to the prisoner swap deal which saw all 5 Britons released, ending with Zelenskyy's focused and powerful, history-making speech at the #UN

Last night there were big queues at #Russia's southern border with #Georgia.
Presumably men trying to flee before they receive the dreaded call-up to fight in #Ukraine.
Yesterday there were reportedly long queues at the Finnish border and flight tickets selling out.

This is how many Russians spent a large part of the night.
This just one police station in #StPetersburg with around 50 arrested people kept here for hours, many all night. They were among thousands protesting against mobilisation in #Russia
At least they had a piano!

"It's vital for world security that we do not blink, that we are at least as brave as #Ukraine's army."
Forgive me for giving another outing to my essay following Putin's partial mobilisation, hope you agree and feel free to share.

Last night Joe Biden and Volodymyr Zelenskyy gave powerful speeches at the #UNGA
Soon it's the turn of Britain's new Prime Minister @trussliz, who will continue to keep the pressure on #Russia. But will she call #Russia a "Terrorist State"?

As I type it's known 1,455 people were arrested in 38 cities across #Russia as anger at the PARTIAL mobilisation spilled on to the streets.
Most arrests (621) in #StPetersburg
Imagine the scenes when #Putin tries to send more civilians to the war, later becoming "Cargo 200"

Russians also protested outside the country.
Activist Pavel Tikhomirov held a one-man picket against mobilisation and war in front of the Russian Consulate General in #NewYork.

More news coming from #Russia's other borders too..
This was on the south-eastern border with #Kazakhstan
Local news outfit ATEO says "there is a huge queue of cars. The vast majority with men of military age."

...and the border with #Finland
Some trying to escape #Russia are sleeping in their cars. The queue reported by Fontanka to be "several kilometres long"
All according to plan for Vova!

The first video from @cossackgundi after the five Britons were released in a prisoner exchange deal between #Russia and #Ukraine.
Aiden Aslin speaking here, and the others, were initially flown to #SaudiArabia which helped broker the deal.

Several explosions reported in #Mykolaiv / #Nikolaev this morning.
This blast, just after midnight, was caught on CCTV.

#Russia says this was washed up on the rocks of #Sevastopol in #Crimea.
It's an unmanned surface vehicle, which may have been a kamikaze mission. They say they blew it up.
That's unlikely, it is probable Russia intercepted it and had a good rummage around to learn more about it

Casualties are reported in #Zaporizhzhie after this explosion this morning.
Infrastructure has been hit.

Always difficult to verify claims on the basis of a couple of stories and photos.
But there are a few reports like this. A man claims after he was arrested at a protest in #Moscow last night, he was given draft papers to join the war on #Ukraine.

#RussiaOnFire, another potential sabotage.
This fire happened at the building housing the military enlistment office in #Lomonosov, about 30km west of the centre of #StPetersburg.
#Russia officials report this room had not been used for two years and no damage was done 🧐😏

Exiled mayor of #Melitopol reports an attack in the centre of the occupied town.
This is a translation of his original post. He's since updated to say 6 of #Russia's soldiers are dead or injured.

#Russia's exceptional intelligence forces - you know the ones @Bellingcat continually humiliate - have saved an oil and gas complex from #Ukraine saboteurs.
It's supposed to have happened in #Volgograd. Look at the evidence - oh there's just dodgy acting!

In the far east of #Russia reports that literally anyone is being served with call-ups, even those who don't fit the criteria for mobilisation.
#Buryatia has among the worst death rate in the war yet still has a high "quota" officials need to fulfill. So fresh meat heads to war

Update on the explosion in #Melitopol, a local news channel published this video of the market area.
#Ukraine says it's a false flag by #Russia to induce hatred prior to the sham referendum.
Initially thought 2 🇷🇺soldiers died, now no deaths, 6 injured

Another attack on civilians in the occupied area of #Ukraine, just hours before the sham and illegal referenda get underway
There is zero logic or benefit to 🇺🇦carrying out such attacks. This in #Donetsk, covered market area. 6 dead, 6 injured

Also in #Donetsk, something has been hit by the airport. That's a far more likely and legitimate target for #Ukraine, especially as troops have been advancing on the area for the last fortnight.

The mask slipped. Staggering #WarCrimes advice
#Wagner group shares this advice on how to torture + kill #Ukraine Prisoners of War.
Do not report their capture, interrogate, chop off finger, ears, shoot in the groin + liver.
Then sell information on the burial site for $2k-$5k

Voting paper for illegal referendum in the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia is revealed.
Minor surprise it's in Ukrainian and Russian. Crazy thing is to vote on a region when half of it including the rcapital are not under #Russia's control.
Anyway, we know the "results" already

Ukrainian have already been having fun with the illegal referendum forms.
