It's Monday and I hope it's the start of a good week for you.

This is the daily thread number 215 with all the news from #Russia's war on #Ukraine

Now anyone who gives over £200 will receive a personal message of thanks from🇺🇦 soldiers on the frontline.

crowdfunder.co.uk/p/save-ukraine…
Just to clarify, if you have already made a pledge, you are still eligible. So if you gave £100, we need £101 more, or if you donated £200, just an extra £1 will do it, but feel free to give more if you can afford it.

Help #Ukraine defend itself and defend democracy!
If you missed anything on Sunday, here's the start of yesterday's thread.

I was on the road most of yesterday and posted a lot in the evening.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine

So we've had non-military personnel, footballers, disabled men and many, many more drafted in the #mobilisation in #Russia.

Also many reports of just one day's training before being sent to the frontline in #Ukraine. This is surely a suicidal gamble by #Putin? Time's almost up.
One resident of #Odesa reports air defence is working well on the south coast, with many (presumably Iranian) drones buzzing the city.

#Odessa #StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
It looks as though #Russia has hit an ammunition cache in #Odesa region. There are multiple explosions occurring in #Zatoka, south of the city of #Odessa.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
There is an eerie glow south of #Odesa after what looks to have been a direct hit on #Ukraine weapons dump in the region.

Drones have been shot down, but either a missile of a kamikaze drone has found its target in #Zatoka

#StopRussia
There is a big and historic Jewish population in #Odesa.

Why does #Israel still refuse to help the Jewish President or the people of #Ukraine, effectively backing #Putin's Nazi actions?

Britain's MoD seems to think #Russia plays by the rules.

We've already had reports of one day's training and some unsubstantiated stories of zero training before being sent to Ukraine. And contrary to what is written here, not all call ups are to previous military personnel.
More enormous battlefield losses for #Russia reported today.

If these figures are accurate it means the Russians have managed to lose almost 2,300 tanks. That's almost 50% of the number of tanks in the entire EU.
Another military enlistment office is torched in #Russia

This is becoming a real problem now as the civil disobedience continues.

The latest attack happened in Uryupinsk, #Volgograd.

#StopPutin #StopRussiaNOW
Thanks to Michael Bruk's Law Office with a donation of £250 to take our fundraiser to 25% of target

£2,500 now banked. Mr Bruk will get a personal message from the frontline when goods are delivered.

If you find a spare tenner today, please see the pinned tweet!
#SaveUkraine
Wow. Even more serious for the Kremlin now... (Unverified video)

A man has reportedly shot the Head of the Conscription Commission in Ust-Ilimsk in the #Irkutsk region.

He was wounded. A 25 year old man has been arrested.

#Russia #StopPutin #StandWithUkraine
Protests should be underway in #Dagestan which saw the biggest demonstrations in all of #Russia yesterday.

But police have been blocking roads in #Makhachkala and also #Khasavyurt to stop gatherings.

Could get ugly

#StopRussia #CannonFodder #StandWithUkraine
Thank you "F" (anonymously pledged £100) & Tony (2nd donation in the 2nd week of our fundraising effort for #Ukraine's troops)

Dyakuyu, Spasibo, Dziękuję, Tack,Tak, Danke, Merci, Grazie, Gracias, Obrigada, Děkuji, ありがとう, efcharistó, Teşekkürler
I can't say thank you enough!
Looks like the police in #Russia's southern Republic of #Dagestan have done enough to stop crowds gathering for the scheduled protest.

Yesterday the Kremlin was embarrassed by the large protests there. The mainly Islamic regions have flirted with separatism at various times.
Plenty of small explosions in #Donetsk region today, from before first light.

This happened in the city itself in the last half hour.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
A 15 year old girl has died in this attack in #Kharkiv oblast.

The town of #Pervomaiskyi was hit by missiles this lunchtime.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopPutin
#Dagestan
Anti-mobilisation protesters made it to the centre of #Khasavyurt

#StopPutin
#Dagestan
Also scuffles break out in the regional capital of #Makhachkala after protesters manage to get through the police ring into the central square.

#StopPutin #MobilizationInRussia
Also in another southern Republic, quite a crowd reached #Nartkala.
That's a city in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic (#KBR)

#MobilizationInRussia #mobilisation
The capital of #KBR is the city of #Nalchik

Some show of support there too for the protests against #mobilisation in #Russia

#MobilizationInRussia #StopPutin
Those detained yesterday in #Makhachkala were taken to a police station, beaten and denied even water, according to Civil Rights group ovd.news

#Dagestan #MobilizationInRussia
#Russia's thugs in uniform are using tear gas on protesters in #Makhachkala in #Dagestan now.

#StopRussia #StopPutin #MobilizationInRussia
Of course - didn't take long for #Russia to blame the west for trouble in #Dagestan.

Regional Head Sergei Melikhov says the anti-mobilisation protests "were prepared & controlled, including from abroad. They are trying to aggravate the situation" then mentions foreign sponsors🤡
There were rumours the border between #Russia and #Georgia would be closed. That's not happened yet.

Some say Russians are putting roadblocks to stop men of military age leaving. Others say you're allowed to cross the border if not in a vehicle, so look at the crowds now.
Reports now that the FSB has detained the Consulate General of #Japan in #Vladivostok.

Motoka Tatsunori has been declared persona non grata by #Russia after allegations he had gained restricted information.
I cannot verify this but it is very powerful if this is not an old card.

A #Chechen rips up his military I.D., presumably in protest at the #mobilisation and the police response in the southern republics.

#MobilizationInRussia #StopPutin
Rumours on social media that mobilisation has been suspended in #Dagestan.

Personally I doubt it, just an hour after the Governor pledged it was definitely continuing. But it could well be FSB disinfo spread to stop the protests.

#Russia #StopPutin
#Putin's goons quite happy to manhandle Muslim women in #Makhachkala too.

In this video is 22 year old Amina Magomedova. She is now missing. All police departments in the #Dagestan capital deny holding her.

#MobilizationInRussia #StopPutinNOW #StandWithUkrine
#Russia has hit the #Ukraine held city of #Sloviansk in #Donetsk oblast.

This is a residential building. No details on injuries yet.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
#Dagestan - this is allegedly the document cancelling #mobilisation in the state in southern #Russia.

Unverified - and even a real document means nothing in the world of Putin as we all know by now.

thx @CarolynnePries1

Occupied #Horlivka (RU: #Gorlovka) in #Donetsk was shelled again today. But this time #Ukraine is not saying it carried out the bombing.

#StopRussia
#Russia now proudly releases video of its interrogation of #Japan's Consul in #Vladivostok.

He's accused of paying to receive sensitive information about the impact of sanctions on the Russian economy.

How many protocols has Russia broken here?

A mother screams trying to protect her son from the state thugs in #Dagestan. Also notice how many plain clothes guys are happy to join in kicking the young man in the centre of #Makhachkala.

Unbelievably he somehow escapes (for now)
#MobilizationInRussia #Russia
One of #Ukraine's frontline soldiers posted this video showing how much ammunition #Russia left behind in their haste to get out of #Kharkiv.

This will now be used against them!

#SlavaUkraini #StandWithUkraine
Local media report 90 arrests in #Dagestan today in the two cities of #Makhachkala and #Khasavyurt.

27 of those detained are children.

#MobilizationInRussia #StopPutin
When "voting" ends tomorrow in the sham referenda, #Russia will publish stupid totals for both turnout & "yes" to joining the Terrorist State

Remember:
1) So many fled
2) Most avoid voting
3) This is the reality of feeling; 6 months ago in #Melitopol

More scenes from #Dagestan of recent protests against #mobilisation by local women angered at seeing their sons/husbands sent to war for Putin and his fellow bandits in #Moscow

Three Iranian kamikaze drones have been shot down by #Ukraine's air defence in and around #Odesa this evening.

Here's one of #Russia's new weapons getting destroyed:

#SlavaUkraini #StopRussia #Odessa
#Russia has hit the and destroyed the airport at #KryvyiRih tonight

Head of #Dnepropetrovsk region, Valentin Reznichenko, confirms the airfield and infrastructure was struck with X-59 missiles. Further use of the airport is impossible he says.

#KrivoyRog #StopRussia
#Ukraine will be afraid... very afraid.

More state of the art equipment is chugging its way to the frontline. I'm sure the new conscripts will be very impressed when they see their new armoured vehicles!

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

Hello on Thursday morning, 16 October 2025.

Russia is now going all out to make life unliveable for Ukraine's citizens, destroying all energy and heat infrastructure it can.

While Ukraine hits energy targets too, it's almost all to hit Russia's exports/finances.

Here's the🧵
Day 1331 is well underway: I hope we can penetrate the algorithm and get people to actually see today's🧵

Yesterday, views for the 1st page is at 16k, about half what it should be. Please quote tweet or repost various posts during the day

Catch up here:
Last night I wrote of a possible hit on another refinery.

In the last couple of minutes, Ukraine has confirmed the strike in Saratov, which they say directly supports Russia's army.

It's refining capacity is almost 5m tons.
