Hello again, nice to see you here for Tuesday's daily thread on #Russia's illegal war against its peaceful neighbour.

Day 216 of #Ukraine's Resistance. Also the last day of "voting" in the sham (illegal) referenda in Occupied parts of Ukraine

All the news, events and analysis⬇️
If you missed anything yesterday, here's the start of Monday's thread. Scroll at your leisure!

The British Intelligence daily update is out and it covers Putin's immediate plans over the fixed "votes" in 4 of #Ukraine's partially occupied regions.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
The destruction of the airport at #KryvyiRih was the main overnight event (see end of yday's thread)

But 3 communities - Nikopol, Marhanets and Chervonohrihoriv were hit by almost 100 rockets.
No casualties have been recorded so far but officials are still inspecting damage.
Still insanely high losses for #Russia

All the first 5 categories here above the daily average.

#StopRussia #SlavaUkraini
#Russia has turned off gas supplies to Europe again.

The Kremlin claims the Nord Stream 1 pipeline can't be repaired because of sanctions.

What a coincidence, just as #Italy's political parties negotiate to form the new government. Putin desperate for pro Russian voices!
Following on from the previous tweet, mysterious things happening under the sea, discovered by Nordic countries.

#Russia just spent 5 million rubles on iodine tablets (used to help prevent radiation sickness)

Media say the transaction is made within 4 days showing urgency, but there are annual purchases of iodine, so may be a coincidence.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
#Russia has attacked the hotel and restaurant in #Zaporizhzhia's central park.

This is the second hit on this complex.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine
Something burns in occupied #Horlivka, north of #Donetsk.

#Gorlovka #Donbas #Ukraine #StopRussia
A councillor in #Tatarstan claims he was attacked while trying to highlight corruption in #Zelenodolsk.

Yevgeny Yefremov was staging a one-man picket with a poster when a masked man jumped on him snatched the poster and left him with a cut on his hand.

In #Russia's southern republics the police are taking extra precautions after yesterday's problems with the anti-mobilisation protests.

In #Nalchik the whole centre is cordoned off, while in #Makhachkala this lot are heading to the centre to prevent gatherings.

#StopRussia
We all know #Russia's army likes to loot, but perhaps the craziest theft has just been revealed following their retreat

In #Kharkiv region employees at 'Novaposhta' returned to work to discover the Occupiers stole the toilet!

Police investigate, but they have nothing to go on😂
🤣🤣🤣
#Russia knows no-one will believe anything to do with the referenda in #Ukraine. The Kremlin knows it's a purely propaganda exercise, so they invent figures that simply cannot be possible because they don't care and like to show that.

#SaveUkraine #StopRussia
In #Makhachkala metal detectors and 'filtration' before even being allowed in to the main square.
That's where the large crowd and trouble happened yesterday evening.

#Dagestan #Russia #MobilizationInRussia
Apologies for being offline for so long - I get urgent alerts when I'm in meetings, but thankfully nothing urgent to report.

#Ukraine says it's foiled attacks on #Odesa, #KryvyiRih and #Melitopol.
Kh-59 missiles fired by #Russia's fighter jets over the Black Sea were shot down.
Before the war @JoeBiden promised to end #NordStream if #Russia invaded #Ukraine.

This evening The EU parliament's Chair of the EU-US delegation, cryptically posts this:

An investigation in #Bulgaria reveals the country's previous government secretly plotted with #Putin to engineer a "potential suspension of transmission (of gas) through #Ukraine"

bird.bg/dans-potok-bor…
Parts of #Kharkiv are without power this evening after 4 rockets smashed in to the region.

Infrastructure was hit in the Kholodnohirsky district of the city. No casualties are reported.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
More gifts for #Ukraine...
#Germany confirms it will be giving a specially designed "Iris" air defence system to Zelenskyy's government, while the #USA is donating 16 NASAMS rocket launcher according to Ukrainian officials.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
It gets even more ridiculous

"According to the final results of the referendum in #Donetsk, 99.23% voted for union with #Russia, and the turnout was 97.51%"

Just stupid, pathetic, embarrassing. Get the #HIMARS loaded.
Elsewhere 98.42% in #Luhansk voted to join #Russia according to the fairytale.
But having killed or jailed anyone who didn't flee, and holding a referendum at gunpoint, that's almost believable to some. But 87% in #Kherson and 93% in #Zaporizhzhia? Just an insult to intelligence
Eagle eyed viewers have already pointed out many of the voting forms are blank - they couldn't even be bothered to fill in the forms they stuffed into the boxes to make it look real!

#FakeReferendum #RussiaIsATerroristState

Maybe I'm wrong. maybe you're wrong.
Maybe everyone really does want to be in #Russia...

Let's check in on a flight heading to Russia - I'm guessing all tickets were sold out long ago?
Maybe not!
#Poland tells any of its citizens still in #Russia to leave immediately.

Day 1238 of the all out war, but also 4,162 days since Putin launched his original invasion in Crimea.

It's Tuesday 15 July and the day after a somewhat deflating series of announcements by Donald Trump.

Let's begin THE daily thread..
All international main stream media are headlining Trump's U-turn on Ukraine.

And while they are correct, none has picked apart the announcements which are more like a left-branch than a 180 turn.

Here's where to find yesterday's news:

1/3
So Trump has, crucially, for the first time, allowed US weapons to go to Ukraine, so it is a step forward. And while no specifics, let's hope the best long-range weapons are to be given.

But no confirmation about the U.S. using Russia's frozen assets in favour of Ukraine.

Hello on Day 1237 of Russia's 3-day 'special operation' to take Kyiv.

Could this be the day we look back on as the turning point in Ukraine maintaining a united, free, democratic country?

We'll find out in today's thread, so let's begin..
Before we get into today's news and a recap of overnight happenings, here's the traditional link back to the start of the previous day's thread.

Many people out and about on Sundays, so here's your chance to catch up. Click and scroll, then come back!

So Russia is currently 1233 days behind schedule in its expectation to control Kyiv.

I've documented it here every day. Saturday had some more blatant Russian war crimes, starting with more death and destruction.
If you were away from screens, catch up⬇️
Starting with breaking news as Ukraine has announced it has killed the assassins of an Intel officer gunned down in broad daylight in Kyiv a few days ago.

Hello again and welcome to the weekend and another daily thread. All the important Ukraine news, fact-checked, every single day (never missed one yet).

It's Day 1235 and signs that Russia is becoming increasingly desperate. Let's begin:
Don't know about you, but I was up most of the night documenting another huge Russian attack.

If you missed it, you can catch up on that, as well as the rest of Friday's news by clicking here for the start of yesterday's thread:

23 missiles + almost 600 drones flew from Russia overnight, trying to destroy Ukraine's infrastructure, culture & people.

Air defence did well, shooting down 25 of 26 Kh-101 cruise missiles.
Of 597 attack UAVs, 319 were shot down, another 258 stopped via EW, or decoy drones. Image

Day 1233 of a war that's the biggest threat to the future stability of the lives of every person reading this.

The root cause is extremist, imperialist and anti-democratic forces being allowed to wage war unchecked. Ukraine in the firing line today, but who's next? Here's the🧵
Another very difficult night for Ukraine, especially Kyiv, with more deaths now confirmed in the capital.

It was a second successive very long and loud night for many. To bring yourself up to date on all yesterday's news, click the link:

First breaking news this morning from Kyiv, where a man has been shot dead in the Holosiivskyi district of the capital.

It's now been confirmed that the victim is a colonel of the Security Service of Ukraine.
The gunman used fired from a gun with a silencer and fled in a SUV. Image

A very bright and warm good morning to you, on Day 1231 of Russia's war of choice

Putin's choice to invade a sovereign, peaceful neighbour, to ruin the economy, to send hundreds of thousands of his countrymen to die

Is the tide about to turn? Here's THE daily thread on Ukraine
Well 2 days ago I was optimistic, and today that optimism is borne out.

But first, let's backtrack to yesterday, and in among the forehands and backhands, I still managed to produce a good thread with a Pimms or two🎾

An awful lot of people criticised me (well, I picked up a lot of bots and Kremlin stooges too) for saying that the Donald would backtrack.

But I read the runes and I was correct. Trump has unequivocally promised more weapons for Ukraine.
