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.

It's Day 1274 of Ukraine's incredible defence of its people, land, culture + shielding many NATO states, next on Putin's hit-list from his long stated dream to reunite the USSR

Somehow Trump & his cults (I nearly misspelled that) seem intent on helping Putin.
Here's the daily🧵
Tuesday was another 50+ post thread, packed full of some more untold insights into Ukraine news and life, including the resurgence of Covid and a language 'foul' on the football field.

But politics and Russian atrocities are omnipresent.
Here's your link
Let me start with an unwanted shock for residents in Poltava, who were warned of a radiation threat this morning, I imagine sparking all sorts of horrific thoughts.

Thankfully, the governor says it was human error, Myrhorod should've had an air alert, not the radiation warning. Image

There's an angry reaction from a wide cross section of society to Trump's compliant acceptance of Putin doing just what he wanted on U.S. soil

Welcome to my🧵on Day 1270 of Russia's war. I've never missed a day, if you want to support my quest for truth
ko-fi.com/twmcltd
Yesterday proved to be about a 26 hour long thread, which even for me was crazy!

Ukraine had great success striking military targets, while eventually, Putin had great success manipulating Trump.

Here's the link if you're catching up:

It's distasteful seeing leaders pussy-foot around, scared to upset Trump's fragile ego

Zelenskyy's forced to be careful, but Ukraine's always been ready for the unconditional ceasefire Trump first demanded 5 months ago. So no surprise he's travelling to Washington on Monday

It's Alaska Day, or a couple of half-baked Alaskas meeting later as Russia hopes to carve up Ukraine, with Trump's approval.

That's much later on Day 1269 of Putin's war.
As I start this thread at around 02:30 GMT, 05:30 Ukraine, there is a big attack on Russia.
Let the🧵begin
In a rush to get to sleep, so let me waste no further time in giving the link to yesterday's thread.

Both X and BSky have been a bit crappy scrolling through threads. One thing you can do is click my profile and then "replies", click one + scroll up

So, as I posted a few minutes ago at the end of Thursday's thread, a big, successful attack on another oil refinery in Russia.

This time it's the Rosneft plant in the city of Syzran, in Saratov region.

Whoever said 7 days is a long time in politics was dead right.

An about turn from tough guy & threats to TACO queen & Putin's poodle. And the next 7 days is now set to bring another cosy meet between a felon and an indicted war criminal.

It's Day 1263 of THE Ukraine thread:
A later start to Saturday's thread because of a crazily late finish to the last🧵

Fewer than 20,000 views for the first time in weeks on such an important day🤨🤔

So much effort and so little impact some days 😢

President Zelenskyy's damning response to the TrumPutin plan came early in social media posts - the full subtitled video is next in my🧵

As I said last night when Trump announced details, Putin got EVERYTHING he wanted (again) & gave up nothing, not even secondary tariffsImage

Day 1261 - the White House thinks the war in Ukraine is coming to an end.

Especially as the Kremlin has this morning announced Putin and Trump will meet in the coming days.
But is the war criminal just duping the US Pres again and buying more time?

Follow me & today's thread:
Much of Wednesday was taken up with the politics surrounding US envoy Wirkoff's latest chummy chat with Putin.

But then it turned dark, literally as the sun went down, but Ukraine looks to have had the better of the drone exchanges.
Catch up here:

I think we should start with the latest from Moscow on the first of the meetings which most hope will end the war, but few realists believe.

The venue has been arranged - this is from one of Russia's state news agencies. Image

Sunday 3 August 2025. It's Day 1257.
T-7 days til Trump's self-imposed deadline for Russia expires.

But Putin's horde continue to hit civilian targets.
However Ukraine has been hitting military targets in greater number overnight.

Here's THE daily🧵. All the news All the time
Well Saturday proved to be a very newsworthy day with many attacks on both sides.

Here's the link to the start of Saturday's feed, click and scroll if you missed anything.

The big story since the last couple of hours of y'day's thread has been Ukraine's multiple successes in breaching Russia's air defence at military targets.

The Kremlin says it destroyed 93 drones, 60 over the Black Sea. There's no mention of how many they missed!
