Welcome to Wednesday's daily🧵covering all the news from #Russia's war of choice.

The Kremlin hopes to mobilise 1m "soldiers" to fight the losing battle. To defend their homeland, #Ukraine troops need winter gear. Please help us reach £10k target

crowdfunder.co.uk/p/save-ukraine…
Today is Day 217.
Yesterday saw the "results" of the fixed and illegal referenda, blank voting papers, stolen toilets, empty passenger jets heading into #Russia and much more.

Missed it? No problem - scroll though from here:
#StopRussia #SaveUkraine

One of the most important pieces of news came late last night and that is #Italy's confirmed commitment to #Ukraine despite the change of government.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState

A lovely thing to watch is this clip from the infamous #Russia 1 prime-time current affairs programme.
Chief Propagandist Solovyov panics after "being drafted"
Panel openly referring to "cannon fodder" and "meat grinder", suggest "worthless art" students should be sent instead!
The above video was a parody from @R82938886 😆

Today's figures from the meat grinder by the way: 400 more of #Russia's soldiers won't be returning home.

Other numbers generally lower - appears #Russia is digging in and waiting for reinforcements (fresh cannon fodder)
Very annoyed at some British broadcast media this morning announcing "four occupied regions of #Ukraine vote to join #RussianArmy

This is disgusting and irresponsible reporting.

The real residents were not asked, did not vote or were threatened at gunpoint.
#StopRussia
Let's check in and see how #MobilizationInRussia is going.

This is #Sevastopol in #Crimea.

#Ukraine's fighting machine will be quaking in their boots when Dad's Army limps over to the mainland!
#Ukraine still has momentum. #Russia struggling on various fronts.
That's the message from the UK today.

Widely believed Putin personally intervened to stop a retreat behind the Dnipro river in #Kherson - a catastrophe waiting to happen; it could happen very soon!
#SaveUkraine
#Russia's shells landed in #Hulyaipole in #Zaporizhzhia this morning.

Of course 98% of people here want Russian rule, why wouldn't you?

Three S-300 anti aircraft missiles hit roads and an historic building, no casualties reported

#StopRussia

Things remain tense on other nations' borders with #Russia too.

#Finland urges residents to inform about all suspicious people seen near frontier.

Meanwhile chaos at the Upper Lars crossing into #Georgia (unverified video); Russian army now arriving, possibly to block access.
Failing to support #Ukraine is giving the green light to this.

War crimes will be committed again and again, not only in #Ukraine, but in Putin's next target if he's allowed to get away with the inhuman actions of this conflict, which he started.

How do I know there will be more war crimes in a different part of world? History gives us the answer.

Chechnya was first in #Putin's reign of terror. Horrific tales of rape and torture are still coming to light from the 2008 war in #Georgia

President Vucic days #Serbia will NOT recognise the results of the pseudo referenda in #Ukraine.

Poor Vova, even his friends are putting one foot in the opposition camp now. Don't worry Putin, Syria is still with you!
Likely that #Ukraine has demolished a Russian HQ in occupied #Kherson.

This is the Kolos Hotel in #Oleshky - looks like the Occupiers checked in, but now they can never leave.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
(Unverified)

The border between #Russia and #Kazakhstan beginning to resemble a refugee camp.

#StopRussia
Former @Everton star Diniyar Bilyaletdinov has been issued with call up papers by #Russia's army.

📷Everton FC
#Ukraine has hit #Russia's TV and Radio broadcast facilities in #Luhansk region.

This is in the town of #Starobilsk

#LuhanskIsUkraine #Lugansk #StandWithUkraine
News in brief:

#Russia has called an emergency meeting of UNSC to be held Friday, over NordStream sabotage

#Iran's President to make very rare address to nation tonight as riots continue

#China's Xi Jinping makes first public appearance since rumours of a coup appeared.
A #Ukraine official has said they are negotiating with #Russia over the possible return of all Prisoners of War.
#EU President to "make Kremlin pay" for escalation in #Ukraine

8th round of sanctions on #Russia passed. Oil price cap + bans on:
* import of🇷🇺 products (-€7.5 bn)
* export to🇷🇺 aviation/electronic/chemical materials.
* EU citizens holding senior positions in🇷🇺 state companies.
I, indeed any seasoned Russia/Ukraine watcher, cannot stress this enough.

Do NOT appease dictators.
Do NOT show weakness.
Oh and Do NOT feed the trolls!

This Occupier from #Russia admits they usually stay in residential areas of #Ukraine, because it is "safe"

Sergei Zavdoveev, callsign "Frenchman", told a propaganda channel that if they enter the city, they are placed among civilians.
What says @amnesty?
💣Such a shame! I think a naughty Russian's been smoking again!

14 victims reported after explosions in #Belgorod region, just over the border inside #Russia

The Governor "detonation of ammunition occurred in the Valuysky urban district due to a human factor"

#StandWithUkraine
UPDATE just in from previous tweet about ammo explosions in #belgorod

A doctor at the Valuy District Hospital confirms “Today, around 4 pm, 14 civilians received various shrapnel wounds as a result of the detonation of ammunition"
All victims have moderate and mild injuries.
Somehow this tweet escaped the thread, so including now:

#Russia is attacking #Ukraine with missiles again.

Infrastructure has been hit in #KryvyiRih again - significant damage reported.

5 x Kh-59 were fired from Su-35 aircraft. Air defence took down 4 of the 5 missiles fired at #Dnipropetrovsk and #Zaporizhzhia regions

#StopRussia
UPDATE on strike on #KryvyiRih (RU: #KrivoyRog)

Governor Reznichenko confirms a 'grain processing enterprise' in the Kryvorizky district was hit - no casualties but big damage.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine
Yet another strike by #Ukraine near the #Antonivskyi bridge.

In addition, explosions in #NovaKakhovka tonight - unconfirmed reports that Russian bases have been hit in both.

Also in #Kherson oblast, a fire burns in #Brylyvka - it's a small town midway between Kherson + #Crimea
More explosions in #Dnipropetrovsk oblast.

Nothing further known right now..

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
1/2
 Two powerful blasts heard in #Dnipropetrovsk a few minutes ago.

The strikes came within a minute of each other.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
2/2
 Windows were shattered near the explosions.
A fire has started and the glow lights up the sky.

#MartialLaw prevents further details at this stage

#StandWithUkraine #SaveUkraine
Looks to be an even worse glow in #Zaporizhzhia - TPYXA reporting more missiles fired by #Russia there this evening.

#StopRussia #RussiansGoHome
Residents in #Zaporizhzhia region counted 8 explosions in the latest attack.
It's not yet known if any of these was air defence.

#SaveUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
Two more photos from #Dnipropetrovsk region after the missile attacks there tonight.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
Now footage of two CCTV videos back to back, replaying the moment of one of the big blasts to rock #Dnipropetrovsk tonight.

#StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState
A big fire in #Dnipropetrovsk at the site of one of the missile strikes by #Russia

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine #UkraineUnderAttack
It's loud in #Kramatorsk too.

Several big bangs, unclear if it's air defence or rockets landing in the #Ukraine held city near the frontline.

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.
