Welcome to Daily Thread #220
It's October, which means war has been waged on #Ukraine in 9 different months now by an increasingly desperate #Russia

If you missed anything y'day, take a look here:

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine

Late last night #Russia predictably used its veto in the @UN Security Council vote, proving again the UN is useless. Despite condemnation of Russia by the UN leader, the Kremlin can simply avoid punishment.

China, Brazil, India and Gabon abstained. The others voted in favour.
The near siege of #Lyman continues.
While #Russia tries to bring in reserves, there have been unverified reports and videos of its troops fleeing the cauldron.

During the night it seems #Ukraine has been striking #Kreminna, the Russians' escape/reinforcement route.

#StopRussia
Almost all regions of #Ukraine were under air raid warnings a few minutes ago, with explosions heard in #Odesa (#Odessa) and #Mykolaiv (#Nikolaev)

The Mayor of Mykolaiv says a residential building was hit. Seems an Iranian Kamikaze drone got through air defence, now a large fire
In #Odesa at least two loud bangs were heard. Some posts on chat sites and social media report more.

No confirmation yet whether the explosions were due to air defence or Russian missiles/drones hitting #Ukraine land.

#Odessa #SaveUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
Also reports of explosions in #Kramatorsk this morning.

Back to #Odesa and here's an alternative video - two separate explosions can clearly be heard in this CCTV footage.

#SaveUkraine #StopRussia #Odessa
There's now a video of the vandalism of #Russia's Consulate in #NewYork.

This happened just under 24 hours ago and I first reported it in yesterday's thread with photos only.

#StandWithUkraine #StopPutinNOW
#Mongolia has offered to issue residency permits to all those fleeing #Russia to avoid a military call-up.

Previously those crossing the border without a visa could only stay 30 days.

#MobilizationInRussia #StopRussia
Britain today points out what's been mentioned in these threads many times before. The use of air defence missiles to kill civilians.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
With Putin ordering #Russia's troops in #Lyman not to retreat the casualties get higher and higher with close combat fighting likely.

Tomorrow looks very likely to hit 60,000 wasted Russian lives, all dying for nothing.

#StandWithUkraine
#Ukraine's President gives as the #USA continues to #StandWithUkraine

For the good of the world, freedom and democracy, we must #StopRussia

More outrageous news from Europe's largest nuclear power plant.

#Russia has kidnapped/detained the Director of the #Zaporizhzhia plant which is located in Occupied #Enerhodar.

Here's the full statement from #Ukraine's Energy board:

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia
Earlier today #Ukraine's army reached the outskirts of #Lyman.

The yellow and blue flag was unveiled next to the city's "stele" or name-sign. But fierce fighting continues in the city itself.

#StandWithUkraine #SlavaUkraini
⚡️Graphic photos⚡️

A new atrocity is uncovered in eastern #Ukraine

Near recently liberated #Kupyansk, a convoy of cars was attacked a week ago. 7 families' cars were fired on by the retreating Russians. Twenty people were killed, including 10 children.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
#Ukraine's managed to liberate more villages near #Lyman.

Novoselivka, Shandryholovo and Stavky are clear of invaders according to Kyiv, but last night #Russia was saying it had regained ground inside #Stavky.
The balance of evidence points to Ukraine being correct.
Even the most rabid pro-Russian sites are now reporting The Kremlin's troops are retreating from #Lyman.

The firefight seems to be the attempt by #Russia to protect troops and maybe some equipment they try to preserve. It's likely they will move back as far as #Kreminna.
Footage now of #Russia's vehicles fleeing on the one route out of #Lyman

The "Return alive" group publishes aerial shots of some of an estimated 5,000 trapped Kremlin fighters hurrying away - #Ukraine has fire control and I understand is picking off many

facebook.com/watch/?v=11231…
As many as 13 explosions reported in occupied #Enerhodar (unverified).

Earlier today #Russia kidnapped the director of the Nuclear Power Plant in the town in #Zaporizhzhia oblast.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
Another strange video has been published, which I cannot verify.

A #Ukraine patriot says this is happening in Occupied #Zaporizhzhia region. #Russia seems to be burying things - no one knows what but some allege it must be chemical weapons.

#StopRussia #StandWithUkraine
I cannot post this video on Twitter as I'll likely get banned.

It's from @censor_net showing the scale of destruction of #Russia's forces on the roads in #Lyman

Corpses, armoured vehicles everywhere. This looks like a rout; a tactical disaster by #Putin

t.me/censor_net/175…
Explosions happening on occupied #Crimea at the big Russian air base at #Belbek.

#SlavaUkraini
There's also a short video posted on Telegram showing smoke from the scene of the exolosions at the #Belbek air field, #Crimea.

#CrimeaIsUkraine
#Russia says a plane caught fire and skidded off the runway at the #Belbek military airfield.

Yet on the first photo I posted looks a lot like explosions🤨

All according to plan 🤣
And now we have a video of the explosions at the #Belbek airfield.

If a plane just "skidded off the runway" I dread to think what it was carrying or what it hit.

Looks increasingly like a Ukraine strike
#Crimea #Ukraine
And this too is supposedly from #Belbek when "a Russian plane skidded off the runway" cough cough!

Still trying to work out what's going on here, but sure you'll enjoy watching!

#StandWithUkraine #Crimea
I guess this is good news, considering the environmental impact. But I hope it never flows again.

#StopRussia

Some important jobs are already being done by #Ukraine's fighters in liberated #Lyman.

Signs erected by #Russia being torn down.

#SlavaUkraini
Back to the explosions at the #Belbek airfield in Occupied #Crimea.

The Head of #Sevastopol says the fire is now out. And there does indeed seem to be a grainy video confirming a plane overshot the runway by a long way.

#StopRussia
A lot of theories sent to me about this. The most popular, and likely, is they are marine mines.

But why bury them in already dug trenches?
Some correspondents adamant they'll be covered with contaminated waste and then blown up when🇺🇦army approaches.

If ever you wonder if we are doing the right thing. If you know people who think "Russia can't be that bad" just let them read this

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine️

news.sky.com/story/released…
Earlier I posted a mysterious drone video showing what may have been #Russia burying marine mines in a field.

Is this #Ukraine hitting them, or another similar trench of buried explosives? Potentially before any harmful substance is placed on top?

This 57 year old became a mercenary for #Russia to kill in #Ukraine.

His T shirt says Strength (is) Truth.

The truth is Mikhail Shiyan is now strong fertiliser.

#StopRussiaNOW
As Day 220 draws to a close, we have ongoing battles in #Kreminna where #Russia's fleeing forces try to establish new defences, and in #Kherson region where #Ukraine is pushing forward.

Reality seems to be dawning on Russia, even the censored TV stations

Tuesday 19 November 2024.
I can't quite believe we reached 1,000 days.
#Ukraine is still free, refusing to buckle to the imperialist #Russia

I'm incredibly proud to have documented every single moment, no days off, no holiday, no sickness.

UkrainaOnline encapsulated 1000 days
If you like what I do, if you've never done it before, please consider buying me a coffee on this milestone day. It took a hell of a lot of work.

Thank you to my #TeamTim

Here's the link back to all Monday's news.
More heinous attacks. On its day of mourning, #Sumy was hit again just as the day ended, and #Odesa lost another ten residents.

Today is Day 999 of Europe's war

It's cold in the UK today. Imagine if you didn't have heat. Not just for one day, but maybe for most of the winter Now imagine it's 10 degrees colder

If you can do that you understand what people in #Ukraine feel, or fear.
Welcome to my daily🧵
Monday and Tuesday are days of mourning in #Sumy region after an horrific attack on an apartment block.

It was the last in a long line of murders of civilians by #Russia on Sunday.

I produced the longest thread for months (over 60 posts) - catch up here
Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.

An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.

Day 998 of #Russia's all out war, and Sunday 17 Nov is the day #Moscow's war criminals chose for the big missile attack on #Ukraine

It's such a difficult time for anyone associated with Ukraine. With the election of Musk/Trump, Putin's convinced terrorism will win.
Here's the🧵
Before I forget, here's the link for yesterday's thread. I know many of you like to catch up on what you've missed in #Ukraine and stories connected to the war.

#Ukraine's FM takes a swipe at #Germany's Chancellor Scholz while declaring this one of the largest air attacks.

From #Chernihiv in the north, to #Odesa in the south.
#Kharkiv in the east to #Lviv in the west. #Russia hits them all.

Hello and welcome to Day 996 of #Russia's barbaric war.

Putin's band of war criminals is throwing everything at #Ukraine's defenders for 2 months as the Kremlin is certain tRUmp will force negotiations and wants to be in the strongest position possible.

Here's the daily thread
#Russia is literally teetering on the edge of economic meltdown. If the west does not take this opportunity to ensure justice, protect borders and prosecute war criminals, historians will look back and shake their heads. They may also ask why do anything in the previous 3 years?
Anyway, let's get on with the stories of the day, although we start as ever with the link back to Thursday's thread.

It was a day which saw more problems for #Russia, more war crimes with a civilian shot dead on the street and a terrible attack on #Odesa

Very near 1000 days of war in Europe, but also we should remember that #Ukraine's allies were pretty happy to let the first invasion by #Russia in 2014 go unchecked.

Weakness, appeasement or shady deals for cash only store up and multiply problems.

Here my daily🧵on Day 995
First thing first, the link for the start of yesterday's thread.

Plenty of evidence of #Russia's pending economic collapse, especially masses of airlines. Plus rioting absconders in Russia and assassination of one of their war criminals. All in here⬇️

100% for air defence overnight

Even though it was quieter than in recent days, and air raid warnings were much shorter, #Russia still fired 59 kamikaze drones at #Ukraine

21 were shot down, 38 stopped by EW.
It seems #Belarus wasn't attacked this time by its friendly neighbour Image
