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

Hello on Day 810 of the war in Europe.

#Ukraine, a democratic nation, desperate to keep it that way, remains under intense pressure from #Russia, an autocracy led by a despot and indicted war criminal.

All the news all day long in one handy thread. Read on..

#StandWithUkraine
Yesterday we only really had two stories, but they were big ones.

#Putin exiling & side-lining top names from the Kremlin.

And 25 years after the #Russia apartment bombings, 13 were killed in a new attack - but who did it?
Review the news here:

I have to start today's news with all-time record numbers of losses suffered by #Russia in the last 24 hours, according to #Ukraine's figures.

1,740 invaders eliminated on Sunday and for the first time, the projected date of reaching 500,000 victims is now before June. Image

Hello and welcome to Day 807 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine.

Each day documenting the news and war crimes committed by indicted war criminal Putin and his Moscow horde as the neo-imperialists try to steal more land and wipe out another culture.

Here's another daily thread...
As always, the quick link back to the starts of yesterday's thread for those who missed some, or all, of Thursday's developments.

And right at the end of the day we saw another oil target inside #Russia being hit by drones!
So confirmation of another attack on an oil refinery in #Russia, the second in 2 months at this partuicular site.

Pershiy Zavod is the largest refinery in the region - the main complex for the processing of commercial oil and gas condensate, and the capacity is 1.2m tons/yr

Day 803 of #Russia's full invasion continues. The war criminals are super confident, tossing away lives of the plebs and useful idiots from Asia, Africa + the Americas.

But #Ukraine fights hard for its existence and supplies filter through to the frontlines.
This is the daily🧵
Today is a holiday in most of the UK, so I allowed myself a later start (no school run!)

Coming up news of #Ukraine hitting a Rusdian boat...
But first the link to yesterday's thread, which turned out to be quite busy.

So straight to the seas around occupied #Crimea where the big news happened overnight.

One of #Russia's speedboats was taken out by #Ukraine, with its Intel releasing this video.

A Magura V5 naval drone was successful near Uzaka Bay in the west of the occupied territory.

Many across Europe celebrate a holiday today, the first day of May.

In normal times in #Ukraine it would be a big celebration, with Labour Day followed by Easter and Remembrance/Victory Day. But these are far from normal times. No respite from war. Welcome to the daily thread:
Tuesday saw #Russia's world bring more death to #Kharkiv and to #Odesa for the second time in two days - a video proving the sickening cluster bomb attack on the people the day before.

All yesterday's news can be found here if you missed anything:

Overnight #Ukraine's special services has launched another successful attack on #Russia's oil industry.

Drones attacked a refinery in #Ryazan.
The local governor admits drones attacked but makes no mention of hits to the plant.

And Thursday's daily🧵 starts with another large scale missile attack on #Ukraine.

The air raid warning has just been switched off, but a lot of damage has been done as allies, especially the U.S. fail the Ukrainian people.
If you need to catch up on the news from Day 777, just click and scroll here for all Wednesday's news:

#StandWithUkraine

#Russia has again targeted energy installations, with attacks in #Kyiv (photos) #Kharkiv #Lviv + #Zaporizhzhia.
