Here's the British Intel update for Sunday. Not surprisingly it's all about #Lyman.
Imagine being one of the those reservists mobilised last week, sent straight to the cauldron, sentenced to death by #Russia a week after your normal life was shattered by #Putin.
This is the home town of President @ZelenskyyUa and a kamikaze drone was used to target the lyceum in the city centre. Still no details from authorities about damage or casualties
We've raised £3,178 for #Ukraine's soldiers - just 11 days left of the appeal.
I know there are a lot of fundraisers but we can source discounted winter clothes and thanks to Polish/Ukrainian Michal and his team, free transport to Ukraine. Thanks💙💛
#Lyman has been completely cleared of #Russia's invaders.
#Ukraine's President made a special short video post on Telegram to inform the nation of the news about the town in #Donetsk region, which two days ago #Putin pledged would forever be Russia.
#Russia is today claiming this strike in #Dnipro three days ago killed "more than 35 employees of #Ukraine's Security Service, including foreign advisers"
It says in total more than 40 people are missing: #StopRussia
Another twist in the mystery of the buried sea mines!
You may remember yesterday the videos I posted showing the burial of what seems to have been mines.
Some feared #Russia could contaminate the soil and then explode the bombs. UA Online reckons it was just another 🇷🇺 fake!
I am interested by this propaganda from the Occupiers
"#Russia guarantees all people living on the territory of the LPR, DPR, Kherson & Zaporizhzhia regions the right to preserve and study their native language."
But that's Ukrainian. They shut all🇺🇦language schools in Russia!
Four mushroom pickers have died in #Chernihiv region in #Ukraine after their car hit a Russian mine.
There is a ban on entering forests for this reason, and sadly they paid with their lives.
Extraordinary claims of #Ukraine success... from a RUSSIAN blogger.
Here's a translation of reports Ukraine's forces broke through deep into Occupied territory in #Kherson region. Completely unconfirmed but look at the map - it could be a #Russia withdrawal to east of the river.
Another of #Russia's jets has been destroyed in #Donetsk region.
#Ukraine's armed forces released these photos of the Su-34, which they did not even know had crashed and was only discovered today in liberated #Lyman.
After freeing #Lyman, the #Ukraine army has pushed on all the way to #Kreminna where battles are ongoing.
#Russia withdrew to here, but are thought to be having trouble to defend a solid front having retreated in haste and being outnumbered and with inferior artillery.
Didn't #Russia say the war was to defeat Nazis in Kyiv?
Now an influential 🇷🇺channel says
"Either we will win on the territory of the former Ukraine, or we will have to win in Russia. Every fighter must understand this; he went to war so that the war would not come to his house"

Hello again. Day 1203 of Russia's genocidal war in Ukraine
Anyone with a brain slightly larger than that of a chihuahua knows it. Russian history and Putin's own words spelt it out, but peaceniks, Naziniks and idiotniks are still in denial
More proof coming up in🧵for Day 1203
Yesterday's thread lasted well over 24 hours, but nothing to be proud of.
I know I'm crazier than you, and thankfully you all have lives to live. So you will be needing the link to the start of yesterday's thread so you can catch up on what you missed..
Day 1201 of Europe's war.
But the pre-conflict hybrid war has already been waging worldwide for years. Hacking, election interference, sabotage - we're all targeted by Russia, even if we don't all realise it yet.
Ukraine can stop the war criminal with our help.
Welcome to the🧵
Maybe Sunday will bless Ukraine with a quiet day?
Saturday was another full-on journalistic stint, catching sleep when I could.
Kharkiv shattered overnight then a daytime attack on a kids' railway.
Operation Web 2.0 & a factory hit in Russia.
It's all ⬇️
1/2 Early this morning, just before the end of the previous thread I showed the Azot chemical plant in Tula region on fire.
Not long afterwards, Ukraine hit another facility, this time in Russia-controlled 🇺🇦
This is the Hydromash factory in Melitopol' in occupied Zaporizhzhia.
Day 1194 of Putin's war, though let's remember the initial invasion came 11 years ago.
Since February 2014, not once have western sanctions or military support come close to being enough to restore justice and defeat evil.
Welcome to THE daily 🇺🇦 thread for Sunday 1 June
A new day, a new season. Summer officially started, but nothing is likely to change just yet.
Y'day's thread had some great stories, but everything paled into insignificance when justy before midnight came news of a disaster in Russia's Bryansk region:
Another night of no sleep yet - dramatic action in Moscow.
Time to start another daily thread covering everything to do with Putin's disastrous 'operation' in Ukraine.
It's 5am in Russia and Ukraine, on Day 1190 of the war.
Let's begin...
I've still NEVER missed even one day since the start of Russia's full invasion.
But yesterday's thread ended up being one of the most lively. Another near 50-post story of the day, and if you like seeing "bavovna" in Russia, go right through to the end!
