The criticism from some about #Russia's war effort is very much controlled and serves a purpose.
For a start everything Kadyrov does is for Putin - his father was a traitor who switched sides in the Chechen wars. #StopRussia
The big news though is events in occupied #Crimea.
During the night, on the bridge linking Crimea to #Russia, this happened:
#Russia says one of the lorry tankers crossing the bridge exploded. It was carrying fuel and they say it is a terrorist act.
So they either accept #Ukraine is hitting them hard or they admit internal dissent.
Here's how the #Crimea bridge looked after the explosion
The owner of the truck that is thought to have been responsible for the #Crimea bridge attack has recorded a video message saying he was abroad, but his uncle used the lorry to deliver orders.
It seems an IED on the lorry was timed to ignite fuel being transported by train.
It's Saturday. Always football fans in Britain eager to try out new songs!
The town of Grayvoron was hit. Two houses and a farm reportedly damaged but no injuries.
Today midway between #Mariupol' and #Donetsk it looks as though someone was smoking again!
At Karan' station in the small village of Andriivka, multiple explosions were witnessed, looking very much like one of the Occupiers' ammo stores giving up its gifts.
A train has run across the #Kerch bridge; #Russia says it's started selling tickets again.
Personally I think it's propaganda. I doubt they'll be running for a few days & probably not carrying military equipment to #Crimea for a while
Planet showed before/after satellite photos
Tonight there are reports that #Germany has delivered the promised IRIS-T air defence system and other equipment to #Ukraine
It's believed around 100 tanks originally from #Greece + #Slovakia have also been handed over.
It's Friday! The weekend approaches.
It's also the 814th day of #Russia trying to destroy #Ukraine, its language, culture and people, and over 10 years since the first invasion.

No coffees for 2 days - please help if you can.
Thursday was another busy one.
A day which saw Putin humiliated, #Ukraine attack #Crimea (again) and a load of other stories and videos.
Missed any of it? Just click here and scroll through the day's news:
#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:
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.
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.
