Day 228 of #Putin's war.
It's already another bloody and murderous day in #Russia's war on its peaceful neighbour.

#Ukraine stands strong though.

Here's the daily thread.
Check through yesterday's news right here⬇️

Seventeen people murdered this morning as #Russia continues its merciless assault on #Zaporizhzhia

Numerous private houses and apartment blocks were damaged, over a hundred injured with 49 in hospital.

12 missiles hit mostly civilian targets.

No doubt #RussiaIsATerroristState
British Defence Ministry update concentrates on the #Kerch Bridge attack on #Crimea

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Many reports say the death toll is 12 in #Zaporizhzhia but a little earlier Secretary of the City Council Anatoly Kurtev gave the total 17

Six children are among those hospitalised with wounds from the blasts.

Just days ago 19 people were murdered by #Russia in similar attacks.
Strong rumours that #Putin could be about to make major changes in yet another attempt to turn around #Russia's losses on the battlefield.

Defence Minister Sergey Shoigu may be replaced by Tula Gov. Aleksey Dyumin, while Chief of General Staff Valery Gerasimov may also be sacked
Death. Devastation. Destruction.
#Russia's calling cards.

It's been an almost non stop attack on #Zaporizhzhia this week.

#Ukraine's rescue services still look for more bodeis

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
Strong burning in occupied #HolaPrystan' this morning.
The town is only around 10km south of #Kherson city.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
A school in the Kalininsky district of #Donetsk has been hit by shelling.

Looks like targeted strikes but not with the most destructive rockets. Obviously at a weekend and early in the morning no one should be around - but #Russia's troops often use schools as military bases.
One place where #Russia has made a little ground is near #Bakhmut (RU: #Artemovsk).
Invaders have been on the eastern outskirts of the city for weeks without progress. But they're now moving in from the south too.
#Russia's Ministry of Transport has issued the following statement:

"The movement of freight and passenger trains on the #Crimea Bridge is on schedule, suburban traffic will be fully restored at 19.00"

#KerchBridge #CrimeaIsUkraine
#Luhansk Occupiers say #HIMARS rockets were fired at the temporary location of their Ministry of Emergency Situations near #Starobilsk

No internet there, so difficult to get the truth or photos. But on chat sites multiple people confirm an explosion at around 02:00
#StopRussia
A propagandist from #Russia's Army TV has posted a video clip of his drive over the #KerchBridge

Meanwhile all trains delayed from yesterday are now said to have crossed from #Crimea into Russian territory.

#CrimeaIsUkraine #CrimeaBridge
#Ukraine has confirmed which villages the army controls in #Luhansk oblast.

Governor Haidai names them as:
Novolyubivka, Nevske , Hrekivka, Novojehorivka, Nadiya, Andriivka and Stelmakhivka.

All are in the Svativskyi district, just a few km from the state border with #Donetsk
#England and #Ukraine have been drawn together in qualifying for the 2024 men's European Football Championships.

Both countries were placed in Group C at the draw in Frankfurt, along with #Italy, #NorthMacedonia and #Malta. Only the top two qualify.
A 40 year old man from #Russia wrote "Putin is a murderer" on the gate of the Russian embassy in Moldova.

He also threw a firecracker into its territory.
It actually happened Fri/Sat but I've only just seen it.

#StopPutinNow #StandWithUkraine
Another gesture of goodwill from #Russia to leave a working "Caterpillar" minelayer in full working order for the hosts.

Now f*** off back to Russia
#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

Here's a riddle. When is a TV tower fire not a fire?
Answer: when it's in #Moscow

Something that looks distinctly like a fire or at least sparks shooting from the TV tower in #Russia's capital. The Fire Dept attended and said there is no fire!

#StopRussia
When we talked about #Russia sending cannon fodder and cattle to the frontline, I didn't really think they'd transport the forcibly mobilised like cows.

#StopRussia #RussiaIsATerroristState
#Russia celebrating "suburban trains" crossing the damaged #CrimeanBridge for the first time since yesterday's explosion.

This departed #Kerch while a train from #Anapa went in the opposite side. However I can't see anyone on this train!

#StopRussia #CrimeaIsUkraine
Don't know about you, but I'm a bit disappointed this time the FSB's super quick solving of a complex case didn't involve a 12 year old girl from #Ukraine!

Occupied #Donetsk - a fire burns in the city - in Petrovsky district.
The "pops" seem regular wood burning rather than anything more suspicious.

A few minutes before, #Russia's forces launched missiles but one was shot down (or malfunctioned)
Maybe the two are linked?

Here's the missile launch by #Russia in Occupied #Donetsk.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopPutin
Rage🤬🤬🤬😰

A maniac from #Saratov in #Russia kept a tiger cub 'Aurora' locked up in total darkness.

Reportedly fed and watered only once a week, she's now blind and terrified.
Animal Rights activists have now rescued the poor creature.

#Russia is once again trying to destroy #Nikopol.

The town is in the south of #Dnipropetrovsk region, just over the water from occupied #Enerhodar where the nuclear power plant is.

#RussiaisATerroristState #StandWithUkraine
Reports circulating among pro-Russians that the invaders have hit a major railway hub in #Pavlograd in #Dnirpopetrovsk region. They also claim secondary explosives indicating perhaps hitting weapons or ammo.

I've searched. Locals say one explosion, and #Ukraine says air defence

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.
