So breaking news, #Kyiv under attack in the last few minutes

One missile has smashed into a road, reportedly killing people (unconfirmed)

People said to be trapped in cars in #Ukraine's capital

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine

#Kyiv has been calm for months.
That uneasy calm was shattered this morning when #Russia's missiles landed in the city centre.

#Ukraine #StopRussia

Working within Martial Law guidelines, here's a video from the centre of #Kyiv, the capital of #Ukraine.

Unconfirmed reports of victims.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

#Ukraine confirms "a number of civilians are dead and injured" in #Kyiv after the missile attack by #Russia

#RussiaIsATerroristState

Not just #Kyiv under attack. Missiles in many cities of #Ukraine .

This young woman was in Kyiv when #Russia hit

#Russia has today attacked civilian targets in #Kyiv #Lviv #Dnipro #Zaporizhzhia #Mykolaiv #Khmelnytskyi and other cities of Ukraine.

This is how it sounded in Dnipro

#SaveUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState

In #Kyiv a children's playground almost disappeared in the crater left by a missile.

#PutinIsaWarCriminal #StopRussia

Video from a little earlier in central #Kyiv. This is not far from the President's house.

#UkraineUnderAttaсk #RussiaisATerroistState

In #Dnipro a bus station was hit in rush hour

It's already known 8 civilians and 24 more wounded in the missile attack on the central Shevchenkivskyi district of #Kyiv.

Meanwhile a new video published from #Dnipro

#RussiaIsATerroristState #PutinIsaWarCriminal

I'm hearing #IvanoFrankivsk also hit with missiles in the country-wide war crimes committed by #Russia in #Ukraine today.

#Kremenchug #KryvyiRih #Poltava #Rivne #Ternopil also suffering.
Many of the attacks were committed by kamikaze drones from #Belarus.

#Kharkiv has lost all power after attacks there. Many other towns and cities say the same.

In #Lviv a big explosion recently. This the rocket thought to have hit the western city near the Polish border.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState #PutinIsaWarCriminal

In #Ukraine people help each other and those less fortunate than themselves after the murderous rush hour attack on the country.

This is #Kyiv

#RussiaIsATerroristState

#RussiaOnFire
40km. from #Yaroslavl , a school and pre-school nearby were evacuated.

Potential sabotage.

Fire still burning at the Thermal power plant in #KryvyiRih (RU: #KrivoyRog)

Just another act of terrorism from the terrorist state that is #Putin's #Russia.

All this just makes all of #Ukraine more determined to succeed and rid the world of this evil menace.
#StandWithUkraine

Another air raid warning active in #Kyiv right now

#RussiaIsATerroristState #PutinIsaWarCriminal

A shot while ago the Mayor of #Kyiv, Vitaliy Klichko (Klitschko) made a statement from the city centre (with English subtitles).

The relatively new bridge, affectionately bearing his name, is one of the objects damaged in #Russia's deliberate targeting of civilians
#SaveUkraine

Terrorists in #Moscow cynically declare they achieved goals with civilian missile strikes in #Ukraine

They "inflicted a massive strike with high-precision, long-range weapons on objects of the military management, communication & energy systems of Ukraine."

These look military?

#Ukraine is asking citizens to reduce power usage after the missile strikes caused major problems with keeping supplies connected.

Lights in #Kyiv will be temporarily turned off, but the metro is already running again.

Parts of many towns remain without power.
#StopRussia

A family has died in shelling of #Sloviansk in #Donetsk oblast.

At least four people died in the attack and 2 more were injured.

6 buildings were destroyed.
One of those hospitalised is a 12 year old boy.

Military target? No, pure terrorism
#WarCrimes #RussiaIsATerroristState

A reminder to anyone posting about #Ukraine, particularly journalists.

Please do NOT say "indiscriminate" strikes by #Russia. That's just wrong.
These are targeted, very discriminate, strikes by a Terrorist State.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia #WarCrimes

#Moldova says three of #Russia's missiles violated its airspace. "This is a threat to civilian aircraft" according to the government.

#Lviv is almost entirely without power after 15 missiles landed in the city during #Russia's terrorist attacks.

#Kharkiv has managed to restore electricity to most regions in the last hour.

#SaveUkraine #StopRussia

Photos from #Lviv where a substation was hit, causing a city-wide power outage.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopPutin #PutinIsaWarCriminal

A building in the town of #Tyotkino near #Russia's border with #Ukraine was hit by shells today.

I cannot verify this, but some are claiming a Russian missile launcher there was destroyed.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussiaNOW #Kursk

Reports in #Crimea of an incident in #Dzhankoy.

Unverified, but some said there sounded like an explosion at a military camp there.

Nothing further posted about this since, but keeping tabs on it.

#StandWithUkraine

Very, very disappointed with @damart_uk for not supporting our campaign for winter clothing for #Ukraine's troops.

As a teen I used to work for them, would've been a great story but they ignored my email and then with the follow up phone call said they were unable to help.

But thanks to Tony who made a massive gift to our fundraiser, which has taken us over £5,000 - great news!

See my pinned tweet if you can help #Ukraine's soldiers take on the terrorists of #Russia.

Fits with what I'm hearing too.

This forces #Ukraine to have more troops in the north instead of pushing south.

Cannot help feeling how many thousands of lives and homes have been ruined by the west's refusal to do the correct thing and supply adequate air defence to #Ukraine.

Even if too many are scared of 'provoking' Putin, air defence is, guess what, purely defensive!
Do it NOW!

Nice piece here by my friend Dom!

Anyone like conspiracy theories?

Did you know a #Moscow judge died on the #KerchBridge when it was hit by the explosion at the weekend.

Wonder if he upset anyone?
