A new week in #Russia's deadly war on #Ukraine and this morning explosions have returned to the capital #Kyiv two days after the #Kerch bridge from #Crimea was hit.

This is Daily thread number 229. All the news in one place, and here's the link for y'day
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.

#StopRussia

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.

#StopRussia #PutinIsaWarCriminal

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!
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?

The terror continues from #Russia tonight.

But before the details on that, as usual a quick link to the start of yesterday's thread for those catching up on news from #Ukraine.

#Zaporizhzhia was subjected to a new wave of rocket attacks in the city.

Rescue workers are already at the scene, there are reports of casualties. #Ukraine has asked not to publish photos yet, but this CCTV gives you an idea of the power of the incoming #Russia|n missiles

Tuesday 11 October 2022. Day 230 of this brutal, senseless and illegal war.

#Russia has no tactic, and no defence, except terrorism. #Ukraine's spirit is indomitable.
All the news here in one🧵

Yesterday's stories in this link⬇️
The Head of Britain's spy base, GCHQ will today say #Russia is running out of weapons and #Ukraine is "turning the tide".

Sir Jeremy Fleming's speech in London will accuse Putin of flawed decision making. “The use of prisoners..and mobilisation, speaks of a desperate situation."
After launching almost 100 missiles and drones on #Ukraine on Monday, there's been an almost country-wide air raid warning already in the early hours of Tuesday.

It comes hours after a phone call in which Joe Biden promised to give Pres Zelenskyy air defence equipment.

Just 6 days remain to help our #Ukraine fundraiser.

If you need a recap on Friday's news and events, here's the start of the thread:

#RussiansGoHome #SlavaUkraini

An important point made by the British MOD today.

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.

Finally, here is the thread for Day 226 of #Russia's illegal war on #Ukraine.

Apologies for the last start, so much going on, chatting to people in Ukraine, planning for the fundraiser and tennis work too!

To check yesterday's news, scroll here⬇️

More criticism of #Russia's war effort and lack of training/discipline was highlighted earlier today by the British daily update:

#StandWithUkraine #StopPutin
Following Boxing's Governing Body taking the incredulous decision to readmit fighters from #Russia and #Belarus, the sport could be heading for a split.

#Sweden outright refuses to attend any tournament featuring boxers from 🇷🇺or🇧🇾. The next event is in Montenegro next week!

This is the start of the daily news thread for Thursday 6 October 2022, with all things connected to #Russia's war in #Ukraine.

You'll find yesterday's thread here:
Sorry to keep pushing this, but only 8 days remaining in the fundraiser and not one pledge yesterday😥

Anyone donating over 200 GBP will get personalised thank you photo from #Ukraine's soldiers at the front.
Let's have a big push please.

crowdfunder.co.uk/p/save-ukraine…
#USA, #UK + #EU give a lot to #Ukraine's war effort, but the biggest donator to the 🇺🇦 army may well be #Russia (seriously)

"We've got so many trophies we don't know what to do with them."
