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.
It looks like all 854 miners who were trapped underground during the mass missile attack yesterday, have been rescued safely.

The workers were in #KryvyiRih when power was cut, but emergency services said the last of them should be brought to the surface an hour ago.
Another of #Russia's richest people has renounced his citizenship because of #Putin's war.

Yuri Milner was in the top 15 of Forbes' Russian rich list and he's known as the richest Russian in Silicon Valley.

His website was updated to show he ceased being Russian in August.
#Russia admits missiles were fired at the #Antonivskyi bridge again yesterday evening.
They say two fell "in the area of the bridge" while "the rest were shot down by air defence"

I think that's code for the big bridge in #Kherson is damned again!
#RussiansGoHome #SaveUkraine
#Russia is preparing for a new round of Caliber missile strikes.

Odesa spokesman Serhiy Bratchuk says there are 6 enemy ships in the Black Sea, located off the coast of the temporarily occupied Crimea. Among them, 2 are rocket carriers. The total salvo can be 16 missiles."
#Dnipro city.
Pic 1 - after #Russia's evil
Pic 2 - after #Ukraine's spirit

Within 24 hours the road is repaired and open.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
The owner of #Shakhtar Donetsk has issued a strongly worded statement and attack on #Russia in the club's annual report.

Previously many suspected Rinat Akhmetov of being pro Russian. But #Ukraine's richest man has financially lost more than anyone in the war.

#SaveUkraine
Britain's Ministry of Defence concentrates on personnel problems for #Russia in its daily report.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
#Russia continues its attack on #Ukraine's power grid.

In #Vinnytsia, the Ladyzhynska Thermal Power Plant was attacked.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine
After today's attacks #Russia has now fired over 3,000 missiles on #Ukraine.

We should prepare for attacks on civilians to continue.

But stocks are running low. I expect more attempts to buy what can't be made. I wouldn't be surprised if Iran is manufacturing specifically for🇷🇺
It's been confirmed a 45 year man has died in the latest attacks on #Zaporizhzhia

He was killed at his place of work, a security guard here - he only got the job a week ago.

#Russia fired 12 rockets on the city.
#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
In #Lviv parts of the city are without water and electricity after more air strikes today.

One person has been hospitalised following #Russia's latest attack. There were 3 explosions in 2 energy facilities. All photos have been banned, supposedly to avoid Russia adjusting aim.
#Ukraine's defence says 3 missiles shot down over #Odesa, earlier 3 kamikaze drones were intercepted.

The Primorsky district is without power + water
The air raid warning for the city recently ended after over 5 hours.

A missile did land shortly after dawn in the #Odessa region
Communication also a problem in many cities, particularly #Lviv right now.

Word quickly spreads in which places you can get a mobile phone signal.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Many places hit in new wave of attacks by #Moscow's terrorists

#Volnogorsk, Dnipro region, missiles hit
#IvanoFrankivsk strikes on infrastructure(photo)
#Pavlograd - railway hit; train of #Ukraine military equipment targeted

#Vyshgorod, #Kyiv power surge sets fire to substation
Repeated explosions reported in Occupied #Melitopol'

No photos yet, but confirmed on chat sites in the town and by the exiled Mayor that #Ukraine has hit at, or near, the airport which #Russia's troops have made their de facto base.

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
Cruise missiles seem to have been launched today by #Russia from both the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea.

I understand #Germany's long promised Iris-T state of the art air defence system, which was finally given the go ahead by Chancellor Scholz, may be in #Ukraine tomorrow.
Finally found out what happened in #Crimea yesterday.

An 11 year old girl was hospitalised after a tank being repaired "accidentally" fired a shell, which flew 8km and hit the wall of a private house in #Dzhankoy.
🤡🤡

Earlier I warned #Russia, unable to make new weapons, may ask a third country to secretly produce them to evade sanctions.

I'm sure US and UK intelligence are watching UAE, whose leader Mohammed bin Zayed al Nahyan looked cosy with #Putin today?

Unconfirmed reports of gunfire in #Kyiv
#Dnipropetrovsk region - more energy infrastructure hit

#RussiaIsATerroristState
A double-tap attack on in #Vinnytsia on the Ladyzhynska Thermal Power Plant.

Rescuers were working there after the first blasts. At least six people reported injured.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #WarCrimes #PutinIsaWarCriminal
#Ukraine claims all 6 units at the nuclear power plant in #Enerhodar are shut down.

Furthermore they say the Occupiers are forcing employees of the #Zaporizhzhia NPP to sign contracts with #Russia's Rosatom instead of Ukraine's Enerhoatom.
#Russia declared @Meta as terrorists and extremists😅

The owner of Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp etc., is the latest to be added to the Kremlin's blacklist of companies.
#Kyiv, reportedly a short time ago. Gunfire heard.

£5,158 raised so far - amazing effort, thank you everyone.

Just two days left to donate as we help #Ukraine's soldiers defend themselves against the evil, terrorist empire.

In #Lyman bodies are still being exhumed to be examined for evidence of war crimes and to be given a proper burial.
Reuters published these photos of a mass grave, including the body of a #Ukraine officer taken out here.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
In #Shebekino, a village in #Russia less than 5km from the border with #Ukraine, an electricity substation seems to have been shelled.

There is no power to the settlement right now.

#StopRussia
Another 32 #Ukraine soldiers have returned home in the latest prisoner swap deal.

Among the released were officers, many of whom were considered missing.

#SlavaUkraini #SaveUkraine
What a disgusting inhuman creature.

No surprise she's supporting #Russia. Unhappy at a peaceful protest in support of #Ukraine in New York

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia
Confirming my little exclusive from earlier in the thread!

Der Spiegel confirms Iris-T has been sent by #Germany to #Ukraine

More shells hitting #Nikopol, a little earlier then the usual nightly barrage.

A woman and a young child have been badly injured. It's thought the girl will undergo amputation.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
Music to my ears.

Four more #HIMARS arrived from #USA
Hunting time!

#StandWithUkraine

Heartache for #Shakhtar as they're denied victory over mighty Real Madrid by a 95th minute equaliser.

But they still have qualification in their own hands.
Something's gone wrong in #Russia... a woman charged with "discrediting the army" has been released by a court in #Tyument.

The woman wrote "Peace to the world" on a pavement. Amazingly the judges decided this phrase did NOT contain an offensive message or discredit the army.

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

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.

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!

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."
