I saw this photo a few days ago on a busy day, so worth highlighting now. It really is remarkable the standard of some of #Ukraine's longer term bases created, and this isn't the only one just for the cameras.

This is the state of the Catherine The Great monument in #Odesa today.

#Ukraine's air defence has had a good night and morning.
In #Kyiv 6 "killer" drones were downed, while in #Odesa
defense forces managed to stop three Kh-59 cruise missiles fired from Su-30 aircraft.
Recent western donations are having a big effect now.

Another huge number* of #Russia's soldiers lost their lives in the pointless war, massaging #Putin's ego.
800 more dead on the battlefield, the 2nd highest daily number, resulting from pinpoint missile strikes on military bases plus ground offensives from both sides

One of #Iran's kamikaze drones which did hit a target in #Ukraine overnight, landed in #Cherkasy.
Two other UAVs were shot down, but one hit civilian infrastructure.
No injuries there; by contrast 10 were injured in a car accident in #Cherkassy this morning.

#Russia is summoning the British ambassador as they try to continue the bizarre claims that the UK was behind both sabotaging the NordStream pipelines and attacks on the city of #Sevastopol on occupied #Crimea.

I am loathe to report NYT these days due to its repeated unreliable "unnamed sources" and often ill-informed writers. However as it's an important topic and will be discussed elsewhere, here it is:

A bit more detail on the damage to #Russia's ships in #Sevastopol during the weekend 'drone' attack.

I think this is a different protest from mobilised Russians to the one I showed earlier in the thread. But again demanding the payment they were promised.
It's from the Republic of #Chuvash, about 10 hours due east of Moscow.

I stand with Ivan, and all Ukrainians.
There are an incredible number of offensive, racist and/or ill-informed people, who by design or not, say exactly what Putin wants them to.

I've long been unhappy about the way things are run in the #Ukraine region of #Dnipropetrovsk with widespread accusations of corruption.
Now the Head of the region stands accused by @ukrpravda_news and here, of illegally enriching a companion:

There are horrific numbers of deaths on the frontline on both sides of the war right now.
But #Russia seems to be losing an incredible amount of senior officers. The latest to die is Commander of a helicopter unit, Lieutenant Colonel Vyacheslav Zangyev.
