Hello again. The daily #Russia thread is here with all the details from the Terrorist State's unprovoked war on #Ukraine

Thursday is Day 253

Here's yesterday's thread to peruse at your leisure including stories on Russia sabotaging private fishing boats

The @IAEA has a busy day. The nuclear watchdog's report into #Russia's allegations of #Ukraine making a dirty bomb may be out today

But problems at the huge #Zaporizhzhia plant where the last power line's been cut by shelling today. Just 15 days' fuel left for backup generators
#Russia is so well resources and prepared for the winter phase of its war of choice, that it continues to beg, borrow & steal.

Occupied parts of #Ukraine plundered,
Iran providing food/drink and they & North Korea sending missiles, while #Belarus is giving vehicles says UK Intel
It was quite a productive day for #Ukraine's Southern Command.

It claims to have "destroyed 4 warehouses with ammunition, 9 units with armoured vehicles and 6 more railway fuel tanks"

Sabotage on #Russia's rail network, added to the high number of mobilised troops they're trying to move around is causing problems for the invaders.

Here the regional governor of #Kuzbass complains their coal's not being delivered:

Late on yesterday's thread I was tweeting about the attacks by #Ukraine on occupied #Kherson region

Now video of the damage at #HolaPrystan after a missile strike on what's believed to be a Russian base.

#KhersonIsUkraine #StopRussia
The anti Russian sentiment grows each day in #Ukraine.

Today's manifestation of this comes in #Mykolaiv (RU: #Nikolaev). The much hated Soviet 'Motherland' obelisk has been toppled.

#SlavaUkraini #StopRussia
Now 74,000* Russian soldiers killed in battle. An inglorious end in an illegal war.

Huge numbers continue, the first 4 categories well above mean.
Many recently killed are newly forced conscripts as the mobilised are thrust to the frontline with little support.

*🇺🇦 Estimate
Update: I've just deleted the previous post about boats being hit by #Ukraine's attack near the #Antonivskyi bridge.

#Ukraine journalists now say this was NOT due to that attack, but a continuation of #Russia's occupiers sabotaging local small vessels in #Kherson.
Speaking of bridges, good news from #Kyiv region where one of the key bridges during #Russia's invasion has been restored.

This is on M-06 highway to Zhytomyr in #Stoyanka.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
As #Russia's occupiers continue to move as much as possible over the river #Dnipro in #Kherson region, it seems they've started sabotaging cell-phone towers west of the river.

Four such reports so far.
#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine
Passengers in #Ukraine are surprised and happy to see #Russia's invaders have fled another checkpoint in #Kherson.

This morning "Aquafresh" has been cleaned from the #Kherson regional govt building.

No known reason but the fact is #Russia's flag is NOT flying on the admin building in the city centre of the Occupied city.

I dread to think how many more of these stories we are about to hear when the war criminals finally retreat behind the river in #Kherson oblast.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine

Smoke is seen near the HydroElectricPlant in #Kakhovka in occupied #Kherson.

We cannot leap to conclusions about who's responsible. Many fear sabotage from #Russia "on the way out"

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
Continuing the attempt to destroy anything that floats, or may do so in future, explosions have been reported at the Kuybyshev Ship Repair Yard in #Kherson. Smoke started to rise soon after.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia
📷TG Кonstantyn Ruzhenko
The Foreign Affairs Committee of the Parliament of #Czechia has designated #Russia as a Terrorist State

⚡️Breaking⚡️

Another large prisoner exchange has taken place. 107 of #Ukraine's captured soldiers are now free.

The former POWs are from all arms of the Defence Forces, including 3 more from #Azov battalion, while 74 were defenders of #Azovstal and #Mariupol.
⚡️Breaking⚡️

No signs of "undeclared nuclear activities and materials" in #Ukraine says Nuclear watchdog.

It follows unfounded allegations from #Russia of a 'dirty bomb'

A Russian diplomat says he has prove the UK sabotaged the NordStream underwater pipelines!

The same sort of proof that they had about #Ukraine preparing a dirty bomb?

news.sky.com/story/britain-…
Some of the concrete pill boxes we saw transported on lorries recently have turned up in #Kakhovka in occupied #Kherson.

This is on the embankment in front of the School of Arts.

#StandWithUkraine️ #RussiansGoHome
A little earlier today video appeared of #Ukraine's flag being restored in a small village in the north-west of #Kherson oblast.

Bila Krynytsya is about 90km north of #Kherson city near the state border with #Mykolaiv.
Some news in brief:

#Sweden and #Finland have fulfilled #Turkiye's requests and should now be admitted to #NATO says @jensstoltenberg

#Bulgaria's Parliament overwhelmingly votes to supply of arms to Ukraine

#USA confirms no embezzlement of weapons given to #Ukraine
Another derailment in #Russia.
This time in #Rubtsovsk, around 25 miles/40km from the border with #Kazakhstan.

It doesn't look suspicious but campaign groups say there are no repairs or maintenance on the railways because the cash is being spent on the war.

#StopRussia
#RussiaOnFire
This is in #Bryansk this evening - around 100km from the border with #Ukraine

No further details yet...

Another night of no sleep yet - dramatic action in Moscow.

Time to start another daily thread covering everything to do with Putin's disastrous 'operation' in Ukraine.

It's 5am in Russia and Ukraine, on Day 1190 of the war.
Let's begin...
I've still NEVER missed even one day since the start of Russia's full invasion.

But yesterday's thread ended up being one of the most lively. Another near 50-post story of the day, and if you like seeing "bavovna" in Russia, go right through to the end!
1/3
Russia says 33 drones have been shot down approaching Moscow during the night.

The biggest incident is clearly this at the Mikron micro-electronics plant in Zelenograd, in Moscow oblast...

Hello again and welcome to the daily thread for Day 1189 of Russia's illegal war.

While media keep hinting Trump may be about to impose sanctions on Putin's regime, there's still evidence to say he hates Zelenskyy more.

All the news from and about Ukraine in one🧵right here:
As always though, in case you missed anything yesterday, blow is the link to the start of Monday's thread

So if you don't have much time online, just bookmark my profile page and you can always go back to where you left off for a summary of all the news
A much quieter night, but Russia still fired 60 drones into Ukraine. Air Defence managed to stop 43 (35 shot down and 8 disabled via EW)

But that still leaves 17 which made it through, at a very high strike rate of 28%

Good morning on Day 1176 of the war in Europe.
In my opinion, Ukraine should have won this war in 2022/23.

Effective leadership is based on good, decisive decisions. Sadly, the allies have never been decisive, preferring dithering and half measures.

Welcome to my daily thread:
What I mean by dithering is endless internal political battles in most countries to give adequate weapons. Scholz (Taurus), Biden (everything) the most obvious examples, though Joe was hampered by Congress and is way better than now

But it's always enough to survive, not to win
If you missed anything from yesterday, catch up with this link to the start of yesterday's thread. Scroll down to where you got to and complete your knowledge!

The start of a new week and simultaneously almost the end of 167 weeks of Russia's attempt to liberate Ukraine from its leader and remove the country from maps.

It's Day 1167 of Putin's full invasion. Welcome to Monday's daily thread.
First the link back to Sunday's thread for those who were busy y'day

It started with Ukraine counting the cost of yet more strikes on civilians and infrastructure but there were more strategic hits on Russia during the day, incl a night attack on Moscow.
If you were with me late last night, you will know about the ballistic missiles and big drone attack on Sumy.

I think Russia moved to attacking soft targets in big numbers.

A record 46% of UAVs were NOT stopped.
116 fired, just 42 shot down and 21 neutralised by EW.Image

Day 1163 of Russia's war of choice, invading a peaceful neighbour.

Another bloody and murderous night in Ukraine, but the pressure is all on Russia today as Ukraine signs the minerals deal, the US (finally) continues its shift against Putin and the oil price dives

Here's THE🧵
Good morning and happy May (or MayDay).

I have to say a new month brings new optimism for Ukraine following the US/Ukraine agreement.

That was the biggest news story of a near 50-post thread.
It took me ages - least you can do is read it!😂

1/4
There is a lot of criticism of the minerals deal, even more scepticism and a lot of confusion, so let me give my analysis and key points.

First, Yuliia Svyrydenko, Ukraine Dep PM gave her full explanation after signing the deal, this gives 🇺🇦 POV

Day 1158 of the war in Europe.
This is the daily thread for Saturday 26 April, and as I mentioned last night, the anniversary of the Chornobyl disaster.

A later start today, sorry if I kept you waiting, but let's waste no more time...
Yesterday we saw Russia attack civilians of course, but we also probably also got a reminder of the power of Ukraine's Military Intelligence, as a Russian general and a weapons designer were both confirmed dead.

Plus full details of the peace plan(s)⬇️
1/2
Also today of course, and continuing right now in the Vatican is the farewell to Pope Francis.

Putin cannot attend because he would be arrested as an indicted war criminal.

On the front row, Zelenskyy, Macron and Trump.
