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"
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.
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.
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.
Day 1233 of a war that's the biggest threat to the future stability of the lives of every person reading this.
The root cause is extremist, imperialist and anti-democratic forces being allowed to wage war unchecked. Ukraine in the firing line today, but who's next? Here's the🧵
Another very difficult night for Ukraine, especially Kyiv, with more deaths now confirmed in the capital.
It was a second successive very long and loud night for many. To bring yourself up to date on all yesterday's news, click the link:
First breaking news this morning from Kyiv, where a man has been shot dead in the Holosiivskyi district of the capital.
It's now been confirmed that the victim is a colonel of the Security Service of Ukraine.
The gunman used fired from a gun with a silencer and fled in a SUV.
Welcome along to Saturday's edition of my daily threads - the most reliable news source on Ukraine's defence throughout the entire Russian full invasion.
We've reached Day 1228. Every Single Day
Fact checked and analysis by a professional journalist with Ukraine expertise.
I've literally just finished Friday's thread, with an extraordinary flurry of late news from inside Russia rounding off another bumper thread, stretching to 60 posts.
A late start to today's thread on Day 1216 of Russia's war of choice, after another late finish due to the latest murderous attack on civilians by Putin's horde.
With all the important news, every day, this is THE best place for Accurate, Reliable, Honest analysis and reporting
Kyiv was again the target overnight, details at the end of yesterday's thread.
But a lot of important and interesting stories Sunday, including how the animal kingdom took revenge on one traitor, but more pain for Ukraine as a training ground is again hit
Zelenskyy is visiting my shores today, speaking with Sir Keir Starmer to discuss joint defence protection, which will probably see an agreement on manufacturing.
Ukraine's leader points out the hypocrisy of Russia, condemning the US strikes in Iran then hours later hitting Kyiv
Russia displayed outright Nazism + Fascism on Friday.
From killing in Ukraine, more utterings from the war-criminal in chief, to locking up young women and taking legal action against small independent new sites.
