Friday's daily thread covering #Russia's war on #Ukraine starts here

In the #UK, 4 November is/was "Mischief Night" (is that still a thing?); sadly every day's a nightmare for Ukrainians

It's Day 254
Coming up: pleas for help from people in Mariupol and a new #Bucha documentary
Firstly, thanks to Tony for buying me a coffee (and a bacon sandwich too!)
If you think I deserve a coffee, see my bio.

If you missed anything yesterday, here's the link:

It's 3am in #Mariupol where temps will dip to +2
While many other areas of #Ukraine don't have power, many residents in occupied Mariupol don't even have windows. Civilians still forced to live in ruined tower blocks, hang banners "Children freezing" & "Where are the windows"
A new documentary by some of the biggest organisations in journalism, shows the definitive truth about war crimes in #Bucha.

10 months ago #Russia's 'army' was committing appalling acts just outside #Kyiv

Graphic video:
#Ukraine's troops still defend valiantly in #Bakhmut.

The city is ruined. Some citizens still remain. So does humanity. Food is scarce, but always important to find enough for man's best friends.
In #Donetsk region, a house has been partially destroyed in #Makiivka (RU: #Makeevke)

Looks like a missile attack, but the Occupiers are silent so far.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome
No photos but credible reports of a Russian base having been hit this morning in #Oleshka in #Kherson region.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
#Russia is employing troops to shoot its own troops if they try to retreat. It's so Hitleresque!
I thought we may have the first day of 1,000 Russian deaths in #Ukraine. In the event just short, but I think the second highest daily number of 🇷🇺soldiers killed in battle
#Ukraine's President will soon be (back) on @netflix

Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a guest on the chat show "My next guest needs no introduction" hosted by legendary David Letterman.

The two chatted in a metro station.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Occupied #Donetsk region - a missile has hit the town of #Horlivka.

No news yet on target or damage.

#StandWithUkraine
Last night I reported on the strike of a building in occupied #Makiivka.

#Russia says one woman died.
But if it was a #Ukraine hit, they've had very good intel and precision western weapons to pick off accommodation used by invading soldiers.

#Makeevka #RussianGoHome
A bridge in deepest Russia appears to be coming out in sympathy with the #Antonivskyi in #Kherson!

A big hole suddenly appeared here in #Orsk near the border with Kazakhstan
#Netherlands announces a new €120 million military aid package for #Ukraine.

The deal will include tanks and other weapons.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Three more fires of some note in #Russia today.
1: one person died, 25 rescued in #Vladivostok
2: Blaze inside shopping centre in #Penza
3: #Ukyanovsk - big fire in new development.

#RussiaOnFire
A court in occupied #Sevastopol has declared 17 "missing" crew of the #Moskva dead.

But the law refuses to recognise them as victims of war or combat. Relatives would have to wait 2 years for that verdict.

#StopRussia

More great news for #Ukraine from the #USA

The only worry may be the US midterms and if Republicans take back control they may stop the support.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

Some networks in #Russia reporting explosions in #Taganrog. Initial reports were over an hour ago and nothing since.

Once previously during the war Taganrog lost power after similar reports. The city if about 50km from #Ukraine

rostov.ru/society/v-taga…
Earlier today officials in Occupied #Kherson said there would be a "round-the-clock" curfew.
It seems there's been widespread anger even among troops, police and Russian sympathisers. The traitor Head has now been forced to deny new restrictions, the 22:00-05:00 curfew remains.
Today #Ukraine's cheeky postal service published another new stamp, this time called "#Crimea Bridge: the encore"

The official launch was on the "Klichko Bridge" in #Kyiv, which famously survived #Russia's recent missile attack.

lb.ua/society/2022/1…
Hahahahaha!
Upgrade works in progress in occupied #Donetsk!

Earlier today in the city centre they unveiled a signpost saying "To Russia 0 km"
By the evening it had disappeared!

#SlavaUkraini #DonetskIsUkraine
Sorry for delays replying to your messages. I've been busy on multiple fronts, including our team purchasing lots of gear for #Ukraine's soldiers with the donations you guys made.

Boots, thermal underwear and Goretex jackets the main request. Full details/photos in a few days
#Russia's installed administration in #Donetsk says 6 people died in the region today in shelling it says was carried out by #Ukraine.

3 of the deaths happened here at the Stirol plant, which manufactures nitrogen fertilisers and other chemical products.

#StopRussia
Love this! #Ukraine Patriots still very evident in temporarily occupied #Kherson.

This sign received a colour makeover this morning!

Hundreds of #Russian military tents in #Belarus visible on satellite photos.

Plenty of war equipment too on the border with #Ukraine.

svaboda.org/a/32115828.html
Two cruise missiles shot down over #Ukraine.

The country's recently improved air defences managed to hit the Kalibr missiles - one over #Mykolaiv and one in #Kherson region.

Ukrainian officials say they were fired by #Russia from the Black Sea

pravda.com.ua/news/2022/11/4…
Russian channels reporting big explosions in #Pokorovsk in the #Ukraine controlled part of #Donetsk

They claim ammo has been exploding for 3-4 hours near the railway station.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia
Elon Musk is accused of switching off 1,300 Starlink terminals on #Ukraine's frontline last week.

The company wants the US govt to pay the bill. CNN quotes a member of #Ukraine's military saying they were "disconnected due to a lack of funding"

edition.cnn.com/2022/11/04/pol…
Quite a lot of drones have been buzzing over, and attacking, #Ukraine this evening.

#Vinnytsia #Dnipro and #Mykolaiv seem worst affected so far, but no reports of serious damage yet, except to the Iranian machinery

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 Image

Welcome to another daily thread - THE place for honest assessment and analysis of all the news around Ukraine and Russia.

It's Day 1214 of the full-scale war. I still have an unblemished record - every single day.

Why not show your support with a ☕️?

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.

8 missiles and 272 drones were fired at Ukraine overnight.

ALL Russian missiles were trained on Kremenchuk, but Ukraine claims NONE reached their targets, including 2 x Kindzhals (5 shot, 3 EW)

In addition 252 UAVs were stopped (93%)
140 being shot down, 112 stopped with EW. Image

Thursday 19 June is Day 1212 of the conflict in Europe.

Russia continues to make ground, expending its soldiers at will for a few more metres as Ukraine fights for its existence having been shamefully let down by the USA.

I'm here every single day, so here's today's daily 🧵
Wednesday saw the death toll in Kyiv rise throughout the day, ending at double the number it started at. Then later Putin cynically told journalists they only hit military targets

Elsewhere another traitor to Ukraine met his fate - click here to catch-up
Another milestone is reached.

Trump is now 150 days late in promising "peace within 24 hours" of taking office.

It's also, as @andrii_sybiha points out, 100 days since🇺🇦 agreed to an unconditional ceasefire, as tRUmp demanded.
Russia did what it always does: delay, lie, kill. Image

Tuesday 17 June 2025.

No time to waste. Kyiv is under the most immense attack.

It's Day 1210 of Russia's increasingly desperate attempt to eviscerate Ukraine and all Ukrainians.

Here's the daily thread, continuing to document the night attacks...
Just gone 04:35 in Kyiv.
A hellish night is not yet over.
Apartment blocks, student dormitories hit.
6 districts of Kyiv city damaged, plus other injuries in the wider region

Here's the link for Monday's thread with all the last half showing the chaos:
If you're just waking up, here's an idea of what's happened to Kyiv while you were sleeping.

Ukraine's capital has not slept.
Many are without homes due to Russia's ongoing war crimes and one person, an American, has lost his life during the attack. Image

Hello again. Day 1203 of Russia's genocidal war in Ukraine

Anyone with a brain slightly larger than that of a chihuahua knows it. Russian history and Putin's own words spelt it out, but peaceniks, Naziniks and idiotniks are still in denial

More proof coming up in🧵for Day 1203
Yesterday's thread lasted well over 24 hours, but nothing to be proud of.

I know I'm crazier than you, and thankfully you all have lives to live. So you will be needing the link to the start of yesterday's thread so you can catch up on what you missed..

Genocide - a short thread within a🧵
I am simply staggered governments and world organisations are too weak to acknowledge the mountain of evidence.

The recent huge missile attacks should be enough, but useful idiots are fooled by Russia's plausible deniability.

A very early start to my daily thread on Day 1202 of Russia's 3 day 'special operation' to capture Kyiv.

It's so special Putin just doesn't want it to stop!

It's another no-sleep night as I start Monday's news feed on all things Ukraine.

Thanks for your support, I rely on you
Another huge Russian attack continues as I type. It could be the biggest yet.

The attack started about half way through yesterday's thread! So catch up here if you're just waking up.

The biggest problem in Ukraine tonight has been for Dubno, in Rivne region.

Heavily attacked in the evening, but now as light bathes the town, it's even worse. All cruise missiles in Ukraine are about to hit, and 3 drones too.
