The news agenda is still dominated by one event in #Russia, where the first serious questions are being asked by "regular" (non liberal) families over military disasters.
It follows this wipeout of a new battalion of mobilised troops by #Ukraine's forces
This footage has been published in #Kherson, supposedly from the regional government building.
Remember #Russia's flag was removed earlier this week and it looks genuine that this is indeed the now abandoned building.
It's also said toilets were again stolen, but no proof here:
What did you do when you woke up this morning?
Turn on the light? Take a shower? Make a tea of coffee?
For anyone in #Ukraine the last task at night or first in the morning is to check when the power cuts will happen and if they will be able to do any of the things you and I did
In #Odesa seems they are fed up with statues being given "patriotic" makeovers!
I deleted this video from liberated #Lyman and now reposting because #Russia has just claimed it hit a base for #Ukraine fighters, presumably this school was it.
The Kremlin says "up to 100 foreign mercenaries" were destroyed including "about 40 from USA, UK and Poland."
#Russia indirectly admits hacking former British PM's phone.
Moscow spy chief Sergey Naryshkin told a TV programme an SMS from Liz Truss to Anthony Blinken saying "everything is done" referred to the #NordStream pipeline sabotage.
Much of occupied #Kherson region has been without power all day and some residents also without water.
Now #Russia says #Ukraine's Resistance has caused the outages with an explosion on the Beryslav-Kakhovka road which damaged concrete supports of a high-voltage power line.
Remarkable video from occupied #Luhansk oblast.
So many people have died the cemeteries are full.
Now they resort to just burying "#Russia's heroes" at the side of the road.
The music by the way is "Everything's Going To Plan" by the late Yegor Letov.
Seen on TG UAonlii
A #Ukraine politician from #Kherson says there are fewer than 20,000 of #Russia's soldiers remaining on the right bank of the region.
By the way the right bank's the LEFT side of the map.
Confused? The left bank is left side of a river in direction it flows; in this case🧭N➡️S
How good is this street art?
In #Mykolaiv, Kolya Serhi made this mural near a playground, to show a boy escaping the war to reach back into his sunny childhood in the city.
Another of #Russia's so-called church has been killed in #Ukraine
"Archpriest" Mikhail Vasilev gloried in working at "the headquarters of the Strategic Missile Forces"
Russian Orthodox priests regularly bless missiles sent to kill civilians in #Ukraine & utter racist statements.
Confirmation that the statue of "Catherine the Great" in #Odesa is being dismantled.
This morning I reported on fencing which appeared around the legendary Russian leader. Now a sign has been put on the fence announcing the news.
#Kherson is no longer subjected to Russian TV programmes!
Spokesman for #Ukraine's Southern Command, Vladislav Nazarov says the Kremlin's propaganda channels stopped being transmitted about a week ago after the previous wave of "evacuations".
A little earlier this was posted on Tiktok allegedly showing #Russia's fearless army adding a children's train ride to the long list of goods stolen from #Kherson.
Maybe they need a faster getaway?
Many media are running this video but it is unverified.
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.
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
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.
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.
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..
