Day 256 of #Russia's 10-day war on #Ukraine.

Here's the start of the daily thread with all the news.
Some dramatic news yesterday - if you missed it, click the link and scroll.

#StopRussia

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

#Russia's daily losses, published by #Ukraine each day, shows fewer troops and equipment destroyed yesterday than in recent days.

The wipeout of the Voronezh battalion happened previously and likely included in previous days' figures.

#StopRussia
The daily Intel update from Britain's Ministry of Defence has a "weekend" feel to it again!

They revisit the sacking of General Lapin which I covered a while ago as part of a battle between #Russia's MoD and Prigozhin/Wagner 'hawks'

#StopRussia
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!

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Devastation in #Zaporizhzhia overnight with two rockets from #Russia hitting the city centre.

At least one person died in the attacks. One shell hit a local business, the other landed in a residential area.

#Zaporozhe #RussiaIsATerroristState
Here's a before and after look at the centre of #Hulyaipole in #Zaporizhzhia oblast.

Missiles have destroyed the town centre - more wanton civilian destruction.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
Another video of devastation in #Bakhmut, where #Ukraine's troops continue to hold out against #Russia's best units.

#StandWithUkraine
In #Ukraine held #Pokrovsk huge explosions heard overnight. The likelihood is #Russia hit an ammunition dump.

Today this is how the out of use school in the town in #Donetsk region.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
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.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
This news is hardly a surprise, but even some pro-#Russia bloggers now say #Kherson will be conceded in "3-4 days"

The scenes from the admin building and removal of guard-posts indicated that, but #Ukraine has warned it could be a trap.

Kherson's the only major city 🇷🇺 gained.
It looks like another oil terminal in #Russia has been struck. This is in the district of Grayvoron bordering #Ukraine.

However Russians are saying it's a solvent tank alight in an industrial enterprise.

Make up your own minds😉
#StopRussia
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.

#Nikolaev #Ukraine #RussiansGoHome
One news site in #Ukraine has been trying to collect details of all the brawling, killing and general problems with new recruits in #Russia's army.

24tv.ua/ru/mobilizacij…
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.

#Ukraine #Odessa
Unverified video of another mobilised troop rebellion in #Russia.

Again, they complain they were not paid and started shouting abuse at the General in #Kazan.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia
Wow! That was quick!

I see this and think:

For the "2nd Army In The World" it's clearly getting hot and they're shi**ing themselves.

Cool time-lapse video from the historic Podil district of #Kyiv.

This is how the "Ghost of Kyiv" painting was created.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
More trouble for #Russia and worse, more public discontent and discussion at the insane losses.

Marines from the Pacific Fleet complained to the Governor of Primorye after suffering 100s of losses near #Pavlivka in #Donetsk oblast.

meduza.io/news/2022/11/0…
#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".

#RussiansGoHome #KhersonIsUkraine
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.

#RussiaisATerroistState
Generally quiet so far tonight in #Ukraine, but just hearing reports of an explosions in #KryvyiRih. Not confirmed yet.

#StopRussia

Christmas Day 2024. Day 1036 of the war inflicted on #Ukraine. The third Christmas for Ukrainian people to suffer. Empty chairs at the dinner table, that will never be filled again. Others at the frontline fighting for their lives and the life of the country.

It's the daily🧵
So Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to those celebrating.

A special shout out too, to those working this special day. Also working today, emergency workers in #Ukraine after another massive missile attack

Tuesday 19 November 2024.
I can't quite believe we reached 1,000 days.
#Ukraine is still free, refusing to buckle to the imperialist #Russia

I'm incredibly proud to have documented every single moment, no days off, no holiday, no sickness.

UkrainaOnline encapsulated 1000 days
If you like what I do, if you've never done it before, please consider buying me a coffee on this milestone day. It took a hell of a lot of work.

Thank you to my #TeamTim

Today is Day 999 of Europe's war

It's cold in the UK today. Imagine if you didn't have heat. Not just for one day, but maybe for most of the winter Now imagine it's 10 degrees colder

If you can do that you understand what people in #Ukraine feel, or fear.
Welcome to my daily🧵
Monday and Tuesday are days of mourning in #Sumy region after an horrific attack on an apartment block.

It was the last in a long line of murders of civilians by #Russia on Sunday.

I produced the longest thread for months (over 60 posts) - catch up here
Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.

An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.

Day 998 of #Russia's all out war, and Sunday 17 Nov is the day #Moscow's war criminals chose for the big missile attack on #Ukraine

It's such a difficult time for anyone associated with Ukraine. With the election of Musk/Trump, Putin's convinced terrorism will win.
Here's the🧵
Before I forget, here's the link for yesterday's thread. I know many of you like to catch up on what you've missed in #Ukraine and stories connected to the war.

#Ukraine's FM takes a swipe at #Germany's Chancellor Scholz while declaring this one of the largest air attacks.

From #Chernihiv in the north, to #Odesa in the south.
#Kharkiv in the east to #Lviv in the west. #Russia hits them all.

Hello and welcome to Day 996 of #Russia's barbaric war.

Putin's band of war criminals is throwing everything at #Ukraine's defenders for 2 months as the Kremlin is certain tRUmp will force negotiations and wants to be in the strongest position possible.

Here's the daily thread
#Russia is literally teetering on the edge of economic meltdown. If the west does not take this opportunity to ensure justice, protect borders and prosecute war criminals, historians will look back and shake their heads. They may also ask why do anything in the previous 3 years?
Anyway, let's get on with the stories of the day, although we start as ever with the link back to Thursday's thread.

It was a day which saw more problems for #Russia, more war crimes with a civilian shot dead on the street and a terrible attack on #Odesa
