Welcome to another daily thread covering #Russia's illegal war in #Ukraine.

It's Wednesday 9 November, Day 259
The relative quiet of the previous 36 hours has ended, especially in #Dnipro.

To catch up on y'day's news, click and scroll here:

One of the biggest stories for #Ukraine is what's happening in the USA. As I type the Republicans look set to take control of the House, but with a very small majority, while the GOP looks likely to FAIL to take control of the Senate

That should mean no reduction in #Ukraine aid
Kamikaze drones have hit the city of #Dnipro.

There are reports of victims after infrastructure was hit by #Russia's attack.

The #Crimea Bridge won't be fully functional for another 10 months.

That's today's message from the UK Image
Hoping for good news from #Snihurivka today (RU: #Snigirevka) in #Mykolaiv / #Nikolaev

#Russia's army looks to have already retreated from here.

#RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine
Just another pathetic fake from #Russia's bloggers still trying to pretend there's a Nazi problem in #Ukraine.

I have a message for them:there are fascists in Ukraine. But hopefully they and their army will be kicked out of the Occupied land soon. ImageImage
Attacks on, and around, #Bakhmut (#RU: #Artemovsk) are still costing #Russia hundreds of lives every daanother 780 dead in the last 24 hours.

Saturday the day we are expecting to hit 80k Russian deaths.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia Image
The usual areas continue to be shelled by #Russia.

#Sumy and #Chernihiv regions receive up to 100 rockets every day.

The south of #Dniprooetrovsk also a constant target.
Here #Zaporizhzhia oblast which was hit 80 times in 17 villages in the last 24 hours. Two people injured. ImageImage
Funny story concerning #Russia where tourists, booked to go to #Madrid, ended up landing near the Syrian border!

Seems the travel agency mixed up Madrid with Madrin in Turkey.

They did get the connecting flight to Spain the next day.

Protests continue in #Russia where some family members have arrived at a military unit on the border.

They are from newly mobilized from #Voronezh #Kursk and #Belgorod regions. They are not against the war but demand their men are moved back from the front line.
#Ukraine Intelligence says it's busted an FSB plot to hit key commanders in #Kyiv and #Sumy regions.

#Russia's sabotage and intelligence group was detained while recovering weapons from a cache in Sumy oblast.

Day 1487 of Russia's 3-day Special Military Operation.
I wonder if Trump's slavish following of Putin will mean his own S.M.O. reaches 4 years?

But I am here to bring all the Ukraine news, as I have done EVERY SINGLE DAY since even before the full invasion. KoFi always welcome!
You may know I am in the middle of a tough 10-days of tennis comms, school commitments and parenting duties.

I read every comment, try to reply to all serious ones and credit all sponsors, but I am behind right now as I prioritise the news stories/🧵

I will catch up!💙💛
Thankfully, it's been a reasonably quiet news week, but a lot of Russians are dying at the front - with almost no noticeable land gains.

And Ukraine's concerted attacks on air defence is now reaping rewards. More targets struck overnight, catch up here:

Finally, I am here to start the Ukraine daily thread for Sunday 15 March. My body has recovered from self-inflicted sleep deprivation.

It's Day 1481 of the full Russian invasion.
All the important news, here in one place, every day.
Coming up, news of more Ukraine strikes, and how Zelenskyy delicately tries to say Trump is lying.

First though the link back to the start of yesterday's thread, which started with horrific scenes but again saw many good tactical strikes by Ukraine:

It's Oscars Day and #TeamTim is cheering for Pasha!

When the awards are handed out in LA tonight, we are hoping 'Mr Nobody' takes the documentary prize.

Apologies if this is geo-restricted by the BBC but this is a nice report I wanted to share:

It's Day 1451 of the attempt to wipe Ukraine off the map/

Russian athletes compete at the #WinterOlympics while a Ukrainian athlete is in court right now trying to overturn his ban.

This is THE daily thread. Facts not fabrication. Proof not propaganda. Every single day.
Here's the link for the start of yesterday's thread, for those playing catch-up.

A day dominated by the IOC's own goal, but more, regular attacks by Russia day and night.

Another tragedy/massacre in Ukraine, with at least four civilians killed in another Russian airstrike.

It happened in Kramatorsk in free Donetsk.
Three of those killed were under 21 years of age, the other victim was in his 60s.

The war in Europe continues. This is Day 1445 of Russia's attempt to erase Ukraine from the map & destroy its language and culture.

The genocide continues as I type, with a massive missile attack underway.

For all the news as it happens, keep checking back. This is THE daily🧵
Yesterday started with a supposed assassination attempt on another very senior Russian soldier.

A load of other great stories too, including the start of the overnight attack on Ukraine's remaining energy facilities. Catch up on what you missed here:

Having seen around 200 attack drones flying at the height of Russia's attack tonight, there are now around half that.

Day 1444 of Russia's merciless war has begun with the invaders losing another Lieutenant General - has Ukraine's special services struck again?

Detail on all the stories, all day, every day in my daily thread. Let's Go!
Thursday's thread included the release of a relatively small number of POWs - but finally some Azov fighters were freed.

And double delight for Ukraine tennis fans, to offset a little of the pain of more Russian attacks.
If you missed anything, click⬇️

So, Russia's reporting (which doesn't necessarily make it true) that one of the most senior Generals has been shot.

Lt Gen Vladimir Alekseev is said to be alive and in hospital after the attack in Moscow.

What makes me a little suspicious is there are no photos from the scene. Image

It's Monday, the second day of the 2nd month.
Day 1440 of Russia's illegal full invasion of its sovereign neighbour.

As we approach another round of "peace talks", Russia seems to be preparing by committing an ever growing number of sickening war crimes.

This is THE daily🧵
Yesterday was one of those days when I was repeatedly sickened by the actions of the monsters from Moscow.

The "energy truce" broken by attacking a bus of civilian miners heading to work. A medical building inc. a maternity unit hit, and more
Review here
Monday is a day of mourning in Dnipropetrovsk region following the deliberate targeting of a bus in the small town of Ternivka, near Pavlohrad.

16 people were killed. Another 14 are in hospital, seven of whom are in a serious condition.
