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.

Sunday 3 August 2025. It's Day 1257.
T-7 days til Trump's self-imposed deadline for Russia expires.

But Putin's horde continue to hit civilian targets.
However Ukraine has been hitting military targets in greater number overnight.

Here's THE daily🧵. All the news All the time
Well Saturday proved to be a very newsworthy day with many attacks on both sides.

Here's the link to the start of Saturday's feed, click and scroll if you missed anything.

The big story since the last couple of hours of y'day's thread has been Ukraine's multiple successes in breaching Russia's air defence at military targets.

The Kremlin says it destroyed 93 drones, 60 over the Black Sea. There's no mention of how many they missed!
Exhibit A:

It's Day 1266 of Russia's full invasion.

Even the most ardent peaceniks are realising one side doesn't want to stop fighting. At least until, as a state new agency said recently, all Ukrainians are killed.

Each + every day you'll find all the news here in one handy🧵
Let's go!
If you missed anything of yesterday's developments, well not as much to catch up on.

Click the link to review, things only really started going late at night..

Trying to compile threads on a train, using mobile only so far, is a nightmare. My first typo was rather important. It's Day 1256, so the observant don't need to message me 😊

Family day out today, going to see "Evita"
But always a thread and as up to date as I can be.

"White rabbits" is what I have to say to you this morning.

An old British custom is to say 'rabbits' or 'white rabbits' (often 3 times) at the start of a new month to ensure good luck for the month ahead

August is the 43rd month of Russia's war.
Today is Day 1255. Here's the🧵
Yesterday was a depressing day.
Not just Russia's horrific attacks on Kyiv, but the general lack of response and condemnation. The world just shrugs its shoulders.

We are better than this.

Review what you missed yesterday here:

2 weeks ago I said things could move quickly on air defence. One system had reportedly already been delivered to Ukraine

Remember Switzerland's order was bumped down to give priority to🇺🇦?
Now Germany says 2 more Patriots will be sent by October, starting with launchers in days

Day 1254. Eight more til Trump Sanctions Day.

Putin's response was to bomb the cr*p out of Ukraine's capital again overnight.

It's decency against inhumanity. Which side are you on?

Welcome to THE daily thread.
Wednesday was a fairly quiet day, punctuated by the odd Russian missile attack, before another enormous attack centre on Kyiv.. and it's still going on.

But Ukraine hit back in Russia.
Missed anything? Click and scroll, but please come back!

Five missiles are over Kyiv right now.
I hope everyone's safely in shelters.

Tuesday 29 July. Day 1252.
Documenting all the important stories and developments in Ukraine's ongoing fight for survival against an invading horde.

Every Single Day. No break, no days off.
All the news from the war in Europe, all the time.
Monday was probably a better day for Ukraine.
We saw Trump appear to lose patience with indicted war criminal Putin, we saw a Ukraine flag replanted in one reclaimed village & late in the thread more strikes on Russia's rail infrastructure.

Catch up here
I'll begin in Rostov region, where earlier Ukraine hit railway infrastructure in the town of Salsk.

Pretty much the whole of the rail network in Rostov oblast is crucial to Russia's military. The proximity to occupied parts of Ukraine & the route to Crimea run through here. Image

Day 1249 of terrorism being inflicted on Ukraine.

It's been another very difficult night as Russia pounds major cities with combined attacks.

I'm still documenting all the war crimes - no sleep yet, please support my work with a KoFi (link in profile)

Here's Saturday's thread
Russia's night time attack is continuing.
Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk regions have been most badly hit.

You can read about most of the attack towards the end of Friday's thread - it's another big one and here's the link for the start; click & scroll..

This is the shocking sight in Dnipro after the latest of many missile attacks on the city and wider region this morning.
