Day 265 of #Russia's illegal war.

For all the news this Tuesday keep coming back to this thread with all the important news, updated 'live'.

All of #Ukraine currently waiting to hear news from the left bank in #Kherson region.

Here's Monday's thread:

https://twitter.com/TWMCLtd/status/1592050701508775936

Last night rumours swept #Ukraine that the army had liberated multiple settlements on the south/east bank in #Kherson, fanned by Govt officials commenting on #Oleshky.

But so far they remain just rumours with no hard evidence.

Here's the British Intel update which explains why #Henichesk was chosen by #Russia as its 'capital' of #Kherson, having lost the real regional centre last week.

#SlavaUkraini #StopRussia

Some more photos of the winter clothing (and more) you helped buy with donations to the fundraiser I launched here recently.

Thanks everyone for helping #Ukraine's soldiers be well prepared for the freezing months of fighting ahead. Personal messages are being made

Explosions this morning in Occupied #Melitopol'

The exiled Mayor of the town, Ivan Fedorov reported the news on his Telegram channel - translated here:

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

#Ukraine's publishes its daily total of #Russia's war losses.

Back to big numbers with all the first four categories above the norm, including another 710 dead soldiers.

#RussiansGoHome

It's being reported by the local RIA_Melitopol Telegram site that Partisans have badly injured another traitor.

Collaborator Dima (Korobko) Trukhin is said to be in intensive care.
It's not immediately clear if his injury was sustained in this morning's blast in #Melitopol

#Ukraine does NOT look to have captured any land on the left bank of the Dnipro in #Kherson region yet.

The daily update from the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not confirm rumours about Kinburn Spit, #Oleshky or any of the other settlements.

I speculated it may have been a PsyOp

We do have what amounts to confirmation now from #Ukraine that forces have landed on the Kinburn Spit.

Natalya Humenyuk, Spokeswoman for Southern Command, told the TV war broadcast "This is currently a zone of active hostilities, so we are keeping quiet about it now."
🙏🤞

We all take it for granted - they did too in #Ukraine until 9 months ago.

Today on a misty day in #Mykolaiv (#Nikolaev), the first passenger train rolled back into the station.

In 10 days' time the line to #Kherson will be running again.

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome

#Putin's wannabe "Dodgy Ticker" Lavrov has said #Ukraine put forward 'unrealistic conditions' for negotiations. Those conditions were just a ceasefire and that #Russia left all occupied lands.

Lavrov claims Ukraine is delaying the resolution of the war.

Fact Check: 💩🤡💩

More reports of internal fighting among #Russia's troops.

Locals in occupied #Melitopol' filmed numerous emergency vehicles heading to a barracks where the conscripts and mobilised had reportedly got drunk and started brawling.

Unconfirmed.

#Russia claims to have total control of #Pavlivka in #Donetsk region.

The Russian Defence Ministry says they "destroyed up to 1,400 #Ukraine servicemen" as well as two jets and a helicopter.

Not verified.

Did you know?

The number of times the UN's Human Right page for Russia @UNHumanRightsRu, has mentioned #Ukraine here on Twitter: Zero

The @UN's latest report into the treatment of Prisoners of War in #Russia and #Ukraine make grim reading with both sides criticised.

The UN is investigating deaths of 9 Ukrainians during beatings while another tells of electrodes attached to his genitals

I am almost lost for words.

So, there's a football tournament going on, so don't defend your people and your homeland.

#Vinnytsia reports an explosion and so too the town of #Kovel in the #Volyn region in the west of #Ukraine.

Some power cuts in #Lviv after the attacks there.

Emergency power cuts introduced in #Kyiv after missile attacks on #Ukraine's capital. This is in addition to the scheduled cuts.

Here's a video from the scene of the missile attack on #Cherkasy (#Cherkassy)

#Rivne and #Kharkiv saying strikes there were on critical infrastructure.

Power off in parts of both regions.

Despite continued air raid warnings, rescue services have been trying to fight the fires in #Kyiv and rescue civilians targeted by #Russia

#Ternopil - explosions heard - may be only air defence which has been working.

#UkraineUnderAttack #RussiaIsATerroristState

"Several" missiles hit #KryvyiRih according to the Head of the city, Oleksandr Vilkul.

All power off in #Zhytomyr and the same story in #Kharkiv after this strike likely on a substation.

#UkraineUnderAttack #RussiaIsATerroristState

Critical infrastructure also hit in #Kremenchuk (#Kremenchug)

#UkraineUnderAttack #RussiaIsATerroristState

In #Cherkasy the strike was in the region, not in the city.
Power has also been cut there following the missile attack.

#Cherkassy #StandWithUkraine

#IvanoFrankivsk also reporting an explosion in the region.

Excluding #Luhansk, I make it only 4 regions of #Ukraine have not been targeted by #Russia today (yet)

11 regions of #Ukraine reporting total, or partial, power cuts right now after the three waves of #Russia's missiles.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

At least one civilian died in #Kyiv missile attacks

#Russia's delegation has been expelled from the G20.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

#Ukraine Air Force says #Russia has fired around 100 missiles in the countrywide strike

#UkraineUnderAttack
#RussiaIsATerroristState

President @ZelenskyyUa made an emergency statement a short while ago after the huge attack by #Russia

Resolute. Determined. Unbowed.

Ukrainians will never give in.
The mood on the bomb shelters said everything

#RussiaIsATerroristState

#Russia says 2 people died in shelling of #Shebekino, about 5 miles/8km from the border with #Ukraine.

Three others were injured in the #Belgorod town

** Graphic video - victims blurred **

One other problem from Kyivans (and other cities) is huge traffic jams.

Everyone emerging from shelters at the same time, with no lighting on the roads and no traffic signals.

From my research, the official statistics released by #Ukraine about today's attacks by #Russia look accurate.

Missiles fired: 90
Air Defence hit: 70
Power sites hit: 15

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine

In the #Bryansk region #Russia says an attempted attack on oil tanks has failed.

Officials say a #Ukraine drone dropped bombs on the Zhecha terminal about 50om from the border with #Ukraine.

There was only a small fire of oil residue, which was quickly dealt with.

⚡️BREAKING⚡️

Russian missiles kill civilians in NATO territory

Two people died in #Poland when a rocket fell on Przewodów in Hrubieszów area, 10km from the #Ukraine border.

Journalist @wolski_jaros reports the trajectory/impact make it look more likely to be a stray 🇷🇺rocket

#RUSSIA BOMBS #NATO #POLAND killing two people

"In connection with the emergency situation, PM Morawiecki, in agreement with President Duda, ordered to convene a meeting of the Committee on National Security and Defence Affairs" - Press Secretary of the Government of Poland

#USA:
The Pentagon says it cannot yet confirm if Russian missiles hit Poland, where two people died.

Interesting. Wonder if Putin's been on the phone?

https://twitter.com/AFP/status/1592605367271362562?t=YCHPz4PCGlsNpoT9Vo6qtA&s=19

Here's th first video from the site of the suspected Russian missile hit inside #Poland's borders.

Although this will no doubt be put down to "an accident", this was not some artillery shell. It must have been a guided missile.
It was not only 10km into #Poland, there's nothing on the #Ukraine border itself to hit. So we're talking about a 15km error. Plausible or provocation?

#Russia Defence Ministry response:
"The fragments of missiles in the photo published, are not related to Russian weapons. There were no strikes against targets near the border between Poland and Ukraine. The statements of the Polish media are a deliberate provocation."

#Russia spent more on missiles alone today ($500m) than the entire annual GDP of Dominica or Tonga.

Meanwhile Russian Statistics Service says 22.6% of Russian households aren't connected to a sewer system, i.e. have outdoor toilets.

What a day and night, and no stopping the appalling news.

Not directly linked with the war, but another likely terrorist attack in NATO member #Turkiye.

A car bomb in #Istanbul just days after the explosion in the tourist area.

Polish journalist claims sources in #Poland's Security Service tell him what fell was "most likely the remains of a rocket shot down by the Armed Forces of #Ukraine."

https://twitter.com/MariuszGierszew/status/1592595507427545088

#Russia's invaders in the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia say there have been 4 explosions in the part held by #Ukraine.

Governor Starukh of (#Ukraine held) #Zaporizhzhia denies any rockets landing. He says air defence took down "several" Russian missiles.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

Explosions in occupied #Chaplynka according to locals.

That's in the south of #Kherson region near to the border with #Crimea. It's where #Russia has reportedly been moving some of its equipment, further away from standard artillery fire.

Just supposing there was a 100% provable deliberate attack on NATO by Russia.

Pointing no fingers, but what happens if 29 NATO members vote in favour of invoking article 5 and one uses its' veto?
Frightening!

#Russia propaganda channels pushing fakes.

An old photo is doing the rounds purporting to be #Poland moving armoured vehicles to the village where the missile came down. It's not from today, it's FAKE NEWS!

There are still contrasting opinions about what was the cause of the #PolandMissileCrisis

But this is the prevailing thought:
