#Russia's crack airborne units couldn't defend the right bank of #Kherson - will they fare better in #Donbas where #Ukraine cannot target supply lines as easily.
Here's the UK Intel report for Thursday: #StopRussia
Early, unconfirmed, reports of a strike by #Russia in #Kherson
A rocket landed in the courtyard of one of the high-rise buildings in the city, but no reports of injuries.
#Kyiv still does not have full power with many in the capital city and the wider region still without electricity.
Most of #Ukraine is back to the standard schedule of power outages and all the country's nuclear power plants will be back to normal by this evening says the govt.
#Russia watchers have long warned (ditto #China) about the country buying influence (or kompromat!) to be able to cash in later.
Is this another case and is @INTERPOL_HQ failing?
How can Russia get outrageous red notices issued yet those against blocked?
Some parents very unhappy in occupied #Sevastopol.
BEFORE #Russia's anti-LGBT+ law was passed, some schoolchildren were given this worksheet. It's entitled "Symbols of Tolerance"
The teacher may be sacked. There is zero tolerance under #Putin in the Terrorist State.
#Russia's new agencies report the illegitimate "president" of #Belarus, Lukashenko, demanding "Ukraine must stop the conflict, everything is now in its hands"
They're trying Uncle Sasha!
Just parts of #Zaporizhzhia, #Kherson#Donetsk to go plus 2 more regions to finish the job!
It's been revealed #Ukraine and #Russia had informal meetings in the #UAE last week according to Reuters
They discussed prisoner exchanges and the possibility of unblocking the export of Russian ammonia through a pipeline to Odessa.
Another government building catches fire in #Russia.
This is in the northern #Arkhangelsk region.
The blaze broke out this morning in the local HQ in Laisky Dok.
The building was evacuated and no casualties reported.
Boris Johnson's been made an honorary citizen of #Kyiv
The #Ukraine capital's city council approved the decision today: Mayor @Vitaliy_Klychko said
"@BorisJohnson has repeatedly visited - both in peace and in the most dramatic time of our struggle against the Russian aggressor."
Hello and welcome to Day 807 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine.
Each day documenting the news and war crimes committed by indicted war criminal Putin and his Moscow horde as the neo-imperialists try to steal more land and wipe out another culture.
Here's another daily thread...
As always, the quick link back to the starts of yesterday's thread for those who missed some, or all, of Thursday's developments.
And right at the end of the day we saw another oil target inside #Russia being hit by drones!
So confirmation of another attack on an oil refinery in #Russia, the second in 2 months at this partuicular site.
Pershiy Zavod is the largest refinery in the region - the main complex for the processing of commercial oil and gas condensate, and the capacity is 1.2m tons/yr
Day 803 of #Russia's full invasion continues. The war criminals are super confident, tossing away lives of the plebs and useful idiots from Asia, Africa + the Americas.
But #Ukraine fights hard for its existence and supplies filter through to the frontlines.
This is the daily🧵
Today is a holiday in most of the UK, so I allowed myself a later start (no school run!)
Coming up news of #Ukraine hitting a Rusdian boat...
But first the link to yesterday's thread, which turned out to be quite busy.
Many across Europe celebrate a holiday today, the first day of May.
In normal times in #Ukraine it would be a big celebration, with Labour Day followed by Easter and Remembrance/Victory Day. But these are far from normal times. No respite from war. Welcome to the daily thread:
Tuesday saw #Russia's world bring more death to #Kharkiv and to #Odesa for the second time in two days - a video proving the sickening cluster bomb attack on the people the day before.
All yesterday's news can be found here if you missed anything:
Welcome to Sunday morning.
I'm starting early for the daily thread on Day 760 of #Russia's full invasion of its peaceful and sovereign neighbour #Ukraine.
There is a big danger of another missile attack from Russian aircraft. Follow for all the news all day (and night!)
It proved another marathon thread (almost 70 posts) on Saturday with the consequences of the #Kransogorsk terrorist attack dominating the agenda.
Playing catch-up? Click and scroll from the start, right here:
Across #Ukraine, millions are on tenterhooks. Anyone asleep will soon be woken by air alarms, with monitors sensing launches of cruise missiles from #Russian planes.
Meanwhile attack drones are also causing problems. Explosions recently in #Lviv but these seem to be air defence
It's a bleak start to another daily thread.
Friday 22 March, Day 758 of #Rusia's full invasion, begins with an enormous attack on the power sector of the country it illegally invaded.
Large parts of #Ukraine have no power.
#USADelaysUkrainePays
This is the start of the daily🧵
24 hours ago, the day began with missile strikes on #Kyiv, attempting to hit #Ukraine's Intelligence and other key government institutions.
