Hello and thanks for reading the first tweet in my daily thread covering the #Russia war on #Ukraine.

Sunday 27 November is Day 277 since February's invasion. To catch up on yesterday's developments you can click and scroll here:

A bold statement from Britain's Ministry of Defence in the daily update.

The UK has seldom made such outright predictions. Also worth adding #Russia has claimed total control of Pavlivka four times I think.

#StandWithUkraine
This morning a big attack by #Russia on the city of #KrivyiRih.

#Ukraine's officials are not saying much, but we do know there were two explosions at, or near, the railway station in the city in #Dnipropetrovsk region.

No photos yet.
#RussiaIsATerroristState
Also in #Dnipropetrovsk region, the usual shelling and destruction of #Nikopol.

It happens virtually every night, usually many times on the town and surrounding villages.

Here's a glimpse of today's damage. No reported casualties.

#StopRussia
#Russia's daily losses reflect the developing recent trend.

Soldiers killed going up, but little equipment destroyed.

*All stats estimated by #Ukraine.

#RussiasGoHome
Change of tack from #Hungary's PM?

Viktor Orbán, long seen as doing Putin's bidding in the EU, said last night "We need a sovereign #Ukraine so that #Russia does not pose a threat to Europe."

So, what happened?

24.hu/kozelet/2022/1…
It's been confirmed that the man who was missing following yesterday's missile strike by #Russia on #Dnipro has died.

His body was pulled from the rubble this morning.

#Ukraine's Security Services have raided another church of the Moscow Patriarch.

This time #IvanoFrankivsk in the west of the country was searched.

#StandWithUkraine
The exiled Governor of #Luhansk says "not a single house survives in Bilohorivka"

In an interview with 24tv Serhiy Haidai says it's a village in name only and it's similar throughout the front line area.

24tv.ua/rosiyani-zruyn…
What??? #Russia claims in a strike on #Dnipro it destroyed a depot where "more than 100 #HIMARS MLRS and more than 7,000 large-caliber foreign-made artillery shells were stored."

This time The Kremlin's MOD surpassed itself!🤥🤥💩

#RussiaIsATerroristState
#Russia's other big claim is that they hit "a deployment of "foreign legion" militants in #ChasivYar.

This time they say 100 foreign fighters and six armored vehicles were destroyed.
More explosions heard in #Kherson oblast this afternoon. No details yet.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
"It looks ugly, to say the least. Both for Ukrainians and our foreign partners" says Mayor of #Kyiv, @Vitaliy_Klychko.

He thinks Zelenskyy and his party are trying to undermine him by incorrectly claiming many emergency "points of invincibility" were not working in the capital.
Earlier I reported shelling in #Kherson.
The northern suburb of Stepanivka has seen damage but no reports of casualties.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia
Police in #Ukraine today released footage shot moments after missiles hit near #Kyiv earlier this week.

The waves of attack left all the country without heat and light, and also water, for many hours and took many casualties too.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
I don't always believe what I read in Newsweek, but this is at least interesting.

They claim to have seen a leaked email showing #Russia was planning to attack #Japan last year:

#RussiaIsATerroristState

newsweek.com/russia-planned…
A young woman is reported to have been killed and two more injured in #NovaKakhovka.

This has not been verified yet, but a big explosion rocked the town a short while ago.

Today is Day 278 since #Russia declared all out war on #Ukraine

Many battles have been won by those defending their homeland, but the war against Putin's hordes continues.

Every day I bring you the important news in one handy thread, starting right here⬇️
A late start today and a travel day for me, so I'll update as and when I can.

Thankfully it remains pretty quiet in terms of attacks and destruction. So not too much news the last 24 hours or so, but you can catch up on yesterday's thread here:

First, I wanted to highlight this report by #Ukraine's respected @pravda_eng

It looks at how, and why, President @ZelenskyyUa gained his own TV channel, while other oligarchs were squeezed out of the media market. This echoes my own concerns:

It's Day 276 of #Russia's full invasion of #Ukraine.
It's also Holodomor Memorial Day, commemorating those starved to death by Moscow's regime in the genocide of the 1930s.

This is the daily news thread with all the news, views and analysis on events around the illegal war...
Another fairly quiet night. Long range missile attacks by #Russia confined to outbursts every few days it seems, while artillery pounds the usual targets in southern and eastern #Ukraine

If you missed anything on Friday's news feed, scroll through here:

The #UK's daily update paints an increasingly desperate picture for #Russia.

Friday 25 November, welcome to the war daily news thread with all the updates from #Ukraine.

It's Day 275 of #Russia's illegal invasion.

Not too much happened on Day 274, but you can catch up on what you missed here:

Britain's Ministry of Defence update outlines what most of my readers will know already.

The big question is will #Russia's mobilised and their relatives rebel - especially families after their loved one's pointless deaths.

#RussiansGoHome
On Wednesday the European Parliament officially declared #RussiaIsATerroristState.

But yesterday evening they also passed a resolution against #Belarus with Lukashenka "sharing responsibility for war crimes with #Russia", calling for justice at the Hague.

9 months ago today #Russia decided to break international law and condemn hundreds of thousands to death, disability and destruction

It's Day 274 of the invasion of #Ukraine, and here's Thursday's daily thread with all the news

Yesterday's news is here:
When the elite becomes diluted...

#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.

Day 273 of #Putin's illegal war and here's the daily news thread.

Today, Wednesday, marks the completion of 9 months since #Russia's full invasion of #Ukraine

This thread's updated live throughout the day. To check what you missed yesterday, click here:

#Ukraine tonight has accused #Russia of kidnapping mayors of various mayors in #Kherson oblast.

The Interior Ministry says invaders abducted the leaders of several communities in the region and took them to the left bank of the Dnipro when they retreated.

They remain missing
It's potentially a huge day for the #EU.
The Union is today scheduled to set its price limit for #Russia's fuel.

Two questions - can they set it at a level which can hold and damage the Kremlin, and can they get all members to agree to it.

Day 272 of #Russia 4 day plan to take #Kyiv and 10 days to control #Ukraine. How's that going?

Here is another daily thread covering all the news as it happens.

Missed something yesterday? Here's the link for all Monday's news:

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine

Let's start with the daily losses as estimated by #Ukraine.

The total of #Russia's soldiers killed for Putin's egotistical and illegal dream has reached 85,000

The 100,000 figure remain on track to be hit shortly before New Year.

#RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine️
British Intelligence comes to the conclusion I wrote about four days ago when #Ukraine appeared to have struck an oil terminal on #Russia's Black Sea coast with a 'marine drone'
