A quick update on the #Dnipro attack:

City officials now say 4 rockets hit.
The production premises of a private business were destroyed and private vehicles were destroyed.

There was a fierce fire after the missiles hit but there were no victims.
480 more Russians dying for #Putin in the last 24 hours. Sent to death on a lie about Nazis to disguise Bunker Boy's modern day imperialism.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
The #UK's MOD reckons #Russia has scrapped BTGs.
News that the hated #Wagner group of mercenaries may have suffered heavy losses...but not in #Ukraine

Evacuation helps avoid civilian casualties in #Kherson region where intense shelling continues.

The liberated area was struck 21 times in the last 24 hours.

Kherson itself bore the brunt but Dariivka, Beryslav and 9 other villages saw rockets land.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
#Russia's puppet in #Donetsk Pushilin, says #Vuhledar (RU: #Ugledar) will be captured "very soon"

There are credible reports in #Donbas about increased losses for #Ukraine, but likely #Russia is losing as many personnel.

#StopRussia
#Vuhledar in #Donetsk being fought over means only one thing of course. More senseless, needless destruction.

This video is from Vulitsa Shakhtars'ka, about 600m from the town hall, near to the arterial road on the way to Pavlivka

#SaveUkraine #StopRussia
Two events to note today: #NATO's meeting is getting underway in #Bucharest, #Romania, with some rumours they could finally agree to support #Ukraine with F-16 jets.

And later #Ukraine's first lady Olena Zelenska will address MPs in London.

#SaveUkraine
#Italy is set to nationalise the Russian owned Lukoil refinery.

10,000 jobs there are at risk if the govt does nothing by this weekend when the EU's embargo on #Russia's oil comes in to effect.

repubblica.it/economia/2022/…
The first Russian national on trial in #Norway for suspected spying, admits #Russia paid for his trip to Svalbard. But he maintains it was an annual inspection of mining operations.

Another trial, of oligarch's son Andrey Yakunin, starts today.

#Ukraine complains that #Russia is again blocking civilians from leaving the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia.

Yesterday only 20 people managed to evacuate through the checkpoint in #Vasylivka to territory controlled by Ukraine.

#RussiansGoHome
The #USA is said to be considering supplying #Ukraine the Patriot air defence system, but not fighter jets. However it's not imminent.

Washington has also promised $53m to help Ukraine cope with the energy crisis.
It will buy transformers and help to protect from power surges
After the recent raids by Intelligence and Security services in #Ukraine, two regions have voted to ban the Moscow branch of the Orthodox Church.

Deputies from #Lviv and #Vinnytsia passed the motion to outlaw the pro-Russian church activities, often linked with the FSB
#IAEA pledges to strengthen its presence at ALL nuclear power plants in #Ukraine.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Already this evening in #Kherson region, three separate reports of explosions.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
#Ukraine's Defence confirms hits on 3 Russian bases in the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia

They claim the strikes on #Tokmak #Polohy and #Basan' accounted for 50 units of equipment, an ammo depot and almost 500 of #Russia's soldiers likely to be injured, some killed.

#StopRussia
Earlier today there was a powerful explosion near #Chelyabinsk in #Russia.

Later authorities claim it was deliberate breaking of frozen ground and rocks at the Starosmolinsky quarry.

Strange they didn't warn residents in advance. No one was reportedly injured.

#RussiaOnFire?
Another horrific discovery in #Kherson. Another mass grave in land formerly occupied by #Russia.

In #Pravdyne they've found 6 bodies with hands bound, shot at close range - executed.

nytimes.com/2022/11/29/wor…
#Ukraine's flamboyant ambassador to the UN has proposed they change #Russia's name in the country to the ancient term Muscovy.

He points out countries often have different names for territories. Unsurprisingly his followers massively agree, currently 98%

#Ukraine braced for a missile attack today, which has (so far at least) not arrived.

Personally I thought tomorrow was more likely, but it's all guesswork.

Presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych says #Russia's bombers were in the air for 4+ hours, checking air defences.
President @ZelenskyyUa mentioned this news in his nightly statement.

Many tell me it's one of, if not THE, most requested items by #Ukraine's army.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
Rockets landed in #Kursk this evening.
The regional leader said 11 landed in the Sudzhansky district and blames #Ukraine.

One hit a substation and left the area without power for a while.

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:

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.

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.
