Here is the daily thread for Day 281, with #Russia now 9 months behind schedule in its plan to conquer #Ukraine & kill the democratically elected President.

Thursday's already started violently. News on the latest attack on Ukraine and all the developments in one handy thread⬇️
If you missed anything from yesterday, including evening explosions in occupied #Donetsk, here's the start of Wednesday's thread - scroll through at your leisure!

A big explosion rocked #Kherson in the early hours this morning.

A multi storey apartment block's been hit. A witness reported 6 explosions. Emergency services are still searching for possible victims.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWithUkraine
I must apologise for not being able to send individual thank yous to our top contributors to our #Ukraine fundraiser

As you know the goods were received by the troops (see photos) on the frontline in the east. They're busy and using power sparingly, but I'm trying to nudge them!
Personal news: I'm heading to #Ukraine next week. It takes more planning & is way more expensive than it used to be!

I need extra power banks + a solar panel for charging, costing £100. I'll donate it when I leave Ukraine. If you want to make a donation:

The US Ministry of Defense has concluded a deal to manufacture NASAMS for #Ukraine.

The $1.2m deal went to @RaytheonTech with the official announcement listed first on this link:

A #Ukraine state TV channel reports that #Russia's invaders ATE animals at a zoo under Occupation.

They claim soldiers from the Terrorist State entered Yampil zoo, killing and devouring bison, deer and ostriches. The troops also starved a camel and wolves.

#StopRussia
Here's the UK Intel word for Thursday:

Seems #Ukraine is lucky #Russia didn't hit the power grid in the first month of the war.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StandWIthUkraine
Today's daily losses settle in to the recent trend.

#Russia seeing another 560 of its soldiers killed if #Ukraine's figures are accurate.
All other categories below the mean for the whole war.

We will hit 90,000 dead tomorrow or Saturday
#Ukraine's Command says it's hit 2 of #Russia's warehouses and 3 military bases in the last three days.

They issued this graphic showing the spread of the strikes
The expected full eruption of #Russia's #Shiveluch volcano in #Kamchatka hasn't happened yet.

But these guys reckon an accompanying earthquake today or tomorrow is almost certain, and could cause a Tsunami for #Japan

In #Melitopol the #Ukraine Resistance movement has stepped up its work.

Posters from Partisans in the town are now becoming more threatening to #Russia's Occupiers.

#SlavaUkraini #MelitopolIsUkraine
#Ukraine's Intelligence and Security Services show materials they found during the raid on the monastery of the Moscow Patriarch in Transcarpathia in west Ukraine.

Priests there called for the "awakening of Mother #Russia" and saw literature denying Ukraine's right to exist.
My heartfelt thanks to @Tango9_Ali and Naren for their donations to help me in #Ukraine next week.

Developments in #Belarus - with the obvious fear that the country is about to invade #Ukraine.

It's known that a band of #Russia's top generals and an a mystery VIP have all flown to Belarus,
But Ukraine believes it's just a ruse to divert weapons north

#Ukraine reports another "friendly fire" massacre among #Russia's recruits.

Kyiv's Intel says 14 newly mobilised soldiers died a week ago when a shell hit their tent in Tsukury in #Kherson region.

This cannot be verified

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia
All of #Ukraine is under an air warning yet again.

It probably means #Russia's planes are active.
We hope it's not the feared missile attack from the Terrorist State's bombers at the Engels Air Base near Saratov.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
This is a "rocket cemetery" in #Kharkiv region.

Drone footage shows thousands of #Russia's missiles after being fired on #Ukraine, including cluster bombs.

They're being stored here to provide evidence of war crimes at a future tribunal.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
This video caused amusement among people in #Ukraine after the raccoon stolen by #Russia tried to bite the traitor "head" of occupied #Kherson

Saldo says he won't exchange the animal for monuments, which many hoped for "as we have all the monuments here, we moved Potyomkin."
Experts are warning #Russia is resorting to oversees terror operations and could target UK and other allies

It comes after a 2nd explosive package in #Spain in 24 hrs. Y'day #Ukraine's ambassador, today a manufacturer of weapons for Ukraine was targeted

heraldo.es/noticias/arago…
50 more #Ukraine military have been freed from captivity in the latest prisoner exchange.

More defenders of #Mariupol and #Azovstal, including men who were prisoners in #Olenivka are among the freed.

#HeroiamSlava
#Ukraine confirms what social media reports suggested for a while - #Russia's army is leaving some villages on the banks of the river #Dnipro in #Kherson.

UA Defence says most of the Russian troops still in the area were recently mobilised; most better-trained have already left.

Of course there's more shelling of #Kherson again today, and it's continuing right now too.

This is the site of one of the arrivals.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia
In #Kamyshin in the #Volgograd region of #Russia, the Soviet Union started building a hospital over 3 decades ago.

It was never built.
@CarolynnePries1 spotted that today it was demolished.

Headline is a little misleading...

Joe Biden said that for talks with #Putin to take place, the Kremlin must at least show interest in ending the war.

However, in the near future, the #USA President does not plan to talk with #Russia's leader

Nothing to see here - just some of #Russia's occupiers caught on camera stealing geese from a Ukrainian house.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
We were surprised to see @BearGrylls turn up in #Kyiv and many asked "what's he doing there?"

Well the survival expert was invited to meet the President today. They went downtown to check out one of #Ukraine's new "invincibility points" for emergency heat/power during blackouts.
Thank you so much Dorothy and @jrodwyer for your very generous support on my Ko-Fi page this afternoon, ahead of my trip to #Ukraine.

And for their tip offs my appreciation to Ali, Andy and Carolynne.
Explosions this evening in the south of #Kharkiv region.

#Russia is attacking #Chuhuiv with rockets hitting the town.

The war in Europe continues. This is Day 1445 of Russia's attempt to erase Ukraine from the map & destroy its language and culture.

The genocide continues as I type, with a massive missile attack underway.

For all the news as it happens, keep checking back. This is THE daily🧵
Yesterday started with a supposed assassination attempt on another very senior Russian soldier.

A load of other great stories too, including the start of the overnight attack on Ukraine's remaining energy facilities. Catch up on what you missed here:

Having seen around 200 attack drones flying at the height of Russia's attack tonight, there are now around half that.

Day 1444 of Russia's merciless war has begun with the invaders losing another Lieutenant General - has Ukraine's special services struck again?

Detail on all the stories, all day, every day in my daily thread. Let's Go!
Thursday's thread included the release of a relatively small number of POWs - but finally some Azov fighters were freed.

And double delight for Ukraine tennis fans, to offset a little of the pain of more Russian attacks.
If you missed anything, click⬇️

So, Russia's reporting (which doesn't necessarily make it true) that one of the most senior Generals has been shot.

Lt Gen Vladimir Alekseev is said to be alive and in hospital after the attack in Moscow.

What makes me a little suspicious is there are no photos from the scene. Image

It's Monday, the second day of the 2nd month.
Day 1440 of Russia's illegal full invasion of its sovereign neighbour.

As we approach another round of "peace talks", Russia seems to be preparing by committing an ever growing number of sickening war crimes.

This is THE daily🧵
Yesterday was one of those days when I was repeatedly sickened by the actions of the monsters from Moscow.

The "energy truce" broken by attacking a bus of civilian miners heading to work. A medical building inc. a maternity unit hit, and more
Review here
Monday is a day of mourning in Dnipropetrovsk region following the deliberate targeting of a bus in the small town of Ternivka, near Pavlohrad.

16 people were killed. Another 14 are in hospital, seven of whom are in a serious condition.

Saturday 27 December 2025 is Day 1403 of Russia's war of choice.

The day began with missile attacks on Ukraine shortly after midnight and the terrorism continued with drone strikes, may into residential areas, with Kyiv bearing the brunt of the damage.

Here's THE daily thread
Here's the link to yesterday's thread, which started with Russian murders, missiles on streets in Kharkiv and ended with the missile attack on Kyiv.

But there were also 'direct sanctions' taken by Ukraine on war criminals and military targets:

News is still coming in from Kyiv especially after the awful bombardment. Mayor of the city, @Vitaliy_Klychko has just issued an update saying 28 people have been injured, with 13 hospitalised

Although the city's had the air raid warning lifted, it's still affecting Kyiv region Image

Christmas Eve is another milestone as we mark the latest 100 days of war

Yes, it's Day 1400 of Ukraine's fight for its existence.
Coming up:
Zelenskyy accepts peace plan but are we really nearer peace?
A twist in Moscow's 2nd car bomb in 24 hours.
And all the news yet to happen
A very late start today - I apologise but it's Christmas time with things to do, places to go and also my body demanding enough sleep to survive!

So we start as usual with the throwback to yesterday for you to catch up, which included car bomb #2..

The seemingly random attack on police officers in Moscow last night, may have been a Ukraine targeted attack.

Two "traffic officers" died overnight on the same street where a Lt Gen was eliminated the day before.
Now it's reported the dead were in Ukraine and tortured civilians Image

This is the start of Tuesday's daily thread, with all the important news from, and relevant to, Ukraine in one handy place.

It's Day 1385 and I've still never missed a day of fact checking, analysing and reporting every aspect of the defence against Russia's illegal war.
Yesterday a lot of talking behind the scenes, but politicians were broadly tight-lipped on progress.

Russia did make more small gains on the frontline, but we also found a cat with burned whiskers + how Russian pilots' head-tennis went disastrously wrong
Pres Zelenskyy's whirlwind tour continues, arriving in Rome this morning to meet the Pope at Castle Gandolfo.

At Villa Barberini, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was welcomed by the vice-regent of the papal household, Augustinian Father Edward Daniang Daleng.
