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.

Hello again, thanks for visiting my Ukraine thread on Day 1353

Views/likes are down on both sites I post on: possible war fatigue

It's exactly what Putin wants from the world - to wear us down so we accept a deal to stop the killing
This will embolden Putin & hasten war v NATO
Here's the link for Thursday's thread.
It was a day which saw Ukraine inflict a fair amount of damage on Russia's energy sector and the crisis is nearing for Putin as it cannot export oil.

The energy crisis for Ukraine is about people surviving winter:
I'll start with the battle for Pokrovsk, as DeepState updated the map 40 mins ago.

Zero change in the lines since yesterday.
That's excellent for Ukraine but I fear the cost.

Of course things constantly change in the grey zone but no breakthrough.
Situation today vs a week ago Image

Welcome to November, which becomes the 46th different month to see fighting in Ukraine

And yet Russia is nowhere near its aim of Kyiv in 3 days.
Indeed 1,344 days behind schedule as we start today's thread on Day 1347 of the full invasion

Please think about sending a KoFi💙💛
Friday saw a lot of damage in Russia, an attempted counter-attack in Pokrovsk, Trump blank Orbán, power cuts in Moscow and so much more.

Clicking here⬇️will take you to the start of yesterday's🧵. Scroll through, catch-up then remember to come back here
Ukraine claims to have damaged a key Russian oil pipeline at Ramenskoe in Moscow region.

Their video shows all 3 (gasoline, diesel, aviation) fuel lines of the 400km Koltsevoy pipeline blown up.

The first pic shows guards patrolling, the second shows the explosives attached..

Hello again, on Day 1346 of the war.
Russia's genocidal war, that's both the intent and the reality as Ukraine fights to keep not only democracy, independence and freedom but also to avoid its culture and language being eradicated.

This is THE daily thread. Happy Hallowe'en
Due to various different events, I am still awake & instead of adding to y'day's thread, I thought it best to start a new one, then get some sleep.

First, the link for Thursday's🧵which started with Russia's mass missile attack but ended with🇺🇦 attacking
A quick reminder the first serious blow struck by Ukraine's long range weapons, came in Oryol.

A power plant was struck, though Russia told its people it was only drone debris (again)

Russia will not stop until it's stopped.
The war ends the moment Russia leaves.
Russia lies repeatedly (we won't invade Ukraine, we didn't kill Litvinenko, didn't kill 300 on MH17, didn't use Novichok in the UK etc etc)

We MUST NOT trust Putin.

Day 1345. Here's my daily thread
It's proved a very difficult morning for Ukraine, especially in the west. Russia tried to ensure misery and destruction, hits everyone across Ukraine.

At dawn missiles rained down, the start of the overnight attack was covered at the end of yesterday's🧵
There has been another big attack on Ukraine's energy sector with DTEK saying thermal power plants in various regions were hit.

They say it's the 3rd massive attack on the company's TPPs in October.

Various missiles and drones were fired by Russia. Image

It's Day 1336 of Russia's full invasion, but that only started because the world didn't provide a deterrent almost 12 years ago when Putin first tested the west's response by invading Crimea

The west failed the test. Are we about to fail the biggest exam too?
It's Tim's daily🧵
There was a big drone attack on western Russia last night, with Rostov in particular feeling the heat

There was also plenty of heat again on Russia's largest gas facility, the Georgian 'government' doing Russia's fascist work, and an a tragedy in Kherson
Ukraine was subjected to 6 missiles and almost 100 attack drones overnight.

None of the 2 ballistics, or 4 S-300 missiles was shot down

Of 98 UAVs launched, 3 were still flying.
Of the remaining 95, just 58 were stopped = 61%

Russia's 37 drones and 6 missiles hit 10 locations Image

An explosive start to Day 1334 of Russia's 10-day operation to erase Ukraine from the map.

Not quite #EATP for Putin.
An early start to Sunday's thread as we have news from central and eastern Russia.

All the news, all the time, every damn day. Here we go again!
So much happened yesterday and the fireworks really started in the last couple of hours.

Do yourself a favour and have a quick skim through what you missed from Saturday's news about Ukraine's battle for survival. Incredibly only 14,000 views😳🫣

Two major hits by Ukraine this morning, way, way back, deep into Russia.

Those with me a few minutes ago will already know some of the details but we have a few more sights to show you, starting in Orenburg.

Here, locals say a gas plant has been hit by drones. Image
