Hi there. A new week, but unexpectedly the same country for me as I try to start the daily #RussiaUkraineConflict news thread.

Day 292 of #Russia's full scale war on #Ukraine

Here's the link for yesterday:

So I'm still on the same train. 15 hours after boarding. No communication from staff sadly. Hours stood in the countryside with no wifi, phone signal and for a while the train lost light, heat and power.

We are approaching the #Poland border now.
I was able to take pretty pics!
Not had chance to read the news yet. But have seen the daily losses for #Russia increase significantly following the successful #HIMARS strikes on enemy bases in #Kadiivka and #Melitopol in particular.

#SlavaUkraini #RussiansGoHome
Already I'm seeing reports of ANOTHER strike by #Ukraine on a Russian barracks in #Melitopol area.

A school in Maiske was hit with around 150 invaders staying there at the time. Deaths unknown yet.

#StopRussia
#RussiaOnFire

Yet ANOTHER shopping centre blazing near #Moscow.

This is looking like more than coincidence now. Sabotage?

It's the #Stroypark mall in Balashikha.
Not much in the British Intel update today. #Russia still thinks it can regain all four partially occupied oblasts in #Ukraine
v kontse kontsov!

At last!

Getting off the train!
One woman's died and four others have been injured in the latest rocket attacks in #Kherson city.

Several apartments in one of the high-rise buildings caught after #Russia's shelling of civilian homes in the Cotton Mill district, half way to #Antonivka

#RussiaIsATerroristState
Noteworthy news that #Putin won't be holding his traditional big "New Year" press conference before.

It will be the first time a decade that the dictator won't address the Russian nation at the holiday period.
#RussiaOnFire again!

This was filmed at the synthetic rubber factory in #Nizhnekamsk (Russia).

10,000 square meter burned.
For anyone interested in my personal travel problems,
After the 1 hour train journey from #Kyiv, I've had to book a whole new ticket home and looking at how packed Krakow airport is, with cancelled flights to UK and elsewhere in Europe, guess I'm lucky to be able bag a ticket.
By the way, about 6 inches of snow in Krakow and still snowing. Flights are landing and departing fine!
Earlier today two people were killed in the free part of #Donesk oblast.

Another 10 civilians were injured in #Hirnyk village after rockets landed in the centre of the settlement.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
The #UK may be willing to give #Ukraine longer range weapons.

Defence Secretary @BWallaceMP said he is “open minded” about giving Kyiv the weapons systems they crave, if #Russia continues to target civilian areas, adding he “constantly” reviews the situation.

#SaveUkraine
Another traitor has been hit by #Ukraine's Resistance movement in #Kherson oblast.

Vitaliy Bulyuk is supposedly a senior aide to #Russia's puppet head of the remaining occupied part of Kherson. Today he survived a car bomb in #Skadovsk, but suffered injuries.

#StandWithUkraine
#Russia is now using #Ukraine's own weapons against it. The then super hi-tech Kh-55s were voluntarily given up by #Ukraine as part of the Budapest Memorandum. That agreement to guarantee Ukrainian borders was shamefully ignored by #uk and #usa
More explosions heard in #Melitopol tonight.
2 blasts reported but exact location, or even if it is missile attack, unknown.

As regular followers will know I've long thought hitting Melitopol followed by reclaiming the city is best tacticnright now. Head south, cut supply lines
I didn't want to post anything about this earlier but while on the train earlier a huge train on another track had its cargo concealed but had Slovakian markings.

Methinks some of the Slovak gear has already artived💙💛
It will be interesting to see exactly what has been hit in Occupied #Melitopol region this evening.

A bridge linking Melitopol with Kostyantynivka is one target picked off.

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.
