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.

Hello again. Day 1203 of Russia's genocidal war in Ukraine

Anyone with a brain slightly larger than that of a chihuahua knows it. Russian history and Putin's own words spelt it out, but peaceniks, Naziniks and idiotniks are still in denial

More proof coming up in🧵for Day 1203
Yesterday's thread lasted well over 24 hours, but nothing to be proud of.

I know I'm crazier than you, and thankfully you all have lives to live. So you will be needing the link to the start of yesterday's thread so you can catch up on what you missed..

Genocide - a short thread within a🧵
I am simply staggered governments and world organisations are too weak to acknowledge the mountain of evidence.

The recent huge missile attacks should be enough, but useful idiots are fooled by Russia's plausible deniability.

A very early start to my daily thread on Day 1202 of Russia's 3 day 'special operation' to capture Kyiv.

It's so special Putin just doesn't want it to stop!

It's another no-sleep night as I start Monday's news feed on all things Ukraine.

Thanks for your support, I rely on you
Another huge Russian attack continues as I type. It could be the biggest yet.

The attack started about half way through yesterday's thread! So catch up here if you're just waking up.

The biggest problem in Ukraine tonight has been for Dubno, in Rivne region.

Heavily attacked in the evening, but now as light bathes the town, it's even worse. All cruise missiles in Ukraine are about to hit, and 3 drones too.

Day 1201 of Europe's war.
But the pre-conflict hybrid war has already been waging worldwide for years. Hacking, election interference, sabotage - we're all targeted by Russia, even if we don't all realise it yet.

Ukraine can stop the war criminal with our help.
Welcome to the🧵
Maybe Sunday will bless Ukraine with a quiet day?

Saturday was another full-on journalistic stint, catching sleep when I could.
Kharkiv shattered overnight then a daytime attack on a kids' railway.
Operation Web 2.0 & a factory hit in Russia.
It's all ⬇️

Early this morning, just before the end of the previous thread I showed the Azot chemical plant in Tula region on fire.
Not long afterwards, Ukraine hit another facility, this time in Russia-controlled 🇺🇦

This is the Hydromash factory in Melitopol' in occupied Zaporizhzhia.

Welcome to yet another daily thread covering all things Ukraine and Russia.

It's Day 1195 and the day of the latest talks between the sides in Istanbul.

But all the buzz is still about one of the most incredible and successful military attacks ever, and Russia is hurting.
Ukraine's astonishingly well planned, daring and audacious attack is front page news around the world this morning.

If somehow you don't know what I am writing about, you're in for a treat. Re-live the extraordinary day by scrolling through Sunday's🧵⬇️

First important news from Poland where the Presidential election has been won by the anti-EU, anti-Ukraine candidate, right-wing Nawrocki

Despite gaining under than 51% of the vote, the tRUmp-aligned Nawrocki can now veto any legislation passed by @donaldtusk & the liberal govt Image

Day 1194 of Putin's war, though let's remember the initial invasion came 11 years ago.

Since February 2014, not once have western sanctions or military support come close to being enough to restore justice and defeat evil.

Welcome to THE daily 🇺🇦 thread for Sunday 1 June
A new day, a new season. Summer officially started, but nothing is likely to change just yet.

Y'day's thread had some great stories, but everything paled into insignificance when justy before midnight came news of a disaster in Russia's Bryansk region:
1/5
I want to start with events in Bryansk region.
What's happened is a tragedy even if you believe all Russians are partly to blame for the war.

7 people died - five passengers on a train and 2 in a truck. 69 were injured.

The lorry crashed down when the bridge collapsed.

Another night of no sleep yet - dramatic action in Moscow.

Time to start another daily thread covering everything to do with Putin's disastrous 'operation' in Ukraine.

It's 5am in Russia and Ukraine, on Day 1190 of the war.
Let's begin...
I've still NEVER missed even one day since the start of Russia's full invasion.

But yesterday's thread ended up being one of the most lively. Another near 50-post story of the day, and if you like seeing "bavovna" in Russia, go right through to the end!
1/3
Russia says 33 drones have been shot down approaching Moscow during the night.

The biggest incident is clearly this at the Mikron micro-electronics plant in Zelenograd, in Moscow oblast...
