If you want to see all the news from yesterday, the photos and videos and see how #Dnipro and other stories unfolded chronologically, this is the start of Saturday's thread:
1/2 There has been some confusion about the cause of the disaster in #Dnipro after Presidential adviser @arestovych suggested it may have been a knocked out missile dropping on the apartment block.
#Ukraine's Air Force Commander Mykola Oleschuk pointed out that's impossible...
2/2 The #Dnipro apartment block was hit with a Kh-22 missile, and Oleshchuk says they don't have the Air Defence systems to stop these missiles.
"210 missiles of this type have been fired over #Ukraine. Not a single one was shot down by means of anti-aircraft defence."
Work continues through the night in #Dnipro (📹TG dnepr_operativ)
The death toll has climbed by two during the night so far.
14 confirmed killed in the attack. Over 70 injured.
38 people have been rescued from the rubble, but they still search for 20 missing. #StopRussia
#Russia's Ombudswoman has accused #Ukraine of torturing Prisoners of War.
Tatyana Moskalkova published unverified videos she says were sent to her by relatives of POWs Vladislav Kovalenko + Petr Krikunov. She claims they were threatened with death unless ransoms are paid.
Spare a thought for friends & family of Chris Parry + Andrew Bagshaw. It's now 9 days since the Humanitarian volunteers workers went missing near #Bakhmut
And still no update from #Wagner four days after publishing their passports and saying one had died
As well as confirming Challenger-2 tanks, Britain has committed to sending four of the most modern Apache helicopters to help #Ukraine retain its independence and regain all its territory. Hell-Fire missiles are included in the package.
630 soldiers die in the continued illegal invasion. The majority likely to have been "worthless" convicts in the eyes of the Kremlin and military commanders.
Total 🇷🇺 army deaths over 115,000 according to Kyiv estimates
A luxury yacht owned by sanctioned Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov has "escaped" from an EU harbour.
Balkan Observer reports how the vessel "Irina VU" was 'frozen' in #Croatia due to UK, EU + US sanctions. Yet somehow it was allowed to sail to #Turkiye
A 23rd person's body has been found in the ruins of #Dnipro.
Here are some new photos from the scene taking this afternoon. Hopes of finding any more survivors are fading fast.
39 people have been saved, but after calls from concerned relatives they fear 43 are still missing.
Insane amounts of numpties, abusers, trolls, bots etc this week, especially in the last 24 hours post Dnipro.
Analysis shows about 85% of accounts started after Feb 2022. The rest a smattering of anons, others or right wing Americans. Reagan would turn in his grave at this GOP.
More bodies taken from the rubble. #Dnipro apartment block death toll now 27.
Locals organise the charity donations pouring in to help the grieving and the homeless.
#Ukraine's Southern Command, which warned of the probability of the Cruise missile attack yesterday, says there are now 16 Russian ships in the Black Sea.
The flotilla includes 6 missile carriers. They estimate over 30 Kalibr missiles are being carried.
Some #Ukraine channels still posting about holding a part of #Soledar, but these cannot be confirmed.
Meanwhile #Wagner types have been handing out medals for capture of the town which is the size of Cinderford in the UK!
Update from #Soledar, the last known member of #Ukraine's military posting about holding part of the town now admits they are fighting outside the borders of the town.
Here's a translation of the post by Robert Magyar/Madiar
The independent Baza media claims a soldier blew up 13 of his colleagues with a grenade, killing three and injuring ten.
A man from #Sverdlovsk seems to have deliberately detonated the grenade in #Bryansk among newly mobilised recruits.
Igor/Ihor - you know who you are. Thank you so much for the donation to my Ko-Fi (coffee) fund💙💛
There's no way I'm going to say this is accurate, but an official from #Ukraine's Presidential entourage claims over three-quarters of #Russia's convict recruits are now fertilising Ukraine's ground.
Win-Win for the Kremlin, saving loads on prison meals!
Plenty more damage from shelling in #Kherson today.
Another apartment block was badly damaged here as the centre felt the full force of #Russia's continuing anger over two months after they were forced out of the right bank.
Sunday 19 January is Day 1061 of #Russia's all-out war in #Ukraine. We are also just 2 weeks away from the 4,000th day since #Moscow's initial invasion with the start of its illegal takeover of #Crimea
Welcome to another daily thread with all the news you need in one place 💙💛
Thankfully a quieter start to Sunday than yesterday, which means I get a later start today.
Saturday was all about #Russia's double ballistic attack which brought death to 2 #Ukraine cities.
Catch up on that and all yesterday's stories here⬇️
Hello on Day 1054 of #Russia's terrorist campaign in #Ukraine.
I've been working for a while today, tidying up loose ends, but a late start to the daily thread - the only feed you need for all the important news and analysis.
So a lot to catch up on, let's go again!
Normally I pin the first post of the thread on my profile page, but for another 24 hours the pinned item is about the auction for a truly unique item - please check it out
So, it's even more important I post a link back to yesterday's thread. Here we are
Christmas Day 2024. Day 1036 of the war inflicted on #Ukraine. The third Christmas for Ukrainian people to suffer. Empty chairs at the dinner table, that will never be filled again. Others at the frontline fighting for their lives and the life of the country.
It's the daily🧵
So Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to those celebrating.
A special shout out too, to those working this special day. Also working today, emergency workers in #Ukraine after another massive missile attack
Day 1001 of #Russia's all out war in #Ukraine.
The genocide & attempt to wipe its neighbour from the map continues, but #Putin's increasingly desperate.
Welcome to another daily🧵
Breaking news already early this Wednesday morning.
All the news, all day (and night) every day.
Tuesday 19 November was always going to be special. Day 1,000 and what a day it proved.
Record likes and retweets, thanks to everyone who revived my faith in the T witter audience🫂
1/2 First the breaking news - and a third attack of the night inside #Russia.
At the end of yesterday's thread you may have read of the drone attacks on #Voronezh and #Belgorod regions. Well now it's become clear that #Novgorod has also been attacked by #Ukraine's UAVs..
Here's the link back to all Monday's news.
More heinous attacks. On its day of mourning, #Sumy was hit again just as the day ended, and #Odesa lost another ten residents.
Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.
An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.
