Rescuers are still working in #Dnipro, into the 4th day of sifting through the rubble. All hope of finding anyone still alive looks to have evaporated now.
The death toll remains at 40. Others are still reported to be missing.
Oleksiy @arestovych has resigned from his position of Adviser to #Ukraine's President
Arestovych apologised for his "error" of saying the #Dnipro disaster may have been caused by an anti-aircraft missile hitting the Russian Cruise rocket.
Calls for his resignation grew.
If you were with me in the early hours of the morning (or diligently read the thread since then!), you'll remember this overnight excitement in #Belgorod region.
The Governor claims only power lines were damaged.
Very little has happened today in #Ukraine, which is a good thing.
Not even politically much new to report.
The rescue operation at Dnipro concluded earlier today. These are the innocent children who lost their lives because of a Russian missile.
Warning - very emotional video.
A tearful Grandfather in #Dnipro shows his anger at #Russia after the loss of his one year old grandchild.
He wishes all Russians to suffer because of the pain they spread.
#RussiaOnFire - all the hallmarks of an insurance job
The idea of #Russia's largest 5-star hotel being in #Siberia, and of all places in non-descript #Manzherok always looked stupid.
Now, with no tourist trade, the 304-bed hotel spontaneously combusted just before completion.
Punch him in the face and say: "Excuse me, it was your air defense that didn't work, I thought it was a military base, and in general, what are you doing on NATO territory?! F*ck off!"
The pressure on #Ukraine's defenders in #Bakhmut grows each day as #Wagner and regular troops from #Russia's army pour in to the hot zone.
Speaking of being at the front, here's a cool story and a decent listen too.
Sorry there are no subtitles for the interview bit, but everyone will understand! #Ukraine #HeroiamSlava
Mayor of #Dnipro thinks the true death toll in the apartment block massacre may be over 50.
Boris Filatov thinks the mixture of cold night and burning rocket fuel may have literally removed all trace of some residents.
The official death toll from #Russia's missile is 45
Great to see #Russia's embassy in Sweden acknowledging the four occupied regions of mainland #Ukraine, and even #Crimea, as still belonging to Ukraine!
Half of June has already gone and still no resolution to the war in Ukraine. But Moscow is reaping what is sows.
This is THE daily thread for Tuesday - all the news every single day.
We've reached Day 1574
I keep garnering new followers, but X keeps taking followers away without them choosing to unfollow.
But daily views of the thread are slowly increasing again, now around 12k a day.
But we used to be at 25-30k
1/2 This morning, not just Kyiv badly attacked.
In fact, at the moment, more people are known to have died in Dnipro then the capital and that's where I'll start.
5 killed and 25 injured there plus 3 more wounded in Kamianske in the wider region.
Hello again.
Day 1552. A holiday in many countries "Whit Monday" in most, Spring holiday in others (inc UK) and Memorial Day in the U.S
But after 4 years and 3 months, memorials are still being made in Ukraine because our leaders, collectively, let them down.
Here's the daily🧵
I'm still not quite sure where Saturday ended and Sunday began - the days merged into one for me.
What I do know is there were >120 new posts over the 48 hours, that's an average one story every 24 minutes, over the entire two days.
1/2 There are new murderous attacks by Russia already today in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
Explosions have been heard in the city of Dnipro after an alert for ballistic missiles. Smoke can be seen, but no initial news of widespread damage, so hopefully air defence did its job.
Here we go again then. Day 1550 of Ukrainians wondering if they, their home, their relatives, will be bombed today.
About 16 million people have been born in the US and 15m in the EU since Russia started its full invasion of Ukraine.
Welcome to Saturday's daily🧵
Friday was a cracking thread, with vodka cheaper than a single tomato, legless Russians celebrating, Moscow claiming a college in occupied Luhansk wasn't housing Rubicon pilots and their drones and Ukraine causing more mayhem deep inside Russia.
#UkraineSanctions have been successfully employed again!
Lots of action in Russia last night, even before I closed the thread. Around 8am this morning another Ukraine strike in Perm' region, a distance of about 1700km.
Putin's gone from the expected capture of Kyiv before the end of Feb 2022 & annihilation of Ukraine's leaders & the country's culture, to begging China to keep it afloat & trying to quell dissenters at home as bombs fall!
