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!
Welcome to Thursday's thread with all the important news on Russia's illegal war in Ukraine.
It's Day 1275 - the day Putin openly mocks Trump.
After China + India upped oil purchases, the indicted war criminal ordered his army to bomb a US company in🇺🇦
Let's begin:
Ukraine is recovering from the predicted massive overnight attack.
Russia launched more than 600 missiles and drones.
The mayhem started in the last third of yesterday's exhausting thread. If you missed it, click and scroll here:
It's Day 1274 of Ukraine's incredible defence of its people, land, culture + shielding many NATO states, next on Putin's hit-list from his long stated dream to reunite the USSR
Somehow Trump & his cults (I nearly misspelled that) seem intent on helping Putin.
Here's the daily🧵
Tuesday was another 50+ post thread, packed full of some more untold insights into Ukraine news and life, including the resurgence of Covid and a language 'foul' on the football field.
But politics and Russian atrocities are omnipresent.
Here's your link
Let me start with an unwanted shock for residents in Poltava, who were warned of a radiation threat this morning, I imagine sparking all sorts of horrific thoughts.
Thankfully, the governor says it was human error, Myrhorod should've had an air alert, not the radiation warning.
Zelenskyy's forced to be careful, but Ukraine's always been ready for the unconditional ceasefire Trump first demanded 5 months ago. So no surprise he's travelling to Washington on Monday
It's Alaska Day, or a couple of half-baked Alaskas meeting later as Russia hopes to carve up Ukraine, with Trump's approval.
That's much later on Day 1269 of Putin's war.
As I start this thread at around 02:30 GMT, 05:30 Ukraine, there is a big attack on Russia.
Let the🧵begin
In a rush to get to sleep, so let me waste no further time in giving the link to yesterday's thread.
Both X and BSky have been a bit crappy scrolling through threads. One thing you can do is click my profile and then "replies", click one + scroll up
Whoever said 7 days is a long time in politics was dead right.
An about turn from tough guy & threats to TACO queen & Putin's poodle. And the next 7 days is now set to bring another cosy meet between a felon and an indicted war criminal.
It's Day 1263 of THE Ukraine thread:
A later start to Saturday's thread because of a crazily late finish to the last🧵
Fewer than 20,000 views for the first time in weeks on such an important day🤨🤔
So much effort and so little impact some days 😢
If you're one of many to miss it, click⬇️
Day 1261 - the White House thinks the war in Ukraine is coming to an end.
Especially as the Kremlin has this morning announced Putin and Trump will meet in the coming days.
But is the war criminal just duping the US Pres again and buying more time?
Follow me & today's thread:
Much of Wednesday was taken up with the politics surrounding US envoy Wirkoff's latest chummy chat with Putin.
But then it turned dark, literally as the sun went down, but Ukraine looks to have had the better of the drone exchanges.
