#Russia's losses in the last 24 hours (estimated by Kyiv) show very little equipment destroyed but still insane amounts of conscripts and mobilised soldiers killed.
An explosion in #Enerhodar this morning which looks to have killed one person.
The victim was likely the driver of a waste truck, which may have been hit by an IED. #Ukraine channels reckon it's a false flag operation by #Russia's Occupiers.
Overnight shelling in #Kherson hit the popular Epicentre supermarket.
Just another civilian target from the Terrorist State.
The exiled Mayor of #Melitopol has told #Ukraine's war 'news marathon' TV programme that "all hospitals are full in all of #Zaporizhzhia region and that the invaders had to start using sports centres.
Yesterday alone 8 more KAMAZ trucks full of injured soldiers were brought in.
#Germany's government has approved the supply of 88 Leopard-1 tanks to #Ukraine.
However they may not be much use. They cannot supply enough ammunition. The shells are a different calibre to Leopard-2s and no longer manufactured.
Imagine being in #Bakhmut right now.
Such small pleasures being such joy.
It's wonderful to see the embattled locals being able to enjoy clean running water (sort of), wash clothes, take a hot shower and even get a haircut. #SlavaUkraini#BakhmutHolds
1/2 This morning I reported on an explosion in #Enerhodar with a man killed.
It's now confirmed an improvised explosive device was used and local #Ukraine patriots have claimed responsibility for the death of 'collaborator' Yevgeniy Kuzmin.
Earlier Washington confirmed that #Ukraine's latest military "shopping list" has been taken care of!
Sadly F-16s were unavailable, but everything else is supplied. The precision-guided rockets highlighted are GLSDB offering Ukraine even longer range firepower.
Nice photo from earlier today in #Kyiv.
During a break from the official business of the EU summit, President @ZelenskyyUa and President of the European Council, @CharlesMichel share a moment. Or is it @Denys_Shmyhal? They look identical😅
Canada has imposed sanctions on 16 businesses and 38 individuals, almost all involved in spreading propaganda and disinformation.
Journalists, actors and singers are among the people targeted.
#Turkey's exporting vital electronics components and machinery to #Russia despite sanctions.
The @WSJ concludes "at least 13 Turkish firms exported a total of at least $18.5 million worth of items" including at least three shipments of goods from the USA
It's Friday! The weekend approaches.
It's also the 814th day of #Russia trying to destroy #Ukraine, its language, culture and people, and over 10 years since the first invasion.
For all the news on Day 814 keep clicking back here.
No coffees for 2 days - please help if you can.
Thursday was another busy one.
A day which saw Putin humiliated, #Ukraine attack #Crimea (again) and a load of other stories and videos.
Missed any of it? Just click here and scroll through the day's news:
#Ukraine, a democratic nation, desperate to keep it that way, remains under intense pressure from #Russia, an autocracy led by a despot and indicted war criminal.
All the news all day long in one handy thread. Read on..
#StandWithUkraine
Yesterday we only really had two stories, but they were big ones.
#Putin exiling & side-lining top names from the Kremlin.
And 25 years after the #Russia apartment bombings, 13 were killed in a new attack - but who did it?
Review the news here:
Hello and welcome to Day 807 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine.
Each day documenting the news and war crimes committed by indicted war criminal Putin and his Moscow horde as the neo-imperialists try to steal more land and wipe out another culture.
Here's another daily thread...
As always, the quick link back to the starts of yesterday's thread for those who missed some, or all, of Thursday's developments.
And right at the end of the day we saw another oil target inside #Russia being hit by drones!
So confirmation of another attack on an oil refinery in #Russia, the second in 2 months at this partuicular site.
Pershiy Zavod is the largest refinery in the region - the main complex for the processing of commercial oil and gas condensate, and the capacity is 1.2m tons/yr
Day 803 of #Russia's full invasion continues. The war criminals are super confident, tossing away lives of the plebs and useful idiots from Asia, Africa + the Americas.
But #Ukraine fights hard for its existence and supplies filter through to the frontlines.
This is the daily🧵
Today is a holiday in most of the UK, so I allowed myself a later start (no school run!)
Coming up news of #Ukraine hitting a Rusdian boat...
But first the link to yesterday's thread, which turned out to be quite busy.
Many across Europe celebrate a holiday today, the first day of May.
In normal times in #Ukraine it would be a big celebration, with Labour Day followed by Easter and Remembrance/Victory Day. But these are far from normal times. No respite from war. Welcome to the daily thread:
Tuesday saw #Russia's world bring more death to #Kharkiv and to #Odesa for the second time in two days - a video proving the sickening cluster bomb attack on the people the day before.
