#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

Here's the link to the start of yesterday's thread, for those catching up.

Overnight there were strong explosions near occupied #Mariupol.
It would seem #Ukraine has hit one of #Russia's ammo dumps.
🇺🇦advisor Petro Andryushchenko says it happened between the villages of Portovskoe, Rybatskoe and Melekino.
#RussiansGOHOME
#Russia expels 6 UK diplomats, accused of spying. The FSB says the group attended NGO meetings!
State TV Rossiya-24 published photos of the six, naming them as Jessica Davenport, Callum Andrew Duff, Grace Elvin, Catherine McDonnell, Blake Patel, Thomas John Hickson Stevinet.
Day 922 of #Russia's attempt to wipe #Ukraine from the map. As Putin become more desperate and fearful, the actions of the little Hitler and his commanders becomes even more brutal.
Thanks for joining me for another daily news🧵- all the news all the time. It's a tough job..
Please be aware, I did make some extra posts at the end of thread 921 which you may have missed, after being offline for most of the afternoon.
So here is the link for the start of Sunday's thread, scroll through at your leisure.
I was going to say "unfortunately" there is more destruction and injuries in #Ukraine, but this is not misfortune.
We all know, and expect, a permanent flow of war crimes from #Russia because no-one stops them. It's not unfortunate, it's disgraceful, that countries appease Putin
Hello again and welcome to Sunday's thread on the first day of September. This is the 32nd month which has seen fighting since #Russia chose to invade its peaceful neighbour.
All the news from, and about #Ukraine in one place, updated throughout the day, every day. It's Day 921

The big news this morning is of #Ukraine successes inside #Russia. No civilians killed, no apartment blocks hit. Just military targets, even in #Moscow region.
The Kremlin says over 150 drones were shot down in the biggest Ukraine UAV attack of the war.
Welcome to Tuesday's daily thread on #Russia's unprovoked war in #Ukraine, with all the important news in one place.
It's Day 916.
The last 24 hours have shown us maximum pressure now has to be put on the U.S. to #LetUkraineStrikeBack. Let's show Biden public-opinion demands it!
#Russia has continued to terrorise #Ukraine during the night and attacks still continue right now.
Yesterday's mammoth 15-hour assault formed most of Monday's thread, which saw an equally big 73-posts (more than one tweet every 20 mins)
Catch up here⬇️
A new week, but the same old death and destruction in #Ukraine and also in #Russia as perhaps soon it will dawn on the people of the latter it's not a good idea to launch imperialistic needless wars on innocent, peaceful neighbours.
This is THE daily thread, Day 915, let's go!
A dramatic start to Monday. We will get to that in a minute, but first I have to give you the link to Sunday's thread.
Sadly, another tragic day, as a British member of a Reuters team covering the war in #Ukraine was murdered by #Russia's missile attack
