This is Day 347 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine and my 347th Daily Thread.

Welcome along to the place for all the news and analysis in one handy 🧵

Saturday was quiet, but here's the link in case you were busy and need a refresher:

Now for many in the #UK, today is "Happy Valley Day" - the finalé of the very popular TV series.

Actor Sarah Lancashire donated her police hat and shoulder numbers which raised over £4,000 for #Ukraine at a Halifax Ukrainian Club charity event.

This morning's Intel update from the UK is the grimmest for a while. It seems they expect #Bakhmut to fall soon.

#StandWithUkraine Image
Another 700 dead Russian soldiers according to the daily stats released by #Ukraine.

#RussiansGoHome Image
Central #Kharkiv has been hit by #Russia.

A residential building has been hit, there is a fire now.
Local Governor Sinehubov says initial investigations show the invaders attacked with a S-300 missile.

"Information about the victims and destruction is being specified."
A big hit this morning in #Druzhivka in #Donetsk too.

#Russia says it's a pinpoint strike on redeployed #Ukraine reserves who'd just arrived in the town near #Kramatorsk
It's now known at least three people have been injured in #Russia's latest attack on #Kharkiv.

A 54-year-old woman and two men aged 51 and 55 were wounded. The woman was hospitalised with a shrapnel wound, the men were treated on the spot.

Going out on a limb here with a wild guess.

Rubles? 🇷🇺💰💶

In #Kherson, firefighters have been busy.

More incendiary weapons were used on the city overnight according to local officials

#RussiaIsATerroristState
#RussiansGoHome
For all the fuel price caps and sanctions, it's reports like this which show why #Russia isn't suffering like it should be.

#India buys more and more #Russian oil. Then resells as Indian fuel for the west.

A fourth person has been injured in #Kharkiv.
A security guard was treated for minor cuts and bruises.

The four storey residential building was hit with one missile while a 5-storey college building was also struck. Image
The first video from the scene of #Russia's attack on #Kharkiv is very upsetting.

Remarkable seeing this that no-one died. Four injuries.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine
A couple of hours ago there was a loud bang in #Belgorod. No explanation from any official in #Russia.

Now rumours are growing it was a Russian aircraft crashing. Trying to find out the truth.
In occupied #Vesele (RU: #Veseloe) 'several' explosions recorded by locals. The village is in #Zaporizhzhia region, about 20km from the oblast border with #Kherson.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia
More photos of the carnage wrought by #Russia's missiles in #Kharkiv earlier.

Five people injured as two separate S-300s hit the centre of #Ukraine's second city.

The two buildings hit were a residential block and a college.
#StopRussia ImageImageImageImage
In occupied #NovaKakhovka explosions at a yacht club.

The Maxmarine establishment is a club where #Russia's elite among the invaders are known to enjoy socialising. Could be some interesting losses...

#StopRussia
An upscale restaurant in #Kyiv, next to #Ukraine's Intelligence Dept, was bugged.

Over 10 bugs were found in the Steakhouse, which has been sealed off the now.

Police think the recordings were not directly controlled by #Russia but sold by local traitors.

More shelling this afternoon in #Kherson region.

This is #Beryslav - being hit more and more often from the other side of the river.

#StopRussia #SaveUkraine Image
Widely reported in #Ukraine tonight, confirmation @oleksiireznikov is being sacked as Defence Minister.
He'll be replaced by popular Military Intel chief Kyrylo Budanov.

Reznikov will become Minister for Strategic Industries of Ukraine, a big demotion, replacing Pavel Ryabykin.
16 children, abducted by #Russia, have been returned to #Kherson.

Delighted mothers were given the news that their children are safe. 4 months ago the youngsters were sent to #Yevpatoria in #Crimea and looked unlikely to return.

#StandWithUkraine #RussiansGoHome Image
Those who have lived under #Russia's repression continue to be the ones who respond best to tackling Russian aggression.

The Head of the Russian Orthodox Church has often been seen as an FSB operativ, and now a Swiss newspaper has proven his links with th KGB.

Patriarch Kirill's duty in the 1970s was to gain influence in the World Council of Churches.

The @FT says #Russia will begin a new offensive within 10 days, and it's likely to be in #Luhansk from Kreminna.

It's speculation based on troops massing there. The new mobiks could be moved a little south to the #Bakhmut offensive but they do have enough for a wide attack.

Tuesday 19 November 2024.
I can't quite believe we reached 1,000 days.
#Ukraine is still free, refusing to buckle to the imperialist #Russia

I'm incredibly proud to have documented every single moment, no days off, no holiday, no sickness.

UkrainaOnline encapsulated 1000 days
If you like what I do, if you've never done it before, please consider buying me a coffee on this milestone day. It took a hell of a lot of work.

Thank you to my #TeamTim

Today is Day 999 of Europe's war

It's cold in the UK today. Imagine if you didn't have heat. Not just for one day, but maybe for most of the winter Now imagine it's 10 degrees colder

If you can do that you understand what people in #Ukraine feel, or fear.
Welcome to my daily🧵
Monday and Tuesday are days of mourning in #Sumy region after an horrific attack on an apartment block.

It was the last in a long line of murders of civilians by #Russia on Sunday.

I produced the longest thread for months (over 60 posts) - catch up here
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.

Day 998 of #Russia's all out war, and Sunday 17 Nov is the day #Moscow's war criminals chose for the big missile attack on #Ukraine

It's such a difficult time for anyone associated with Ukraine. With the election of Musk/Trump, Putin's convinced terrorism will win.
Here's the🧵
Before I forget, here's the link for yesterday's thread. I know many of you like to catch up on what you've missed in #Ukraine and stories connected to the war.

#Ukraine's FM takes a swipe at #Germany's Chancellor Scholz while declaring this one of the largest air attacks.

From #Chernihiv in the north, to #Odesa in the south.
#Kharkiv in the east to #Lviv in the west. #Russia hits them all.

Hello and welcome to Day 996 of #Russia's barbaric war.

Putin's band of war criminals is throwing everything at #Ukraine's defenders for 2 months as the Kremlin is certain tRUmp will force negotiations and wants to be in the strongest position possible.

Here's the daily thread
#Russia is literally teetering on the edge of economic meltdown. If the west does not take this opportunity to ensure justice, protect borders and prosecute war criminals, historians will look back and shake their heads. They may also ask why do anything in the previous 3 years?
Anyway, let's get on with the stories of the day, although we start as ever with the link back to Thursday's thread.

It was a day which saw more problems for #Russia, more war crimes with a civilian shot dead on the street and a terrible attack on #Odesa

Very near 1000 days of war in Europe, but also we should remember that #Ukraine's allies were pretty happy to let the first invasion by #Russia in 2014 go unchecked.

Weakness, appeasement or shady deals for cash only store up and multiply problems.

Here my daily🧵on Day 995
First thing first, the link for the start of yesterday's thread.

Plenty of evidence of #Russia's pending economic collapse, especially masses of airlines. Plus rioting absconders in Russia and assassination of one of their war criminals. All in here⬇️

100% for air defence overnight

Even though it was quieter than in recent days, and air raid warnings were much shorter, #Russia still fired 59 kamikaze drones at #Ukraine

21 were shot down, 38 stopped by EW.
It seems #Belarus wasn't attacked this time by its friendly neighbour Image
