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.

#StandWithUkraine #Lithuania

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.

tagesanzeiger.ch/priester-spion…
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.

Hello and welcome to day 349 of #Russia's war of choice.

#Ukraine still defends valiantly, but the west's tardiness to act has placed them under severe pressure for the next 6 weeks until trained troops return with some new toys.

All the news in one thread, read on...
First the link to yesterday in case you were busy or just want a summary.

A lot of flim flam was written but actually you missed very little. Here's one of the shortest threads of the last 11 months so far:

#Ukraine #Russia

The clock is ticking if #Russia is to meet #Putin's 25th "deadline" (that's a guess, don't take me literally)

The little man with a big anger issue is clearly intent on taking all of Donbas before the anniversary, or 1 March latest.

British intel doesn't think they'll do it. Image

Hello again. It's Day 348 of the war. Nearing the anniversary of #Russia's illegal full invasion of #Ukraine.

Here's yet another daily thread, updated throughout the day.

#Russia's daily losses on the battlefields of #Ukraine are up again with 870 more lives sacrificed for the Tsar.

A high number of tanks destroyed in the last 24 hours too according to #Kyiv's estimates.

#RussiansGoHome #StopRussia Image
The further Russification of #Ukraine's lands continue. Any wonder Ukraine has been removing all traces of past links with Russia anywhere that freedom still exists?

Day 346 of the #RussiaUkraineWar - thanks for reading the start of another daily thread.

Today starts with news of what looks like #Ukraine strikes inside #Russia.

First though the link to Friday's thread in case you missed anything:

So, straight to the breaking news: a big fire to report in #Belgorod region of #Russia.

An oil depot is ablaze after shelling. The plant there is known to have produced metal parts for the Kerch (#Crimea) Bridge.

#StopRussia
Another short clip of the fire, which is growing by the way, in the north of #Belgorod region.

it's about 120km from the border with #Ukraine in a town called #Borisov.

No official comment yet from #Russia.

This is the start of Friday's daily thread covering all events related to #Russia and #Ukraine in the prolonged illegal war.

Day 345 - just three weeks until the anniversary of Putin's crazy and hellishly costly decision.

Updated in real time, keep checking back during the day
To support my work you can send tip offs in DMs, words of encouragement or buy me a coffee (see link in bio) - all are appreciated.

These threads take around 12 hrs a day to compile, collating, translating, verifying, editing etc.

Catch up on Thurs here:
#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.

840 in a single day dying for the new Fuhrer.

Welcome to Thurday's Daily Thread covering #Russia's war on #Ukraine

We've reached Day 344 of the conflict which Putin said would be over in 10 days, and which would have ended long ago had the current western support started 10 months ago.

But it's another bad start to the day
A fairly quiet Wednesday ended with more death with a terrorist attack on the eastern city of #Kramatorsk in the #Donetsk region.

An update on that in the next tweet, but if you missed anything, here's the link for yesterday's thread:

#StopRussia

#Russia's terrorist attack on #Kramatorsk has left 3 dead and 21 now known to be injured (the total's just been updated).

A short while ago the local council released this video detailing the 1 February attack and ending with the words "we will overcome everything together🇺🇦"

Thanks for reading the start of yet another daily thread documenting the news + crimes of #Russia's invasion of #Ukraine

Wednesday represents Day 343 of the conflict.
If you have the ability to support me, feel free to buy me a coffee (link in bio), but these threads remain free
A busy day yesterday - I will repost soon about the scandalous actions of Russia's gymnastics team.

But lots more news too, including a late announcement from the US of more military aid.

Catch up on everything that happened Tuesday right here:

I am hoping this starts a campaign to not only get the seemingly Soviet loving @gymnastics (cc @BritGymnastics) to change its stance, but also the whole @Olympics movement.

Please retweet this or the original tweet.
