Another weekend; we've reach Day 360 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine.

The daily threads keep coming to ensure you're up to date with all the important news. Already today #Ukraine has been attacked by Cruise missile attack

Details coming up on this, huge 🇷🇺deaths + #RussiaOnFire
First a link to yesterday's thread in case you missed anything, including important news from #Bakhmut at the end of Friday.

#StandWithUkraine #StopRussia

Shortly before dawn, #Russia fired 4 Kalibr cruise missiles from its Black Sea fleet.

#Ukraine says two were shot down.

However, #Khmelnytskyi has been hit.
Two people have been wounded.

#UkraineUnderAttack
No photos yet from #Khmelnytskyi in west #Ukraine, which has been hit with with cruise missile(s) this morning.

The Mayor Oleksandr Simchishin confirms 2 injured and say 10 apartment blocks and 3 educational institutions have been damaged.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #SaveUkraine
First photo from the city in western #Ukraine of the destruction wrought by a cruise missile on a Saturday morning.

A reminder two injured in the blast.

.. And a video of the damage caused to one of the multi-storey apartment blocks in central #Khmelnytskyi this morning.

#Russia fired four Cruise missiles at #Ukraine shortly before dawn.

#RussiaIsATerroristState #StopRussia #UkraineUnderAttack #SaveUkraine
Another huge total of #Russia's army killed in the last 24 hours according to #Ukraine's official figures.

Think it's the thitd 1000+ day.
Meanwhile the number of tanks desstroyed reaches 3,300.

#RussiaOnFire

In the early hours of this morning someone seems to have been smoking on the job in the city of #Ufa.

This is the Krezol chemicals factory. How sad.
Worryingly, #Russia's war bloggers have stepped up another regular false narrative around the use of chemical weapons. They did the same in #Syria, then gassed the rebels.

The latest is this "discovery" of "unknown" toxic substances fired by #Ukraine in #Vuhledar (RU: #Ugledar) ImageImageImage
Despite the fact #Russia is commiting war crimes, starting wars and is an international pariah, two Brazilian footballers have applied for Russian passports.

Zenit midfielders Malcolm + Claudinho have made no public comment yet.

#Ukraine's Nuclear Energy agency says #Russia committed "an act of nuclear terrorism" today.

Energoatom says two enemy cruise missiles flew over the South Ukrainian nuclear power plant, dangerously close to the nuclear facility and a worldwide "nuclear catastrophe"

#StopRussia Image
Another fun tale of #Russia's mobilised.

Can't really feel any sympathy for these guys who claim they were trained in artillery, then sent to #Donetsk and told they'd be infantry.

Oh, and now they are effectively blackmailed each day to avoid being sent to the front.
Today marks 8 years since the #Debaltseve massacre.

136 of #Ukraine's soldiers were killed after holding out for weeks in the #Donetsk town, against four-times greater forces, and eventually being surrounded.

And Nine year ago today #Ukraine's then President gave the order to open fire on protesters from the peaceful Maidan camp.

I was there. One morning I woke to bodies lined up outside my apartment in central Kyiv.

Two days later #Russia invaded #Crimea.

Officials in #Khmelnytskyi admit #Russia's 2nd missile hit a "military facility" in the city

Regional Head, Serhiy Hamaly confirmed the news while also giving an update on civilian victims, a man and a woman, both stable in hospital. The man was in a minibus when hit by shrapnel Image
This is said to be proof of #Ukraine destroying a new type of Russian "Grad" for the 1st time.

In the occupied part of #Zaporizhzhia, US high-precision M982 Excalibur took out the "Grad" 2B26, a modernised version of the 2B5 combat vehicle, tranferred from Ural to KamAZ chassis. ImageImage

As I mentioned earlier, it's 9 years since the start of the massacre on #Maidan. I was among the protesters in #Kyiv that night and the subsequent days as the President of #Ukraine, forced by #Putin to back down on his promise to join Europe, ordered the killing of civilians. ImageImage

My photos from 18/2/04, clockwise:
1 The #Maidan Revolution HQ had been reclaimed by the govt.
2 We brought ladders, anthing which would burn - smoke stopped the snipers
3 Govt thugs firebombed a medical centre
4 New roadblocks set up by protesters ImageImageImageImage
Don't be misled by this.
#UK is NOT giving fighter jets, really we can't.
But the strong message of support may help other nations which do have jets.

With aerial support #Ukraine can better protect tanks and defend the skies

A late start to today's thread on Day 1216 of Russia's war of choice, after another late finish due to the latest murderous attack on civilians by Putin's horde.

With all the important news, every day, this is THE best place for Accurate, Reliable, Honest analysis and reporting
Kyiv was again the target overnight, details at the end of yesterday's thread.
But a lot of important and interesting stories Sunday, including how the animal kingdom took revenge on one traitor, but more pain for Ukraine as a training ground is again hit
Zelenskyy is visiting my shores today, speaking with Sir Keir Starmer to discuss joint defence protection, which will probably see an agreement on manufacturing.

Ukraine's leader points out the hypocrisy of Russia, condemning the US strikes in Iran then hours later hitting Kyiv Image

Welcome to another daily thread - THE place for honest assessment and analysis of all the news around Ukraine and Russia.

It's Day 1214 of the full-scale war. I still have an unblemished record - every single day.

Why not show your support with a ☕️?

Russia displayed outright Nazism + Fascism on Friday.

From killing in Ukraine, more utterings from the war-criminal in chief, to locking up young women and taking legal action against small independent new sites.

8 missiles and 272 drones were fired at Ukraine overnight.

ALL Russian missiles were trained on Kremenchuk, but Ukraine claims NONE reached their targets, including 2 x Kindzhals (5 shot, 3 EW)

In addition 252 UAVs were stopped (93%)
140 being shot down, 112 stopped with EW. Image

Thursday 19 June is Day 1212 of the conflict in Europe.

Russia continues to make ground, expending its soldiers at will for a few more metres as Ukraine fights for its existence having been shamefully let down by the USA.

I'm here every single day, so here's today's daily 🧵
Wednesday saw the death toll in Kyiv rise throughout the day, ending at double the number it started at. Then later Putin cynically told journalists they only hit military targets

Elsewhere another traitor to Ukraine met his fate - click here to catch-up
Another milestone is reached.

Trump is now 150 days late in promising "peace within 24 hours" of taking office.

It's also, as @andrii_sybiha points out, 100 days since🇺🇦 agreed to an unconditional ceasefire, as tRUmp demanded.
Russia did what it always does: delay, lie, kill. Image

Tuesday 17 June 2025.

No time to waste. Kyiv is under the most immense attack.

It's Day 1210 of Russia's increasingly desperate attempt to eviscerate Ukraine and all Ukrainians.

Here's the daily thread, continuing to document the night attacks...
Just gone 04:35 in Kyiv.
A hellish night is not yet over.
Apartment blocks, student dormitories hit.
6 districts of Kyiv city damaged, plus other injuries in the wider region

Here's the link for Monday's thread with all the last half showing the chaos:
If you're just waking up, here's an idea of what's happened to Kyiv while you were sleeping.

Ukraine's capital has not slept.
Many are without homes due to Russia's ongoing war crimes and one person, an American, has lost his life during the attack. Image

Hello again. Day 1203 of Russia's genocidal war in Ukraine

Anyone with a brain slightly larger than that of a chihuahua knows it. Russian history and Putin's own words spelt it out, but peaceniks, Naziniks and idiotniks are still in denial

More proof coming up in🧵for Day 1203
Yesterday's thread lasted well over 24 hours, but nothing to be proud of.

I know I'm crazier than you, and thankfully you all have lives to live. So you will be needing the link to the start of yesterday's thread so you can catch up on what you missed..

Genocide - a short thread within a🧵
I am simply staggered governments and world organisations are too weak to acknowledge the mountain of evidence.

The recent huge missile attacks should be enough, but useful idiots are fooled by Russia's plausible deniability.

A very early start to my daily thread on Day 1202 of Russia's 3 day 'special operation' to capture Kyiv.

It's so special Putin just doesn't want it to stop!

It's another no-sleep night as I start Monday's news feed on all things Ukraine.

Thanks for your support, I rely on you
Another huge Russian attack continues as I type. It could be the biggest yet.

The attack started about half way through yesterday's thread! So catch up here if you're just waking up.

The biggest problem in Ukraine tonight has been for Dubno, in Rivne region.

Heavily attacked in the evening, but now as light bathes the town, it's even worse. All cruise missiles in Ukraine are about to hit, and 3 drones too.
