Starting today with a video which came out last night, supposedly showing a snapshot of the ongoing power-battle inside #Russia's war effort. This even extending to the troops now as #Wagner's mob of mercenaries comes up again "official" Russian army troops in #Ukraine
Here are the daily losses for #Russia in its bid to obliterate #Ukraine and its people.
Numbers well down across the board, except for the two cruise missiles which were hit, though the other two landed in #Khmelbytskyi.
#Ukraine has shot down another Russian Su-25 jet.
It's the 299th plane downed in a year.
The news came in the Gen Staff evening update, saying "Ukrainian defenders shot down an enemy Su-25 aircraft, 2 Orlan-10 type unmanned aerial vehicles and a Lancet-3 kamikaze drone."
Four people have suffered wounds after shelling in #Kharkiv region today.
Two women aged 32 + 50 were hospitalised in Liptsi village.
A 45-year-old woman was injured by shrapnel in Vovchansk near #Chuhuiv, and a man aged 40 was injured during shelling of #Kruhliakivka.
I got a positive response yesterday to the photos I posted on the 9th anniversary of the start of the massacre on #Maidan in #Kyiv.
The day after the first mulitple killings of protesters in 2014, the violence continued on the 19 Feb. Again all my own photos.
An investigation's been launched in #Ukraine after a man died one month after mobilisation.
Friends of Bohdan Pokitka say he had no training and died at the front just 4 days after being sent to the contact line.
#Ukraine has accused #Russia of blocking the rotation of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) experts at the #Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in occupied #Enerhodar.
You've found the start of another daily thread and Friday is Day 1507 of Ukraine's heroic struggle to keep alive its independent statehood.
Since Bohdan Khmelnytskyi's uprising in 1648, Ukraine has never had 35 years of freedom. It's about to accomplish that, but at what cost?
All the important stories, throughout the day, every day. It's all fact-checked; I'm a real, trained journalist with vast experience and knowledge of Ukraine.
What's not to love?😆
Catch up on yesterday's thread here:
This is the beginning of the daily Ukraine thread on Day 1491.
The day started with an attack a major Russian port, which I was still reporting on during yesterday's🧵at 03:15 GMT/05:15 Kyiv
More details on that coming up.
The aerial fightback at the end of the day (start of today) came after Russia broke every record in the book for drone numbers during a cowardly attack on less protected city centres in the west of the country.
The war in Europe continues. This is Day 1445 of Russia's attempt to erase Ukraine from the map & destroy its language and culture.
The genocide continues as I type, with a massive missile attack underway.
For all the news as it happens, keep checking back. This is THE daily🧵
