It's Sunday 19 February and this is the start of another thread on #Russia's illegal war.

#Ukraine continues to fight for its very existence.
This is another daily thread with all the news, all day.

Here's the link for yesterday's thread:

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.

#RussiansGoHome #StandWithUkraine
Today's update from the UK MoD is strictly in the "weekend" category. Pretty old news here for regular Ukraine watchers:
Interesting to note a news report in #Crimea - why would they suddenly need a new hospital?

In #Sevastopol there will be a blood transfusion specialist service and an oxygen station among other medical needs.

Looks like many incoming new mobilised visitors are due.
In occupied #Berdyansk there's a strong fire that looks like fuel is burning. No reports of rockets hitting there.

This is right on the southern tip of the city, jutting into the sea.

#StandWithUkraine
Heavy shelling in the centre of occupied #Donetsk today - at least three people are reported to be injured.

The prosecutor's office caught fire and residential buildings and a library were also hit.

#DonetskIsUkraine
A lot of damage to residential areas is reported by Occupiers in #Donetsk.

Some #Ukraine channels are saying it's a provocation and #Russia is firing on its "own", but there's no proof either way yet.

#RussiansGoHome
In #Kramatorsk two missiles have hit.

A film crew of FREEDOM TV witnessed of the arrival. Thick smoke rises in the city now.

#DonetskIsUkraine #SaveUkraine
More thick smoke in an occupied are of #Ukraine.

This is in #Tavriisk, in the Russian controlled part of #Kherson region, near Kakovka.

#KhersonIsUkraine #StopRussia
#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.

#RussiaOnFire

A large blaze earlier today in the #Penza region.

This time a furniture factory burned down in the city of #Kuznetsk. No injuries reported.

thx @CarolynnePries1
#Ukraine has accused #Russia of blocking the rotation of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) experts at the #Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in occupied #Enerhodar.

#StopRussia

#Kherson was once again hit by incendiary weapons tonight.

Chat sites are full of videos like this. In a populated area these sort of thermite munitions are outlawed.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
The new Prime Minister of #Moldova has called for the puppet #Russia controlled 'state' of #Transnistria to be demilitarised.

Dorin Recean said "it is necessary to expel Russian troops and then integrate the inhabitants of the region economically and socially."

#RussiansGoHome
In occupied #Donetsk, something is burning in the Kyivsky district of the city.

Hello on Day 810 of the war in Europe.

#Ukraine, a democratic nation, desperate to keep it that way, remains under intense pressure from #Russia, an autocracy led by a despot and indicted war criminal.

All the news all day long in one handy thread. Read on..

#StandWithUkraine
Yesterday we only really had two stories, but they were big ones.

#Putin exiling & side-lining top names from the Kremlin.

And 25 years after the #Russia apartment bombings, 13 were killed in a new attack - but who did it?
Review the news here:

I have to start today's news with all-time record numbers of losses suffered by #Russia in the last 24 hours, according to #Ukraine's figures.

1,740 invaders eliminated on Sunday and for the first time, the projected date of reaching 500,000 victims is now before June. Image

Hello and welcome to Day 807 of #Russia's war on #Ukraine.

Each day documenting the news and war crimes committed by indicted war criminal Putin and his Moscow horde as the neo-imperialists try to steal more land and wipe out another culture.

Here's another daily thread...
As always, the quick link back to the starts of yesterday's thread for those who missed some, or all, of Thursday's developments.

And right at the end of the day we saw another oil target inside #Russia being hit by drones!
So confirmation of another attack on an oil refinery in #Russia, the second in 2 months at this partuicular site.

Pershiy Zavod is the largest refinery in the region - the main complex for the processing of commercial oil and gas condensate, and the capacity is 1.2m tons/yr

Day 803 of #Russia's full invasion continues. The war criminals are super confident, tossing away lives of the plebs and useful idiots from Asia, Africa + the Americas.

But #Ukraine fights hard for its existence and supplies filter through to the frontlines.
This is the daily🧵
Today is a holiday in most of the UK, so I allowed myself a later start (no school run!)

Coming up news of #Ukraine hitting a Rusdian boat...
But first the link to yesterday's thread, which turned out to be quite busy.

So straight to the seas around occupied #Crimea where the big news happened overnight.

One of #Russia's speedboats was taken out by #Ukraine, with its Intel releasing this video.

A Magura V5 naval drone was successful near Uzaka Bay in the west of the occupied territory.

Many across Europe celebrate a holiday today, the first day of May.

In normal times in #Ukraine it would be a big celebration, with Labour Day followed by Easter and Remembrance/Victory Day. But these are far from normal times. No respite from war. Welcome to the daily thread:
Tuesday saw #Russia's world bring more death to #Kharkiv and to #Odesa for the second time in two days - a video proving the sickening cluster bomb attack on the people the day before.

All yesterday's news can be found here if you missed anything:

Overnight #Ukraine's special services has launched another successful attack on #Russia's oil industry.

Drones attacked a refinery in #Ryazan.
The local governor admits drones attacked but makes no mention of hits to the plant.

11 April 2024 - Day 778 of #Russia's war in Europe.

And Thursday's daily🧵 starts with another large scale missile attack on #Ukraine.

The air raid warning has just been switched off, but a lot of damage has been done as allies, especially the U.S. fail the Ukrainian people.
If you need to catch up on the news from Day 777, just click and scroll here for all Wednesday's news:

#StandWithUkraine

Welcome to Sunday morning.
I'm starting early for the daily thread on Day 760 of #Russia's full invasion of its peaceful and sovereign neighbour #Ukraine.

There is a big danger of another missile attack from Russian aircraft. Follow for all the news all day (and night!)
It proved another marathon thread (almost 70 posts) on Saturday with the consequences of the #Kransogorsk terrorist attack dominating the agenda.

Playing catch-up? Click and scroll from the start, right here:
Across #Ukraine, millions are on tenterhooks. Anyone asleep will soon be woken by air alarms, with monitors sensing launches of cruise missiles from #Russian planes.

Meanwhile attack drones are also causing problems. Explosions recently in #Lviv but these seem to be air defence
