The agony goes on in #Zaporizhzhia following #Russia's S-300 missile attack on an apartment block this week.
More bodies found in the remains of the shattered building. 10 people (inc a child) known to have died. Seven more people are still misssing.
8 more suffered injuries.
Wow! #Ukraine could manufacture its own German Panzer tanks.
Spiegel reports that Rheinmetall is negotiating with Kyiv over the construction of a €200m tank making factory.
I don't understand why the BBC + others are reporting #Ukraine's decision to evacuate vulnerable people from #Kupiansk. #Russia is shelling like mad. Why wouldn't they?
Also, why don't media point out Kupiansk is #Kharkiv region, which Russia doesn't claim, so why the fighting?
What is known as a "take down" piece in the Daily Mail today. They've knitted together recent reports and historic stuff to lay in to the Tsarina - Putin's one-time bit on the side rhythmic gymnast Kabaeva!
Let's play a game. Spot the undamaged building in #Mariinka, the town in #Donetsk oblast.
Oh trick question. There aren't any. This is what #Russia's world is all about. If they're not stopped they will "liberate" territories close to you soon.
State Media in #Russia released this video of a rare visit to the "frontline" by a Minister.
Defence Min Shoigu probably wants you to believe he's near #Bakhmut, but actually he's in South Donetsk, possibly near #Mariupol'
The Commander of NATO's Joint Forces in Europe says over 200,000 of #Russia's soldiers (including 1,800 officers) have been killed or wounded in #Putin's illegal war.
General Christopher Cavoli's figures likely equate to an estimate of around 70,000 deaths.
I'm posting this because it's funny but I cannot believe it. The photos look quite convincing but surely not?
The story on Ukrainian sites is that mighty #Russia has resorted to literally sticking anti-aircraft guns from boats to its light armoured personnel carriers #StopRussia
#Wagner chief Prigozhin is fighting for his political life, maybe his actual life. So he's making lots of statements to get in #Russia's media.
Today he warns #Ukraine can reclaim all the land lost, so "therefore we need to fight for Russia here and now."
This is a translation:
#Ukraine celebrates rising tennis star @marta_kostyuk reaching her first ever WTA singles final.
She beat Danielle Collins in straight sets in the ATX Open semi in Austin.
I'm delighted for Marta, who hails from #Bucha district + suffered an understandable loss of form in 2022.
1/2 The lead singer of a 1980s Russian group, and reportedly Putin's favourite singer appears to be the patient aboard a mystery air-ambulance flight
Nikolai Rastorguev is known for the group Lyube and was made an MP by Putin in 2010 and staged concerts in support of the war.
2/2 Earlier this evening, despite the EU flight ban, a "resuscitation plane" left #Frankfurt for #Moscow and returned almost immediately to #Nuremberg.
First health flight between #Russia and #Germany since @navalny upset the Fuhrer, sorry Tsar!

First heartbreaking news from #Zaporizhzhia where three more bodies have been recovered from the site of the missile attack 3 days ago.
An 8-month-old baby girl and her parents are the latest victims of #Russia's terrorism targeting #Ukraine.
#Ukraine's General Staff reports #Russia is hiding Air Defence systems in residential areas of the occupied part of #Kherson.
"In the city of Nova Kakhovka, Kherson region, the occupiers use the civilian population as a human shield" say army chiefs.
Anyone heard from @amnesty?
Firstly I'm sat in Manchester airport.
I am commentating on a Teqball tournament this weekend. That's great, and lucky for me, this one's in Dubai.
But it means I'll be incommunicado for around 8 hours today, so apologies for the coming "black-out". I will update this evening.
2 nights ago explosions were reported on Russian territory. The Kremlin said loud sounds at #Yeisk airport, across the water from #Mariupol', were training exercises.
But satellite photos prove large scale fires, though it's not known if planes were hit:
We're into day 370 of #Russia's war on its peaceful neighbour.
#Ukraine continues its existential battle for existence, but it's tough right now in #Donetsk where Russia's army keeps missing deadlines, but hopes by tomorrow's start of spring to have results.
39 individuals, 73 organisations and a bank are targeted as well as 9 collaborators from east and southern Ukraine are listed. Asset freezes may follow
The Governor of #Russia's #Belgorod region claims 3 Ukraine drones were destroyed overnight.
Vyacheslav Gladkov says "wreckage of three unmanned aerial vehicles was found. There are no casualties, but there is damage: windows are broken, cars are slightly damaged."
Hello again. It's Day 369 of the war. #Russia's 10-day war on #Ukraine that is.
Hope your week starts well. It wasn't a great start for Ukrainians with a drone attack as the new week began, but as I write no feared cruise missile attack although there is a warning as I type...
Sunday proved to be quite a newsworthy day concerning #Ukraine, meaning more work for me, including a 4 page essay for Elon Musk - still no reply yet!
