Wednesday is Day 378 of #Russia's horrific and sadistic war on its peaceful neighbour.

As always, the thread is updated throughout the day.
If you missed any #Ukraine/war news yesterday, you can catch up with a click and scroll here⬇️

A dip today in the reported deaths of #Russia's frontline cattle, as well as equipment numbers.

Artillery systems hit is slightly above the daily mean for the whole war.

Figures are #Ukraine estimates for the last 24 hours.
#RussiansGoHome
Iran proven to be supplying #Russia with loads of ammunition as well as killer drones.

Well done to @haynesdeborah and the Sky News team for this report:

news.sky.com/story/irans-al…
Not the most riveting update from London today.

But it does highlight the continuing feud between Prigozhin and Shoigu, which is boiling up nicely and will end up with one, maybe both, careers in ruin.
#StandWithUkraine
Tricky day for me to update - leaving Dubai and in the airport now. So sorry for delays, but there's not too much happening in #Ukraine right now

UN Gen Sec @antonioguterres has arrived in #Kyiv for talks about renewing the grain deal which ends soon, #Russia wants a better deal
One thing which does continue day-in, day-out in #Ukraine is de-mining

Telegram channel kyiv_polit reports that after 10 months of work, they've only made safe 2% of the landmines and other explosives left by #Russia.

Even today locals in the Buchansky district found new bombs.
International Women's Day is being celebrated in #Russia where it's a national holiday.

It's becoming less important in #Ukraine.
I particularly like these posters "I don't want flowers, I want my Ukraine."
#RussiansGoHome
Yesterday was the first day since 24 February 2022 when not a single citizen was injured or killed in #Donetsk, according to the local head of #Ukraine's administration.
In case you were wondering, #BakhmutHolds.

Bad news from #Avdiivka though where photos are being posted of the latest damage from shelling.

#DonetskIsUkraine #RussiansGoHome
#Russia has arrested the ex-mayor of #Belgorod (which borders #Ukraine).

Anton Ivanov is accused of taking bribes.
The real question is who did he fall out with and why because if they arrest officials for taking bribes there will be no mayors, no officials, no Kremlin!
#Germany's Defence Ministry says 18 German + 3 Portuguese "Leopard 2" tanks, along with brigades, will be sent to #Ukraine before the end of month.

#StopRussia
A decent read here showing one aspect of how things have changed for both #Ukraine and #Russia, especially since the hit on #Tuapse just over a week ago.

navalnews.com/naval-news/202…
Slower than it's F1 tyres, but finally Germany's @continentaltire has said it will leave #Russia.
Finally back home to quickly update on what's happened while I was airborne, and probably the first thing to report is happening now in #Georgia.

Protesters demands for legislation to be repealed within an hour were not met, so they're reportedly storming parliament in Tblisi.
Water cannons, tear gas and now rubber bullets reportedly fired in Tblisi to stop the Georgia protesters.

Huge amounts of gas in the centre, with some even leaking into the metro station and those trying to escape are still spluttering and struggling to breathe.
#GeorgiaProtests
No surprise to hear Donald Trump admit "in the worst case, I could agree that they (#Russia) seized something", i.e. let them keep illegally captured lands and be rewarded for terrorism, adding "in #Ukraine there are certain areas that are Russian-speaking."
#Ukraine's Intelligence service releases this video of its Special Forces taking out a Russian "flamethrower" while it was firing at Ukraine.

#Russia's "Solntsepek" was hit with an attack drone, but the date and location are not provided.

#StopRussia
A Russian rapper who went to the frontline in #Donetsk may have been killed.

"Ptakha" (real name David Nuriev) went to give a concert for troops. When they came under fire from #Ukraine forces, this happened.
His phone is now switched off with no communication since.
A couple of people sent me this video earlier and I did laugh out loud.

#Ukraine soldiers being surrounded on the frontline is not usually a laughing matter...
The #Ukraine soldier murdered in cold blood, has been named. Oleksandr Matsievsky was a member of the 163rd battalion of Chernihiv region

His mum knew of his death, but not the circumstance
His body was returned 3 weeks ago. Oleksandr's last words to her were "I won't surrender"
#Switzerland once again hampers the Allies' effort to arm #Ukraine.

Earlier the lower House of the Swiss Parliament rejected a proposal to ease the ban on the re-export of ammunition.

Hello again, thanks for visiting my Ukraine thread on Day 1353

Views/likes are down on both sites I post on: possible war fatigue

It's exactly what Putin wants from the world - to wear us down so we accept a deal to stop the killing
This will embolden Putin & hasten war v NATO
Here's the link for Thursday's thread.
It was a day which saw Ukraine inflict a fair amount of damage on Russia's energy sector and the crisis is nearing for Putin as it cannot export oil.

The energy crisis for Ukraine is about people surviving winter:
I'll start with the battle for Pokrovsk, as DeepState updated the map 40 mins ago.

Zero change in the lines since yesterday.
That's excellent for Ukraine but I fear the cost.

Of course things constantly change in the grey zone but no breakthrough.
Situation today vs a week ago Image

Welcome to November, which becomes the 46th different month to see fighting in Ukraine

And yet Russia is nowhere near its aim of Kyiv in 3 days.
Indeed 1,344 days behind schedule as we start today's thread on Day 1347 of the full invasion

Please think about sending a KoFi💙💛
Friday saw a lot of damage in Russia, an attempted counter-attack in Pokrovsk, Trump blank Orbán, power cuts in Moscow and so much more.

Clicking here⬇️will take you to the start of yesterday's🧵. Scroll through, catch-up then remember to come back here
Ukraine claims to have damaged a key Russian oil pipeline at Ramenskoe in Moscow region.

Their video shows all 3 (gasoline, diesel, aviation) fuel lines of the 400km Koltsevoy pipeline blown up.

The first pic shows guards patrolling, the second shows the explosives attached..

Hello again, on Day 1346 of the war.
Russia's genocidal war, that's both the intent and the reality as Ukraine fights to keep not only democracy, independence and freedom but also to avoid its culture and language being eradicated.

This is THE daily thread. Happy Hallowe'en
Due to various different events, I am still awake & instead of adding to y'day's thread, I thought it best to start a new one, then get some sleep.

First, the link for Thursday's🧵which started with Russia's mass missile attack but ended with🇺🇦 attacking
A quick reminder the first serious blow struck by Ukraine's long range weapons, came in Oryol.

A power plant was struck, though Russia told its people it was only drone debris (again)

Russia will not stop until it's stopped.
The war ends the moment Russia leaves.
Russia lies repeatedly (we won't invade Ukraine, we didn't kill Litvinenko, didn't kill 300 on MH17, didn't use Novichok in the UK etc etc)

We MUST NOT trust Putin.

Day 1345. Here's my daily thread
It's proved a very difficult morning for Ukraine, especially in the west. Russia tried to ensure misery and destruction, hits everyone across Ukraine.

At dawn missiles rained down, the start of the overnight attack was covered at the end of yesterday's🧵
There has been another big attack on Ukraine's energy sector with DTEK saying thermal power plants in various regions were hit.

They say it's the 3rd massive attack on the company's TPPs in October.

Various missiles and drones were fired by Russia. Image

It's Day 1336 of Russia's full invasion, but that only started because the world didn't provide a deterrent almost 12 years ago when Putin first tested the west's response by invading Crimea

The west failed the test. Are we about to fail the biggest exam too?
It's Tim's daily🧵
There was a big drone attack on western Russia last night, with Rostov in particular feeling the heat

There was also plenty of heat again on Russia's largest gas facility, the Georgian 'government' doing Russia's fascist work, and an a tragedy in Kherson
Ukraine was subjected to 6 missiles and almost 100 attack drones overnight.

None of the 2 ballistics, or 4 S-300 missiles was shot down

Of 98 UAVs launched, 3 were still flying.
Of the remaining 95, just 58 were stopped = 61%

Russia's 37 drones and 6 missiles hit 10 locations Image

An explosive start to Day 1334 of Russia's 10-day operation to erase Ukraine from the map.

Not quite #EATP for Putin.
An early start to Sunday's thread as we have news from central and eastern Russia.

All the news, all the time, every damn day. Here we go again!
So much happened yesterday and the fireworks really started in the last couple of hours.

Do yourself a favour and have a quick skim through what you missed from Saturday's news about Ukraine's battle for survival. Incredibly only 14,000 views😳🫣

Two major hits by Ukraine this morning, way, way back, deep into Russia.

Those with me a few minutes ago will already know some of the details but we have a few more sights to show you, starting in Orenburg.

Here, locals say a gas plant has been hit by drones. Image
