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

@haynesdeborah

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.

@antonioguterres

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.

@continentaltire

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.

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🧵

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2019692372788220042?s=20

Yesterday started with a supposed assassination attempt on another very senior Russian soldier.

A load of other great stories too, including the start of the overnight attack on Ukraine's remaining energy facilities. Catch up on what you missed here:

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2019692372788220042?s=20

Having seen around 200 attack drones flying at the height of Russia's attack tonight, there are now around half that.

Day 1444 of Russia's merciless war has begun with the invaders losing another Lieutenant General - has Ukraine's special services struck again?

Detail on all the stories, all day, every day in my daily thread. Let's Go!

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2019326782898598377?s=20

Thursday's thread included the release of a relatively small number of POWs - but finally some Azov fighters were freed.

And double delight for Ukraine tennis fans, to offset a little of the pain of more Russian attacks.
If you missed anything, click⬇️

So, Russia's reporting (which doesn't necessarily make it true) that one of the most senior Generals has been shot.

Lt Gen Vladimir Alekseev is said to be alive and in hospital after the attack in Moscow.

What makes me a little suspicious is there are no photos from the scene.

It's Monday, the second day of the 2nd month.
Day 1440 of Russia's illegal full invasion of its sovereign neighbour.

As we approach another round of "peace talks", Russia seems to be preparing by committing an ever growing number of sickening war crimes.

This is THE daily🧵

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2017859363981938993?s=20

Yesterday was one of those days when I was repeatedly sickened by the actions of the monsters from Moscow.

The "energy truce" broken by attacking a bus of civilian miners heading to work. A medical building inc. a maternity unit hit, and more
Review here

Monday is a day of mourning in Dnipropetrovsk region following the deliberate targeting of a bus in the small town of Ternivka, near Pavlohrad.

16 people were killed. Another 14 are in hospital, seven of whom are in a serious condition.

Saturday 27 December 2025 is Day 1403 of Russia's war of choice.

The day began with missile attacks on Ukraine shortly after midnight and the terrorism continued with drone strikes, may into residential areas, with Kyiv bearing the brunt of the damage.

Here's THE daily thread

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2004512062597460422?s=20

Here's the link to yesterday's thread, which started with Russian murders, missiles on streets in Kharkiv and ended with the missile attack on Kyiv.

But there were also 'direct sanctions' taken by Ukraine on war criminals and military targets:

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2004512062597460422?s=20

News is still coming in from Kyiv especially after the awful bombardment. Mayor of the city, @Vitaliy_Klychko has just issued an update saying 28 people have been injured, with 13 hospitalised

Although the city's had the air raid warning lifted, it's still affecting Kyiv region

Christmas Eve is another milestone as we mark the latest 100 days of war

Yes, it's Day 1400 of Ukraine's fight for its existence.
Coming up:
Zelenskyy accepts peace plan but are we really nearer peace?
A twist in Moscow's 2nd car bomb in 24 hours.
And all the news yet to happen

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2003405590610215232?s=20

A very late start today - I apologise but it's Christmas time with things to do, places to go and also my body demanding enough sleep to survive!

So we start as usual with the throwback to yesterday for you to catch up, which included car bomb #2..

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/2003405590610215232?s=20

The seemingly random attack on police officers in Moscow last night, may have been a Ukraine targeted attack.

Two "traffic officers" died overnight on the same street where a Lt Gen was eliminated the day before.
Now it's reported the dead were in Ukraine and tortured civilians

This is the start of Tuesday's daily thread, with all the important news from, and relevant to, Ukraine in one handy place.

It's Day 1385 and I've still never missed a day of fact checking, analysing and reporting every aspect of the defence against Russia's illegal war.

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/1997946771297972368?s=20

Yesterday a lot of talking behind the scenes, but politicians were broadly tight-lipped on progress.

Russia did make more small gains on the frontline, but we also found a cat with burned whiskers + how Russian pilots' head-tennis went disastrously wrong

https://x.com/TWMCLtd/status/1997946771297972368?s=20

Pres Zelenskyy's whirlwind tour continues, arriving in Rome this morning to meet the Pope at Castle Gandolfo.

At Villa Barberini, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was welcomed by the vice-regent of the papal household, Augustinian Father Edward Daniang Daleng.
