This is the start of the daily 🧵for Day 386 of #Russia's war of choice in #Ukraine.

For all Wednesday's news, including US pilots volunteering for Ukraine, assassination plot against an EU figure and an unexplained fire on occupied #Berdyansk, click⬇️

I'll start today with #BakhmutHolds.
No big changes to report. #Wagner troops have advanced right into the centre, but it's constantly changing as the cattle get slaughtered and retreat.

Some #Russia channels claim #Khromove on the west of #Bakhmut is captured but not confirmed.
Speaking of slaughter of Russians, the number of invading soldiers killed in the last 24 hours tops 1,000 again. A large number of #Russia's troops died in an attack at #Nevelske 20km from #Avdiivka

High numbers of tanks + artillery systems too, plus the aircraft I noted y'day.
Oooh, the British update today is genuinely interesting and newsworthy!

I hadn't mentioned #Vuhledar (RU: #Ugledar) for a couple of days and here's why. Plus, we know now what RAAM is.

#SlavaUkraini
Worth re-tweeting this from yesterday. Yet another #Wagner cemetery has come to light.

Hopefully the spread on social media, even in #Russia itself will show people how badly the 10-day war is going as we approach day 400.

Politico thinks the US has outlined two options for #Ukraine's spring offensive, with a move east through Donetsk and then south most likely.

But the site also claims #Ukraine has also lost "upwards of 100,000" troops killed.

More explosions in #Russia's border territory of #Belgorod last night.

The Governor claims two #Ukraine missiles were shot down in the early hours of this morning. Some residents say debris fell near a thermal power plant in the city.

#StopRussia
A total of 3 people were injured in #Kherson yesterday in #Russia's regular attacks.

The invaders are said to have carried out 88 attacks, firing 413 shells from heavy artillery and "Grads". #Kherson city was hit 5 times.

This was filmed in #Bilozerka early this morning:
There was a scare on the highway near #Kyiv this morning.

A fuel tanker erupted in flames while at a gas/petrol station in #Boryspil. The lorry was carrying 10,000 litres of fuel.

Firefighters managed to stop the blaze spreading to the building or underground tanks.
More guests arriving in #Ukraine.

Today Prime Minister of #Latvia Arturs Karins arrived at #Kyiv's main railway station.

#StandWithUkraine
#Russia continues to deny a new mass mobilisation, but MobilizationNews channel has now counted at least 40 regions where registration papers have been sent out.

The Kremlin says it's just to check details are up to date, but no-one believes it. Fear is growing.

Wow, in the city of #Rostov the FSB's Border Service building is well alight.

#Russia says there was an accident in a warehouse.
Hopefully arsonists beginning the revolution.
Or maybe just careless smokers again 😉

#RussiaOnFire

The fire at the FSB building in #Rostov-na-Don is so good, you want another angle right?

No problem. Enjoy!
#StopRussia
The Pentagon has just released the video of the moment its MQ-9 Reaper drone was downed over the Black Sea.

Two of #Russia's Su-27 fighter jets do indeed spray fuel on the UAV and then the second one appears to clip the Reaper.

The Kremlin denied its jets hit the drone
#Thailand says it has concluded an extradition agreement with #Russia.

Fighting crime is great yeah. Except I wonder if the Thai people have been told in the Russian constitution they won't extradite anyone. So Thailand is being used. Who's taking the Russian rubles in Bangkok?
Curioser and curioser. This is verbatim a statement from a state news agency in #Russia:

"Law enforcement agencies are checking reports of a possible appearance of an armed group of people in one of the districts of the #Oryol region.

Now the information is not confirmed."
UPDATE from #Rostov where the latest #RussiaOnFire story has occurred.

The Emergency Services are still trying to eliminate the fire at the FSB Border Service building. They claim the blaze was started by faulty electrical wiring.

#StopRussia
Hahaha
#Russia says the sudden agreement with #Thailand has nothing to do with 1000s of young Russians fleeing the country to stay in Thailand!

They claim it will enable them to bring Russian prisoners in Thailand "home"
How many new red notices coming?

#Russia claims #Ukraine has fired 13 shells at Occupied #Donetsk in the last hour.

40km east of the city, in the villlage of #Zugres, something pretty big fell in the street. But who fired it?
#RussiansGoHome #DonetskIsUkraine
Remarkable photograph from #Kherson.

#Russia is accused of hitting the courtyard of a medical facility with fire from drones.

Thankfully, medics and patients seem to have avoided injury.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
A rocket hit #Lysychansk in #Luhansk region today. Here's the aftermath.

The town has switched hands 5 times in 8 years.

#LuhanskIsUkraine
Another occupied town clearing up this evening is #Horlivka (RU: #Gorlovka), just north of #Donetsk in the occupied zone.

#SaveUkraine #RussiansGoHome
#RussiaOnFire

A fire broke out this evening at a steel structure plant in the Leningrad region.

Emergency crews went to the village of #Fedorovskaya, about 300km east of St.Petersburg, saying there was a threat of gas canisters exploding.
In #Kyiv today a tribute to those massacred in #Mariupol

It's exactly one year since one of #Russia's worst war crimes when they deliberately bombed the city's theatre which was being used as a bomb shelter, and which had the word "deti" (children) written outside.

Day 998 of #Russia's all out war, and Sunday 17 Nov is the day #Moscow's war criminals chose for the big missile attack on #Ukraine

It's such a difficult time for anyone associated with Ukraine. With the election of Musk/Trump, Putin's convinced terrorism will win.
Here's the🧵
Before I forget, here's the link for yesterday's thread. I know many of you like to catch up on what you've missed in #Ukraine and stories connected to the war.

#Ukraine's FM takes a swipe at #Germany's Chancellor Scholz while declaring this one of the largest air attacks.

From #Chernihiv in the north, to #Odesa in the south.
#Kharkiv in the east to #Lviv in the west. #Russia hits them all.

Hello and welcome to Day 996 of #Russia's barbaric war.

Putin's band of war criminals is throwing everything at #Ukraine's defenders for 2 months as the Kremlin is certain tRUmp will force negotiations and wants to be in the strongest position possible.

Here's the daily thread
#Russia is literally teetering on the edge of economic meltdown. If the west does not take this opportunity to ensure justice, protect borders and prosecute war criminals, historians will look back and shake their heads. They may also ask why do anything in the previous 3 years?
Anyway, let's get on with the stories of the day, although we start as ever with the link back to Thursday's thread.

It was a day which saw more problems for #Russia, more war crimes with a civilian shot dead on the street and a terrible attack on #Odesa

Very near 1000 days of war in Europe, but also we should remember that #Ukraine's allies were pretty happy to let the first invasion by #Russia in 2014 go unchecked.

Weakness, appeasement or shady deals for cash only store up and multiply problems.

Here my daily🧵on Day 995
First thing first, the link for the start of yesterday's thread.

Plenty of evidence of #Russia's pending economic collapse, especially masses of airlines. Plus rioting absconders in Russia and assassination of one of their war criminals. All in here⬇️

100% for air defence overnight

Even though it was quieter than in recent days, and air raid warnings were much shorter, #Russia still fired 59 kamikaze drones at #Ukraine

21 were shot down, 38 stopped by EW.
It seems #Belarus wasn't attacked this time by its friendly neighbour Image

It's Day 994 of #Russia's all-out invasion and war-crime-spree in #Ukraine.

Every single day (not a single day off), I've been here compiling daily threads with all the important news, fact checked and analysed in one place.

Thanks for joining me on the ride. Let's go!
For the first time in 73 days #Russia had a combined missile and drone attack overnight.

All the details coming up, but first the link to the start of Tuesday's thread for those still catching up with #Ukraine news.

I'll begin the new stories though with breaking news from occupied #Crimea.

Another car bomb attack has killed a prominent invader.

In #Sevastopol, it's reported a captain of the 1st rank of the Black Sea Fleet died when an IED exploded.

Day 993 of #Russia's three-day bid to take #Kyiv.
The invaders are still mired in #Donetsk, not that far from where they started.

This is my daily thread with all the news, all the time. Please remember how much work goes into this and help if you can:
ko-fi.com/twmcltd
Monday's thread was tough, documenting horrendous attacks on #Kramatorsk #KryvyiRih #Mykolaiv and #Zaporizhzhia as well as attacks on many other places which were foiled.

But also proof of #Russia hitting its own and a happy anniversary. Catch-up here:
Monday saw an all-time record number of invaders' deaths/injuries. Today that number has been smashed.

In the last 24 hours #Russia lost another 1,950 troops says #Ukraine.

Many deaths are in #Kursk where there are suicidal assaults.
Also note 81 APC/APVs and 23 tanks. Image

Hello and a very warm welcome to Monday's #Ukraine thread, documenting all the important news (and no gratuitous gore) from the country's defiance in the face of outright fascism and war crimes from invading #Russia.

It's Day 992, another day stained with blood.
Let's go
Sunday was another very busy day with a near 50-post thread.

Unrest in #Russia
#Belarus attacked by 🇷🇺
Strikes on military targets in #Moscow + #Bryansk
Help from #France
and Ukraine hating Trump Jr being a tw*t
It's all here⬇️

First, breaking news, from #KryvyiRih

Though it may have not have sounded much, this blast was a 5-storey building being hit in the last hour.
Governor Serhiy Lysak says information about victims is being ascertained.
