This is Day 391 of the #RussiaUkraineWar and you've found the start of another daily thread.

For all the news from Monday, click and scroll yesterday's 🧵

Monday was pretty quiet and this morning has started the same way in #Ukraine, with no major news to report overnight, with no update on the drone attack in #Crimea

So let's look at #Russia's daily losses. Almost 1,000 troops: tanks and artillery system numbers above average too
The British daily update uses polite language to effectively say "can you imagine what it's going to be like in #Russia in coming months: psychopaths, drug abusers and thieves are back on the streets, with many of them now suffering PTSD too. Good luck!"
Update from #Crimea
Occupiers have imposed a State of Emergency in #Dzhankoy.

#Russia claimed it shot down the drone last night with only slight damage to one shop and one house.

Just days after the ICC issued war crimes arrest warrants, 15 #Ukraine children have been returned home.

Ombudsman Dmytro Lubynets says in total 308 have "returned to the territory of Ukraine" however he did not say if these youngsters had been in #Russia or an occupied region.
The @nytimes obtained documents showing #China sold $12m worth of drones + accessories to #Russia since the invasion of #Ukraine

DJI drones account for almost 50% of drone imports by Russia and shipments continue though the company said it had stopped.

nytimes.com/2023/03/21/bus…
One of those Chinese drones (see previous tweet) has been shot down today over #Bakhmut.

The DJI Mavic-2 "correction" UAV was taken out by #Ukraine's border guards, though it took "It took several magazines of AK-74 ammunition"

dpsu.gov.ua/ua/news/tri-do…
Continuing the culture of fear in #Russia, they're rushing to make surrendering a crime.

State news agency RIA novosti reports anyone not offering resistance, who allows themselves to be captured, will in future face up to 10 years in jail.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
The last of the G7 leaders to visit #Ukraine has finally arrived in #Kyiv.

#Japan's PM Fumio Kishida arrived via train from Poland, and has headed straight for #Bucha.

Later he will meet with Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

#StandWithUkraine
#Zaporizhzhia has been hit with S-300 missiles.

It seems #Russia has fired from #Tokmak, about 100km away, over the other side of the frontline.

#StopRussia
Here's something very controversial.
A UK government official has admitted they will be supplying highly-controversial uranium-depleted ammunition to #Ukraine

It's highly effective at breaching tanks' armour, but has been linked to cancer.

questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-questi…
UPDATE on previous tweet:

A couple of months ago #Russia warned it would regard the use of uranium-depleted ammunition as a 'dirty bomb' and "will be harshly responded to by Moscow."

plenglish.com/news/2023/01/2…
A senior lieutenant in #Russia's army looks to have been murdered.

Investigators are checking a theory he may have been poisoned.

This happened at a military camp in Kubovaya near #Novosibirsk. The officer died within minutes of arriving at the camp.

tayga.info/181082
Musk does it again! #Ukraine's military says Starlink terminals are no gro-blocked and won't work in the Occupied zones, even though this is sovereign Ukrainian land.

The report by the Economist says Ukraine now has to use a range of other, more expensive, comms options.
On the face of it more good news for #Ukraine.

But still a distinct lack of detail or assurance.
The Five Eyes Intelligence soon worked out Ukraine would resist #Russia's initial invasion, and have now had 12 months to get top equipment to Ukraine.

As a side note, just been through notifications.

Today I went back 48 hours and saw so many replies which had not shown up when I last checked this morning. Not sure what Twitter does with the algorithm and why some are "hidden" from me for a while. This was happening pre-Musk.
A very short clip said to be from #Zaporizhzhia after the reported missile attack on the city earlier.

Still no official comment from #Ukraine officials.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
Earlier today #Russia claimed they had foiled a drone attack on an oil pipeline in #Bryansk region.

The local Governor claims it's the 4th attempt to hit the Druzhba line.

#StopRussia
A house is destroyed in #ChasivYar.

The town is near Bakhmut in #Donetsk region. If #Bakhnut falls, Chasiv Yar is likely to go the same way soon after. But #BakhmutHolds

#StandWithUkraine
It's claimed that #Ukraine destroyed a Command Post of #Russia's army in #Zaporizhzhia oblast.

Around 15 died and another 12 were injured when Ukraine's army hit the camp at Malaya Belozerka near #Vasilevka.

ria-m.tv/news/314912/po…
There were also unconfirmed reports of an attack on one of #Russia's bases in #Donetsk earlier.

#Ukraine sources claim this smoke was rising from a warehouse of equipment with reports of multiple troop deaths also.

#StopRussia
More attack drones are threatening #Ukraine right now.

Explosions reported in #Odesa - contrasting reports about whether it was a UAV being shot down or one of the kamikaze drones hitting the Shkolny military airfield in #Odessa.
This video is unverified

#StopRussia
One #Odesa channel is reporting injuries in the southern city after a drone strike.

The #Odessa-Info site says there is a severe fire after the UAV hit a 3-storey building.

#RussiaIsATerroristState

Now it makes sense... #Odesa was hit with missiles launched from #Russia's Su-35 fighter jets.
The jets took off from the Black Sea fleet.

#Ukraine's emergency services confirm here are victims but no-one died.
2/2

It's with some irony I have to report that #Russia's rockets hit a dormitory of one of the Orthodox monasteries of the Moscow Patriarchate of #Odesa.

#Odessa #RussiaIsATerroristState
#Ukraine's air defence has just announced it managed to shoot down two Kh-59 guided cruise missiles which were fired at #Odesa tonight.

#StopRussia #Odessa #RussiaIsATerroristState
Another new low for #Russia as 8 shells hit a cemetery in #Kherson region today.

Regional Head Oleksandr Prokudin revealed the details of the attack in the village of #Mykhailivka.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
I found this video on the internet. It appears new, but I'm not positive.

It's definitely in #Russia, probably a southern republic, and there are a lot of fresh graves as well as the person being buried there that day.
Confirmation from #Odesa that three people were injured in this evening's attack by #Russia

It's now known 4 Kh-59 air to surface missiles were fired, with two hitting a dormitory of a monastery.

#Odessa #SaveUkraine #RussiaIsATerroristState
#Russia's invaders say 8 people have been admitted to hospital in occupied #Kherson with "symptoms of bird flu."
Thanks to the supersleuths who follow me and managed to locate the latest Russian cemetery video to the very far East of #Russia.

@PaxLusitanica @adienis and here @nenajous all chipped in.

Quarantine, HazMat suits, face masks...

No, not the return of #Covid19 - instead #Russia's reaction to #BirdFlu in occupied #Kherson region of #Ukraine I reported a little earlier.

There are 8 suspected cases, one has been confirmed by lab tests.
Drones over #Kyiv oblast.
Air Defence seems to have shot down at least one already.

Sunday 19 January is Day 1061 of #Russia's all-out war in #Ukraine. We are also just 2 weeks away from the 4,000th day since #Moscow's initial invasion with the start of its illegal takeover of #Crimea

Welcome to another daily thread with all the news you need in one place 💙💛
Thankfully a quieter start to Sunday than yesterday, which means I get a later start today.

Saturday was all about #Russia's double ballistic attack which brought death to 2 #Ukraine cities.
Catch up on that and all yesterday's stories here⬇️

#Russia's overnight attack was less intense, but still, two attack drones slipped through the net according to #Ukraine's air defence figures.

43 of 61 UAVs were destroyed, with 15 decoy/simulation drones posing no threat and one still flying this morning. Image

Hello on Day 1054 of #Russia's terrorist campaign in #Ukraine.

I've been working for a while today, tidying up loose ends, but a late start to the daily thread - the only feed you need for all the important news and analysis.

So a lot to catch up on, let's go again!
Normally I pin the first post of the thread on my profile page, but for another 24 hours the pinned item is about the auction for a truly unique item - please check it out

So, it's even more important I post a link back to yesterday's thread. Here we are
#Ukraine's air defence team worked very efficiently last night and this morning.

#Russia launched 94 drones from four directions.
60 were shot down and 34 more 'simulators' or others were also stopped.

Some houses in #Kharkiv #Sumy and #Poltava regions were damaged by debris. Image

Christmas Day 2024. Day 1036 of the war inflicted on #Ukraine. The third Christmas for Ukrainian people to suffer. Empty chairs at the dinner table, that will never be filled again. Others at the frontline fighting for their lives and the life of the country.

It's the daily🧵
So Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah to those celebrating.

A special shout out too, to those working this special day. Also working today, emergency workers in #Ukraine after another massive missile attack

Before that, catch up on yesterday's news here
Thank you to all those who've sent me Christmas messages and bought me coffee - I will round up the sponsors' roll of honour later today.

But first the grim, but expected, news of #Russia's missile attack carried out this Christmas morning.

First the breaking news - and a third attack of the night inside #Russia.

At the end of yesterday's thread you may have read of the drone attacks on #Voronezh and #Belgorod regions. Well now it's become clear that #Novgorod has also been attacked by #Ukraine's UAVs..

Tuesday 19 November 2024.
I can't quite believe we reached 1,000 days.
#Ukraine is still free, refusing to buckle to the imperialist #Russia

I'm incredibly proud to have documented every single moment, no days off, no holiday, no sickness.

UkrainaOnline encapsulated 1000 days
If you like what I do, if you've never done it before, please consider buying me a coffee on this milestone day. It took a hell of a lot of work.

Thank you to my #TeamTim

Here's the link back to all Monday's news.
More heinous attacks. On its day of mourning, #Sumy was hit again just as the day ended, and #Odesa lost another ten residents.

Today is Day 999 of Europe's war

It's cold in the UK today. Imagine if you didn't have heat. Not just for one day, but maybe for most of the winter Now imagine it's 10 degrees colder

If you can do that you understand what people in #Ukraine feel, or fear.
Welcome to my daily🧵
Monday and Tuesday are days of mourning in #Sumy region after an horrific attack on an apartment block.

It was the last in a long line of murders of civilians by #Russia on Sunday.

I produced the longest thread for months (over 60 posts) - catch up here
Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.

An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.
