Welcome to Daily Thread number 399 with all the important news of #Russia's illegal war in #Ukraine.
However don't forget that it's over 3,300 days since the first invasion of sovereign Ukrainian territory by Putin. Had the West acted decisively then this wouldn't have happened.
However don't forget that it's over 3,300 days since the first invasion of sovereign Ukrainian territory by Putin. Had the West acted decisively then this wouldn't have happened.
... and leading on from that, if we fail to act decisively now or "seek peace" on the wrong terms, we will face another war and a larger crisis a few further years down the line.
Better late than never. We must support #Ukraine until Russia stops all aggression.

It was a loud night in occupied #Melitopol with more explosions. I really believe this small city is a big prize for #Ukraine and they may be laying the ground work now - we've seen mutiple attacks in recent days.
There were reports of sounds like this in three districts.

#Melitopol is a major transport hub and if #Ukraine can break through the ZSU should be able to get all the way to the south to end #Russia's "land bridge" to #Crimea.
Melitopol also has an airfield - this is how it looked at dawn!🔥🔥🇺🇦

Must be bad if they admit it!

Their sources say the tank where the UAV was aimed, turned out to be empty so nothing exploded, though debris damaged the tank.

The attack on #Melitopol has certainly caused panic among #Russia's elite and military.

An explosion was recorded near an air base on #Crimea today.
The Occupiers had no option but to acknowledge the rising pall of smoke. Yet they again claim #Russia's air defence shot down a drone, despite a huge crater at the site.
Russia says the UAV fell into a field.

"The enemy continues its assault on Bakhmut, with partial success. However, our defenders courageously hold the city, repel numerous enemy attacks."
