Day 419 of the war in Europe.
#Russia's illegal war & full invasion of #Ukraine.
The day Bunker Boy emerged from his Kremlin bunker!

Yesterday was very interesting with Wagner troops confessing war crimes, more Russian fires, collaborators + more, here⬇️

The scale of the war is difficult to comprehend for those living far away. But @SkyNews brings it to life with this report.

15% (381) of all education establishments in #Ukraine have been damaged or destroyed by #Russia in the first year.

#Russia's President Putin (or at least a lookalike) has appeared in #Ukraine's Occupied Territories.

He is said to have flown into #Kherson region to visit the "Dnepr" Command of troops and then taken a helicopter to the "East" Command in #Luhansk.

#RussiansGoHome
Britain's update concentrates on #Bakhmut', which still holds, but the MoD in London says #Russia is making "creeping advances"

#StandWithUkraine Image
Much lower figures today as #Ukraine publishes the daily losses suffered by #Russia in the last 24 hours of the war. Still another 470 Russian families will be grieving at some point in the future when they realise their relative won't be coming home.

#StopRussia Image
Yesterday I reported on the Governor of #Bryansk in #Russia describing how they'd foiled a border crossing by #Ukraine, implying soldiers tried to attack

Turns out it was a man on a bike! Unfortunately he died when hitting a mine.

#StopRussia
#Kherson has come under "massive fire" this morning.

At least six people are injured while some locals say there are dead, but that's not confirmed.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
First video from #Kherson where at least six are wounded in heavy shelling.

Most badly hit seems to be the market in the centre.
Here someone films as they try to flee one strike which shattered glass, but explosions continue as they move away.
#SaveUkraine
#Egypt has reportedly agreed to supply Ukraine with 152mm and 155mm shells.

A blow to #Russia, but it's likely Egypt is carefully playing both sides.
A drone appears to have fallen in occupied #Donetsk this morning.

This video's been published showing the UAV near school number 57 in the Kyivskyi district of the city.

#DonetskIsUkraine
Pictures emerge from heavy attacks by #Russia on #Sloviansk (RU: #Slavyansk) in the early hours of this morning.

Attack drones & rockets damaged 5 high-rise buildings, 7 houses, a security facility, a medical facility plus entertainment and business centres.
No casualties. ImageImageImageImage
Three civilians have been killed by #Russia's airstrikes in #Luhansk.

This house in the village of Novoiehorivka was hit. This is about 20km SW of #Svatove, close to the state border with #Kharkiv oblast. Image
Despite rains easing, more water from upstream means large areas of #Kyiv region are now under water.

Flooding has caused widespread damage in 3 regions of #Ukraine in the past week.

#StandWithUkraine Image
#Kherson update.

The death of one person has been confirmed after the shelling of the city centre market in Kherson.

The local governor says 7 others were injured.
#RussiaIsATerroristState ImageImageImage
President #Zelenskyy visited the front line in #Avdiivka.

The visit came hours after news of Putin's supposed visit to occupied regions, which many think was recorded at the weekend.

Avdiivka is a real hot-spot, being the closest #Ukraine held area to Donetsk and Horlivka. Image
Another investigation after a new video emerged of a Commander in #Ukraine's army hitting a subordinate.

This was filmed on 26 March in #IvanoFrankivsk
Absolutely zero surprise that #Russia rejected the appeal of @WSJ journalist @evangershkovich at a sham court hearing in #Moscow.

#Ukraine has urged the President of #Brazil to come and see for himself the truth.

"Lula" recently criticised the U.S. and the EU for seeking war not peace and alleged the war was because of "decisions made by two countries."

Peace is easy - #RussiansGoHome, problem solved Lula
More leaflets being distributed in occupied #Enerhodar, urging people to evacuate their children to Crimea.

The evacuation itself is scheduled for May 5-7 according to #Russia's invaders.

Fears of the counter-attack? Stealing more children? Or both?

#StopRussia Image
Local officials in #Irkutsk denied there was a cemetery for those killed in the war, but local journalists have found the secret burial sites.

Some relatives had been searching for their dead loved ones and only now can they grieve.

#Poland, perhaps under pressure from the #EU has agreed to end the ban on imported grain from #Ukraine.

Warsaw has agreed to end the embargo in just over 3 days, on Thursday night.

#StandWithUkraine
#Russia is banned from Basketball at the Paris Olympics.

@FIBA has stuck to its guns and continued to refuse to allow the Russians to participate because of the country's illegal war. So Russia will miss the qualifiers and cannot go to next years #Olympics.

#StandWithUkraine
Well done 'Fellas'

Less than a week ago I reported this.
Now Pernod Ricard has accounced, because of the threat of a boycott, it is withdrawing Absolut Vodka from the Russian market.

#Ukraine claims it has shot down all 7 drones fired by #Russia in #Zaporizhzhia oblast tonight.

6 #Iran made kamikaze "Shahed" UAVs were hit by Ukrainian air defence.

#StopRussia
It's reported tonight that at least one Patriot air defence system is already in #Ukraine

#Germany has officially handed over the US made system along with the missiles.

With a range of 160km, this equipment can go a long way to ending #Russia's air superiority.
#SaveUkraine
⚡️Breaking⚡️
A drone hits an Enlistment Office in the #Bryansk oblast of #Russia.

Regional governor Aleksandr Bogomaz immediately said a #Ukraine UAV attacked the Military Commissariat of #Novozybkiv. Windows were broken but no injuries.

Are they sure it's not angry Russians?

Good morning world, on Day 1076 of #Russia's genocidal war on #Ukraine

It's now 14 days since Trump's inauguration & no peace deal, but his "peace envoy" Kellogg is expected to visit both aggressor and defender soon.

Here's Monday's daily thread. All you need to be in the know
Daily🧵views were slightly up over the weekend, which is heartening as it's a critical time.

#Ukraine is starting to hurt #Russia logistically, while Putin responds by killing civilians, confident he'll soon get a Trump-pass.

Read Sunday's news here:
While #Ukraine hurt #Russia infrastructure during the night (covered at the end of last night's thread), the terrorist state still has success with its own drone attacks.

More than 11% got through 🇺🇦defences overnight, with 38 of 71 UAVs being stopped and 25 likely decoys. Image

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.
