The level of #Russia's losses in the last 24 hours remains in line with recent days. Another 690 killed in #Ukraine and we remain on course for 200,000 in mid-May.
Also note a very large 31 vehicle/fuel tanks.

British Intel today comments on the figures. They are slightly behind the 8-ball because as readers here will know, the trend is slightly up again. But yes, down from the insane numbers when #Russia was launching non stop attacks with cannon fodder.

Friendly 🔥 this time in #Kirov. The local police captain decided to wash a patrol car while smoking. Soon bitumen caught fire and the whole garage went up in flames including 3 patrol cars.
The anti-hero received burns to his hands trying to put out the fire.

The @FT reports that the #EU and #Japan are against a complete ban on exports to #Russia.
#USA had proposed the measure ahead of next month's G7 meeting in Hiroshima.
One has to wonder if #Russia flexing its naval muscles near Japan recently had any influence, while #Hungary...?

#Russia's MoD has accused #Ukraine of breaking the grain agreement.
It claims #Ukraine used the "grain corridor" to attack #Sevastopol yesterday (and a month before) with surface drones.
Seems the Russians are desperate to end the deal - the current one expires on 18 May.

#Ukraine's universities are booming - thanks in part to the desire to avoid a military call-up.
The Constitution allows students to defer conscription.
All student numbers are ⬆️40%, but for men aged 31-40 there's a 1,285% increase.
For men over 40 it's up 1,600%

Unconfirmed reports of a "huge hit" on what may be a local Russian military HQ in #Zaporizhzhia oblast.
Some locals in occupied #Tokmak say around 10 missiles hit and there is now frantic activity with a fleet of emergency vehicles flying around.

It's been announced that the Pope will be heading to #Hungary this weekend.
During the 3 day trip he will meet with PM Viktor Orbán and talk about #Russia's horrific war in #Ukraine.

#Russia's state RIA Novosti news agency says they're using its new T-14 tanks for the first time.
However back in January, Britain's MoD said this would be purely for propaganda and pointed out the drawbacks of deploying the new and untrusted tanks in #Ukraine.

Another cemetery of #Wagner's dead has been found.
Taiga, one of the few remaining outlets to try to report the truth in #Russia, filmed this in #Novosibirsk
They say there are 200+ graves and many of the names on the crosses have not been reported killed before.

Worth reading the translation of yet more illegal, inhumane treatment of Alexey Navalny.
He's repeatedly put in isolation on some made-up charge. He's then shown food he's paid for but not allowed to eat it. It's supposedly thrown away.
Putin's #Russia

Just three days ago I wrote here about a train on fire in #Rostov. Today another one on the other side of the country.
This was filmed at the Srednesibirskaya station in the #Talmensky district quite near #Novosibirsk.
Lack of engineers? Replacement parts?

They even manage to burn their own graves! This is #Rubtsovsk in #Altai region, less than 20 miles (c30km) from the border with Kazakhstan
Again they decided to burn dry scrub grass, but forgot to put a fire break and flames were soon seen in the town's cemetery.

#Yekaterinburg the scene of this big blaze.
It's apparently at a place which makes reinforced concrete products.
Locals heard two loud explosions. Wonder if they make "dragon's teeth"?

I'm not making this up, these are all from today.
Thanks Carolynn for finding some of these.
In #Sverdlovsk Oblast they certainly seem short of firefighters. This was daytime in the village of #Sosva but it looks like night as numerous houses burn.

There's more #RussiaOnFire, this one from #TransBaikal region.
Again remarkable negligence as grass burning went wrong, turning into the burning of a timber processing plant, then the entire village of #Balyaga!
All these regions lost 1000s in the war, presumably skilled people

Almost forgot, 25 April is Anzac Day 'down under'. 108 years since their troops first landed at Gallipoli.
This year they also honour the fallen defending democracy and freedom in #Ukraine.
