At least three people are dead and 8 injured when cruise missiles hit a city previously almost untouched by the war..
#Russia's barrage at around 04:00 this morning saw two rockets land in #Uman in central #Ukraine.
A large apartment block was hit and some warehouses nearby.

#Ukraine says it shot down 21 out of 23 cruise missiles of the Kh-101 and Kh-555 types, as well as 2 drones.
Air defence is improved, especially with Patriots, which is probably why #Russia targets civilians in cities which have fewer defences such as #Mykolaiv yesterday + #Uman

#Russia's dead in the war may reach 190,000 tomorrow.
Today's numbers are broadly in line with recent days, though slightly lower.
Figures are estimates by #Ukraine.

Sadly, inevitably, the death toll in #Uman' has climbed significantly.
As a result of the cruise missile attack on a nine-storey residential building it's now known that 10 people died, one a 9yo child.
18 others are injured.

There were also rockets + drones launched on #Kyiv region this morning.
The only damage and injury appears to be in the small town of #Ukrainka, south of the capital. It's thought part of a downed rocket hit a tower block, with the fragment injuring a young girl.

#Russia has cancelled its own invention "Tank Olympics"
Known officially as the Army Games, the British Intel update has a cheeky swipe, saying it may have been called off because they were not likely to win this time!

Seven people have died in an attack on occupied #Donetsk.
#Ukraine channels are calling it a cynical attack by #Russia on their own, to assuage its guilt over the Uman' killings.
Of course the Occupiers blame "The Kyiv Regime"

Many of the victims in #Donetsk are thought to have been on a bus when the attack happened
Without ballistics evidence it's impossible to say which side is to blame, but previously #Ukraine has struck at night during the curfew with high precision rockets on military targets

#Iran's deadly drones use "technlogy stolen from #Germany."

Not sure whether this story in the New York Times is reassuring or scary.
A team of nuclear experts will train personnel, monitor data, deploy radiation sensors and warn of deadly radiation for #Ukraine.

#Hungary's PM Viktor Orbán was delighted the Pope was visiting the Catholic country.
But The Pontiff appears to have openly criticised his host over rising nationalism and not welcoming refugees.
