Some breaking news, we are learning about repeated explosions in #Zaporizhzhia this morning.
S-300 anti aircraft missiles again being used by #Russia to attack civilians, but monitoring groups say one exploded just after launch, before it crossed the frontline.
It's noisy.
The weather has improved in #Ukraine. But though the ground may be drying out a little on the frontline, conditions are still incredibly tough.
Kamikaze #Shahed drones launched by #Russia and heading towards #Kyiv again.
The fear is not the drones themselves any longer, but the exposure of air defence positions and potentially diminishing supplies of defensive missiles.
#Ukraine shot down 19 out of 25 drones which attacked last night.
There were 24 attack UAVs and one reconnaissance drone. In #Kyiv all were shot down, but 10 buildings and some cars were damaged by the falling debris.
In #Odesa only 12 out of 15 were hit by air defence.
A lot of #Russia's equipment and soldiers were destroyed in the last 24 hours. A good day's hunting in many of the categories.
200,000 will be reached within 3 weeks, possibly 2 weeks.
and here's the daily British update, talking about some drone attacks that almost certainly were via #Ukraine (unlike the Kremlin,probably staged attack)
Across #Zaporizhzhia region they're inspecting and starting to repair the damage.
One man was injured. Governor Yuriy Malashko says #Russia doubled its attacks, with 112 air and artillery strikes in the day, and ZP city itself was hit with an S-300 missile. #StopRussiaNow
President @ZelenskyyUa has begun his speech at The Hague in the Netherlands.
He received a warm welcome and then said "We would all like to see another Vladimir in The Hague - one who deserves to be convicted of criminal acts."
A small piece of sabotage with someone setting fire to a relay-cabinet near #StPetersburg. But this only affects electric trains to nearby Beloostrov and though most were delayed it won't affect the war effort. Better luck next time😉🇺🇦
#Russia also claims to have shot down a drone in #Voronezh region early this morning.
This is thought to be the moment the UAV started its descent.
"Rolex" Peskov is pressed into action again to make more inflammatory statements as the world slowly realises #Russia probably staged drone "attacks" on the Kremlin
Putin's mouthpiece claims the US is behind "Kyiv's attack on the Kremlin, US attempts to disown it are ridiculous"
Big problem with drink driving in #Russia and drunkenness among the military. Maybe the two combined here...
Somehow this Bastion missile complex was driven into a fence on the #StPetersburg ring road.
It was heading to the Victory Parade, a rehearsal taking place today.
The Mayor of #Odesa has been arrested. It's an ongoing case and accusations stretch back years. There's always been a lot of distrust of Gennadiy Trukhanov in pro-Ukraine circles.
Also in #Krasnodar I wonder if we have more sabotage on the rails?
Suddenly "law enforcement agencies" closed the line between the #Severskaya and #Ilskaya stations. Services to Sochi and Perm' have been delayed for hours.
Explosions in #Kyiv. It seems to be air defence, but some residents in the #Irpin district say the lights went out.
Following the altercation in the debating chamber, #Russia's Olga Timofeeva was said to be giving an interview when #Ukraine MP Oleksandr Marikovskyi brought out🇺🇦
Another Russian snatched it away but Oleksandr wasn't finished...
Two fires in #Kyiv during the drone attack on #Ukraine's capital.
I'll let the Mayor of #Kyiv say everything (translation of Telegram posts)
Every Single Day.
Ukraine's brave men and women on (or supporting) the frontline cannot switch off, so neither shall I in documenting the major events of Russia's horrific war.
As we begin a new week, it's the 1,321st Daily Thread - never missed one yet. So let's dive-in..
Well it's been lively overnight in Russia, with many reports of Ukraine's drones causing problems.
You can see photos and video from those reports at the end of yesterday's thread, which began with more daytime strikes by Moscow's war criminals...
Tuesday 30 September 2025 - it's Day 1315 of Russia's full invasion. That's 3 years, 7 months and one week of Ukraine trying to defend itself against an infinitely bigger army.
But Ukrainians have a just cause and the sum is much bigger than the parts.
Here's the daily thread:
A shorter thread yesterday, with not a lot of ground-breaking news. But still more than 30 posts, you may like to catch up on, such as Russia's moaning about its election interference in Moldova coming to nothing!
Hello again everybody. Are we ready for Day 1311 of Ukraine's defence against the all-out invasion by a Kremlin horde? I know I am, so let's go.
Documenting all the important news, and Russian war crimes, every single day - still never missed one - this is THE daily thread:
You can almost smell the weekend approaching, but first let's look back at Thursday.
Another wide variety of stories, and what a contrast. Almost record numbers of likes on BSky yet way below par number of views here on X.
Review what you missed here:
Good morning on Day 1310 of the full-scale war in Ukraine. But let's not forget Russia first invaded 11.5 years ago and the free world was too timid to defend a democracy from a tyrant, which led us to this position now after far too many wasted lives (and $)
Here's my daily🧵
Wednesday was another busy-busy day.
Too much to detail, just make sure you are up to date, but clicking and scrolling here, but remember to come back.
Russia has managed to attack railway infrastructure and some power targets overnight.
The latest is in Kirovohrad region, where 3 villages are without power after drone strikes. The city of Oleksandriya in the east of the region was heavily attacked.
There were no casualties.
It's taken an incredible effort to maintain Ukraine's independence this long, but we still need to keep pressure up and keep aid flowing.
It's a marathon effort to research & post the news, please support🙏 ko-fi.com/twmcltd
Friday's thread had the first half of Russia's attack - before that we saw Ukraine's partners tightening sanctions, and Putin sending planes in to NATO territory to lead to another Article 4 discussion.
Loads more news too, catch up here if you missed it
