Remembrance Sunday. For all those who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect the rest of us.

We are not talking only of history. Let's remember the families currently grieving for those killed by #Russia's neo-imperialist and fascist regime.

Day 991. Here's the daily Ukraine🧵
Coming up all the news in one place, updated throughout the day.

If you missed any #Ukraine news yesterday, it was another massive thread. Catch up easily by clicking the link for the start of the thread, then scroll from there

Well that was a busy night. It's taken a while to verify all the info.

For those with me last night, I predicted it could be the heaviest drone attack ever by #Russia. It was!

Fired: 145
Shot down: 62
Stopped by EW: 67
Flew to #Moldova/#Belarus/Russia: 10
Exploded in🇺🇦: 6 Image
1/2
But let's begin a round up of overnight damage done in #Moscow where drones swarmed #Russia's capital, at first explosions were reported near Domodedovo airport

On this video you can see a secondary explosion - something flies off at 9 seconds.
Soon a warehouse was ablaze.
2/2
Obviously #Russia says no damage and no injuries... but then in the well populated town of #Ramenskoe in #Moscow region, fires couldn't be hidden and authorities admitted one injury.

This looks like the result of a drone being shot down. Russia says 32 were downed in Moscow

Meanwhile there was a coordinated attack on #Bryansk, which may have hit #Russia's 1060th logistics military unit.

The local Governor claim 14 drones were shot down, but no mention of the cause of the pretty orange glow at dawn!

Later, #Ukraine Intel confirmed the strikes.
Image
Image
Image
#Russia continues to suffer astonishing losses.
Over 3,000 more Russian lives ruined in 2 days.

In the last week 9,800 invaders have been killed or seriously wounded

Equipment losses mount too, but the 122 vehicles are largely mopeds. Even that Major-Gen died while riding one! Image
It may be awful to watch, but I make no apologies for reposting this, which needs to reach a maximum audience.

#RussiaIsATerroristState which breaks all laws, Geneva Conventions, moral codes, agreements. It always will unless confronted and defeated.

1/2
#Odesa was again heavily attacked by #Russia during the night. I reported and showed many clips last night, but some more videos released since then.
1 - the work of emergency crews
2 - the terror moments after an attack drone hit homes.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
2/2
Two people were injured in the newest attack on #Odesa.

One apartment block, 10 trading kiosks, 2 shops and various vehicles, garages etc. were damaged.

Notice how it's not even the ports (even they are civilian and not legitimate targets), #Russia targets the people. Image
Image
Image
Image
#France has pledged to give #Ukraine more Scalp missiles to strike "behind the front line" but its Defence Minister doesn't say if they are allowed to hit deep into #Russia

Also Mistral missiles on their way.

Unconfirmed reports of #Ukraine also hitting #Russia's forces in occupied #Mariupol during the night.

🇺🇦adviser to the city, Petro Andryushchenko says the invaders' lost one air defence system. At least 4 explosions were heard near the airport.

#RussiansGOHOME Image
#Russia is closing in on the significant town of #Kupiansk.

Forced evacuations have been continuing in this area of #Kharkiv region. Now all ATMs are switched off as no-one can refill them, and the last post office has been closed.
#StopRussia Image
Image
It seems #Russia's "overnight" drone attack continues into the afternoons these days.

Two more killer UAVs have been spotted heading to #Dnipropetrovsk.
In #Moldova, they reportedly discovered "an unknown drone"

It's being investigated by experts after being found in the village of #Firladeni.

As I reported last night (and earlier today), #Russia's drones veered into neighbouring countries. Image
Image
Two children are among four injured in the #Chuhuiv area of #Kharkiv early this morning.

The local council says 3 hits were recorded on this 4-storey apartment block.

The youngsters are a boy aged 10 and a 17-year-old girl. Injuries are not thought to be serious. Image
Image
Image
Image
As well as #NorthKorea's cannon fodder, ATESH claim #Russia is training more foreigners

#Ukraine's resistance group in #Crimea says they found mercenaries from #Africa + #Cuba being put through their paces at Kozachiy training ground in #Sevastopol, but there's no direct proof.
Drone debris caused relatively minor damage in #Kyiv region.

A private house burned. An outbuilding, utility room, and fence were also damaged - exact location has not been revealed. Image
Image
I could post damage every day from #Nikopol and satellite villages in the south of #Dnipropetrovsk region. It's just 8-9km across the water from #Russia's positions and gets blasted with artillery and FPV drones incessantly.

Now the invaders pick off cars and gas stations. Image

I found a solution for @BrendaWeese + others who wrote they were considering leaving the U.S.

A 4-year cruise to "escape politics" visiting 140 countries for $5,333 a month.

Some acquaintances in #California pay $3500 for a studio flat even without food, power, taxes + booze. Image
Image
Angry scenes in #Kursk where residents of #Sudzha, occupied by #Ukraine have confronted local officials.

The crowd have all lost their homes, and blame the govt and generals. One official came out to try to placate the people and even used the banned word "war"
#Bryansk update

It looks certain now that #Ukraine managed to hit ammunition and anti-aircraft missiles (also used to fire at Ukrainian cities). In addition another of #Russia's missile defence systems may have been hit.

#SlavaUkraïni Image

It was a busy night for air defence.... in #Belarus, which suffered a surprise attack by #Russia.

The Gayun monitoring service says "at least 10" UAVs flew into Belarus, some of which later turned back towards #Ukraine.

One adventurous moped went from 🇷🇺➡️🇺🇦➡️🇧🇾➡️🇺🇦➡️🇧🇾➡️🇷🇺 Image
Image
In #Russia's border town of #Shebekino, a civilian's been injured when a drone hit a tower block.

The man was injured and trapped by falling masonry on the 3rd floor. Image
Image
#Russia says it has taken complete control of #Petropavlivka in #Kharkiv region.

In the last update from DeepState the village was not under imminent threat, but it's looking now as though #Ukraine's forces have pulled back to the river to defend #Kupiansk just 5-6km away. Image
Scum.

Probably 25,000 murdered by #Russia in #Mariupol'

#DonetskIsUkraine #RussiansGOHOME

More scum.

This thick daddy's boy, chooses veterans' weekend to post this filth. Image
Oh, this is terrible... a passenger jet nearly crashed because of #Ukraine's drone attack.

Oh wait... #Russia started a war and keeps 97% of its airports open in a warzone. Idiotki Image
Image
The protests against the stolen election in #Georgia are now daily.

Today two separate marches in #Tbilisi by opposition parties united into one procession and are blocking Heroes' Square.

#StopRussia
Terrorist partner #Iran helped out #Russia today.

The big Il-76TD cargo plane, owned by sanctioned "Pouya Air" landed at #Moscow's Vnukovo airport this afternoon.

More drones, and maybe even some butter on board no doubt. Image
The death has been announced of another British soldier.

22 year old Callum Tindal-Draper, from Cornwall, was killed earlier in the week, defending #Ukraine.

news.sky.com/story/tributes…
#Moldova admits its airspace was breached by #Russia.

Of course #Moldova is not a NATO country, but the decoy drones were still not shot down.

President-elect Trump has supposedly already spoken with Putin and told him "not to escalate the situation in #Ukraine."

Sounds very much like a "positive leak" from camp Trump, so whether you believe Trump said that is up to you.

#Zaporizhzhia is under attack... first from aerial bombs and now drones.

Two explosions were heard, thought to be just outside the city. No further details yet.

#StopRussia
There are 8 attack drones in #Ukraine so far, including the one heading to #Zaporizhzhia.
Time for thank yous to my supporters, here and in the other place as @JustmeAnybody noted in the comment😏
Also one anon coffee from "MP" & generous monthly sponsorship from @MessFixing

Thanks for not giving up on #Ukraine or me.
991 Days and counting!

The #USA "will spend every dollar it has" on #Ukraine before Biden leaves office.

White House spokesman John Kirby also hinted at more aid soon "There has not been a single Ramstein meeting where there were no additional commitments. I think this can be expected again." Image
A flash was seen and blasts heard in #Dnipro a little earlier this evening.

Unsure whether it was an arrival or take down of a rocket. No damage reported so far.
In countries nearest to #Russia, pledging more support for #Ukraine is often a vote winner - they know what's at stake.

In #Norway, the right of centre party pledges to treble (military) aid for #Kyiv, NRK reports. They say it's important for Norway's security 🇷🇺 doesn't win. Image
Lost another 100 followers today. I think about 2,300 since the election.

On the up side, I already have more than 300 followers on 🔵 Sky.
I will continue here but cross-posting the entire thread at the end of each day and other highlights when I get chance.
Multiple attack drones are approaching #Mykolaiv (RU: #Nikolaev) in southern #Ukraine.

It looks like a co-ordinated attack with the mopeds converging from different directions.
#StopRussia
Explosions in #Mykolaiv region.
No more details yet.

Damage caused by the earlier attack on #Zaporizhzhia.

Local officials have still not released details yet.

At least one person injured in the drone attack.
Residential buildings have been hit.

#StopRussia #LetUkraineStrikeBack

This is the start of THE daily thread covering all things Ukraine.

Reliable, accurate information for 1124 days as Russia and its willing accomplices (Iran, North Korea and MAGA-land) try to destroy Ukraine, its culture and its democracy to make it a vassal state.

Here's the🧵
Yesterday started with shocking lies and propaganda from the White House and ended with another massive attack by Russia, knowing tRUmp and co don't mind at all.

Find all the details by clicking and scrolling here⬇️

Worryingly, Russia achieved a 17% hit rate from its overnight drone attack with 25 of 147 getting through Ukraine's air defence.

97 attack UAVs were taken down and 25 more were decoys.

Kyiv came under fire most during the night.

The war Russia inflicted on Ukraine enters Day 1120

Ukraine, a country which never invaded another, never killed anyone abroad; a fully democratic nation where only one President has ever won a second term in office.

Here's THE daily thread for Wednesday, with all the news.
Yesterday was all about the ritual humiliation of tRUmp, dished out by Putin, and the US president's brain being too rusty to realise.

I also indulged in a long sub-thread on my fears about what's happening in Washington DC.
Catch up here:

It's official. tRUmp's supposed skill at making a deal is absolutely RANK

Russia
Afghanistan
NK (North Korea)

#TraitorTrump promised a deal with his mate in NK, got nothing.
He handed the Taliban everything, got nothing.
Now, ending the war in 24 hours turned into humiliationImage

Tuesday 18 March is Day 1119 of the war in Europe

Putin, the aggressor, the war criminal, presiding over countless heinous crimes, executions, kidnapping of children, is about to be given a pass by Donald J Trump.
The despot and the wannabe talk today.

This is THE daily thread
Yesterday saw an explosive end to a day which started with mystery surrounding a Ukraine hit in Russia, and moved through the thread with some harrowing and shocking tales and scenes from Kherson.

Catch up here! #SlavaUkraïni

During the night 7% of Russia's drones defeated air defence, according to Ukraine's figures.

Kyiv says there were 64 simulator drones which fell harmlessly - I think is a record, but cannot be sure.

Another 63 were shot down, with 10 of 137 attack UAVs reaching targets. Image

Welcome to my daily thread, covering all things #Ukraine every single day since even before the first day of Russia's full invasion.

This is Day 1110 of Putin's long promised land grab - he's also pledged to reunite the rest of the USSR.

More atrocities overnight, let's begin:
For those loving people who urge me to get more sleep, you will be pleased to know there was no alarm this morning; I am refreshed and ready to tackle JD TRussia again.

A busy Friday ended with news of the awful attack in free Donetsk, catch up here:

Coming up news of a significant new oil strike in Russia. While Ukraine sticks to military targets, Putin's horde targets civilians.

#Dobropillya is a small place, but this heinous attack may go down as one of the worst of the war.

A double tap attack & cluster munitions

Today sees the completion of 3 years of full scale war unleashed by #Russia on #Ukraine.

As signs point to an end to this war relatively soon, the ONLY question which should be asked is: are you happy to reward war-criminal terrorists with land?

Here's THE daily thread:
It's Day 1096 of #Russia 's war.

If you missed anything yesterday, catch up on Saturday's news here:

The #UK is in full focus today.
As @Keir_Starmer prepares to fly to Washington, new sanctions will be unveiled tomorrow.

Foreign Sec @DavidLammy says it will be "the largest package of sanctions against #Russia since the early days of the war eroding its military machine."

Day 1083 of the war in Europe and the 1083rd of my daily threads.

Three years ago we knew #Ukraine wouldn't go down without a fight. Now, for the first time in over a year there's genuine reason for #Russia to be worried about the outcome.
Plenty to learn and from in Sunday's thread.
In #Russia, ships crashing and exploding, faking capture of a key town in #Ukraine and late at night drones attacking again.

On the other hand, Moscow attacks civilians. Take a look at what you missed:

100% record in air defence overnight, according to #Ukraine.

Of 83 attack drones fired by #Russia, 61 were shot down by #Ukraine with the other 22 decoys.

I did report a fire in #Sumy last night, but that and damage in #Kharkiv #Poltava + #Kirovohrad were from falling debris. Image
