Day 993 of #Russia's three-day bid to take #Kyiv.
The invaders are still mired in #Donetsk, not that far from where they started.

This is my daily thread with all the news, all the time. Please remember how much work goes into this and help if you can:
ko-fi.com/twmcltd
Monday's thread was tough, documenting horrendous attacks on #Kramatorsk #KryvyiRih #Mykolaiv and #Zaporizhzhia as well as attacks on many other places which were foiled.

But also proof of #Russia hitting its own and a happy anniversary. Catch-up here:
Monday saw an all-time record number of invaders' deaths/injuries. Today that number has been smashed.

In the last 24 hours #Russia lost another 1,950 troops says #Ukraine.

Many deaths are in #Kursk where there are suicidal assaults.
Also note 81 APC/APVs and 23 tanks. Image
This time yesterday, #Russia slammed a missile into an apartment block into an apartment block in #KryvyiRih

Last night this woman's body was recovered. In the next couple of hours her three children were also found dead. Father Maksym lost his entire family, murdered by Putin Image
Image

Image
Last night in the thread I reported on #Ukraine's strike on an oil depot in #Belgorod, near the regional border with #Voronezh.

Officials say the usual no damage, no injuries.
These are the only images I've managed to find from locals.

Looting & theft have long been known to be part of life under occupation.

In #Melitopol they seize whole homes.
A woman, now living in #Norway, gave her sister power of attorney at #Russia's embassy in Oslo. The local governor still seized her apartment.
ria-m.tv/news/364525/ji…
The search and rescue operation in #KryvyiRih has been completed.

A mother and her three children have been pronounced dead - the youngest child just 2 months old.

14 others were injured in #Russia's latest outrage. Image
#Ukraine's Emergency workers have freed two people who became trapped in an apartment block in #Zaporizhzhia region.

The building in #Stepnohirsk was badly damaged by an airstrike according to governor Ivan Fedorov, but the rescued residents needed only minor treatment. Image
Image
Image
Residents in #Sumy often spend mornings cleaning up after the latest attack by #Russia.

So it is in #Krasnopil which was shelled with 4 anti-tank rockets. No tanks nor military were near.

No-one was injured, but more home and lives ruined.

Sir @Keir_Starmer doesn't want the #UK to be "hung out to dry" & will make a 'final plea' to Biden to give his blessing to #Ukraine hitting deep inside #Russia

Biden doesn't object to #StormShadows being used but will not back it.

They'll meet at next week's G20 meeting
2/2
Britain's PM will also urge Biden to release $20bn for #Ukraine from frozen #Russia funds, before he leaves office.

The Telegraph has a slightly different take, still reporting Downing Street's version to keep the heat off Starmer.

#Taiwan has given a massive boost to #Ukraine's air defence.

Forbes reports the threatened island has donated its surplus HAWK surface-to-air missile batteries to #Kyiv. There could be up to 15 extra systems deployed.

It's always important to remember heroes. But in #Chelyabinsk, for some reason women are upset at the memorial for Denys Sinitsyn.

After all, Sinitsyn only raped + killed a woman, gouging out her eyes before she died.

In #Russia all is forgiven if you kill Ukrainians Image

#Russia dropped a 500kg aerial bomb on occupied #Luhansk region.

@Astra_Press reports residents had to hurriedly evacuate when the missile fell next to a residential building in #Almazna on Sunday.

They say it's the 142nd such case of #FriendlyFire Image
Image
The last of #Russia's drones was shot down at 08:15 and we finally have the official stats from #Ukraine

It seems one S-300 missile hit #Kharkiv and Kh-59/69s in #Chernihiv #Sumy and #Kharkiv

110 drones were fired
Shot down: 46
Stopped with EW: 60
Flew to 🇷🇺:2 🇧🇾:1
UAV hits: 1 Image
Occupiers report four injuries in #Horlivka after morning shelling.

#Russia says the centre of the town in #Donetsk region was hit, including this bus.

#RussiansGOHOME #DonetskIsUkraine Image
#Donetsk itself has also been hit this morning.

These photos are from the #Kyivskyi district of the occupied city.

This time #Russia's aviation missed their own troops, who stumbled upon this dropped aerial bomb which didn't explode in occupied #Ukraine.

"What the hell? What are you? This needs to be sorted out" says the invader.
First video of the moment #Russia blew up the dam near #StariTerny in free #Donetsk. Villages downstream of the #Kurakhiv reservoir started to flood. The true extent of the damage is not yet known.

But after the clouds there's always blue sky, with followers there today up 70

In occupied #Crimea a fuel tanker has exploded.

One person has been injured in the incident in #Simferopol.
Explosions are continuing as emergency workers fight the blaze.

The fascist state excells itself- jailing a 68yo paediatrician for 5.5 years for "fakes" about #Russia's army.

Resembling the Salem witch trials, Nadezhda Buyanova was convicted on a single allegation made behind closed doors

Shouts "shame" and "fascist" as sentence was passed
Image
Image
Image
Purely coincidental of course, the judge who today jailed the highly respected paediatrician, had just been promoted by the Fascist State.

@Sota_Vision found Olga Fedina was elevated to the Moscow City Court just 6 weeks ago.

Two kamikaze drones hit #Kharkiv within an hour.

The Saltiv and now Slobid districts were struck.

There is damage to an 11-storey residential building in Slobid and a
60-year-old woman was injured as a result of the latest hit.

#StopRussia
This is one of the drones which hit #Kharkiv.

The "Molniya-1" UAV struck the Saltiv district.

A 55-year-old woman received shrapnel wounds. Windows in nearby apartment blocks were damaged.

The early indications have been very good from Mark Rutte as the new NATO chief.

"We must do more then just help #Ukraine stay in the game."
That's been my criticism of some countries, esp Germany + USA, for 2 years.

This is fun! #Ukraine's national anthem was heard in one town in occupied #Kherson.

The 124th TRO brigade conducted a unique operation, dropping speakers across #Oleshky.

However, I must add it's not the original sound on the video, so may have been different in reality.
The Occupiers accuse #Ukraine of attacking a high-voltage transformer, leaving 40,000 users in #Zaporizhzhia region in the dark.

The incident happened in #Mykhailivka, which Russia captured in 2022.
#Ukraine has managed to down another of #Russia's attack helicopters with an FPV drone.

The Ka-52 was hit 5 days ago, social media posts show the aircraft commander died, but the navigator survived.

Yuliya Navalnaya's speech in #Portugal today was interrupted by #Ukraine activists.

She and her late husband have both been accused of not supporting Ukraine, which, when she resumed, she flatly denied.
#Sumy region has been hit again.

A number of strikes hit #Shostka, 50km from the border with #Russia. The town now has no power after critical infrastructure was hit.

#SaveUkraine Image
Fewer drones attacking #Ukraine tonight, at least so far.

Currently just under 20 UAVs are scattered around #Ukraine.
Explosions in #Zaporizhzhia.
Alarms were sounding recently for danger from both drones and aerial bombs.

#RussiaIsATerroristState
A former US serviceman who leaked military documents has been given a 15 year jail sentence.

Jack Teixeira shared information, including about #Russia's invasion of #Ukraine.

Slowly, the numbers of #Russia's flying mopeds are being whittled down.

About 10-12 remain now, most in the east, drifting westwards.

That's all for today's 🧵
I'll grab some sleep - please join me again in the morning.

It's Day 994 of #Russia's all-out invasion and war-crime-spree in #Ukraine.

Every single day (not a single day off), I've been here compiling daily threads with all the important news, fact checked and analysed in one place.

Thanks for joining me on the ride. Let's go!
For the first time in 73 days #Russia had a combined missile and drone attack overnight.

All the details coming up, but first the link to the start of Tuesday's thread for those still catching up with #Ukraine news.

I'll begin the new stories though with breaking news from occupied #Crimea.

Another car bomb attack has killed a prominent invader.

In #Sevastopol, it's reported a captain of the 1st rank of the Black Sea Fleet died when an IED exploded.

Hello and a very warm welcome to Monday's #Ukraine thread, documenting all the important news (and no gratuitous gore) from the country's defiance in the face of outright fascism and war crimes from invading #Russia.

It's Day 992, another day stained with blood.
Let's go
Sunday was another very busy day with a near 50-post thread.

Unrest in #Russia
#Belarus attacked by 🇷🇺
Strikes on military targets in #Moscow + #Bryansk
Help from #France
and Ukraine hating Trump Jr being a tw*t
It's all here⬇️

First, breaking news, from #KryvyiRih

Though it may have not have sounded much, this blast was a 5-storey building being hit in the last hour.
Governor Serhiy Lysak says information about victims is being ascertained.

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

Hello again, welcome to the weekend.
It's Saturday 9 November 2024. Day 990 of #Russia's apparent genocide and bid to wipe #Ukraine from the map.

All the news, all the time, in one handy thread.
Please buy me a "KoFi" (see bio) if you can support independent journalism💙💛
As always a link back to yesterday's thread to kick us off.

A lot of activity overnight in #Russia, which says it shot down all 50 #Ukraine drones. Two were destroyed over #Tula region.

That's strange because locals report hearing 10 or 11 explosions, such as these, which look and sound a little more than air defence work!

We are getting close to the big "K"
Almost 1,000 days of #Russia invading, torturing, murdering, kidnapping children.

#Ukraine needs us like never before.
Remember the civilians and keep 🇺🇦in the news.

It's Day 989 of the war in Europe, here's Friday's daily thread.
Today's thread has all the signs of being very interesting, but each day this week my profile's being hidden, with first post views <15k yesterday.

On Thursday, we had Ladyboys getting revenge on a Russian, 3 of the worst invaders dying + more. See here
#Ukraine's Intel says it struck an oil refinery in #Russia overnight.

Officials in #Saratov deny there was any damage, but this is much more than the usual flare at such sites.

Thursday 7 November 2024.
Day 988 of #Russia's war in Europe, and the continent's leaders meet today not knowing if the President of the biggest member of NATO is now a friend or foe.

These are still crucial times for #Ukraine and for all of us.
Welcome. Read my daily thread..
#Kyiv and #Odesa were the main targets overnight in #Russia's attack, with damage to both cities.

More on that in forthcoming posts, but first the link back to the start of yesterday's thread.
Not many views, but they missed some good stories!

There was a discussion on here yesterday about loss of followers. Probably some bots, but there has been a mini exodus from X-itter. I'm now down 250.

To repeat, I am on🔵 - Sky
People had trouble finding me, though it is the same @ name. If you cannot find me, drop me a DM.
