Today is Day 999 of Europe's war
It's cold in the UK today. Imagine if you didn't have heat. Not just for one day, but maybe for most of the winter Now imagine it's 10 degrees colder
If you can do that you understand what people in #Ukraine feel, or fear.

Welcome to my daily🧵
Monday and Tuesday are days of mourning in #Sumy region after an horrific attack on an apartment block.
It was the last in a long line of murders of civilians by #Russia on Sunday.
I produced the longest thread for months (over 60 posts) - catch up here

Let me start today's news in #Sumy, because sadly the number of killed + injured after #Russia's strike have both increased.
An 11th person died during the night while 89 people required medical treatment. Medics, rescuers, psychologists and volunteers worked through the night.

All the areas in western #Ukraine which were without power yesterday have now had supplies restored.
#Sumy and #Odesa remain two large areas where most have no electricity.

#Russia attacked #Ukraine with two Iskander ballistic missiles last night and one Kh-59 guided missile, none of which could be intercepted.
None of the 11 drones hit target. 8 were shot down and 3 stopped by EW.

After having zero boats in the Black Sea for weeks, #Russia has quietly moved 2 missile-carrying warships back into the water to the south of #Ukraine.
They are carrying a total of 8 cruise missiles.

Now to #Russia's daily losses for the last 24 hours (#Ukraine figures).
1,560 more dead/wounded keeps up the November average. Even though there are only 30 days, it's well on course to be the bloodiest month for the invaders.
Indeed, it should break the record on 28 Nov.

So the USA finally lifted the incredibly harmful ban on using long range weapons in #Russia. But whether there is unrestricted use is not clear.
No Taurus from #Germany.. but Berlin will give #Ukraine new "Mini-Taurus" AI drones.

Not thought to be related to the war, but a very upsetting story from #Dnipropetrovsk.
Fire has hit the Pegasus stables and equine hospital in the village of Yelizavetivka.
It's thought 140 horses died in the fire. The structure was made of wood.

Well I guess I'm being hidden again by Xitter and definitely not showing up in people's feeds judging by how few views and interaction there is.
How convenient to suppress pro-#Ukraine accounts when #Russia goes on a mass killing spree.

On his Telegram channel, President #Zelenskyy reacts to the latest tragedy.
The automated Google translation still uses the Russian spelling for #Odesa, and there is a misleading translation to "dozens" for a word which means "10s" - so to clarify, the number injured remains 18

Remember the usual. If you read something good about Russia, or bad about Ukraine, if it doesn't "smell" right, check who's publishing it. Check with other sources you know are reliable.
Some bad things do happen in 🇺🇦 but we will report them accurately.

Interesting incident to report in #Russia's crumbling aviation industry.
A pilot on a Rossiya Airlines flight from #StPetersburg to #Nalchik reports attempts to blind them with a green laser as they came in to land.
They managed to touch down without problems.

#Ukraine's President went right to the hottest spot on the frontline today. Zelenskyy was in #Kupiansk, where one of #Russia's advanced groups made it all the way into the town.

Explosions in #Zaporizhzhia and half the city is without power again.
It therefore looks like another energy structure has been hit.
No official details yet.

It's just gone midnight in #Ukraine
That means it's the start of the 1,000th day of #Russia's full invasion. Every single day I've reported + analysed the war
I remember writing if Ukraine could get through the first 10 days they had a chance to survive!

@fab_hinz analysed the pics to ascertain there are five factories to produce solid-fuel rocket engines.

#Kyiv is defending itself against attack drones.
Earlier #Russia hit #Zaporizhzhia with at least 10 Iran-made #Shahed UAVs.

The so-called 'president' of #Abkhazia has resigned.
At the weekend, Aslan Bzhania had said he would step down, but would likely stand again in the new election.
VP Bandra Gunba becomes acting president of the defacto #Russia-occupied part of #Georgia.

So good night and thanks for being part of #TeamTim
