Here's the link back to all Monday's news.
More heinous attacks. On its day of mourning, #Sumy was hit again just as the day ended, and #Odesa lost another ten residents.
News of what looks like a #Ukraine strike in #Bryansk region - ATACMS already?
Six weeks after hitting an ammo dump in #Karachev, it's been hit again according to the videos, but I cannot verify them yet.
Bully bunker boy's at it again.
Nukey-Putey changes #Russia's law on use of nukes in a clear attempt to scare #Ukraine + those who support it.
The new decree says aggression by any "non-nuclear" state, but supported by a nuclear armed state will now be considered a joint-attack
Very late last night I wrote about the developing news from #Sumy region as the first bodies were discovered.
The news has got much worse this morning as the death toll in #Hlukhiv has grown to 9 with four people thought to be under the rubble of this hostel.
#StopRussia
#Russia's celebrates Day 1000 of the war by losing another 1,610 troops on the battlefields.
Already over 27k invaders have died or been wounded so far in November.
Today 7 categories are above the daily mean including tanks, artillery, APC/APVs + other vehicles.
#SlavaUkraini
#Russia launched 87 attack drones at #Ukraine during the night.
51 were shot down by air defence.
30 downed by EW
1 still flying when this was published
Leaving 5 likely to have hit targets.
#RussiaIsATerroristState
I remarked yesterday how #Russia had moved a couple of warships into the Black Sea after quite a long absence.
Since then another 4 have turned up, armed with a combined 24 cruise missiles.
Another 3 vessels, carrying 24 more, are in the Med.
#RussiaIsATerroristState
At the UN last night, the #USA pledged more aid for #Ukraine.
@USAmbUN, told the UNSC "We will strengthen our support for Ukraine and will announce a new package of military aid in the near future."
It will include more air defence and armoured vehicles.
#StandWithUkraine
A US official has for the first time, fully confirmed that Washington has given the green light for use of long-range weapons inside #Russia.
Brian Nichols hopes it will force🇷🇺 to "start negotiating peace or, better yet, simply withdraw from #Ukraine."
#Ukraine confirms an attack I reported at the start of this🧵 when I should've been sleeping!
Gov of #Bryansk claims 13 drones were shot down, but 🇺🇦 General Staff says "12 secondary explosions + a detonation were recorded" at the 1046th logistics centre's arsenal, #Karachev.
#Russia's state news agency published a video of the moment when war criminal Valery Trankovsky was blown up in occupied #Sevastopol last week.
The Navy Captain was responsible for firing missiles on #Vinnytsia + #Dnipro.
Today Russia arrested two suspects for the car bombing.
#Russia attacked a bus in #Kherson region.
The No.38 came under enemy fire in #Kindiika, near #Antonivka. Clearly it's a military target😡🤬🇷🇺💩
Fortunately only one person was injured despite the extensive damage to the vehicle.
#RussiaIsATerroristState
In #Hlukhiv, in the #Sumy region, the number of killed in #Russia's attack early this morning, has now increased to 12.
Happening now - explosions in #Kharkiv
3 people confirmed injured by mayor Ihor Terekhov.
The blast was in the #Kyivskyi district.
#StopRussia
#UK sanctions 10 "perpetrators of Russia’s forced deportation + brainwashing of #Ukraine's children"
London says it "sanctions those involved in 🇷🇺’s systematic attempt to erase Ukrainian cultural + national identity"
So why not call this genocide?🤔 gov.uk/government/new…
Pres Zelenskyy has presented his "stability plan" to #Ukraine's parliament.
Much was predictable: no doubt there will be some criticism in confirming "no elections until after victory"
Shelters will be improved & there must be metal detectors at all schools and state buildings
I didn't publish this earlier as I have been "tapping" my sources, none of whom could confirm, and some were sceptical, that #Ukraine had used ATACMS for the overnight attack on an ammo depot in #Bryansk
The well-informed 🇺🇦site Censor broke the story.
Now🇷🇺 state RIA confirms.
#Denmark's PM, Mette Fredriksen has arrived on an unannounced visit to #Kyiv, her 5th since the full invasion.
She wanted to mark the special day, the one thousandth, as one of #Ukraine's strongest supporters. She already laid a wreath at the #Bucha memorial.
Why am I sceptical?
#Ukraine has a very limited supply of ATACMS
🇺🇦previously hit this site with drones.
Would🇺🇦use ATACMS on a missile store?
For🇺🇦it's useful to say ATACMS hit targets.
For🇷🇺 it's also be useful for its propaganda.
I don't say it didn't happen, just sceptical
#Kharkiv
The number injured is now 12, the youngest is 18.
Four of the victims are hospitalised, with two men said to be fighting for their lives.
It's concerning that officials have not yet revealed the impact site.
#StopRussia
#RussiaOnFire
Here's an interesting blaze..
Flames lap the #Ulyanovsk Institute of Civil Aviation.
Neighbours publish photos online.
The building is being evacuated.
Ulyanovsk is around 1150km from the border with #Ukraine, but this is likely an accident.
I'm afraid it looks bad for #Ukraine in #ChasivYar
It's a very important higher town, effectively protecting #Kostiantynivka, less than 10km away
#Russia's troops are now virtually at Avanhard Stadium (🔵on map) & within metres of the town hall🟢
Maps show🇷🇺 advance in 3 days
Military correspondent Boris Myroshnikov says #Ukraine is hanging on to one factory in the town.
The reality is a few more aerial bombs will wipe it out and the last of 🇺🇦's serious strongholds in the town.
Retreat seems inevitable, just a matter of when
More on #Ukraine's likely use of ATACMS in #Russia this morning.
The first video gives a clearer, longer view of the hits on the weapons/ammo arsenal at #Karachev in #Bryansk.
Video 2 alleges to show secondary explosions of the ammo, but I cannot verify it's from there.
So is this a hole you'd expect from an ATACMS strike?
In #Russia, they published pics of the arrival site in #Karachev and a fragment nearby.
They say the missile was still in the ground at a depth of 5m.
Big protests continue again in #Georgia.
They're demanding new elections after #Russia's party stole the vote.
The focus is #Tblisi State Uni where students were removed earlier. Now police let them through a cordon.
#Zelenskyy refused to say whether they used ATACAMS overnight.
But, speaking alongside the Danish PM, 🇺🇦President said:
"#Ukraine has long-range capabilities, we have long-range drones, we have long Neptunes. And now we have ATACMS and we will use all of them."
Some in #Russia showed they still have a heart by supporting the anti-war "1000 days of war" in several cities.
Astra published photos from #Yekaterinburg #Ulyanovsk #Novosibirsk #Perm + #YuzhnoSakhalinsk where people were asked to bring carnations + green ribbons to memorials.
In #Moldova a drone's been discovered near a shopping centre in the capital #Chisinau.
Investigations are underway. The location is also near the Arena Chisinau sports centre.
People ask me if it's possible to believe #Ukraine figures about #Russia losses.
I've written before (probably only on Xitter) that most of the sacrifices for the bunker Tsar are in
#Kursk.
Putin's obsession/desperation is to win back Kursk before negotiations.
#StopRussia
Britain today allocated another £7.5m for attack and surveillance drones, to be used by #Ukraine.
Def Sec @JohnHealey_MP yesterday confirmed the UK has now trained more than 50,000 of #Ukraine's armed forces in Britain.
#StandWithUkraine
The site of #Russia's attack in #Kharkiv has still not been revealed.
All that's been said is that the strike on the Kyivskyi district happened "on a roadway" and that "a gas station and several cars were damaged."
12 people were injured.
#StandWithUkraine
Air alarms sound in the #Rostov and #Kaluga regions of #Russia.
One drone has been shot down in the former, according to the Terrorist State which started a war in Europe 1,000 days ago.
The markets have closed - let's take a look at #Russia's financial news. Oh dear, oh dear.
Confidence⬇️
Ruble⬇️$1 rose above 100 rubles, to highest level since March 2022.
Stocks ⬇️ @MoscowTimes reports a $2bn plunge.
If investing in 🇷🇺 buy shares in laundry + underwear😂
People are wrongly saying #Belgorod has been hit, but these videos are from the #Voronezh region of #Russia.
It's in #Kamenskiy, with the town's head saying 5 drones attacked the PJSC Evdakovsky plant, which they claim only processes food oils and fats.
#StopRussia
An explosion in the suburbs of #Dnipro appears to be the work of #Ukraine's air defence (air defence)
Meanwhile multiple explosions in #Sumy - some air defence but #Konotop has been hit, #Shostka too I believe, but no injuries reported.
#StopRussia
My apologies #Belgorod has also been hit by drones, but some accounts I saw posted the wrong videos.
The confusion is understandable as this is also another supposed food (sauce) factory, the EFKO plant in #Alekseevka, where some have lost of power.
Officially drone debris😉
How did no-one in @UKLabour check this?
Just seen a political spot on Channel 4 where @CalvinBailey says "THE Ukraine"
It's very offensive to Ukrainians.
We've only been supporting them for 3 years guys 🫣😟
#Ukraine's players commemorated today's landmark after scoring in #Albania this evening.
As things stand (still 2-0) Ukraine is set to go from bottom in the #NationsLeague group to 2nd and a promotion play off to return to the highest level.
Reuters says a U.S. official has told them #Ukraine fired EIGHT ATACMS. The source claims #Russia intercepted 2 of the 8
While 2 of 8 is about the best ratio #Russia could hope for, I'm really shocked if🇺🇦 really fired 8 valuable missiles at an ammo dump reuters.com/world/europe/u…
The problem with this programme is when the contributors talk about stuff beyond their knowledge.
Jenny Kleeman was ok, but Benedict Spence was embarrassing spouting about #Ukraine and #Russia.
A little while ago #Russia hit another residential building in #Zaporizhzhia region, according to the Governor.
However, Ivan Fedorov did not revealed where or how many casualties. There's still no update 2 hours later.
By the way, #Ukraine did win 2-0 in #Albania and finish second in the group.
So they will have a play off match for a chance to be promoted. Possible opponents for🇺🇦 are #Scotland #Belgium #Hungary or #Serbia. The draw is on Friday.
An unforeseen extra war cost for #Russia has emerged.
So far in 2024, the Terrorist State has spent 183m rubles on identifying the bodies of its dead. That's about the annual wage bill for 20 teachers.
The cost has almost trebled since 2022, due to extra staff & genetic testing
I was hoping we'd get an update on this story..
A ship from China has reportedly been stopped in #Denmark's waters.
The Yi Peng 3 was found to have slowed down or stopped when crossing underwater cables at exactly the time they were severed.
#Russia reports five more drones have been shot down over #Smolensk region. I've not heard of any damage there yet.
1/2 Gosh I am exhausted. What a day, and so many of you to thank for making Day 1000 memorable🫂💙💛
Your kind words, wishes & donations have flooded in.
I'll namecheck everyone tomorrow. Right now I'm struggling to stay awake, but there's one breaking story I need to publish..
2/2 #Ukraine has made another major attack deep inside #Russia tonight, but with good old drones not ATACMS.
I'll close Tuesday's thread now, but start the new thread with the breaking news and then sleep.
Just thank you to everyone. 644 likes, 250 retweets.
Good night all.

Day 1001 of #Russia's all out war in #Ukraine.
The genocide & attempt to wipe its neighbour from the map continues, but #Putin's increasingly desperate.
Welcome to another daily🧵
Breaking news already early this Wednesday morning.
All the news, all day (and night) every day.
Tuesday 19 November was always going to be special. Day 1,000 and what a day it proved.
Record likes and retweets, thanks to everyone who revived my faith in the T witter audience🫂
1/2 First the breaking news - and a third attack of the night inside #Russia.
At the end of yesterday's thread you may have read of the drone attacks on #Voronezh and #Belgorod regions. Well now it's become clear that #Novgorod has also been attacked by #Ukraine's UAVs..
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.
Day 998 of #Russia's all out war, and Sunday 17 Nov is the day #Moscow's war criminals chose for the big missile attack on #Ukraine
It's such a difficult time for anyone associated with Ukraine. With the election of Musk/Trump, Putin's convinced terrorism will win.
Here's the🧵
Before I forget, here's the link for yesterday's thread. I know many of you like to catch up on what you've missed in #Ukraine and stories connected to the war.
Hello and welcome to Day 996 of #Russia's barbaric war.
Putin's band of war criminals is throwing everything at #Ukraine's defenders for 2 months as the Kremlin is certain tRUmp will force negotiations and wants to be in the strongest position possible.
Here's the daily thread
#Russia is literally teetering on the edge of economic meltdown. If the west does not take this opportunity to ensure justice, protect borders and prosecute war criminals, historians will look back and shake their heads. They may also ask why do anything in the previous 3 years?
Anyway, let's get on with the stories of the day, although we start as ever with the link back to Thursday's thread.
It was a day which saw more problems for #Russia, more war crimes with a civilian shot dead on the street and a terrible attack on #Odesa
Very near 1000 days of war in Europe, but also we should remember that #Ukraine's allies were pretty happy to let the first invasion by #Russia in 2014 go unchecked.
Weakness, appeasement or shady deals for cash only store up and multiply problems.
Here my daily🧵on Day 995
First thing first, the link for the start of yesterday's thread.
Plenty of evidence of #Russia's pending economic collapse, especially masses of airlines. Plus rioting absconders in Russia and assassination of one of their war criminals. All in here⬇️
