Earlier, Ukraine's Gen Staff confirmed overnight hits on the invaders.

The mini-refinery in Krasnodar was the headline strike, but they also claimed a whole host of hits on Russians in occupied territories - so many that it's just easier to publish the translation.

Get the fuck out of Ukraine.

Hello again! It's Day 1465 of Ukraine's fight against a genocidal maniac of a country.

Despite near constant talks, no one dares to say what I guess most of #TeamTim is thinking - we're no nearer peace than we were 4 years ago.

Russia Finance Ministry data now officially confirms: Russia's consolidated budget deficit was 3.9% of GDP in 2025 (8291.5 billion RUB).

Day 1464 of Russia's 3-day special operation to take Kyiv.

It's no longer looking so special (did it ever?), but Russia still has the ability to cause pain, death and destruction and has started Thursday trying to do just that with a missile attack on Ukraine.

Here's THE daily thread!
