⚡️Ukraine's military reportedly strikes power plant in Moscow Oblast. Ukraine's military reportedly struck the Shatura Thermal Power Plant in Moscow Oblast overnight on Nov. 23, Russian Telegram media channels reported.

The thread is over, but an important tease for Sunday's thread as a power plant has been hit by 2 "arrivals" according to locals. The Shatura State District Thermal Power Plant is in Moscow Region and is one of the oldest power plants in Russia. #SlavaUkraïni

⚡️Pro-Ukrainian partisans set locomotive ablaze in Russia's Rostov-on-Don, group claims. Members of the pro-Ukrainian partisan group Atesh sabotaged an electric locomotive allegedly used for transporting military cargo from the Russian city of Rostov-on-Don, Atesh claimed on Nov. 23.

Yep, that sounds like the truth to me!

The absurdity of the 28 point paper gets another twist. US State Deputy Spokesman Tommy Pigott called the bipartisan group of US Senators, including Republican Senator Mike Rounds, liars. This US administration has completely lost its plot, if it ever existed. Total chaos.

As usual, it seems there is complete confusion in the 2cd Trumpian WH. The confusion is being used by Russian disinformation to Putin‘ advantage. What Rubio said initially is likely the truth. But, to keep his job, he’ll be forced to walk it back. This is where we need the GOP Hawks to speak louder!

The current mess in DC only signals to Beijing that the US lacks unity, organization, and strategic vision to handle an even larger conflict, as the Pacific region is likely to become. Bombing Iran after Israel's SEAD or running masculine army ads doesn’t compensate for it

A time was had! What an extraordinary night with @outmagazine and the #OUT100 class of 2025! I got to meet some of my heroes and share space with dear friends who are trying to make the world a better and safer place for the #LGBTQ community. #equality #representation #gay #comedy

The last few hours have proven 2 terrible things. First, the US and Russian governments are so close that the US government takes large parts of Russian proposals and passes them off as their own, and second that some people are so desperate to exonerate Trump that they act like this a good thing.

What we might be learning tonight. JD Vance is on the inside with lots of influence over Trump policy towards Russia/Ukraine, while Rubio is kept in the dark. Vance, btw, might be the most pro Russian/anti Ukraine person in the administration (other than Trump perhaps)

🔥 Russian refineries have actively started using the so-called "purge" before attacks, - Dnipro Osint If Ukrainian UAVs are detected on the route to the refinery, the refinery turns on a flare line. It burns gas from technical platforms and installations at the plant

🔥 Dokuchaevsk (Donetsk region) substation attacked!

Another substation has reportedly been hit in Shakhtarsk, occupied Donetsk region. Local sources note disruptions.

⚡️Update: Search and rescue operations end in Ternopil with 33 dead, 6 still missing. Operations concluded after four days, the State Emergency Service said on Nov. 22. The death toll has risen to 33, with six people missing, including a child.

1/ The Kyiv Independent is reporting that Trump envoy Steve Witkoff is "running a shadow operation inside the White House in an effort to sideline pro-Ukraine officials", cutting out Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in an effort supported by Vice President J.D. Vance. ⬇️

💔 5 people were injured in a Russian attack on a supermarket in Zaporizhzhia - the occupiers shelled the city using Grad MLRS.

🇳🇱‼️ Several drones were spotted over the Volkel military airbase in the Netherlands yesterday. The military opened fire from the ground in an attempt to shoot them down. The drones flew away and could not be found.

Reports from Budyonnovsk in Russia’s Stavropol region indicate a large fire at the Stavrolen chemical plant, previously targeted by Ukrainian forces. The cause of the current blaze is yet to be confirmed.

‼️ US Army secretary, US secretary of state and US special envoy to meet Ukrainian delegation in Geneva on Sunday

A quick and important finding!

🇩🇪🇺🇦 Merz: I want to say very clearly: the end of this war is only possible with the full consent of Ukraine. Wars cannot be ended in a way that great powers decide over the heads of those directly affected by the aggression. This war can only be stopped with the consent of Ukraine and Europe.

"The reality is that despite a variety of statements promising action at unspecified future dates, he has continued to treat Putin with deference. The Trump White House has taken no significant action against Russia to force a more equitable and lasting solution to the conflict."

Si ce n’est toi, c’est donc ton fils! www.rferl.org/a/iran-arres...

As his national bank coffers are increasingly empty, Putin has probably started demanding that public institutions contribute to his war budget… www.rferl.org/a/russia-fil...

I was honored to speak at a conference “Intent to Destroy: Confronting Russia’s Campaign to Erase Ukraine & Its People” at Georgetown. The mere suggestion of amnesty for Russia's war crimes and genocidal actions against Ukrainians, contained in Trump's 28-point plan, is an unconscionable obscenity.

The man whose army of thugs has failed to make strategically significant progress in Ukraine in almost 2 years, says defeating Russia is an illusion. Why should we believe him?? On the contrary, he is delusional & his power is increasingly illusional. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

As Ukraine marks Holodomor Remembrance Day, mourning millions of victims of Stalin's genocidal famine, it feels as though the Trump administration is happy to give Putin another chance to finish off what Stalin started. Europe should do everything in its power to help Ukraine & defeat Russia.

Read my scoop overnight from Kyiv, where US army secretary Dan Driscoll’s brief meeting (he was running late after calls with Vance) with European ambassadors at the US ambassador’s residence in Podil left one feeling “nauseated” and others “shocked.” W/ @henryjfoy.ft.com on.ft.com/43GWpxI

⚡️Drones reportedly strike electric substation in occupied Crimea. The Yany Kapu electric substation in northern Crimea was targeted by drones overnight on Nov. 22, Telegram channel Astra reported.

Huge losses for Russia yesterday!

Depressing, but absolutely not a surprise!!

🇺🇦 Ukrainian Air Defence shot down: ▪️89/104 strike UAVs ▪️0/1 Iskander-M ballistic missile 13 strike UAVs were recorded hit at 15 locations, as well as a ballistic missile at one location.

Finally, the US’s Russia Hawks are speaking out openly! Louder, please ladies and gentlemen of the GOP!!

‼️‼️‼️ We cannot choose between preparing for military war with totalitarianism and preparing for war against infectious diseases. They are the same battle to maintain civilisation. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

🇵🇱🇺🇦🕯️ 7-year-old Polish girl and her mother killed in Russian shelling in Ternopil Polish MFA has already reacted and calls for this to be classified as a killing of civilians. Diplomats are in contact with local authorities to coordinate assistance to the victims.

This whole story is so nuts. Joining the UK's Times Radio at 515 ET to discuss—along with continued Russian information operations 📻 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This "security guarantee" provides no guarantee of security whatsoever. It's nothing like Article 5 of the NATO treaty, it's the antithesis of the spirit of NATO - which isn't surprising when you consider the source.

Wow, now that’s a biggy…!
