Hello again, on Day 1456 of Russia's all out war.
It's the second day of so called "peace talks" in Geneva.. but wait! They've already just ended, after scarcely two hours.
All the news on that + everything else, because I've done this daily🧵 every single day since the first.

Russia hoped to batter and bully Ukraine into submission with its latest multi missile attack overnight, instead it's been a very impressive 24 hours for Kyiv.
Another significant success came 1,000 miles (1600km) from Ukraine with the Metrafax chemical plant in Perm being hit by around 6 drones.

Personnel losses for the invaders are down by about 25% and there's a noticeable drop in equipment destroyed too.

Details now on Russia's night attack.
Moscow launched 29 missiles + 396 drones as severe frosts returned to Ukraine.
Air Defence did well, taking down all 20 Kh-101 + all 5 cruise/guided missiles. However none of the 4 ballistic missiles could be stopped
For UAVs, 367 of 396 =93% success.

Agencies in Ukraine are warning Russia is planning more mass child kidnappings.
It seems to be a risk from the start of next month, when Russia states Ukrainian documents showing legal adoption or guardianship will have no legal bearing.
