Day three of the Ukrainian invasion showed some successes for Ukraine but continued gains by Russian forces.

Events

Okay, so apparently a Russian convoy was defeated in Western Kyiv 50.459003° 30.410094° and a SECOND IL-76 transport aircraft (potentially with over a 100 soldiers?) was confirmed as shot down by Ukraine.[1] However, fighting in the early hours is getting into the residential districts and outskirts of the city itself, slowly moving inward from the west.[2][3] Again the question is asked, with Russian troops on the ground walking towards the capital, how long can they last? 48 hours? Cluster munitions allegedly being used.[4] At least some successes have been occurring in Kharkov, with Ukrainian soldiers showing off captured Russian patches.[5] The Irish, being no strangers to a foreign power invading and occupying their country, continue to be awesome in their roasting of the Russian ambassador.[6] Heavy damage reported to a Ukrainian convoy in Kherson, from aviation?[7] Airport (which?) south of Kyiv repelled a Russian landing operation.[8] Bunch of Russian troops looking to be moving uncontested between Kherson and Antonovika.[9] Airspace dominance is still disputed? A deal was made regarding Chernobyl after the other European countries started sweating profusely at the prospect of 1986 Part 2, with the potential to irradiate parts of Europe.[10] Explosion reported near Zhuliany airport in Kyiv, with air defenses activated.[11] Russia issued a massive medical emergency, calling up medical staff from across the country to quickly (immediately?) report to the authorities to assist.[12] A major residential tower/highrise in Kyiv was hit,[13][14][15][16](location)[17] leading to emergency evacuation of the block.[18] However, it is unknown what the actual target was. National Scientific center? The direction it came in from looks a bit odd (west or southwest?) Allegedly the Arsenal Factory in Kyiv was also hit.[19] Zelenzky has balls of titanium.[20] Meanwhile, Germany is starting to realize it may have misjudged Nord Stream 2 and other situations...[21] Potential Iskander launch and landing sighted.[22] Unconfirmed videos from Khmelntsy region of a potential intercept?[23]
