🇺🇦 In Donetsk Oblast, despite a mandatory evacuation order, tens of thousands of vulnerable civilians stay under fire, or have to make the heartbreaking decision to leave everything behind, once bombs reach their home.

My report for @kyivindependent.com 👇

As Russians inch closer to Pokrovsk, civilians in the area are left with a choice — stay under fire or leave life behind
BILOZERSKE, Donetsk Oblast — Less than 30 kilometers north of embattled Pokrovsk, a market was in full swing in the town of Bilozerske. Meters away, however, a crowd has gathered in front of a buildi...

🔴 Russia launched missiles against Kyiv for the 2nd time today, showing once again a very clear intent to destroy Ukraine & its population.

🔴 At dawn, Russia bombed residential buildings in Kramatorsk, killing at least one person, a 77-year-old pensioner, and injuring three men.

Eleven buildings were damaged by the blast. Parkova Street, the epicenter of the strike, is one of the city’s main streets.

🔴A humanitarian crisis unfolds in Ukraine, as Russia targets, again, the country's energy infrastructure, in a 2nd large-scale attack this week, worsening an already dire situation.

People here live in unheated flats with very scarce electricity access.

🔴 Une nouvelle attaque russe à grande échelle est en train de s'abattre sur l'Ukraine et ses infrastructures énergétiques, déjà exsangues.

Des coupures de courant d'urgence paralysent le réseau et des millions de personnes sont, toujours, plongées dans le froid, en plein cœur de l'hiver

For perspective, this is me standing next to a Shahed drone, one of the attack drones that Russia throws at Ukraine each day, sometimes by the hundreds, oftentimes by the dozens, both in frontline areas and on civilian infrastructure in the rear. They can carry up to 90 kilos of explosives.

Russia launched a cluster bomb on Druzhkivka's market earlier today, killing seven people and injuring a further 15. Druzhkivka is located near Kramatorsk, in the third of the region Russia has not managed to conquer militarily.

Pictures of an elderly man injured show the target Russia aims for.

Russia has said that it is ready for a new reality in which there are no limits on nuclear weapons after the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START-III) expires later this week.

Loin d'Abu Dhabi, ici à Kharkiv on tourne autour de -15°C sans chauffage & peu d'électricité (grâce à un générateur) & la Russie continue de tuer des Ukrainiens.

Aujourd’hui sept morts à Druzhkivka, ville proche de Kramatorsk, tuées par des bombes à sous-munitions lancées sur le marché de la ville.

🇺🇦 Loin d'Abu Dhabi, à Kharkiv, un état d'urgence a été décrété hier suite aux frappes russes sur les infrastructures énergétiques. Concrètement, des dizaines de milliers de personnes (dont moi 👋) n'ont plus de chauffage et des coupures d'électricité prolongées 👇

This @thestudyofwar.bsky.social graph shows Russia's consistency in its ever increasing strikes against Ukraine:

"The February 2 to 3 strike demonstrates that Russia never intended to use the energy strikes moratorium to de-escalate the war or seriously advance the US-initiated peace negotiations"👇
February 4, 2026 at 8:27 AM
It's nice if there are ever security guarantees so strong that Russia will not dare to attack Ukraine ever again, but Russia has historically shown disregard for treaties and continues attacking Ukraine every day, because it still feels enabled enough to do so.
February 3, 2026 at 3:30 PM
Le narratif "Moscou aurait arrêté de bombarder l'Ukraine pdt 3 jours grâce à Trump" est faux: si les infrastructures de Kyiv ont été brièvement épargnées, la Russie n'a jamais cessé ses frappes ailleurs. Dimanche 15 mineurs sont morts près de Pavlohrad sur un site de production énergétique.

🔴 Update: DTEK, Ukraine's biggest private energy provider, has revealed that at least 15 of its workers were killed in the attack, a large-scale operation targeting DTEK mines in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

The service bus was transporting miners back home after their shift.
🔴 Russia attacked a service bus in Pavlohrad, Dnipropetrovsk region, with a drone that killed 12 people and injured a further seven, who were hospitalised.

For context: despite the proximity of the frontline in the region, workers still commute daily to and from industrial sites or mines.
