BBC News in Kyiv, Ukraine and London
Ukraine has said it attacked naval targets and port infrastructure in Crimea, in one of its biggest strikes on the Russian navy's Black Sea fleet.

Russia earlier claimed Ukraine had launched 10 missiles and three unmanned boats in the attack.

It caused a large fire at a Sevastopol shipyard which left 24 people injured, Russia said.

The Moscow-installed governor claimed most of the weapons were intercepted but that two ships had been damaged.

Ukraine has strongly implied western-supplied cruise missiles were used in the attack, one of the biggest on the Black Sea fleet since the war started.

Downdetctor(!)
Starlink outages reported in the last 24 hours.

Absolutely nothing until ~5pm PT (3am in Ukraine), when the number of outage reports skyrocketed to a max of 33,202. And then, by 7pm PT (5am in Ukraine), the outages were reporting much lower, only around 2,000 for that time period, and over the next several hours it plummeted to less than 100.

Ukraine targeted a Russian navy yard in the Crimean port city of Sevastopol, striking at least two warships undergoing repairs in dry docks, said Russian authorities and Moscow-imposed officials in the occupied Black Sea peninsula.

Footage posted on social media by authorities and bystanders in Sevastopol captured missile strikes and fiery explosions at Sevmorzavod, Russia’s main Black Sea fleet shipbuilding and maintenance plant, early on Wednesday. Russia’s defence ministry claimed 10 missiles were fired at the ship repair facility, with seven missiles

If the post wasn't for us who were doing exactly what he mentioned, who was it for? Whoever it was for, it was disrespectful. If Bsky doesn't want us to use this method. Suffice it to say. We stopped immediately and pulled out the power cord.

it is possible to see that unfortunately some still do not have this professional spirit or the slightest consideration for outsiders who are as far as possible willing to publicize this platform. For me, due to the disregard of a Team member and I hope not everyone, I would now end this project.

It was a timely question and if they had the slightest consideration for people who only have the objective of promoting and helping the platform, they would have responded in some way by commenting on something so that we could find a solution. (5/10)

A fun full circle moment for the "blocks are only for safety" crew: an account with a very similar username to mine is on a crusade to block as many accounts as possible, showing that maybe, just maybe, blocks can be abused, and blocking someone can not be just about safety 😃 lmao.

Another feature we have at our disposal is: - who is being blocked the most? - who is blocking more users? (top #5 samples included) We're not sure if we should add this to our stats site (that will be made public SOON), so I'll create a poll for it in the next 5 minutes.
