Good morning to readers.
Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.
For the last year, I've been tracking a notorious Russian unit known for its role in killing 100s of civilians.
This week we published how we found them.
Meanwhile, Putin visited Mariupol overnight. More below...

Tough day at NPR: Four podcasts canceled, 10 percent of workforce laid off. We'll learn more about who is leaving the network in hours and days to come.

Please spare a thought for the 100 people at @npr, 10% of the workforce, being laid off today, Thurs and Fri due to a $30 million advertising shortfall. The people I've met at NPR are passionate, sharp and warm. We all stand on each other's shoulders.

This is going to be a tough week at NPR, as many people will lose their positions due to budget cuts. Before that happens, why not let your fave radio folks know how you feel about them? Most people have social media links in their bios.

1/ It's been a while since I've done a thread on the overall pace and prospects of 🇷🇺 offensives in 🇺🇦... so here's a quick one on our latest @TheStudyofWar assessment on indicators that the overall 🇷🇺 spring offensive appears to be nearing culmination.
The tempo of #Russian offensive operations across the theater has slowed in recent weeks, suggesting that the Russian spring offensive in #Donbas may be nearing culmination.

Not an NPR fan but Tim Mak’s reporting from Ukraine has been like a modern Walter Winchell - and his Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands is like a modern “Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. America from border to border and coast to coast and all the ships at sea.”
Good morning to readers.

Amazing research and reporting here. And in war conditions.
The thread breaks up a couple of times, just click on the last tweet to reconnect.

The investigators probing the killing of 298 civilians concluded, using intercepted phone calls, that Putin was *personally* behind the decision to put the 53rd Brigade's missiles into Ukraine.
It underscored that the 53rd Brigade's fatal actions were at Putin's direction.

And not only that, shortly before we aired the story, Putin signed a new decree about the 53rd Brigade.
Apparently unconcerned about how it would look, he ordered that the unit be given a new honorary designation, of 'Guards', a term reserved for supposedly elite Russian units.

You can read and listen to our 11 mo investigation into the 53rd Brigade here.
These stories, after they're done, may look like they're relatively simple, but I spoke to ~100 sources for this story (most of whom unhelpful) before being able to land it!

Speaking of Putin, he made a surprise visit to the occupied city of Mariupol overnight.
Mariupol, you'll remember, became known worldwide for the small number of Ukrainian forces who refused to surrender at the steel plant called Azovstal.

Mariupol was also where a theater filled with civilians was bombed, despite the Russian words for children being placed outside...

You can still see the Russian word for ‘children’ visible from the air

Putin’s visit to Mariupol can be seen as defiance after an International Criminal Court warrant was issued for his arrest:
The Kremlin says Vladimir Putin visited Mariupol, the Ukrainian city Russia’s invading army razed to the ground, overnight by helicopter.
This is a show of defiance after the ICC arrest warrant – Ukraine says 1,000 of the 14,700 children Russia abducted are from Mariupol.

Stay safe out there, all.
Today's dog of war is this one who was guarding the warehouse, the 53rd brigade's former HQ.
10/10 pup but 0/10 guard dog, did not bark when strangers like us walked into the warehouse complex
... or maybe he just had a good feeling about us

Adding this to connect an inadvertently broken thread!
Ruslan told us he heard and saw anti-aircraft missiles being fired from the vicinity of the complex while the area was under Russian occupation.
It was the final thing we needed to write our story on the 53rd being back in Ukraine after its deadly 2014 actions.
