Thanks to censorship and spambots Twitter is overwhelmingly pro-Ukraine. In a reaction most pro-Russian voices can be found on Telegram. The pro-Ukrainian voices in Telegram lack the depth of their pro-Russian colleagues: while every battle field win or loss(!) is immediately discussed on the pro-Russian sites the pro-Ukrainian restrict themselves mostly to high level politics.

Telegram offers the option to translate languages. See here for a manual on how to set that up.
Youtube offers some option for translation too. You should first enable subtitles. That will produce subtitles in the language that is spoken. Then you can go in the Youtube settings and select your language and automatic translation will take place. This is a rather buggy process: speech recognition is far from perfect. And sometimes you see for a long time no text and then suddenly ten lines will be displayed at once.

Berry = Jagodnoye
Harvest = Urozhayne
Nuts = Orekhov
Matchmaking = Svatovo
Flint = Kremannaya
The great housewarming = Velikaya Novoselka
Orekhov = Nuts
Zala (a kind of Russian drone) translates as room or hall
Orlan (a kind of Russian drone) translates as eagle
Town names that are very different between Russian and Ukrainian

Ugledar = Vugledar

Krasnoe = Ivanovskoye
Zaliznoe = Artemovo
New York = Novgorod
Pirovo = Pivnichnoye
