I generally have no use for Twitter.
Mostly to me, it's just a messy cluster of hash tags, ampersands, bad phonetic abbreviations, misspelling and poor grammar.
That being said, Christopher Miller of the Kyiv Post has a feed which is providing excellent and balanced coverage of the crisis in Ukraine.

Also the live feed has been excellent. It appears there is some sort of ongoing meeting of the Rada (Ukrainian parliament) as we speak.
