I've also deleted my 13-year-old Twitter account. Now, I'm looking for alternative, reliable sources for information about the war that are open and not dependent on Twitter/X.

Some examples I've found (note: I have not followed all of these accounts for a long time, so use your judgment when evaluating them wrt reliability/accuracy):

Do you have others to recommend? Thanks!

That's fair, I think we're all trying to understand this new Fediverse thing. I understand that the underlying ActivityPub protocol is the same, but people tend to use these frontends quite differently. For example, I can't downvote a Lemmy post in Elk (the software I use to follow other people). I also anticipate Lemmy posts to be more "community-oriented" in the way information is surfaced (like Reddit), whereas Mastodon is more focused on following a person or organization (like Twitter). There's no wrong way to use the technology, but I do find the use cases helpful in organizing my expectations.
