Drone footage obtained by The Associated Press shows months of Russian artillery pounding have devastated a strategic city in eastern Ukraine
Months of relentless Russian artillery pounding have devastated a strategic city in eastern Ukraine, new drone footage obtained by The Associated Press has shown, with barely a building left intact, homes and municipal offices charred, and a town that once had a population of 12,000 now left deserted. The footage shows the community of Chasiv Yar — which is set amid green fields and woodland — pounded into an apocalyptic vista.
Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg acknowledged Monday that the delayed delivery of allied countries' military aid to Ukraine had left the country at the mercy of the Kremlin's bigger and better-equipped forces. Ukraine and its Western partners are racing to deploy critical new military aid that can help check the slow and costly but steady Russian advance across eastern areas, as well as thwart drone and missile attacks. ___ Follow AP’s coverage of the war in Ukraine at https://apnews.
