West pledges further weapons for Ukraine with the first anniversary of the invasion eight days away
Kyiv — Russia battered Ukraine with multiple missile strikes as its troops sought to advance in the east, Kyiv said, while Western allies pledged even more military aid for an intended Ukrainian counter-offensive in the northern hemisphere spring.
“The enemy’s offensive continues in the east, with round-the-clock attacks,” Ukrainian deputy defence minister Hanna Malyar said. “The situation is tense.” Ukrainian military analysts said Russian troops had launched several unsuccessful attacks on villages to the north and south of Bakhmut over the past day. “Things are very difficult for our forces there as Russian troops are being sent into the area en masse,” analyst Oleh Zhdanov said.
