Ukraine reported a series of Russian attacks with Iranian-made Shahed-136 drones in the letest weeks. Iran says no to supplying the drones to Russia, while the Kremlin has not commented. It denies targeting civilians.
Speaking in his nightly video address, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said while there had been no “significant changes” on the front line, the “key hotspots in Donbas are [neighbouring towns] Soledar and Bakhmut, where very heavy fighting continues”.
He accused Russia of putting 2,000 “convicts” – some serving long sentences for serious crimes – on the battlefield.
“They are kept on the front not only with money but also with the promise of amnesty,” he said.
