Russia-Ukraine war: Fire at Rostov warehouse as UN warns of ‘deteriorating’ nuclear power plant safety

The strategically important crossing was obliterated in a surgical strike shown on video footage shared by the Commander of Ukrainian Air Force Mykola Oleshchuk on Sunday.

As many as 5,000 Ukrainian soldiers are taking part in the incursion into Russian territory that began almost two weeks ago, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Russia, meanwhile, ramped up pressure in eastern Ukraine, claiming to have captured another village just a few kilometers from the Ukrainian-held logistics hub of Pokrovsk.

Ukrainian forces have destroyed a another key Russian bridge as the forces work around the clock to repel attacks from Moscow.
