Ukraine, final siege of Donbass: missiles on Kharkiv and Mykolaiv

The battle for the conquest of Donbass intensifies in the 55th day of war between Ukraine and Russia. During the night, sirens blew almost all over the country. Several explosions were heard in Mykolaiv, east of Odessa, as three people were killed and 15 injured, including a 14-year-old, in the bombing of the city of Kharkiv in eastern Ukraine, according to Ukrainian officials. “The missiles fell right in front of houses, in children’s playgrounds and near humanitarian aid centers,” said the governor of the region, Oleh Syneyhubov, who accused the Russian army of attacking civilians. The city of Kreminna is “unfortunately under the control of the Russian orcs”, denounced the governor of the Luhansk region, Sergei Haidai, while the head of the military administration of the city, Oleksandr Dunets, reported that “fighting continues in the suburbs” . Four people died, killed by Russian shots, while trying to escape, the Ukrainian army said. Kreminna is located about fifty kilometers northeast of Kramatorsk, the capital of Donbass. Ukrainian forces hit a Russian village on the border. This was reported by the governor of the Belgorod province, Vyacheslav Gladkov, claiming that one person was injured. In recent days, Russia has repeatedly denounced Russian attacks across the border. At 3.45 pm Italian time, US President Joe Biden will have a new video conference call with the leaders of allied and partner countries to discuss support for Ukraine. This is what we read on the agenda of the White House.
