Russian forces have made no major gains in the last 24 hours, despite increased activity, UK intelligence says.

And Moscow has yet to establish full control of either air or sea, the British update says.

Russia, however, claims a range of successes as its air force targeted multiple Ukrainian military facilities overnight.

More civilians could leave the devastated southern city of Mariupol, via a planned humanitarian corridor - though these have failed in the past.

Russian forces have resumed attempts to storm the huge steel plant in the city that's the last bastion of resistance there, Ukraine says.

Earlier, a video was published appearing to show women and children sheltering in a bunker under the steel plant.

Quatsch.
These dubious "news" videos from shady sources are of little, if any, worth.They represent an offensive in the media battlefield at best. The question is who runs this offensive.

At the time I type this CNN and others report of heavy attacks on Azovstal/Mariupol after Putin soek days ago said instead of assaultig it it shpould be sealed of so that "not a single fly could escape". Obviously he changed his mind and the Russian now try to storm it nevertheless.
Source for claims that the Russian attacks have been going on: Ukraine, three hours ago.

You know what a swine this Patrick Lancaster is?

I wasn't aware in that amount of detail so thanks for that Kai :up:

Six people have been killed, emergency services say, after an apartment block in the city of Odesa was hit by missiles.

Russia is "trying to spread terror" in the southern port city by targeting it with rocket fire, says a Ukrainian official.

Meanwhile, officials in the devastated southern city of Mariupol say a planned evacuation of civilians has not happened.

The Ukrainian military claims to have "eliminated" two more Russian generals during fighting in the south-east.

After denying civilians to leave Mariupol, Russia attacks this city again, surely to fight "the flies that cannot escape?" (seems Putin needs his daily "Mariupol conquered" show).

All comes from the Kremlin for over 100 years is distortion of reality

Ukraine is reporting another two Russian generals killed in an overnight airstrike on a Kherson region command center. If confirmed, this would take the total to 10 Russian generals killed so far in just two months of war in Ukraine. No army can function for long with such losses.

What did Nazis achieve when they occupied Europe? Everyone hated them. And the second and third generations, who are not even to blame, feel their guilt. The Russians will achieve the same.

It will take some time to make the world to believe and "accept" Russia again.

I presume that Putin & Co has to leave the scene before this happens.

There is one big difference between how Ukrainians and many well-wishing Westerners expect Russia’s war to end.

Some in the West hope for an end to hostilities, whatever the terms. Ukrainians know that only victory will bring long-lasting peace.
