Twenty people have been injured in overnight Russian attacks in Kharkiv and Odessa, Ukraine. The attacks involved a combination of Russian missiles and 20 drones, reportedly provided by Iran. Tensions between Ukraine and Russia have escalated, with Russian President Vladimir Putin threatening Ukraine's statehood, claiming that its existence will soon be questioned. Ukrainian officials have accused Russia of seeking conquest, annihilation, destruction, and murder.
Reports from the battlefield in Ukraine reveal a somber reality as the country's future hangs in the balance. In the midst of bitter cold, Ukrainian artillery units are given orders to engage. Equipped with a US-provided N-777 gun, the soldiers work swiftly and diligently, firing rounds toward Russian positions. However, a significant challenge they face is ammunition shortages. According to the commander, the deficit has worsened, with only 20 to 30 shells available per day compared to the previous 50 to 60 in a different area. The limited resupply truck provides insufficient rounds, and the cessation of US military aid poses the potential for even more significant difficulties in the future.
