Secretary of State Antony Blinken is currently in Ukraine's capital, Kiev, for his first visit since Congress approved a significant military aid package last month. This visit is crucial as Ukraine faces a critical point in its conflict with Russia, with reports indicating it is one of the most perilous times since the war began.
Recent developments show Moscow's military advancing into Ukraine's northeast, seizing territory, towns, and closing in on the city of Kharkiv. Ukrainian forces, facing shortages of weapons and ammunition, are putting up a fierce resistance, while thousands of civilians are fleeing the violence.
