The Russian army bombed several fuel depots in Ukraine over the weekend. At least five people were wounded in the attack on the Lviv factory.
An adviser to the Ukrainian government said this was a new strategy for the Russian military. It will increasingly destroy fuel and food stores. The Ukrainian authorities are now trying to redistribute the reserves.
Ukrainian intelligence also announced that Russia intends to divide Ukraine. She said Moscow could no longer occupy the whole country, so it had to be divided now, like the Korean peninsula. After that, Moscow must control the East.
The leader of pro-Russian separatists in the Luhansk region announced that he wants to vote on “joining” Russia. The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry then declared that all “fake referendums” in the occupied territories are null and void. With such a referendum, Russia will further isolate itself.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has again criticized the United States for its reluctance to provide his country with combat aircraft.
“I spoke to the Mariupol fighters today. I am in constant contact with them. Their determination, heroism and resilience are amazing. I am grateful to each and every one of them. If only those who think about this for 31 days, how can they deliver dozens of planes and tanks, one percent have that courage “.
More and more people are desperately trying to escape from the besieged city of Mariupol. About ten kilometers to the east, in the village of Bizimeni, Russian authorities have set up tents that they say are providing humanitarian aid.
