As the battle rages on in Soledar, air-raid alerts have been activated in all regions of Ukraine. Russian missiles fly over the skies of the whole country, even reaching the westernmost areas .

Ukrainska Pravda reports it. Explosions are reported in the Kiev region and in the western territories of Khmelnytskyi, Ternopil, Ivano-Frankivsk and Vinnytsia. Bombings in Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk and in the southern regions of Mykolaiv and Odessa.

Meanwhile , the fierce battles continue in Soledar, in Donetsk , both in and around the city. Ukraine, regional military chief Pavlo Kyrilenko explained, is in control of the situation: « Soledar is under our control. However, fighting is going on because the enemy is trying to advance in different directions . The Russians are suffering huge losses, the streets are littered with the bodies of Wagner group mercenaries and regular servicemen of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation,” he said, adding that “the front line is under shelling.”

From the Russian front, on the other hand, they let it be known that hundreds of Ukrainian soldiers have died. But on the western outskirts of the city, where very intense battles are going on, the flag of Ukraine still flies .

Meanwhile , British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak announced to Zelensky "the United Kingdom's ambition to increase support for Ukraine, including through the supply of Challenger 2 tanks and additional artillery systems" , reports the Downing Street spokesman.

The sending of tanks, declares the Russian embassy in London, "will lead to an escalation of hostilities in Ukraine and new victims, Great Britain is increasingly involved in the conflict and neglects the lives of Ukrainian citizens" .
