Russian-Ukrainian war spotlight: Russia prepares a strike in Donbas, said Zelensky Ukraine
New Delhi: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the situation in the Donbas region was still very difficult to repeat that Russia built troops near the city of Mariupol surrounded.
“There will be a battle in front. We still have to go down the road that is very difficult to get everything we want,” he said.
The US also said that Russia focused its military efforts in the Donbas area which could mark “longer, longer conflicts”.
US President Joe Biden said that Russian colleagues Vladimir Putin might be “isolated” and can put some of his advisors under “home arrest”.
NATO warned that it did not see Russian pull-back troops in Ukraine and expect “additional offensive actions”.
The Ukrainian government has sent 45 buses to evacuate civilians from the city of Mariupol which are surrounded, where Russia expressed a local ceasefire after global protests over the suffering of civilians trapped by endless shootings.
