New embargo on Russia
Meanwhile, the European Union has announced a new embargo on Russia. It has been announced that Russia will ban oil imports by the end of this year. Tyler Gustra, a professor of political science at the University of Nottingham, called the new embargo a “half move.” “Hungary and Slovakia can continue to buy Russian crude oil in six months,” he said. “As a result, Putin is going to see billions of euros in bank accounts every day. He can use that money for the war in Ukraine. ”
Russia’s intense offensive in eastern Ukraine has killed 21 innocent people.
The Russian war on Ukraine reached its 70th day yesterday. Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Sumihal has said that his country has received $ 4.73 billion (approximately Rs. 35,475 billion) in international financial assistance since the start of the war.
Russia launched a missile attack on three substations in the city of Lviv on the Polish border last night. As a result, parts of the city were plunged into darkness. Water supply was also affected.
Firefighters battled and extinguished the blaze at substations that had been set on fire by a missile attack.
Russia yesterday hit hard on targets in eastern Ukraine. The Russian military says a maritime and air-to-air missile has destroyed the power structure of five railway stations.
Ukrainian officials say 21 civilians have been killed in an attack in the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine.
Russian Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov said the attack on rail infrastructure was a move to disrupt Western arms supplies.
Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has said that Western countries are filling Ukraine with weapons.
Russia continues to attack Azov Steel, which is still uncaptured in the city of Mariupol. It is reported that 500 people are staying inside the plant with injuries and 200 of them are in critical condition. Efforts are underway to evacuate the hundreds of people trapped inside the bunker at the plant.
The mayor said more people were leaving the city of Mariupol with the help of the UN and the Red Cross.
Belarus, on the Russian side of the Ukraine war, is launching large-scale military exercises that have caused new excitement.
Reports say that Russian forces chased Ukrainian forces out of Kharkiv.
