Russia Sentences Alexei Gorinov for Speaking Against Moscow’s Military Offensive | Dawn News English

Ukraine’s military is bolstering its eastern defenses as Russian forces escalate their attacks. Army Chief Oleksandr Syrskii reinforced positions in Donetsk with reserves and equipment. Meanwhile, over 500 bodies of Ukrainian soldiers were returned from the region. Social media captured a fire at Russia's Atlas Oil Depot in Rostov. President Zelenskyy appointed Major-General Mykhailo Drapatyi as commander of land forces, stressing military reforms. Despite these efforts, Ukraine has lost 40% of the territory it briefly seized in Russia’s Kursk region, with analysts warning of manpower shortages across the 1,000km frontline. Kyiv residents are coping with power outages after Russian strikes on energy infrastructure affected over a million households. Russia has also hinted at resuming nuclear weapons tests, citing hostile U.S. policies.
