Relentless attacks on Ukrainian positions defending the city of Chasiv Yar are disrupting troop rotations and deliveries of supplies, soldiers said.
Relentless Russian attacks on Ukrainian positions defending the strategically important eastern city of Chasiv Yar are disrupting troop rotations and the delivery of some supplies, soldiers in the area have said.
For Ukrainian soldiers defending the eastern Donetsk region, the Russian ground assaults and aerial barrages allow little respite after more than two years of war. Holding Chasiv Yar is crucial. The town, highly sought-after due to its strategic location and elevated position but now largely in ruins, lies to the west of neighbouring Bakhmut, which was captured by Russia last year after a 10-month battle.
The US is expected to announce on Tuesday that it is sending an additional 150 million dollars in critically needed munitions to Ukraine, and Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala said the first shipment of ammunition under a Czech initiative has been delivered to Ukraine. Elsewhere, the Kremlin’s forces kept up their barrages of civilian infrastructure with three aerial strikes in the north-eastern Kharkiv region on Tuesday, local officials said. Nobody was injured.
