Russian drones attacked Ukrainian cities and missiles blasted an apartment block, but a months-long ground assault on the eastern town of Bakhmut could be stalling in the face of fierce resistance, according to Ukrainian and British military experts
Russian forces unleashed a wave of air strikes in the north and south of Ukraine as President Vladimir Putin bid farewell on Wednesday to Chinese leader Xi Jinping following a two day visit to Moscow by his fellow autocrat and "dear friend".
There was still a danger, however, that the Ukrainian garrison in Bakhmut could be surrounded, Britain's defence ministry said in its intelligence update on Wednesday.In a show of defiance, President Volodymyr Zelenskiy's office released a video of him handing out medals to troops it said were near the Bakhmut front line.
"The enemy continues to conduct offensive operations, suffering major casualties, losing significant amount of weapons and military equipment," said the General Staff of the Ukraine Army said in a Thursday morning report. The Ukraine military said that 660 Russian troops, 13 tanks, one air defence system, 11 armoured personnel carriers were destroyed in a past day.During Wednesday night, air raid sirens blared across the capital Kyiv and parts of northern Ukraine, and the military said it had shot down 16 of 21 Iranian-made Shahed suicide drones.

Ukraine, Russia trade claims after blast rocks Crimean townRussian and Ukrainian officials on Tuesday gave conflicting accounts of what appeared to be a brazen attack late Monday on Russian cruise missiles being transported by train in the occupied Ukrainian Crimean Peninsula. A Ukrainian military spokesperson indicated that Kyiv was behind the explosion that reportedly destroyed multiple Kalibr cruise missiles near the town of Dzhankoi in northern Crimea, while stopping short of directly claiming responsibility. Natalia Humeniuk, the spokeswoman for Ukraine’s southern operational command, described the strike as a signal to Russia that it should leave the Black Sea peninsula it illegally took from Ukraine in 2014.
