Ukraine update: ‘Limited to no progress’ for Russia; Zelenskyy addresses Congress tomorrow
Today saw “limited to no progress” by Russian ground forces, according to a Pentagon spokesman, though Russia continues to shell civilian population centers. While Ukrainian cities in the south of the country remain surrounded or under occupation, the situation in Kyiv appears more stable, with no Russian advancement and open Ukrainian supply lines.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hosted European Union leaders today, and will virtually address Congress tomorrow morning, where he is expected to again push the United States to intervene more directly in the conflict or, at the least, further expand weapons deliveries to his country.
Some of today’s key events:
- ‘Limited to no progress by Russian ground forces in achieving their objectives’
- ‘Kyiv’s wartime supply chain is remarkable’
- Congress prepares to virtually welcome Zelenskyy, find a path forward on COVID funding
- A losing Putin may be ready to settle for something less than everything
- Marina Ovsyannikova detained after anti-war protest on live Russian television
- Russian oligarchs’ yachts are being seized. What does Putin think he can seize from Jen Psaki?
- Is Fox News’ Russia propaganda now costing lives as the outlet announces death of beloved cameraman?
- ‘Biolabs’ boom shows that Russia’s disinformation networks are still functioning
