Live reporting by Faith Ridler. Updates from Alex Crawford in eastern Ukraine and Diana Magnay in MoscowSteven Pifer, an analyst and former US ambassador to Ukraine, has insisted Vladimir Putin"does not want nuclear war" - as he gave his insight on the threat.
He added that while nuclear talk is frightening, Western leaders need to"consider what happens if they give in to Putin's veiled threats". The blasts come a day after Russia accused Ukraine of the Crimea bridge explosion, claiming this was an"act of terrorism". "The distinct feeling here is that Putin is ramping up assaults after Kerch bridge explosion," Justin Spike said.
It came in the 49th episode of Ukraine War Diaries, which tells the story of the conflict in often uplifting, but sometimes hard-to-hear accounts from the ground. "They want the power, they don't care about the people, they don't care a single little bit about you. They just use you and they will let you die without a single sentiment.Russia gives 'high priority' to Donbas region - as Ukraine continues to advance in the north-east
"However, Russia continues to give high priority to its own offensive operations in the central Donbas sector, especially near the town of Bakhmut. Oleksandr Starukh said:"As a result of a missile attack in the centre of Zaporizhzhia, a multi-storey residential building was destroyed again.On Sunday, a separate strike in the occupied city killed at least 13 people.Zaporizhzhia is one of four Ukrainian regions Russia claims voted to join the Russian Federation in referendums widely described as a sham.
Ukrainian officials have confirmed that 13 people were killed in an attack on Zaporizhzhia overnight into Sunday. A Russian missile attack struck an apartment block and other residential buildings in the southeastern city. Vladimir Putin, facing rare direct criticism at home, accused Ukraine special forces of carrying out the strike on the bridge and branded the act"terrorism".
Petrakov's team have become a symbol of Ukrainian national pride, and he hopes that, if the war is still raging next year, his players can provide encouragement to those fighting to defend and regain territory.
