Live reporting by Olive Enokido-Lineham and Emily Mee. Updates from Deborah Haynes in Ukraine and Diana Magnay in MoscowRussian forces have shelled Ukraine's Sumy region nearly 30 times in less than two hours, according to the Ukrainian military. Dmytro Zhivytsky, the head of the Sumy regional state administration, said at least six homes were damaged and another four have been almost destroyed on two streets in Vorozhbyan.
Ukraine has legislation criminalising the act of collaboration, but the Kherson city council official is suspected of the slightly different crime of"assisting an aggressor state". Russia has lodged a formal protest with the Vatican over Pope Francis's latest condemnation of atrocities in Ukraine. He defended his usual reluctance to call out Vladimir Putin by name, saying it is clear that Ukraine is the"martyred" victim in the war.
In his new comments, he was likely trying to draw a line between those who follow"the Russian tradition" and allegedly more brutal Chechens and Buryats, when in fact Russian troops have been accused of war crimes regardless of their ethnicity. They will be joined by Queen Mathilde of Belgium, Queen Rania of Jordan and the Crown Princess Mary of Denmark as well as the First Lady of Sierra Leone.Increasing US involvement in the war in Ukraine will bring growing risks, Russian deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov has said.
Security and defence analyst Professor Michael Clarke describes them as a"battalion of infantry with around 500-600 men with all the other bits you need - artillery, engineers, etc". He adds that this also signals that when the Russians come back after Christmas with their"second offensive", he expects to see them with big brigades, not BTGs.The trial of a prominent Russian opposition figure who faces charges stemming from his criticism of the Kremlin's action in Ukraine has opened in Moscow.
Multiple Launch Rocket Systems and the other remains, were used by Russian troops for military strikes on the city. "China is willing to work with Russia to forge a closer energy partnership, promote clean and green energy development and jointly maintain international energy security and the stability of industry supply chains," Mr Xi reportedly said.
