UKRAINE
Ukraine Krieg - Situationsbericht Tag 110
June 13, 2022 -
Russische Truppen haben Brücken über den Siversky Donets Fluss gesprengt, die Severodonetsk mit der Schwesterstadt Lysychansk verbinden. Damit wird die eventuelle Evakuierung von Zivilisten verhindert und ukrainischen Truppen sind isoliert.
Severodonetsk has become the epicentre of the battle for control over Ukraine's eastern region of Donbas. Parts of the city have been pulverized in some of the bloodiest fighting since the Kremlin unleashed its invasion on Feb 24.
Meanwhile, President Zelensky has called for modern missile defence systems, saying more than 2,600 cruise missiles have landed in Ukraine since the start of the war.
The call comes as Amnesty International has acused Russia of killing hundreds of civilians in the north-eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv using indiscriminate shelling and widely-banned cluster munitions.
