Russian forces release attacks on Bakhmut to regroup, Kiev says. Russian paramilitary group Wagner claimed responsibility for taking the city last week.
Kiev has sent the German government an official request for deliveries of air-to-ground cruise missiles, Taurus type with a range of at least 500 km. Hundreds of German civil servants working in particular in the education and culture sectors will have to leave Russia in the coming days at Moscow's request, a German government source told AFP. At least two people were killed and thirty wounded in a bombing by Russian armed forces in a clinic in Dnipro.
