Zelensky accuses Russia of “genocide” for “mass killings” in Donbas. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused Russia of “genocide” on Thursday for the deportation of citizens and “mass killings of civilians” in Donbas. In his regular late-night address, Zelensky said that the current Russian offensive “may leave the region uninhabited. They want to burn Popasna, Bakhmut, Lyman, Lysychansk and Severodonetsk to ashes. Like Volnovakha, like Mariupol.”
Kuleba, to the international community: “If you really care about Ukraine, send weapons, weapons and more weapons.” Ukraine’s Foreign Minister, Dmitro Kuleba, has assured that the situation in the east of the country is “much worse than people think”. In a live video broadcast on Twitter, Kuleba has assured that Ukraine urgently needs more weapons to fight Russian troops, who are focusing their efforts on the Donbas region, made up of the provinces of Lugansk and Donetsk, with the aim of seizing control of the cities of Severodonetsk and Lisichansk. “If you really care about Ukraine, send weapons, weapons and more weapons,” Kuleba insisted, addressing the international community.
