Ukraine official says Russia strikes 'absolute terrorism'

The Hindu  

Russian missiles pounded Ukraine's second-largest city early on July 11, local administrator said, describing the attacks as “absolute terrorism.” Governor of the Kharkiv region Oleh Syneihubov said on Telegram that the Russian forces only hit civilian targets in three missile strikes on the northeastern city. Russian forces carried out five missile strikes and four massive rounds of shelling in the are, Serhiy Haidai said. The Luhansk and Donetsk regions together make up Ukraine's eastern industrial heartland known as Donbas, where separatist rebels have fought Ukrainian forces since 2014. The British said: “The lack of scheduled breaks from intense combat conditions is highly likely one of the most damaging of the many personnel issues the Russian is struggling to rectify amongst the deployed force.” Also on Monday, the main Russian gas pipeline to Germany began a 10-day closure for maintenance amid European fears Moscow may not turn the flow back on after its completion.
