Ukraine-Russia War: Ukraine Shells Residential Area in Russian City Near Border; Kyiv Hit by Iran-made Kamikaze Drones

News 18  

A residential building in the southern Russian city of Belgorod near the border with Ukraine was hit Thursday in shelling by Kyiv’s forces, the governor of the city said. The United Nations General Assembly overwhelmingly voted to condemn Russia’s annexation of parts of Ukraine, a move US President Joe Biden said sent a “clear message” to Moscow. The resolution “condemns the organisation by the Russian Federation of so-called referendums within the internationally recognized borders of Ukraine” and “the attempted illegal annexation” announced last month of four regions by President Vladimir Putin. Meanwhile on the ground, Ukraine says it liberated 5 villages as southern advance continues even as top US general says US and allies need to help Ukraine build comprehensive missile defense system.
