Ukraine war live updates: 'New phase of war' as Russia's offensive in east begins
The Ukrainian military’s General Staff said Tuesday that Russian forces are focusing their efforts on taking full control over the Donetsk and Luhansk regions in the east.
Ukrainian President Zelensky accuses China of sabotaging peace talks by urging other countries not to attend. Reports indicate that Ukrainian forces fired U.S-made weapons into Russia's Belgorod, supported by footage of HIMARS, a rocket system. The U.S recently lifted a ban on using its ammunition in Moscow. Russian sources confirm Ukrainian strikes, amid intensified Russian offensives on Ukrainian territories.

Dutch Defense Minister Kajsa Ollongren announced that the Netherlands will allow Ukraine full autonomy in using the 24 F-16 fighter jets it is set to receive, according to an interview with Politico. This stance diverges from Belgium's approach, which has placed usage restrictions on its own contribution of 30 fighter jets to the Ukrainian military.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has vowed to exert pressure on Israel to halt the ongoing conflict in Gaza, as he addressed the Shangri-La Dialogue security conference in Singapore on Sunday. The visit comes nearly eight months into the protracted Israel-Hamas war. In his speech, Zelensky affirmed Israel's right to self-defence against "Hamas terrorists" while expressing deep concerns about the severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, which has been under heavy assault by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

In the Volgograd region of southern Russia, an oil refinery became the target of a drone attack believed to originate from Ukraine. Governor Andrey Bocharov confirmed reports of a brief fire resulting from the attack but assured the public of successful containment and no casualties. The incident underscores a recent surge in drone attacks on Russian energy facilities, allegedly in retaliation for Moscow's strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure. Meanwhile, Russia's defence ministry announced the interception and destruction of drones and ballistic missiles launched by Ukraine, further escalating tensions. Additionally, the city of Donetsk in eastern Ukraine experienced shelling from Ukrainian forces, resulting in civilian injuries, as tensions between the two nations continue to escalate.

Russian forces have ousted Ukrainian troops from two vital locations in Kharkov Region and Donbass, marking significant gains in the ongoing conflict. Moscow's 'Western' group seized Kotlyarovka village near Kupyansk, enhancing access to Kharkov or aiding Donbass operations. Simultaneously, the 'Center' group secured Solovyovo village near Donetsk. These gains reflect Russia's escalating dominance as Ukrainian forces grapple with strategic challenges.

Ukrainian forces have reportedly launched multiple missiles targeting civilian infrastructure in the Russian city of Lugansk, according to regional head Leonid Pasechnik. The attack, occurring late Tuesday night, resulted in significant damage, including a large blaze at an oil depot. Pasechnik suggested that the missiles used in the assault were likely Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) provided by Washington. Emergency services swiftly responded to the scene to contain the fire and provide assistance. Five individuals working at the facility were hospitalised with moderate injuries. The incident marks a concerning escalation in tensions and underscores the urgent need for diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the situation and prevent further violence.
