Ukraine Lost More than 31,000 Troops Since Russia's Invasion, President Zelensky Reveals | Oneindia
Ukrainian President Zelenskyy disclosed that around 31,000 Ukrainian troops have died since Russia's invasion began two years ago, marking the first public acknowledgment of military casualties.
Amidst ongoing conflict, Ukraine faces ammunition shortages, prompting urgent calls for international aid.
Defense Minister Umerov highlighted delayed military support's lethal impact, emphasizing the need for timely assistance to counter Russian aggression and protect lives and territory.
In defiance of Russia's nuclear threats, Lithuania remains steadfast in its commitment to dispatch soldiers for a training mission in Ukraine, as stated by Lithuanian Prime Minister Ingrida Simonyte in an interview with the Financial Times published on Wednesday. Simonyte's remarks come in the wake of the Russian Defense Ministry's declaration of preparations for tactical nuclear weapons exercises, citing Western "threats and provocations." Addressing concerns over potential Russian reactions, Simonyte emphasised that succumbing to such fears would paralyse action, highlighting the recurring spectre of nuclear threats. She reiterated Lithuania's resolve to support Ukraine with troops despite the risks.
