Ukraine: Russian army slows pace of offensive

The Russian army has slowed down the pace of the offensive in Ukraine, the Ukrainian armed forces report for the second day in a row. However, the army is still trying to make an advance.

Ukraine still has the capital Kiev and other cities under its own control. The information is confirmed by British intelligence. Russia does not share much information about the raid, but on Sunday it acknowledged for the first time that there were deaths and injuries on the Russian side.

Russia and Ukraine are expected to negotiate the war for the first time on Monday, without preconditions. During those talks, Russia will continue its offensive in Ukraine, which has now entered its fifth day.
