The situation in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv is becoming more and more threatening!
By Paul Ronzheimer and Nils Kottmann
Kiev’s mayor Vitali Klitschko warns in BILD: “We must expect a Russian offensive at any time, the tanks are only about 20 kilometers from the city.”
It was only in the afternoon that the army of Kremlin despot Vladimir Putin (69) fired two rockets at the capital’s television tower – five people died and five others were injured.
BILD Vice Paul Ronzheimer reports from Kyiv: “We assume that this could be the start of a major attack on the capital.”
64 km Russian convoy on the way to Kyiv
The fact is: the main Russian armed forces are currently on their way to Kyiv. This is confirmed by satellite images from the US company Maxar. Military trucks are lined up about 10 kilometers north of the capital. The convoy has now grown to a gigantic 64 kilometers: soldiers, ammunition, food.
But the invaders have problems. The convoy is stuck, it can’t go any further! After fierce battles with Ukrainian troops, the roads from the north towards Kyiv are impassable. Apparently there is a shortage of fuel.
