Ukraine said Russia had unleashed a fresh barrage of missiles Saturday, killing at least 14 people, as Britain became the first Western country to offer it the heavy tanks it has long been seeking.

The British move drew a swift reaction from Moscow, which warned it would only "intensify" the conflict.

Ukrainian Governor Serhiy Haidai pointed out that the progress of the Ukrainian counterattack in the eastern Lugansk region is being slowed by bad weather and strong resistance from Russian forces.

"Ukrainian offensive operations continue to place pressure on Russian forces both in the north-east and in the Kherson region in the south. However, Russia continues to give high priority to its own offensive operations in the central Donbas sector, especially near the town of Bakhmut", the report specifies.

More than 1.200 militants were liquidated in 24 hours, the Ministry of Defense of Russia announced.

Croatian military analyst from the Faculty of Political Sciences, Robert Bari says that attempts to seize Donetsk have stalled for the last seven days, after it seemed that the Russians would still have a greater advance towards Bakhmut.
