The Ukrainian army is now in control of several key cities in the east, and they are continuing to push forward. This is the farthest they have been into separatist-held territory since the war began. The Russian government is denying that they are providing any support to the separatists, but it is clear that they are heavily involved in the conflict. The international community has been largely supportive of Ukraine in this conflict. The United States and European Union have provided financial and military assistance to the Ukrainian government.

This divide has only grown stronger in recent months as the fighting in the east of the country has intensified. There are reports that the Ukrainian army is struggling to deal with the pro- Russian separatists, who are well-armed and have significant support from Russia. The Ukrainian government has accused Russia of supplying the separatists with weapons and equipment, which has helped them to gain an advantage in the fighting. The pro- Russian separatists have made significant gains in recent weeks, and there are fears that they may soon take control of the whole of the east of the country.

2- More than 9,000 people have been killed in the
conflict since it began in April 2014, according
to the UN. - Since the outbreak of hostilities between Russia
and Ukraine in April 2014, over 9,000 people
have been killed in the conflict, according to
the UN. The vast majority of these casualties
have been civilians, caught in the crossfire
between the two warring sides. The death toll
has continued to climb despite a number of
ceasefires and diplomatic efforts to bring about
a peaceful resolution to the conflict. The most
recent attempt at a truce, brokered by France
and Germany, collapsed in February this year.
Much of the fighting has taken place in the
eastern Ukrainian region of Donetsk, where
Ukrainian government forces are pitted against
Russian-backed separatists. The conflict has
displaced over 1.6 million people, many of whom
have fled to neighbouring countries such as
Russia and Belarus. The humanitarian situation in
the conflict zone is dire, with access to basic
necessities like food, water and electricity
often cut off. This has particularly affected
those living in besieged areas, where fighting
has made it impossible for aid organizations to
reach them. The conflict has also taken a heavy
toll on Ukraine's economy, with the country's
currency, the hryvnia, losing over half its value
since 2014. There is no end in sight to the
conflict, with both sides dug in and unwilling
to make the concessions necessary for a lasting
peace. As the death toll continues to rise, it
is clear that the only losers in this conflict
are the innocent civilians caught in the middle. - Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has accused
Russia of "direct and open aggression" after the
Russian navy seized Ukrainian ships in the Black
Sea. - On Sunday, Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko
accused Russia of "direct and open aggression"
after the Russian navy seized Ukrainian ships in
the Black Sea. The incident occurred just days
after a meeting between the two leaders in which
they discussed the ongoing conflict in eastern
Ukraine. Poroshenko said that the Russian navy
had fired on and seized three Ukrainian ships,
injuring six crew members. He also said that
Russia had prevented Ukrainian ships from
leaving their berths in the port of Sevastopol,
on the Crimean peninsula. "Direct and open
aggression has been committed against Ukraine by
regular Russian troops," Poroshenko said in a
statement. "I consider it as a provocation aimed
at igniting a new stage of the conflict in the
Azov-Black Sea basin." Poroshenko also said that
he would put the Ukrainian armed forces on full
alert and
3- would call a meeting of the country's national
security and defense council. He also called on
Western leaders to provide "practical assistance"
to Ukraine. The Russian navy said in a statement
that it had seized the Ukrainian ships because
they had entered Russian territorial waters and
had refused to obey orders to stop. The navy also
said that the Ukrainian ships had violated the
rules of navigation and had endangered the safety
of shipping in the area. The incident comes at a
time when tensions between Russia and Ukraine
are already high because of the conflict in
eastern Ukraine. The conflict began in 2014
after Russia annexed the Crimean peninsula from
Ukraine. In eastern Ukraine, pro- Russian
separatists have been fighting Ukrainian
government forces for control of the Donetsk and
Luhansk regions. More than 10,000 people have
been killed in the conflict, and it has
displaced more than 1.6 million people. - Russia says the ships were breaching its
territorial waters and has released video
footage it says shows the Ukrainian vessels
sailing in the wrong direction. - Russia has said that the Ukrainian ships were
breaching its territorial waters, and has
released video footage which it says shows the
Ukrainian vessels sailing in the wrong
direction. Russia has accused the Ukrainian ships
of entering its waters without prior permission,
and has accused them of failing to respond to
Russian requests to stop. The Ukrainian
government has denied these allegations, and has
said that its ships were in international waters
when they were intercepted by the Russian navy.
The incident has caused tensions to increase
between the two countries, and there is now a
risk of further escalation. - The incident has led to a further deterioration
in relations between the two countries, which
are already at a low over the conflict in
Ukraine. - The latest incident between Russia and Ukraine
has led to an even greater deterioration in
their relationship. This was already quite low
due to the conflict in Ukraine, but this latest
event has made things even worse. It is not clear
exactly what happened, but it seems that Russia
opened fire on a Ukrainian navy vessel, injuring
several sailors. - Ukraine has called this a "flagrant act of
aggression", and has demanded that Russia
release the sailors it has detained. Russia, for
its part, insists that the Ukrainian ship was in
its waters and that it was acting in
self-defense. It has also accused Ukraine of
provoking the incident. Whatever the truth of the
matter, it is clear that relations
4- between the two countries are now at an all-time
low. This is bad news for the people of both
countries, as well as for the stability of the
region as a whole. - NATO has condemned Russia's actions and called
for de-escalation. - NATO has strongly condemned Russia's actions in
Ukraine and called for an immediate
de-escalation of the situation. NATO Secretary
General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said that Russia's
intervention in Ukraine violates the country's
sovereignty and territorial integrity, and
called on Russia to withdraw its forces
immediately. "Russia must stop its aggression
against Ukraine and Russia comply with its
international obligations," he said. NATO has
also called on Russia to respect Ukraine's
sovereignty and territorial integrity, and to
stop its military escalation in the country. NATO
Commander General Philip Breedlove said that
Russia's actions are a "direct challenge to the
international order and security that we have
cherished since the end of the Cold War". He also
called on Russia to "cease its aggression" and
to "de-escalate the situation immediately". - NATO's condemnations of Russia's actions come as
tensions between the two countries continue to
rise. On Saturday, Russia deployed additional
troops and military equipment to Crimea, further
increasing its military presence in the region.
This came just days after Russia announced that
it was withdrawing from a key international arms
control treaty. The situation in Ukraine remains
highly volatile, and it is clear that the crisis
is far from over. NATO's condemnations of
Russia's actions are an important step in
ensuring that the country does not continue its
aggression unchecked. - Russia has placed its military on high alert in
the wake of the incident. - Since the incident in which a Russian military
plane was shot down by Turkey, Russia has placed
its military on high alert. The Russian Ministry
of Defense has released a statement saying that
it is taking measures to ensure the safety of its
troops and assets in Syria. It is also reported
that Russia has canceled all leave for its
soldiers and has increased security at all of
its military bases. The increase in tensions
between Russia and Turkey has also led to an
increase in tensions between the two countries'
respective allies. The United States has called
for calm and urged both sides to de-escalate the
situation. NATO has also issued a statement
saying that it is closely monitoring the
situation. The incident has created a significant
rift between Russia and Turkey, two countries
which had been working together relatively well
in recent years. It remains to
5be seen how this incident will affect the already
fragile relationship between the two
countries. The situation in Ukraine is dire,
with violence flaring up between pro-Russian
rebels and the Ukrainian military on a daily
basis. The death toll is rising, and there seems
to be no end in sight to the conflict. Russia is
supporting the rebels, while the Ukrainian
government is receiving help from the West. With
both sides heavily armed and dug in, it seems
that the only way out of this conflict is through
negotiations.
