Russian troops are surrounding Kyiv
Video Summary
Russia has launched a fresh attack on Ukraine’s capital, Kiev, with active battles taking place around the city. The city is a key location, with the Russian army trying to surround it. Ukrainian forces have repelled Russian advances, resulting in a massive battle between Ukrainian infantry and Russian battalion tactical groups. Ukrainian forces have used precision artillery and Javelin missiles to great effect, with reported hits on Russian command posts and tanks. The use of civilian drones, such as the Bayraktar drone, has been instrumental in hitting Russian targets. The Russian army is struggling to make progress, with their troops low on motivation and morale. The situation is being made worse by the lack of support from Belarus, with President Lukashenko resisting Russian pressure to send troops to Ukraine. In an effort to bolster their efforts, Russia is now turning to Syria, promising payment of up to $3,000 a month to volunteers who will fight in Ukraine, a ploy likely to attract untrained and unprepared fighters.
