Ukraine Daily Update | Day 631
Video Summary
I’m reporting the 631st day of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. A disturbing piece of news emerged today, as a top-ranked Russian general, Vladimir Sido, was found dead in his home in Russia, alongside his wife. The cause of death is unknown, with no windows or signs of forced entry or exit. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s military has been dealing with a surge in Russian attacks, with over 1,300 Russian “orcs” (a term used to describe Russian soldiers) estimated to have been killed in the past 24 hours. This is largely attributed to the intensification of Russian attacks in various areas, including Donbas and Kherson. The Russian military has been suffering significant losses, with Ukraine’s artillery and Western-supplied weapons taking a heavy toll. Furthermore, an ammo storage facility was seen producing bright lights, loud noises, and high temperatures, a likely sign of an accident or explosion. Additionally, Russian-backed forces launched 18 Iranian-made strike drones and a missile at Ukrainian cities, with 16 drones and the missile intercepted by Ukraine’s air defense. As if that weren’t enough, a Russian war criminal was caught teaching children in a school how to kill Ukrainians, before getting drunk and beating up his neighbor’s wife and family. It’s clear that Ukrainian forces are working hard to push back against the Russian invasion, and it’s a dire reminder of the brutality and chaos caused by Russia’s actions.
